Mrs. Bryant are you Rich?…Am I Rich?

As our day came to an end and were getting
ready to go home, one of my student’s asked me; “Mrs. Bryant, are you
RICH?”
I chuckled and handed her, her snack and I said, “No,
why do you ask?”
When I looked into her eyes, something in my spirit nudged
me and I quickly changed my response to, “Wait, NO I AM, I AM the richest
person in this school building, because you are my student!” She must have not
understood what I meant, because she quickly turned to her friend and told her,
“See, I told you, she is rich!” and in an instant they both looked at me
with such admiration, I was truly humbled!
It may sound so teacher cliché, but this is the
truth! In her five year old thinking, she may not have understood my response,
but I know that one day she will grow up and remember those words and realize
that I was not talking about monetary richness, but life richness!
I say this because, as we walked out to our pick-up
area, her words resounded in the inner most part of my soul and triggered so
many reasons on why I AM RICH!
You see, it’ s our natural human instinct to think
about “richness” solely as monetary gains and dollars in our bank account, but
this is not necessarily true!
Think about all the people in the world who are fully
loaded, yet have an emptiness, a void that is destroying them little by
little! With no hope, no love, an empty life! They are poor in spirit, but rich
in money!
So yes I am Rich!
I am Rich with a spirit filled life!
I am Rich with a husband who loves and cares for me!
I am Rich with children I adore and love!
I am Rich with parents who taught me right from
wrong!
I am Rich with sisters who are my best friends!
I am Rich with brothers who are strong, brave, and
courageous!
I am Rich with students I teach, love, and nurture!

I am Rich and Blessed to be called Teacher!
And so are you! ~Tchr888

🫶🏼I love sharing about connections my students make during a lesson. Especially for #englishlanguagelearning students.

Teacher Tip 1,255 knowing and understanding a student’s #zoneofproximaldevelopment in addition to understanding how they are thinking can take any lesson from understanding, to applying, and transferring that knowledge and skill into other content areas! Take a look and watch my students in action! I love being a #duallanguageteacher

It literally just hit me, this is my Birthday mont It literally just hit me, this is my Birthday month. 😬
🤍 We adopted a new Reading and Language Arts curriculum this year and I have been in over my head with it, but loving it.
🫠I like to try new things and really give curriculum an opportunity when it’s new (to our district) and implement it without supplementing it. I mean how will one know if it works, if we don’t try it? Right?🫣
🫶🏼Anyhow, my birthday is coming up and totally looking forward to another year of adventures, journeys, and growing! One can never stop learning 💓
