Back To School

Well, I am back at work and have 16 students. Not bad! We had an open house last night. I was happy when one mom, who is a police officer, complimented my teaching style. She said her son likes my class. Yey! Not everyone hates school, especially when you make it fun.

I'm currently trying to find some fairly inexpensive resources to help me with the Reading Class at Alive. I may buy a phonics program called Zoophonics that uses a kinesthetic approach to help kids remember the sounds of the letters and the vowel combinations.

This week has been very stressful, because of my granddaughter having problems at school. Many people have been praying for her. More than before, I believe that prayer is VERY powerful. Much prayer has gone up for my family & for me. God has used those prayers to bring much healing! I am extremely thankful! We may never see rewards in this life for the time we spend in prayer, but God knows.
