Don’t stop trusting the Lord just because you couldn’t trust people. He is altogether different, altogether holy, gracious, compassionate, merciful & good. He keeps his word. Keeps you. Place your faith in Christ alone. He will get you through. Weep, yes, but knowing joy cometh.

We know a lot of you are heading back to the classroom today after a well-deserved break. We wanted to remind you to never underestimate how much your effort matters! You're doing an incredible job and we're cheering you on! Have a wonderful Monday, educators. ❤️

@JulieMommaklink Or, the ones that change overnight, the day BEFORE virtual BTSN! Why Google? Why roll out a change without personally emailing teachers? …just saying 🤷🏼‍♀️😳🤪

Dear Admin./Curriculum Specialists/All Educators who are not full time classroom teachers- Shout out to Ts in classrooms who must relearn/refamiliarize themselves w/ all the digital platforms/tech tools that reboot over summer. You may be an expert in ONE-we must in ALL.

@chipgaines This is so very generous of you! I would love a replacement set of student whiteboards. (30) The ones I have are scratched and won’t erase properly. TIA for your kindness.

We are sooo thankful for all you teachers!! Send me your wishlist today.. I’m going to clear as many as I can!! As always (non-teachers) if you see a list that hasn’t been cleared, jump in and help out. #CleartheList

@bekahmason Thank you for your thoughts- I have been struggling with this all week

@friarjen So sad for you. After 38 yrs pain is remains, and my heartbreaks for others in the same valley. I recall my doctor sitting me down, telling me that often others will unintentionally say hurtful things attempting comfort you. His advice: thank them - they don’t know what to say.

At this time last week I was 3 months pregnant. Today I’m not. Getting on social media sucks because apparently everyone is pregnant & I’m just full of grief.

@Guinn_AESD @AnaheimElem @DrCarlosFPerez1 @jessicascott777 My students were having such a great time they didn’t want to move onto the next activity!

@ambercurt had #FunFriday as she rewarded her #scholars who completed ALL of their work from the week before. Since it was #ReadAcrossAmerica week, they made Oobleck- inspired by Bartholomew and the Oobleck. @AnaheimElem @DrCarlosFPerez1 @jessicascott777

@JulieMommaklink @PearDeck Nope- in March! Oops!

Congratulations! @PearDeck the co-teacher option has been a #gamechanger for my student teacher & me. I have created a Peary🍐Pal for life while modeling student engagement, teacher collaboration & immediate feedback.

@JulieMommaklink @PearDeck That’s great news! I look forward to learning more about that. I will need it in February.

This is very fitting for me and how I have learned to trust God more:

@TMobile @FeedingAmerica Thank you @TMobile for your generosity

#GivingTuesday is all about sharing a little good. Join us by using #CaptureKindness in a tweet until 12/4. For each one, we’ll donate 100 meals* to @FeedingAmerica (up to 10 million meals). tmobilecapturekindness.com *$1 provides at least 10 meals. Min donation $100K.

We can’t always fix our circumstances, but we can fix our eyes on God. And one of the best ways to begin is simply by lifting up gratitude-filled prayers. Each thing we verbalize our thankfulness for is like a stepping stone out of the pit of discouragement in our lives.

Hooray! I earned my @peardeck Recording Artist Badge! 🎤 Want to join me at the top of the charts? Check out peardeck.com/achievements for more! 🎉

@JulieMommaklink @DonnaLG4 Mine have adjusted quickly, after I adjusted my teaching methods to more age appropriate activities. Those fun, fancy slides are GONE, in favor of more FACE time w me and as many hands on things I can think up! 7 of 180 done!

@DonnaLG4 YES! Raise your hand if your students are better adjusted than you predicted? My class is rocking it so far. I am modeling mistakes & asking forgiveness & demonstrating belly breathing on the daily. They are engaged all the way. I feed off their peace & calm.

Day 4. You will see things in the background. It's OK! Today I watched a mom change linens on a bed. A student was learning in the car wearing a seat belt. All were engaged! And I got a refresher on military corners. My husband will be pleased. #MrsK2021 #FullyCharged 🔋
