    I think the quote means if you fall down get back up and try again. Just like when I wanted to ride my first bike but it was to big, but that didn't stop me I asked my dad for help getting on the bike but I fell over. Later we found out we could out the seat down, he did and then I rode like the wind.

  5. I think that this quote means that is someone fails so many times they have the courage and the perseverance to keep going. Like if a soccer team loses their games all in a row they try and they keep going until they win!

  6. Jake Perez I think that it means that Cole will come to 7 problems. I think that he will stand up to the problems. One thing that i think one of the problems is that he will need to live though the winter and he will have no shelter because he burn it down so he will find a new shelter. That's what i think it means.

  7. I think that the phrase means that if you have many bad, sad, and hard situations, there is always more chances to get up and fight for the right even if it is very hard.

    The quote,"Fall down seven times, stand up eight", means that Cole fail seven times to prove he's sorry for beating up a kid and he has eight more chances to be different and a nice kid or else it's prison for him.

    I think the quote "Fall down seven times, stand up eight" means that you keep on trying and you finally succeed. If you try 7 times and succeed on the 8th, I think that means you kept on trying and trying, and you finally did it. Also it has to do with perseverance because perseverance is a trait that means never give up even though something difficult is in your way. I think the quote and the example of perseverance is linked because it says "Fall down seven times, stand up eight." it has to do with perseverance because its similar of the example of perseverance because the character never gave up.

    I think the quote means to keep on going even though its hard like if when you learn to ride a bike and you crash doesn't mean you should stop trying to do it, you get back on and you keep on trying.

    I think "Fall down seven times, stand up eight" means to not give up and keep trying no matter what. If you are trying to ride a penny board, but you keep falling, get up and try again until you get it. If you are trying to learn a new sport, but you think its too hard keep trying and don't give up.

    Fall down seven times, stand up eight means that if u give up you should keep trying until you get it right. Like Saying if your at the end of a race you should keep going until you go to first place. Also by saying you will never get the thing you want you just need to be positive and never give up. Also another goal was that if you want to make your AR goal you never give up until you reach that goal. These are some examples of Perseverance.

  17. I think the quote means that you fall down and then get back up.Like the time when i learned how to skate at the fountain valley skating center it was so hard but my dad succeeded because he already knew how to skate so my dad started to train me the more i learned the more bruises i got there were so many bruises after i learned how to skate,there was literally my how leg bruises so when it was 2014 me and my brother finally got hockey blades and that's how i learned how to skate so i think that is what the quote means.

  18. I think that the quote "fall seven times, stand up eight." means to keep trying until you get it. like if you can't play the flute right, you keep on learning the notes until you can play the flute right.

  19. Meela Ly- I think it means that you can try 7 times but when you do it the 8th time, then you might be able to do it. I remember a time when I tried to make a chocolate lava cake and I failed many times and then when I tried it another time, I finally got it. The times I did not get it correct just made me learn how much more of that ingredient I needed to put in.

  20. Pete Lozano,
    Try your best to reach your AR goal, don't get lower than your point or % goal. (Remember you can only take the quiz on a book once, so try your best!) You should get at least 80% on the questions but go for 100%!

  21. I think it means you failed 7 times by doing it yourself and on your 8th try a friend helps you get up.

    I think that quote means you keep trying until you succeed because the word falling mean keep trying. Standing up means succeeding with something. That what I think it means.

  24. An example of perseverance:
    Even if you don't succeed the first time doesn't mean your are not going to try again the second you will come back stronger, faster, braver, and confident. And as you come back again and again you will learn something each time until you know that you are ready cause all the things in the past to get up to this is going to pay off. Now it may have taken days, weeks, months, or even years but wasn't it all worth it in the end?

  25. I think this quote means that if you fall a bunch of times you will be brave and get up to continue what you were doing instead of quitting.For example if you are in a basketball game,and you fall you can just get up and finish the game instead of being a quitter"Persevere"

    1. Good, but you made a mistake, ""Persevere"" should be separated from "quitter".

  27. What I think Fall down seven times, stand up eight times. I think that means that you need to keep on trying don´t give up. say if you ride a bike a scooter and you keep on falling down you should never give up. This is a example of Perseverance.

  28. Clarissa Diaz:For example I think this quote means for the first time you ever played basketball you have to try to put the basketball on the hoop seven times and for eighth time put the basketball on the hoop to succeed.

  31. Jesus Lopez,
    it might means trying to meet your goal no matter if you fall and trying an until to reach for it. example, so if you are riding a skate board and you fell you keep trying until you get it. just keep trying. but when your trying use helmet to protect your head. and some parts to protect your body to.

    I think it means someone will attempt 7 times and not succeed, and on the 8th time, they will succeed. For example, someone might play a video game and not complete a level 7 times, and on the 8th time, they will pass the level. Or someone might not pass a test 7 times, and on the 8th attempt, they would pass the test.

  33. It means you never give up no matter what. Like I want a 3DS and I have to save up money but once you are done it is over.
