Date:

Some work takes a long time, like writing a story or a big maths page.

I keep my brain on my work, even when it gets tricky.

If I get distracted, I notice it and come back.

I can take a short stretch break and then keep going.

When I focus, I finish my best work.

Draw me doing it

For the grown-up: Ask, don't tell: “What could you do next time?” helps children own their choices.
