Grades: 5th Grade
Subjects: Character Building

Student Instructions

Learning is not easy. Often times we have to hit "rock bottom" before we can actually learn something new--this is called "The Learning Pit". Once you hit that moment of frustration and confusion at the bottom of The Learning Pit, you have two choices: 1) stay there and continue to feel helpless or 2) find a way to climb out and succeed. Think about= What does it take for YOU to climb out of that pit and succeed? Directions: 1. Click the image of "The Learning Pit" and use the label to describe a time you struggled to learn something new, but were able to climb out the pit and succeed. Put at least three labels to describe your journey through The Learning Pit (one at the beginning, one at the middle, and one at the end). 2. Then, use the mic to record yourself explaining what helps you climb out The Learning Pit. 3. Click the green checks to turn in your work.
