This month, we are reading She Persisted by Chelsea Clinton, a book about 13 incredible women who kept trying even when things were tough. This book teaches the importance of perseverance—continuing to try even when something is hard. Ask your child about the inspiring stories they have read and how they can practice perseverance in their own lives!
Homelink Activity:
Family Connection- Talk with your family about a time they had to keep trying to do something. Ask them how they felt and what helped them not give up.
