Perseverance

For our monthly challenge, we were to find a time where we faced great difficulty and describe how we persevered through that time. This was easier said than done. Many of my students had to think a while for a time where they faced great difficulty, not knowing that their daily lives (to most people) would be facing great difficulties.

Once thought of all of my 6th graders found a time and were able to think about how they over came that difficult time.

It was great hearing about Lex opening up and telling about he lost his eye sight and it really gave a different perspective on our lives. No matter how difficult we think we have it, someone else is persevering through their difficult time.
