Perseverance

I want to spend the next few posts talking about how we develop perseverance in our students.  It is one of the greatest gifts we can give them.  Teach them to stick with it.  Teach them to never give up.  Cultivate grit.  Foster a growth mindset.  Plaster it all over your classroom.  Show inspirational videos like this! This video is amazing and inspiring and something all our students need to know!
