The character strength for this month is Persistence which is linked with our Core Value of Hard Work.
Here are some pointers which could be used in morning meetings as ways of developing this life skill:
-
Encourage a growth mindset
-
Praise effort over innate ability
-
Discuss challenges as opportunities
-
Celebrate small victories
-
Model Persistence
-
Discuss your own experiences- Share stories about times you were persistent.
Many thanks for bringing the character strengths to the awareness of children.
Kind regards
Well-being/Behaviour team
