When working on the Try Your Hardest math problem, I had several students struggle. All of my students who qualified were not my strongest math students, but they were the ones that really put their minds to the challenge and used their resources to their best advantage. It's not always about who knows the most, it's about who is willing to work for that #scholasticsunshine moment of victory!
