Resilience...
"It’s a skill that takes practice. “Resilience works like a muscle we can build through effort and repetition, and we want to keep our muscles strong and flexible so we can think of many ways to solve a problem,” Mary Alvord, a psychologist and author, tells Fagell. “At the core, resilience is the belief that while you can't control everything in your life, there are many aspects you can control, including your attitude.”
-Gosner, Edutopia
Here are 5 ways to help build resilience in children:
1. Set BRAVE goals.
2. Model learning from mistakes.
3. Encourage responsible risks.
4. Label difficult emotions.
5. Teach about resilience.
