If you knew my students, you would delight in them as much as I do.
One of my 6th graders has discovered that when he pays close attention during class, he hardly has to study for tests to get A’s! C-O-O-O-O-L!
My students are discovering that it pays to try giving an answer, whether they are correct or not because trying and participating in class are important behaviors to Miss Becky.
They have learned that a large picture scores a higher grade than a teeny-weenie offering in the center of a piece of paper in ART class.
Sitting up in class is meritorious!
Helping others, picking up trash, flushing un-flushed toilets [Ewww; I know, but let's get real here!] and volunteering for chores are behaviors that please their teacher because she thinks those are the sort of things that Jesus would do if He were in our class. And they are right!!
Some of them come over to greet me every morning when the bus drops them off (I just love that) while others choose to hug me daily–who can’t benefit from one of those regularly and voluntarily given?
They don’t all know my Lord and Savior yet — but hope springs eternal. Romans 10:13
Thank you for praying with me for Angel, Hernalia, Amanda, DeBryanna, Justin, Cleandro, Laqueta, Crystal, Tomika, Juanita, Darren, Shania, and Aaliyah.
Oh, and pray for their teacher, Miss Becky.
