Education is the movement from darkness to light.

- Allan Bloom

WHY GRIT?

Research coming out of  the University of Pennsylvania and Angela Duckworth's  lab is that IQ is not the total measure of  a successful student. She has named the single word  GRIT which embodies five different characteristics.  

  • Courage

  • Resilience

  • Excellence & Perfection

  •  Endurance

  • Conscientiousness

This lesson introduces the GRIT concept to students so they can self-monitor it in their own lives.  They will be able to use it in schoolwork as well as their daily lives.
