my experience students often struggle with Persisting. They want a quick fix or answer. This can cause them to give up easily rather than persevering in a task. If they could be encouraged to keep pushing and work the problem they could be successful and experience a sense of achievement. Another area of struggle is Thinking & Communicating with Clarity and Precision. They often take the first answer or solution they come up with regardless of if it is accurate. They need to be taught how to think through their choice and determine whether it is actually correct. Understanding how to revise a response to make it as clear as possible for others is necessary as well.
