Teachers who are emotionally, cognitively, physically, and spiritually healthy can more effectively support learners. If you as a teacher care about children, you must care about your own health. This journal begins by saying “Thank You” for your commitment to learning, and for recognizing the needs of every student. It continues with a 30 day self-care program designed just for teachers. It will provide you with an opportunity to reflect on each day’s successes and opportunities for improvement, engage in self-care activities, reinforce your worth through affirmations to empower self, and more. By setting aside a few moments each day, you will strengthen your ability to help others.

Schools are a microcosm of society. As violence, drugs, and neglect occur in our neighborhoods they are expressed through the behaviors of our children in the classroom. Teachers are expected to successfully address issues that society itself has not been able to resolve, while at the same time creating a setting in which all students can learn. Teaching students in today’s schools requires you to be at your best. Please give yourself the gift of personal time so you can have the fulfillment you deserve and be the best teacher you can be.

“As I read Don’t Play with Me, I Am Life, in this practical call to personal holiness, John deals boldly with the strongest attacks on the mind, body, and spirit of the young men of today. We cannot waste time playing hide-and-seek with lust and its consequences. John went back to his childhood and chronicles his subconscious mind as a sexual being. His young life as a boy has earned our trust by sharing his prospective from a biblical point of view. His wisdom on the true nature of lust will not only inform but challenge every Christian male. He shares that the main issue with sex is that it hinders us from seeing and savoring the glory of Christ and that not knowing the purpose of our sexual urges hurts us and dishonors God. So, for your joy and Christ’s honor, I commend this book to you. It is realistic, practical, and hope-giving because of uncompromising grace. The pure in heart will see God. If you want that insight, let Don’t Play with Me, I Am Life by John Lewis help you on your journey to manhood. It is a beautiful blend of grace and truth. John raises high standards of holiness while carefully avoiding legalism. His honest, biblical, while practical and compelling forthright is refreshing. “John Lewis has written a book about sexual purity that can be read and applied by both men and women. He shows us in practical and specific ways how we can grow toward God’s standard—absolute purity in mind and body. I highly recommend it.” —Ray Morgan, PhD, marriage and family therapist, Insight for the Family, Inc.

Princess must choose between a lifestyle of luxury (boring!) and cleaning up a mountainous mess. The only question is: will her parents let her have her way? This ecological fairy tale involves an unplanned pony ride up steep and stinky Trash Mountain, and the simple steps back to an entirely different future.

 

Set on a vast and beautiful prairie, the story follows royal farming folk (the Hays) on their journey as they take neighborly advice and transition from “living off the land” to living a life of consumerism. Seeking “to live like the rest,” King and Queen Hay learn some difficult lessons. Lucky for them, their princess has eyes and ears, a nose, and a will of her own. Retracing their steps together, with the help of a wise old pony, they find their way home to a life with a future, one they can enjoy together.

 

Suitable for children of all ages, this story is about rural North Americans, and it leaves us questioning what we are doing to our own kingdoms and what legacy we will leave our children.

Following this fairy tale is a list of resources to current research on the effects of burning garbage and the alternatives—an indispensible tool in the practical teaching of environmental truths.

From the Jungle colorfully brings to life the ecosystems and wildlife of our tropical rainforests through the eyes and original artwork of three children from Central and South America. In a wonderfully educational journey for young readers, Winnie, Mariela, and Pablo share how they experience the world’s demand for the rich, natural resources found in their homelands and suggest simple ways we can all save our rainforests.

Our thoughts, feelings and behaviour are all conditioned by our beliefs. And by the time a child is seven years old, 90 per cent of their personality is fully developed.

Why is it so important to teach children to believe in themselves? Because it is our primary belief system that creates our reality. We attract people, events and experiences that correspond with our beliefs.

The I Re-member series consists of seven books. The first six books are designed to teach children a positive belief system: I Do Deserve, I Am Worthy, I Am Powerful, I Am Lovable, I Am Valuable and I Am

Good. The last book, I Am Grateful, teaches children to be grateful for all experiences, as it is by being grateful that we can truly master the game of life.
