Perseverance is definitely one of my favourite themes! After listening to some great advice from +Tristan Walker and Justin Snith, my students were ready to take on the challenge of learning a new task. The children were to choose a task which they wanted to learn, but which would be difficult for them. They then had to practise this for twenty-one days. Some were able to achieve their goal, while others are still striving to achieve it. Following this, the children wrote about their experiences. Some of the children are eager to share their thoughts and experiences with you in the video below.
The children also played perseverance Bingo, which was a great way to learn some great perseverance vocabulary. After reading several mentor texts and watching other Classroom Champions mentor videos, the children made perseverance posters depicting the saying that they will continue to use for "self talk" when the going gets tough!
