Pigs must be flying.. we got a HURRICANE/wind day here in Ohio! I have to say, when I got the call last night that school was off, I was probably more giddy then most of the students! I know all of you teachers out there can relate! Funny thing, in our staff meeting yesterday even our principal was agreeing that it just seemed like it was going to be a long, tiring week. Top it off with me being sick… this day couldn’t have had better timing!
Now I know I just posted, but with a little bit of time on my hands as I’m spending my day cleaning and getting some lesson plans done, I couldn’t resist this awesome Motivational Monday linky party! Blogger friend Sara over at Smiling in Second Grade posted this awesome linky party.
On rainy, cold, and windy days (much like the last few days have been) we all NEED a little motivation. So here’s what keeps me going when the going gets tough….
always been one of my favorites. There is something greater out there to help us and guide us.. never forget!
For those times that we are all working to get back into shape! I always remind myself that I still have to put one foot in front of the other to walk, so I might as well run!
I try to remind myself this with my students… showing that we care about the little things, will make them care about the big things!
I LOVE me some HP! I actually had a little mini marathon this week rewatching the movies. I always use Harry Potter for examples in class when we are discussing literary elements. The books have SO many great messages! As teachers, we can always find ways to motivate, even when our motivation is down.. just keep looking until you find that light that burns strong!
hahahah I had to include this one… I got a big laugh out of it!Ya’ll are wonderful!! Enjoy the rest of your day. I hope everyone is staying safe and warm in this crazy weather!
