What to do Wednesday: Thankful Thoughts

Dear Lesson Plan Toolbox,

I am having all of the thankful vibes today and I just wanted to express my gratitude to this online world of educators. I have no idea where I would be without the help of teacher friends I have found online. I'm a primary teacher, but I have connected with middle school and high school teachers on this journey and it's been wonderful. To have a community of people who think like you and are working in similar environments and circumstances this year, is an incredible gift to celebrate. 

I am so grateful for all of the collaboration and words of encouragement on those days when I literally thought I couldn't face another. I'm grateful to know that people are opening their lives up to complete strangers so we can all be better teachers and more importantly better humans. Even as I'm typing this, I am getting all of the feels right now.

So as we head into a day of celebrating all the things we are thankful for, I may not get a chance to hop on social media, but I want you all to know how thankful I am for you! You have made this year so much happier for me. If you have not joined the world of #instagramteachers, then I highly encourage you to get on board. You won't regret it!

Thankful Thoughts

Dear Thankful Thoughts,

This was such a fun post to read! It made my heart happy and gave me all the feels for Thanksgiving too. We are blessed to live in a day and age where even though we literally can't be together, we are able to find a way to communicate and collaborate.

As I was reading your post, I thought how amazing it would be if the whole world of social media could be as positive as you wrote! Even if it's just one day where no one was allowed to post anything negative from how dry the turkey was at dinner or how tight your pants might feel afterwards. It would be a day of literally positive posts ONLY. Instead of thinking of that dry turkey, focus on the jokes Dad told at the dinner table or the movies we watched as a family. Oh, does that make my heart my smile.

If you're reading this blog, then I encourage you this Thanksgiving to do this! Let's turn the world of social media into a literal world of kindness, even if for just one day! We are teachers, we can make BIG things happen!

Happy Thanksgiving!
