Q1 of 17 Page 66

Make a short list of things you find difficult to do.

For example:


Turing a somersault


Threading a needle


Compare your list with the others’ in the class. Can you explain why you find these things difficult to do?

Things that I find difficult to do are doing crunches, convincing people and making a complete round chapatti. I find them difficult to do because I lack a little confidence while doing them and find them hard.
