How do you help your little ones learn to 'enjoy the journey'? Understanding that hard work and perseverance is a worthwhile endeavour can be so hard for young learners to fully appreciate and can take many years.
3 ideas for teaching an appreciation of perseverance
- Read some books and use them to springboard into a discussion and reflection on personal experience - e.g. How to Catch a Star
- Ask students to recall an achievement or experience from their past. Ask them to recall at least 5 steps they took on their journey. Share and discuss how persistence paid off.
- Set the class a goal or challenge e.g. a reading challenge to read 20 books. Check in regularly through the week to monitor progress and reflect on how to maintain perseverance.
