Review: Educator's Quick Reference Guide to Grit in the Classroom

I became very excited when I received this booklet, Educator's Quick Reference Guide to Grit in the Classroom. As a former classroom teacher, but a lifelong educator, I feel this is material that teachers should refer to at the beginning of every term plus periodically in between.
"Grit=passion+sustained perseverance"
This booklet talks about how to cultivate passion and build perseverance. It gives strategies on how to introduce grit to students and how to set goals using SMART as a guide. Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant and Time-bound.It also talks about developing grit and using effort to pursue excellence.
I do with that I had this booklet when I was in the classroom as a reminder of the kind of educator I wanted to be. I feel this is a needed reference to have in every classroom.
I was given this booklet by Library Thing in exchange for my honest review.
