I keep going when I feel like giving up.

I think before I do it. I hit the pause button.

I listen and care. I am there for friends.

I think flexibly – I brainstorm ideas.I look at it another way. I change it.

How will I think about this? How do I like to learn? Alone? In pairs?How do I feel right now about this?

I check my work and fix it. I do my best. I aim high.

I ask questions. I find out answers.I solve problems. I ask Why? & What if?

I use what I have learned, in a new place.My learning is a bridge for my new ideas.

I choose the right words and images for my audience and my purpose. I eat healthy food and I exercise.I sleep enough to think clearly.

I use my five senses to get information.I pay attention to the world around me.

I create, imagine and innovate.I try new ways of doing things.

I love being in new places.I love learning new things.I find the world amazing.

Cows don’t usually fly! I am brave – I do something which is new.I get out of my comfort zone.

I find the funny side of things.I have a laugh – it’s good for me.

I am a good team member.I listen well to others. I do my bit.

I want to keep learning.I’m okay with my mistakes.I’m on a lifelong learning journey.
