Scholarly Attributes
A scholar is somebody who works hard to be a great student! They want to learn! The scholarly attributes are strategies and behaviors that we will be learning about and practicing throughout the year. They are essential to being the best scholar you can be and I am expecting every student to put them into practice!
Scholars are:
Productive: Scholars come ready to learn with the necessary tools and materials. They set goals, gather resources, and complete tasks.
Principled: Scholars do the right thing because they know it is expected. They demonstrate integrity, honesty, and fairness, even when no one is watching.
Risk-takers: Scholars are courageous and they know that mistakes are a part of the learning process. Scholars willingly take on academic risks that will benefit their personal learning.
Inquirers: Scholars are curious and imaginative. They ask questions and seek out knowledge, which leads to more questions. Learning is a lifelong process and never ends.
Persistent Thinkers: Scholars ponder ideas and exercise intellect. They know it is okay to not always have the right answers and persevere through challenges.
Reflective: Scholars understand their own strengths and limitations. They self reflect on their personal learning and always know there is room to improve.
Communicators: Scholars express themselves with confidence and clarity. They collaborate and actively listen to others while honoring multiple perspectives.
Balanced Self: Scholars understand the importance of emotional, academic, and extra-curricular balance.
