My school is collecting rewards to motivate our students this summer at our summer program. Some students made a wish list on amazon of stuff they would want to win in a drawing for attendance, behavior, and completed work! #Edchat#education

It was great to see Dr. Shumate today at school! I told him I needed a retake from the pre-Covid teacher of the year board meeting from last year. You still can’t see all of my face, but it’s better than what I had 😂😷🤷🏻♂️

Huge shout out to @Delta airlines! I emailed them because we needed headphones for testing(Before Covid-19)! They passed them out when I flew with them on my honeymoon, so I figured I’d ask! They sent 100 pairs of nice headphones for our school to use! #LCMSCougarStrong#ThankYou
“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.” Colossians 3:23-24
One of the best things a teacher can do for students is to find little ways for them to experience success. Success is one of the best motivations there is. It increases the likelihood students will keep working when things get a little tougher.
Remember, if everything came easy we wouldn't know what it felt like to truly succeed.
Obstacles are meant to be overcome. Fear is meant to be conquered. Success is meant to be achieved.
Believe. Take action. Play to Win today!
What a blessing it is to do what you love in an awesome school where you are surrounded by amazing support! I’m so honored and privileged to represent our school as teacher of the year with @cmnobley! “If you love what you do, you’ll never work a day in your life!”
Mr. Keating whispered to his students... “Carpe Diem.” Seize the day. Well... it can be challenging to tackle an entire day. How about something like “Carpe Tempus.” Seize the moment! We all have lots of little moments every day where we can make a difference for someone.
