Wolfe Stew

If you've been around Wolfe Stew for long, you know that I have a love/hate relationship with October. I love the season, that our nephew's birthday is this month, and that I get to start making stews and baking with pumpkin! But Halloween has lost its appeal for me. Yet, as is true for all of us, I have the power to choose what I focus on. So, I'll focus on the things that bring me JOY. I hope you're doing the same in your classroom. As the October to December season creeps in and students start thinking more and more about holidays and less and less about academics, remember you too have the power to focus on the victories instead of the disappointments. And that is my October challenge for you: before you head home each night, choose one victory from the day to carry with you. And my prayer is that remembering the one victory creates a chain of more and more victories for you.  Let's, together, greet each October day with confidence! Resources to Support You in Y...

We are almost done with our first full week of school and that, as you know, is an accomplishment worth celebrating. The biggest obstacle has been staying cool; the Mr.'s school has no air conditioning. But he is loving his fifth-grade learners!

It's nearly here! Do you hear the school bells ringing? Students chattering with excitement while teachers firmly, but lovingly, guide them? Pencil sharpeners buzzing? Pages turning? It's back to school time!  The Mr. is so excited to be back in 5th grade this year, and the Mrs. is looking forward to helping him plan that more in-depth content. Who doesn't love teaching the American Revolution, after all?  We hope you are excited for the back-to-school season, too. If you're looking for some fresh ways to add celebration into your school routine or Bible study into your personal routine, we're here to help!
