Principal Moment

When I was a student in elementary school, I remember a teacher who had minimal patience when it came to teaching students new things.  He would get frustrated if students didn't 'get it' after one lesson.  He thought we weren't really trying.  

Teachers ask students to learn some pretty difficult concepts; how to read, multiply, and become persuasive writers.…I mean, why didn’t anyone tell me before I had children that I would have to live my homework nightmares all over again?

We are learning to be determined and  to keep trying even though things get hard! Our learner power we are are working on is “to be determined” in our learning, just like Spike Spider.
