One of the more common problems we see in special education students at the high school level is that by the time they get to us, many of them have been struggling with their challenging learning disabilities for years, sometimes since elementary school. Student self-efficacy is rapidly dwinding in these students because they have tried so hard and had so many failures over the years that their motivation to continue trying to learn is disappearing. It's hard enough dealing with the challenges of adolescence and all the obstacles that come along with it, let alone the damaging residue of all the trials associate with Covid-19. My project is an educational effort to rekindle the fire that these students once possessed when they were young, when the world was their oyster, and they just "knew they could do what they put their mind to doing." For my language arts class, I intend to compile a project-based learning curriculum centered around growth mindset to help my students realize they can indeed "do hard things." My hope is that by the time they leave high school, they will be prepared to take on any challenge their life throws at them with the power of possiblities to accomplish anything they want to accomplish, and make the world a better place with this treasured knowledge they have acquired.
