Guest Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 I'm not sure if this is in the right place - so feel free to move this post, if not! Development Matters booklet - Characteristics of Effective Learning 'Keeping on trying' - IS THIS GRAMMATICALLY CORRECT?! :huh: It sounds SO clumsy. :blink:
Fredbear Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 I questioned the very same last year on here, certainly doesn't sit right with me.
Guest Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 Wonder if anyone would take offence if I altered the wording on all my documents to 'persevering' !
Guest Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 I prefer keeps trying ......it makes them that dictate to us seem slight more human!!
Wildflowers Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 We use 'perseveres with challenges'.and for some add '..., seeking solutions' as some children keep (on) trying to do the same thing, without succeeding whilst other looks for other ways.
enuffsenuf Posted August 17, 2013 Posted August 17, 2013 how about persists with an activity even when it challenges them?
