Marvelous mindset

 Kia Ora! Welcome to my blog. This week, for reading, I have written a poem about what you feel when you have Fixed mindset and growth mindset. After you have read this, Please tell me in the comment section what you feel when you have Fixed mindset and when you have Growth mindset. I have worked a lot on this, so please comment!



GROWTH MINDSET



Every day my best I will try,

Not a single tear, nor a sigh.

To Growth mindset I will take heed,

But to Fixed mindset I have no need.

For Fixed mindset makes a horrible day,

Because of all the horrible things it does say,

But Growth mindset is ever so kind,

It leaves the mean words way behind.

 Growth mindset makes me feel,

Oh so happy I need to squeal,

And Growth mindset will never let in

The Fixed mindset who has bad times within,

Growth mindset will always make you feel enlightened,

But never, ever, frightened.



I hope you know a bit more about Growth mindset and Fixed mindset. Here is a few questions: 

When you fall over on you bike, do you usually have Fixed mindset or Growth mindset? 

When you feel Growth mindset, what do you think?  I can't do this  OR   I can do it even better if I try.

Please answer in the comment section. If you want to see another poem by me, I am going to post one about the war. Thanks for reading!

My poem - The War

  Hello again! Welcome to my blog. Today, I will post a poem that I wrote on ANZAC day. It is about war. I have imagined what it would've been like for the soldiers that had to go to war. I have also thought about what the soldiers would have been feeling. Here is a fact: In some wars, boys as young as 16 were sent to battle! I think that they probably would have felt very scared. Here is my poem!



The War


The War, The War,

What a beastly thing

The War, The War,

It ruined everything


The soldiers, the soldiers,

So full of power and heart,

The soldiers, the soldiers,

So young and smart


Training, training,

Then carted off to war,

Oh, dear,

They think it’s a terrible bore!


They march off to the battlefield

Raising their shining sword and shield

Rushing at the roaring enemy


People just a town from there

All put their books down to stare


The screeching sound of bomb and sirens

Warn them to duck underground,

To a secret annexe

All safe and sound


It does not, though, block out

The sound bombs again and again,

And on the battlefield it’s just insane


In other underground rooms

Kids would say,

“We hate it here! We want to come out!”

But the mother says not to,

There’s danger about


Finally, about half a decade later,

The war has ended.

Thousands were dead.

But some were only just mended.


We are lucky to have no war,

There is no way we want more!



It is a bit long, and I worked on it a lot. I hope you like it! Do you like writing poems? I hope you do! I have written some other poems. If I can, I will blog them! Please comment! I have written a poem about growth mindset above. Thanks for reading on my blog!
