You can't live a positive life with a negative mind!

This week in Rimu we are really focusing on writing quality blog comments. We are using Ralph and Patrick's blog post about their recent trip to Queenstown to inspire our commenting. They attend Christ the King School in Auckland and are one of our blogging schools. 

Today we talked about how to make our first sentence in our comment positive and thoughtful. Here's the first of three padlets we'll be sharing this week as we go on our improving our commenting journey! Any tips for us?

  4. Whether one call it 'positive habits of mind' or a 'growth mindset' there is one thing for sure: thinking positively, working hard and not dwelling on mistakes are all part of living a happy life and contributing to make the world a better place. It is great to see YMS students making positive contributions!
