Character Development:

Grit:

Definition: Grit means not giving up, even when something is really hard. It’s about being determined, working through challenges, and keeping a positive attitude until you reach your goal. When you have grit, you keep trying, even if it takes a long time or you make mistakes along the way. It’s like being a problem solver and never quitting!

Practice 1: What is Grit? Why is it important?

Practice 2: How do you show Grit in soccer?

Practice 3: Can Grit be used at home or school? How?

Practice 4: How can we motivate each other to show Grit?
