Happy Almost-Friday!
I love the theme of this linky hosted by the fun new collaborative Primary Powers:
I've been practicing daily gratitude for years now and at times, I can be get a tad ridiculous (I'm thankful for drinking water! I love my pillow!). However, I really can't recommend it enough - it helps me appreciate all the opportunities and privileges I have and miracles literally seem to jump out at me.
I work in a high poverty urban environment and I'm reminded at least 10 times a day, every day, that I'm so incredibly blessed.
So with that warning, I did manage to narrow down my list
(I was running out of space):
And if you are reading this...I'm thankful for you, too! It's been a very challenging school year and blogging has been incredibly therapeutic. I've enjoyed sharing and learning from all of you!

Oh, I can't believe I also forgot to thank Donors Choose under my thankful list. They do so much for us teachers! I also blogged about being thankful for books! You won't believe some of the crazy stories my aunt who teaches in China tells me about what she can and cannot read!

I can honestly say that the generosity of donors has transformed my teaching - no exaggeration! This year I received an ipad to use with my students who need a differentiated response format (using technology) - I'm forever grateful and in awe that strangers have reached out to help my students :)
DeleteYou have a lot to be thankful for!!! I hope the rest of your year goes smoothly! :)

ReplyDeleteI always wonder if I should switch it to more bright & primary colors, but I love the soothing palette.
