Teach, LOVE, Inspire
Cool Cats Update
Week of November 27
Monday Motivation
The next 3 weeks are busy! We need to be there for one another. Some days will be GREAT and other days we will need a little pick me up. Remember that we are here for you to celebrate and to help you as well.
Your vibe attracts your tribe. No matter how self-sufficient we
all believe we are, the truth is we need a good support system.
We need each other. We all could use more friendships,
support, inspiration, compassion, and kindness. The people we
surround ourselves with have the power to uplift and inspire us.
Choose the people around you that challenge you. They
ignite your spirit and help you to grow. Think about the people
you know who could be positive influencers in your life. Spend
more time with them. As you surround yourself with positive,
supportive, and energetic people, your vibe will resonate into
your classroom. Your students will feel the energy too. That
makes it all worth it.
