Not exactly the attitude I was hoping for.
But today, for some reason - maybe after giving it some thought - students were generally more positive and tried to think of ways they could pray, fast, and give alms this Lenten season in preparation for Easter. We proceeded to put these plans on hearts (that they cut out themselves), and I pinned them to the bulletin board. I think my favorite part during the process was when one student (who usually enjoys being difficult with me) said, "Ms. Foyle has my heart" to which I replied, "Yes I do" and smiled. It was pretty good timing...
After hearing from some students at lunch and after reading some of the kiddos' plans for the season, I am highly impressed with some intended sacrifices - no TV, no video games (during the week), no fighting with siblings, and more.
Those were just the kinds of ideas to get me in a better mood for Valentine's Day tomorrow.
And speaking of Valentine's Day, check out these play-on-words valentines that we'll be handing out to our students tomorrow. (We figured they'd get enough candy from each other.)
