Perseverance
Our wreath turned out beautifully. The Core Competencies in the B.C. Curriculum highlight the importance of working together to achieve a common goal. In making this wreath, we had to problem solve and get through small frustrations while showing our flexible thinking. I wasn’t sure if the students realised how many obstacles we had overcome, as a group, to arrive at our finished wreath as not all students were aware of individual stumbling blocks. To make this learning and our actions more evident, I decided to display many of our challenges in a way that we could see it from each other’s perspectives. Ultimately, it was a teachable moment that helped us build our understanding of perseverance. Congratulations to Div. 9!
