         <description><![CDATA[<p>1. Ormie wants a cookie from the cookie jar.</p><p>2. Ormie tries to cut a hole in the floor with a chainsaw, he tries to skydive down to try and get them, and he also tries to use a rocket that he put on his back and all three times he failed.</p><p>3. Yes Ormie is successful at getting the cookies down but since the jar fell on his head he was not able to eat a cookie.</p><p>4. Yes there is something that I really wanted to get. But in order for me to be able to get what it was that I wanted I had to work really hard for the money that I needed to get it. Then finnaly after I got all of the money I was able to go and buy the thing that I wanted.</p><p>5.

         <description><![CDATA[<p>1.  Ormie wants a cookie from the cookie jar on top of the table.</p><p>2.  Ormie attempts to get the cookie by trying to use suction cups on his feet, by climbing up different sized boxes, and by trying to reach the cookies with a broom.</p><p>The result is an epic fail with each attempt.</p><p>3.  It would seem that Ormie is not successful because we don't get to witness him actually eating a cookie.  However, he is very successful in utilizing creativity in attempting to solve his problem.  He discovered many methods that didn't work.  However, if he had actually stuck to any given method with a second attempt, he might have found success.</p><p>4.  There are many things that I've worked really hard to get.  The biggest is children.  I went to a LOT of work to have children.  In my case, it required a mountain of paperwork, money, and extensive travel.  I had to cross the ocean twice and  brave a culture that was intimidating.  It took a lot of courage and perseverance to accomplish my goal of becoming a mother.</p><p>5.  Perseverance is an important character trait because without it, we just give up and quit when the going gets tough.  Perseverance helps us to success by giving us the kick in the butt that we need to get up and keep going each time that we fall.  It's not about how many times we fall...its about getting up, dusting off, and keeping on that counts.</p><p>Comments:</p><p>Tyler:  What jobs did you do to earn money for the item you were saving for?  What was the item and did you get it yet?</p><p>Luis:  I do recall that it took a lot of perseverance on my part as well to help you to persevere to get that passing grade in English.  #pushtherockupthemountain #likerunningamarathon #wedidit #bigsighofrelief</p>]]></description>

He tries to skydive and get them, he tries to ramp and get them, and he tries to jump and get them and he didn't.</p><p>3.Yes because at the end he got the cookies.</p><p>4. I had to work hard on my English work to get my grade to be passing. I was going to the after school things to do my work. I was also doing it at home a lot. </p><p>5. Because it shows that you are always willing to try your hardest at what you do. Its a good trait to have and it can help you get a job.</p><p>Gabby- When did you start worrying about your grades?</p>]]></description>
