Lesson 2: Mistakes Are Magic

Blind Contour Drawings 

• Students pick partners. Students draw them without looking at their paper or lifting up their sharpie.
• Have them do this a couple times.
• Discussion: What can you learn from this activity?

• Incorrect Trivia
• Students pick a leader. Leader asks the questions on page 10.
• The rest try and come up with the most clever, incorrect answer.
• Leader chooses a winner after each question. Switch leaders every so often.
• Discussion:
  1. How did it feel to be incorrect on purpose?
  2. How did the experience of trying, even when unsure, contribute to the overall enjoyment of the game?
  3. How did embracing mistakes in this game influence your perspective on taking risks in other areas of your life?

Weekly Challenge: Set mini mistake goals.

Have students set a goal for how many times they can make a mistake during an activity they enjoy. For example, if they are on a sports team, they can set a goal to take a certain number of shots, even if they’re not sure if they will make them.
