I am reading the points others wrote, but this task was extremely difficult for me. As a new teacher, I don’t make these groups. I don’t think any of my students are bad at math. I approached it trying to think from the perspective of the student that believes this about his/her/themself.
Good – motivated to work, likes to try because they “know” they will be successful.
Bad – sits and waits for an example problem to be worked out for them because they are afraid to attempt it, or believe they will not get it right “anyway.”
Both – Genuinely want to learn.
