We've been using Mindsets in the Classroom: Building a Culture of Success and Student Achievement in Schools by Mary Cay Ricci in our school and county. My school is also focusing on getting the students up and moving while learning. Then it dawned on me: I should combine the two and do a gallery walk/scavenger hunt!
The Growth Mindset Poster Gallery Walk / Scavenger Hunt starts with 10 growth mindset quotes.
Students walk around the room and answer questions about the posters. There is an answer key included to make the activity self-checking or for aid in use as a formative/summative assessment.
The second poster scavenger hunt focuses on the neuroscience behind having a growth mindset.
Some of the posters focus on how to strengthen the brain with food.
Other posters focus on the nerve and brain cells.

Students are again asked to take a gallery walk and answer questions about the posters.
The entire packet includes:
~10 growth mindset poster quotes, some by famous people
~A scavenger hunt student sheet and answer key for the quotes
~10 posters on how the brain works and how to strengthen it
~A scavenger hunt student sheet and answer key for the brain section of the scavenger hunt

Do you have any low-prep, fun activities to teach or reinforce growth mindset? I'd love to hear about them!

Thank you for your kind words! Kristy at http://kristybeardesigns.blogspot.com/?m=1
is responsible for the magic. She says she uses the watermark template that is built in to blogger and then a bunch of CSS code to get it just right.
