Instead of…

Try thinking…

I don’t understand.

What am I missing?

I give up.

I’ll use some of the strategies I’ve learned!

I made a mistake.

Mistakes help me improve!

This is too hard.

This may take some time and effort!

It’s good enough.

Is this really my best work?

I’ll never be as smart as him/her.

I’m going to figure out what he/she does and try it!

I can’t make this any better.

I can always improve; I’ll keep trying!

I’m not good at this.

I’m on the right track!
