As a class, we decided there were a number of strengths that we wanted to use in our classroom to make it a better place to learn. Perseverance was one of these. I agree, this is a key strength, as it is only by persevering that we get better at things that are difficult to start with.

I want you to blog about a time that you have had to use this strength (perseverance). It does not have to have happened at school, it can be related to anything you have done where you didn’t give up. Make sure you explain clearly what you were doing and how you felt. Was there anyone who helped you? What did you learn from that experience?
