GRIT!

Today we talked about grit and what it is. We took a test and I am on the grittier side. Just in you don’t know what gritty means it means that you can stick to a project or idea and complete it well. I think I can be very gritty at things I want to work hard on. For example, I am very gritty at skateboarding. Once I get a trick in my mind a absolutely cannot stop thinking about it and trying it. I can also be gritty at projects such as building something or creating something. I think the reason why I cant be that gritty on projects was because in grade 4 I had a really mean teacher. And when finished a long project that I worked on for 9 hours straight my mom said I was guaranteed to get an A. But the next day I walked home with a C. I was really discouraged by that and still am to this day. But I’m trying to do my best everyday.
