Over the past 14 years I have taught in 4 different elementary schools. 3 of those elementary schools have had eagles as our mascot. Over the years I have developed a fondness for the great bird. I feel that Eagle pride.

Isaiah 40:31 also has been my life verse... "But those that hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will rise up on wings like eagles, they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint." Sounds nice, right? All these years of teaching make me tired at times... I still love it, but there are moments that I need to remember that I am like an eagle - the need to rise up over the negative circumstances.
All that said, I decided to make up some posters for my classroom with eagles. I want my students to take that Eagle pride and run/fly with it. These started out as something just for my room, but then last night I realized that there are so many others out there with the same mascot.
This contains 4 areas of posters...
Classroom Rules
Character Pillars
Healthy Habits
Journal and Brainstorm Pages

my school mascot is the bluejay! alewis725@msn.com
ReplyDeleteOur school mascot is the eagle also. We are a PBIS school and also incorporate the 7 Habits of Happy Kids into our classrooms. Your pack would enhance and add to what I'm trying to teach and instill in my students. I love your character pillars and healthy habits - they would lead to some great discussions! I also like how you're incorporating writing into this with the student journals. Great job - I'd love to win :-) JWtchr@comcast.net
