Spirit of Taekwondo

 Perseverance is to never give up.
  • I always finish what I start.
  • I tried five different ways to solve a math problem and I did it.
  • I stay positive even if things don’t go exactly right the first time.
  • I kept practicing my spelling words until I memorized them all.
  • Although I was tired, I went Taekwondo and I had a great class.
  • I am patient and understand that everything improves with practice.
  • I didn’t break the board on my first two tries so I tried again and broke it.

Make your own examples of how you finish what you started.
