Productive struggle will be the focus of a new series for families called "Try this Thursday!" We want to partner with families in this work so that, together, we can nurture perseverance, build confidence, and help children develop the skills they need to thrive both in and out of the classroom. Each week we will share a strategy families can use at home! This week's Try This Thursday is "What is Productive Struggle?"
