Share one or two things you learned in this course that will change your approach in the classroom.

I learned just how important biblical integration in the classroom setting is. While many of my lessons do incorporate a biblical framework, I have many that do not. Going forward, I plan to integrate all my lessons with a biblical framework. Even if that biblical framework is not utilized every single day, I will be striving to do so moving forward. This was a great course, and I am so thankful I took it!

I will be diligent in creating units, lessons, and learning experiences based on and imbedded in and with scripture. I will also have the students re-evaluate their thinking with journals and goal setting and what the Bible teachings have done to make them think differently or help them grow
-
I will view my role as a mentor to my students in the classroom.

Entering into this upcoming school year, one goal I have is to foster relationships with my students, so that I can shepherd and mentor them in faith and love. I hope by doing this I can pass down both values and truth to the next generation. I also want to make sure that parents feel fully supported within my role and in the school. Students and families alike should have a joy when coming to the Christian Schools and I want to help in the building of that as much as I can this next year and many years to come.

I want to solidify my calling as a Christian school educator, to really understand how God wants me to use my giftings in this setting. We do lots of biblical integration in my classroom, but this course has made me think about more intentionality in my lesson plans, especially in math where it’s harder to make natural connections.
