Being resilient is part of our Developing mathematical mindsets - Secondary teachers collection. 

In Developing students' resilience, we offer you support and advice on how to encourage your learners to become resilient mathematicians.

We know that good thinkers are resilient, they don't give up easily, and are motivated to work hard and keep going when faced with challenges. Here are some problems that may require similar determination from your students. You could warn your students that the solutions may not be immediately obvious, and they may need to persevere. We hope that they will have the opportunity to appreciate that success can be sweeter after a struggle.
