Journal or Blog Post Respond as fully as you can: What challenges will life after high school (whether you are planning on entering college or a career) present? You can type directly in the text box.

Read “Kewauna’s Ambition.” https://my.hrw.com/la3/la09/student/minisites/igo/index.htm

“noncognitive capacity—call it grit, conscientiousness, resilience, or the ability to delay gratification” that Kewauna displayed. Labels for someone with “grit” Individuals who fit these labels

Let’s see how you stack up against the “grit” scale Let’s see how you stack up against the “grit” scale. Check your answers using the pen in the lower left corner. (taken from http://www.sas.upenn.edu/~duckwort/images/12-item%20Grit%20Scale.05312011.pdf )

Go to the next slide to see how you scored

Discuss your results on the Grit Scale. In a small group: Discuss your results on the Grit Scale. If you do not have as much grit, is this a quality you wish that you had? Why or why not? Discuss with the group.

Read “You Can Train Yourself to Have More Grit.” Pick one factor to present to the class (or your teacher will select one for your):

Short Research Project! Conduct short, focused research on an individual who has been identified as displaying grit. You may come up with your own subject; however, if you have difficulty doing so, you may consult the following resources: Profiles of Persistence: First Generation College Students  U.S. Men's Hockey: Staple's Analysis: Americans have displayed true grit in run to a medal  Zak Pashak and Henry Ford II: Entrepreneurs help revive Detroit with Heart and Grit Sir Richard Branson, Henry Ford, Thomas Edison, Warren Buffet, and Oprah Winfrey are other individuals who have been described as having grit.

Which 1-2 factors listed in the “You Can Train Yourself to Have More Grit” article were most responsible for your researched individual’s grit?

Based on your reading of “Kewauna’s Ambition” and “You Can Train Yourself to Have More Grit,” what is success? Explain.

3 Choices for Formative Assessment Click through the next 3 slides and pick one option to assess what you learned during this lesson.

Written response: Write a brief response which addresses the following two questions:  (1) how does the researched individual display grit and which factor(s) were most responsible for the development of this grit?  (2) how do you relate to this individual and would you have acted similarly if put in the same situation?

Letter: Write a letter to your researched individual Letter: Write a letter to your researched individual. In your letter, explain what you respect about the way that he or she has achieved success and explain how that relates to your own experience. Your letter should make specific references to how the researched individual displayed grit and which factor(s) were most responsible for the development of this grit.

Comic Strip: Create a comic strip either on paper or using Make Beliefs Comix. Your comic strip should display an interaction between your researched individual and yourself. Your comic strip should make specific reference to how the individual would behave in comparison to how you would behave in the situation you create. Snip it and paste it below OR save a version and turn it in.
