January 5th

1. Turn in the WSQ sheet to the sub from the Duckworth Ted Talk.

2. Read the article by James Clear: The Importance of Grit and Perseverance

3. Thinking about the definition, KC Star article, Clear's article, and Duckworth's video, your score on the Grit quiz, please respond to the following three prompts. Be thoughtful... be thorough... be critical in your thoughts and writing. Bring in examples and evidence from the article/video/life.

SUBMIT THESE TO GOOGLE CLASSROOM BEFORE CLASS ON FRIDAY!

What have you learned about the importance of grit in the classroom, and in life? 

How do you already exhibit characteristics of grit... or have exhibited characteristics of grit in your life thus far? 

In what areas of life do you want to improve on your grittiness? How? Why? 

On a side note, I am so sorry to miss you all the first few days of the semester! I have the flu, and I am totally miserable.
