Description
School is full of challenges and hard work, and some of our students need a little boost to give it their all and keep trying! This perseverance and self-talk lesson teaches kids about the power of self-talk and how we can choose what we tell ourselves to help us face challenges. It also gives them practice using relevant scenarios to reinforce their learning.
