Patience
Lifeskills Make a Difference!

Patience is defined as “the capacity to bear trials or pain calmly or without complaint.” Patience is learned best when modeled. Students show growth in patience when they wait for other people to finish talking before they speak or when they wait to use materials that someone else is using.
