Description
Class Experience
Grit is your child's ability to stay motivated and determined in the face of challenges. It is not dependent on IQ or natural born talents; your child's grit is based on their ability to push forward to accomplish their goals even when they don't "feel like it". This lesson series on grit will promote the development of grit in your child and teach them to embrace a difficult task without throwing up their white flag in surrender. Lesson 1 Essential Questions: What is grit? How gritty...
Students will learn how to develop grit, set realistic goals, handle obstacles, and use positive influences to their advantage.
I have a Bachelor of Arts in English Literature. My degree plan required the in depth study of reading, writing, creativity, and discussion as tools to help learners develop their own thinking and identity. I am a certified English Language Arts and Reading teacher, and I have 10 years of educational experience working with children in public school.
