   Right from birth, children acquire new talents or skills at a very difficult rate. And with those new capacities, they also acquire the confidence to use them.    As children get aged, that confidence can be as important as the skills/chops themselves. To thrive, children need to trust in their capabilities while, at the same time, knowing that they can handle it if they aren’t successful initially. It’s by passing mastery and rebounding from failure that they develop a healthy tone- confidence.     There  are many ways you can set children up to be up to the task and get the utmost out of their skills :   1.

CHARACTERISTICS OF CHAMPIONS (PART 1)

  INTRODUCTION All Champions have a broader vision of what they want to create. It could be winning an Olympic gold medal, hoisting a World Cup trophy, or setting a new world record. Below are the features of Champion. 1. Vision Whatever the vision, all champions are working towards something bigger. Because the bottom line is this: "If you don't know where you're going, you'll never get there.'' I think some people are panicking because they have to plan for the rest of their lives. , but the vision changes over time, so don't panic. What matters is that you have something to work towards. So ask yourself what you want to create. And start taking small steps to achieve this. Then the question is "How?" This brings me to number two. 2.

Introduction What attributes characterize effective writing? Before producing the final product, good writers plan and modify, rearrange and delete material, re-read, and create numerous drafts. A process writing technique focuses on this.   Process writing: What is it? The process approach views all writing as a creative endeavor that needs time and encourages criticism to be completed successfully. When teaching process writing, the teacher departs from the traditional role of assigning writing assignments to students and receiving their final drafts for editing.   Why Might a Process Approach to Writing be Appealing to Teachers? Research has shown that feedback is most helpful when given in between drafts rather than when it is given after the students have submitted their essays to be graded. Writing corrections on essays that have been sent back to students after the process is complete doesn't seem to help their writing much.   The Shifting Responsibil
