My class is “wild” about The Wild Robot books by Peter Brown! We are diving into the second book after celebrating the movie last weekend as a class! Now the creative juices are flowing so we are writing a story about our own robot! I’ve never seen such excitement for writing!

Our children need educators and parents engaged, face-to-face, regulated, and happy to be with them. 🥰

Keep your kids engaged, spend quality time with them and sneak in a little (fun!) learning. We've created a list of 100+ activities for families to do together — from games around the house to field trips across Kansas. Explore and enjoy!

We have visited a couple of businesses in April to create career awareness for young people! Business show and tell for kids! We visited The Daily Grind and SNB so far. We hope to grow this opportunity as part of the HirePaths ambassadorship. Here are some pics of our time together. A big thank you to my “pilot” businesses! 💙🍎
Stay tuned for mini career day this Wednesday!
We appreciate all the expertise in this community and new ways to teach standards! We had a great economics lesson!

🍎What it’s like being a teacher….🍎
It’s the end of April. Energy is high and the kiddos are restless. Your teacher is doing and working like mad to finish the year strong with the sweet babes she’s had all year. On a Thursday evening while working on her computer the doorbell rings. There is a student holding flowers for her and she’s ready to give me the biggest hug ever!
This is what gets us through. The sweet kids who get our love and nurturing every single day.
The tears are flowing tonight with pride and once again another reminder…..this is why we hang in there and deal with the negative.
I love kids! 🩷💐
Pray for your school and pray for your teachers. 🙏

Passion, perseverance, and dedication is a rare jewel these days! It’s always about the kids! 🙏💙

We’re heading into a new week, and it’s almost May, and I need you to remember that teachers are people.

Teachers have moms and dads and babies and friends and significant others and feelings and burdens.

Teachers get to school early, and leave late, and worry. They text each other on Sundays, grade on Saturdays, and spend too much of their own money on classrooms that are second homes. Rugs and lamps. Juice boxes and snacks. Framed pictures and extra chargers.

Teachers wonder about your kids, build relationships with your kids, and remember them years later. Teachers worry about them, and are thankful for them even years later. Possession changes—they are your kids, but they are their kids, too.

Teachers inspire, protect, defend, and advocate for your kids. Every single day.

Ceaselessly. Doggedly. Unashamedly. Teachers root for for the underdogs and cheer for the successes and even when their hands are tired of clapping—they just don’t stop.

They are exhausted. It’s spring, and your kids are tired, and you’re tired, and teachers are trying to make up the difference. And that difference sometimes looks like bigger gestures, later nights planning new, inventive lessons, more excitement, more, more, more.

More.
More.
More.

They somehow always find a way to do more with less.

The final bell rings, they sit at their desks, and they take a deep breath. And they’ll do it all again the next day, and the next. Because teachers are rooted in love.

It’s a marathon.

It’s not a sprint.

And they signed up for the long haul.

And your kids are worth it.

So today, when you’re dropping off your kids—say an extra prayer of thanks for the teachers. Chances are? Your kid’s teacher is offering one up, too—one full of joy and gratitude—just for your baby.

And the way I see it?

The world could use more of that right now.

xoxo, B.
