Welcome to another week of >>Prayers for the Teach

Welcome to another week of >>Prayers for the Teaching Journey<< This week's prayer prompt is: A GOOD ATTITUDE.
I know what you're thinking - "yes, some of my students definitely need an attitude adjustment!" And we'll get to that - but first, I want you to examine your attitude.
The Bible verse for this week is Psalm 19:14 "May these words of my mouth and this meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer."
I want you to examine your heart and see if you need an attitude adjustment. (This can be a tough realization to come to!) Teaching is such an involved profession and it is easy to feel stressed, exhausted, and bitter. Fight against these emotions with truth from God's Word. Commit your attitude to Him and renew your mind so that your thoughts may be pleasing and honoring to Him. The Lord has placed you in your classroom with your students for a reason. He will equip you. He will provide daily strength and grace. Rest knowing that He is in control. Like the Psalmist David, pray that the words from your mouth and the attitude of your heart would be pleasing to God.
Pray for your students' attitudes. You know your class well by now - pray specifically for the students who have bad attitudes. Pray for ways to encourage and motivate them to change their perspective and approach school with a good attitude. Pray for the students who demonstrate cheerful and diligent attitudes. Thank God for them. Pray that they would have a positive influence on the other students.Pray for the attitudes of your coworkers. Pray that you would be a shining example of someone who's hope is in the Lord. Pray that your attitude would reflect that of Christ's - so that you can point those you work with to Him.

Thanks for joining me - let me know if there is anything specific I can pray for you about. See you next Sunday for another prayer prompt!

Finished our schoolwork outside today because it was too beautiful to stay inside any longer! 🌞🍁🍃😍. My kjndergartener has been learning cursive and he’s doing SO well with it. He drew all of the letters and proudly shouted their sounds - giving a phonics lesson to all of our neighbors 🤣🤪. What about YOU? Are your kids/students learning cursive?

EDIBLE LANDFORMS! 😍 We’ve been learning about

EDIBLE LANDFORMS! 😍 We’ve been learning about landforms this week and put our knowledge to the test with this cute and YUMMY challenge: create each landform out of a food/candy item. Engaging, hands-on, and delicious! 👌

Pumpkin Day with our Preschool Learning Group was

Pumpkin Day with our Preschool Learning Group was a success! Today was SO much fun! 😍🎃. The kiddos loved hearing the story of Spookley the Pumpkin (while enjoying a delicious and cute pumpkin orange snack!), doing a pumpkin shape matching activity, acting as scientists to explore and observe a pumpkin, and doing a relay race balancing a pumpkin on their heads!

My kindergartener has been LOVING completing this

My kindergartener has been LOVING completing this cute number booklet! It’s the perfect no-prep hands-on way to teach and review numbers 1-10. Each page has the students coloring, tracing, writing, circling, and representing the number. This download is on sale for only $1 this week - simplify your lesson planning today! You’ll thank yourself later 😍. DM me if you’d like the link!

I’m loving our quiet homeschool mornings - my kindergartener is learning SO much and I love being a part of the process. My girls (ages 2 and 3) have done a great job keeping busy, either hanging at the table with us or playing in the play room. Some things we’ve used to keep them occupied so I can focus on school: coloring books, stickers, bingo dot markers, play doh, threading beads, sorting erasers (from the Target $ spot), and water wow books. I’m always looking for new ideas to keep them busy and happy, so if you’ve got any, please let me know! 😍

Coffee stop this morning! I got a delicious iced caramel latte. What’s your go-to pick-me-up treat? 😍☕️
