Superflex and Learning FLEXIBLE THINKING - Secrets to a Growth Mindset: Episode 2


HELLO! I'm excited to introduce you to a new superhero this superhero is for your brain and will defeat those Unthinkable

thoughts that come up in your brain meet superflex and the unthinkables the unthinkables are things we have to

defeat so we have a flexible brain in any situation first we have Rock brain Rock brain usually appears when we are learning a

new skill he tells our brain we can't do it when Rock brain is there it's true the skill will be harder to learn and thus be more frustrating shucks with superflex we can defeat him by giving ourselves Grace when learning a new skill and learning to advocate for ourselves when we are being taught in a way that we just aren't getting making mistakes in life is expected and respected superflex understands this is the only way to get a stronger brain by practicing making those mistakes and learning and growing from them superflex can defeat that can't do attitude any day you can do it you might just need a little more time or a different approach to learning that skill next we have Glassman what does glass do when we drop it or smash it

it breaks and it's hard to put back

together

that is like our friendships and play

time if everyone is having fun and you

have a big unexpected reaction to

something that can ruin everyone's fun

and you can become a glass man

[Music]

superflex is very mindful in these

situations and is aware of small versus

big problems when there is a small

problem we can sort it out with our

words compromise and take turns

when someone starts to become unsafe

that is a bigger problem that could use

an adult to help at any time superflex

knows he may need an adult to help work

through those problems this helps

everyone stay having fun

the last Unthinkable that we are going

to talk about is energy Harry energy

Harry is in the yellow zone and is kind

of unexpected energy Harry is fun when

we are outside or playing a fun game

with friends it is unexpected to have a

lot of energy when we are trying to

learn or be in a quiet place

superflex knows this can be hard to keep

our bodies and brains calm and quiet

especially when we are bored out of our

minds but truth is there are a lot of

boring Parts about life and a lot of

really exciting ones

superflex knows this can be super hard

to keep our bodies and brain calm and

quiet it's especially when you have the

Wiggles one thing you could do is hug

yourself and you could squeeze your arms

you could squeeze your legs

this is something you can do sitting

down

you can also push on a table

by putting your hands on top of it and

applying pressure

another thing you can do is just to

Simply ask to stand

while someone is talking

awesome job I'm so proud of you for

learning how to work through our

emotions keep practicing and if you make

a mistake it's okay just remember to be

safe be kind and keep learning from your mistakes!
