“Once you choose hope, anything is possible.”
Christopher Reeve
Thank you, Spidey, for finding a perfect quote that ties in with my WOTY! (Word Of The Year)
Definitely a motto I choose to live by.
Such truth.
Which is why I never lose hope.
Things may be going crazy around you, but sometimes, you just have to cling to the hope that they might just get better.
Though, I must add, more often than not, it’s not just hope that helps change to occur. You have to be kinda proactive with your actions, too!
So… tell me, are you hopeful for our future?
Have a peaceful Sunday Peeps.
But I Smile Anyway...

You hit the nail on the head, Ritu. Hope, indeed!!! Are schools still open in the lockdown? Thinking of you, my friend.

We don’t use live lessons, because our demographic is such that many won’t be able to access, because of insufficient access to devices at the same time… but we are posting lots of activities and videos on our class blog, with the things we would be doing in school and resources for the parents to print, or find in the house, to help the children. It is hard, so hard for them, at this age….

I understand about the live lessons. Sounds like you’re doing the best you can. Can you video reading aloud a book each day? That really worked back when we were in lockdown. Giving parents activities and resources is great. I feel for you and those children! 😥

I am looking into doing the story, Jennie. I think the kids would love it! It has been tough, though…

I remember last March when we shut down. It was a nightmare and so tough for teachers to figure out something, much less the children trying to hang on. I set up a YouTube channel to read every day. It was easy and free.

It us, but we came up with so many barriers with copyright, initially!

Really? We only came up with copyright issues on a few songs, not books. If you make it private just for your class, it shouldn’t be a problem. Good luck!

I hope
– those i care about stay well
– we don’t run out of cheese
– we really take climate change seriously
– the lawn stays green until September
– somehow we make best of Brexit
– we put the young first and stop pandering to my age group
– did I mention cheese?
– i publish two books
– we absolutely destroy the Australians next winter…
