Habit of Mind for November:
Questioning and Posing Problems
“Millions saw the apple fall, but Newton asked why.” ~Bernard Baruch
Questioning and posing problems when something is difficult or you don’t understand it, is an important skill. When questioning or posing problems, you learn and you push yourself more.
“A problem is your chance to do your best.” ~ Duke Ellington
