Encourage students to share their personal experiences with challenges. Discuss how persistence can lead to growth in their learning journey.

Start with a quick brainstorming session where students list things they find difficult. Then, have them pair up and discuss how they might overcome these challenges.

1. What is a challenge you've faced in learning?
2. How did you feel when you encountered this challenge?
3. What strategies did you use to overcome it?
4. Can you think of someone who inspires you to keep going?
5. How can we support each other in our learning journeys?

Many students believe that intelligence is fixed, overlooking the power of effort and learning from mistakes.

Play a 'Challenge Jar' game where students anonymously submit a challenge they face. As a class, discuss and brainstorm solutions together.

Foster an environment where mistakes are seen as stepping stones to success, not failures.
