Hi Jacky! During the class discussion, your group's blackboard with the "You're bad at math" crossed out was really memorable to me because I never realized the fact that I hear it a lot from friends and students. It really clicked and opened a door in my mind about how the type of simple statements we say can have such a big impact on our thought processes (also referencing Anne's lecture about growth mindset and the affects of different types of praise). I will definitely be more mindful of the things I say to students from now on! :)
