We have been learning about learning!
In the past few weeks we have been focusing on our attitude towards learning. In order to do this, we need to be able to identify our personal strengths abilities. So far we have looked at 3 different aspects:
- Perseverance-keeping at it, even when a task is hard
- Flexibility-trying different ways to find a solution
- Optimism-putting aside fear and resistance to learn something new
We found an example of Persistence with the cat Maru! He is so amazing!
We found an example of Flexibility with Ormie the pig! Hilariously inspiring…
And the embodiment of Optimism is Frog from the Frog & Toad stories by Arnold Lobel.
Having a positive attitude about learning (a growth mindset) allows us to take on challenges with confidence and zeal!
Watch for an upcoming post that includes empathy and resilience.
