Today is Fabulous Friday! It is our day to let the little child within us laugh and play more than ever! Life is meant to be exciting, but sometimes we get so bogged down with being a teacher, that we lock the little child within us away. Let them out TODAY! Your sentence over. Bobby McFerrin said it best. . . . . “Don’t Worry, Be Happy!” Today I release the need to control my students and I realize that I am here to aide them on their life’s journey and to help them train their minds to think. I can laugh and play with my students. No longer will I be the spirit crusher. ( Just as an aside. . . Something in me used to get very angry when I sent a child to timeout and they went over smiling. That made me feel the punishment wasn’t harsh enough. I am grateful to God for growing and learning. I now know, that it is not my job to punish students. I am simply a guide) I will guide my students with joy and not take myself too serious! I will laugh at my mistakes and theirs too. Every child I encounter today is only a mirror of my inner thoughts so I think thoughts of JOY LOVE and PEACE! ALL IS WELL IN MY CLASSROOM! ALL IS WELL IN MY SCHOOL! #IBlessMySchoolWithLove
