Guest Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Wonder if anyone would take offence if I altered the wording on all my documents to 'persevering' ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnonyMouse_33773 Posted August 16, 2013 Share 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.
