Growth Mindset Questioning Strategy

In this resource, you'll find a quick list of growth mindset questioning prompts in order to help develop independence, resilience, and a willingness to ‘have a go’ at maths in your pupils.

Encourage your class to think flexibly about maths and beyond using a range of questions including 'Would anything else work?'.

These questions are perfect for pupils to use during group work, or to give to TAs to use during an intervention.
