If you want a video that instantly grabs students' attention while teaching a powerful life skill, this one is a great choice. Being a Flexible Thinker, as presented by Whole Child Counseling, teaches children how to navigate life's everyday surprises by shifting from rigid to flexible thinking. Through clear, kid-friendly examples, such as canceled plans, changes in routine, or disagreements with friends, the video helps students see how adjusting their thoughts can reduce frustration and open the door to new solutions. It helps them understand that challenges can be handled in many ways and that remaining open and calm helps them work more effectively with others. The video concludes with interactive scenarios that enable students to practice identifying flexible thinking in real time, making it a valuable tool for building problem-solving skills and resilience, and for promoting positive behavior in the classroom. If your district blocks YouTube, then the video may not be viewable.

Have students rewrite short "stuck thinking" statements to show a flexible response. Have students become "thinking detectives" and look for clues that show how someone in a story, video, or real-life classroom situation can use flexible thinking. They can write a short "detective report" describing the problem, the stuck reaction, and a flexible alternative. In small groups, students can create a kid-friendly way to teach flexible thinking to younger students. Options include a skit, comic strip using Free Comic Strip Maker by Adobe, reviewed here, poster, slide deck using Google Slides, reviewed here, or mini-story.You must be registered and logged in to add items to your favorites.

If you want a simple and engaging way to introduce students to the Habits of Mind, this video is a perfect starting point. A Little Spot of Flexible Thinking uses relatable characters to show how our thoughts can become rigid and "stuck," much like an oak tree that refuses to bend. As the story unfolds, students see how shifting to flexible thinking, like a palm tree that moves with the wind, helps them adapt when plans change, solve problems creatively, and stay calm in challenging situations. This approach ties directly to the Habit of Mind Thinking Flexibly and encourages learners to consider new perspectives, adjust their approach, and recognize that their mindset influences how they respond to everyday obstacles. This video helps students learn how to stay calm, adjust, and keep an open mind in the classroom. If your district blocks YouTube, then the video may not be viewable.

Give students a set of scenario cards (ex, "Your group changes the plan," "A game has new rules," "You make a mistake on a project"). Have students sort them into rigid-thinking responses and flexible-thinking responses, then discuss how the Habit of Mind Thinking Flexibly would affect the outcome. Students can draw themselves as a palm tree thinker and list three times when they adapted, changed a plan, or tried a new strategy. In partners, have students create a short skit that teaches younger students how to think flexibly. They must include a scenario, an example of rigid thinking, and a flexible alternative. Present these to another class or during a morning meeting.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member

Students can participate in various blended learning models in the classroom. In the Flex Model, students can participate in a Kahoot!, reviewed here or create their own Blooket, reviewed here. Finally, students can use Lino, reviewed here to build an online collaborative board of material that they learned from any of the examples of blended learning shared in the blog post.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member
