The Power of Yet: I Can't Do It Yet Growth Mindset Tracker
The small word "yet" can change how a student talks about a hard task, and this set helps you track that shift. These checklists give you a simple way to see growth mindset in action, from how a student reacts to challenges to whether they start using "yet" language on their own.
