Every day that you awake is an opportunity to do great,

Get in a hurry there is no need to wait.

The clock is quickly ticking, you must move fast,

Look forward to your future and learn from the past.

You Are...

Above and not beneath! The First and not the Last!

The Beginning and not the End!

The Lender and not the Borrower!

You can climb the highest mountain if that is your desire,

Have more than one goal and plans to go higher.

Everything you want begins with a thought,

Remember that you are priceless and cannot be bought.

Happy! Able! Creative!

Take a look in the mirror and see your worth,

Your life was predestined before your birth.

What do you want? What do you want to be?

A nurse, a doctor, a judge, a teacher; it is possible can’t you see.

You Are...

Elegant! Balanced! Empowered! Assured! Courageous! Victorious! Powerful! Joyful! Driven! Strong! Ambitious! Successful!

You can be the very best that you can be,

You are living in the land of the brave and the free.

You are equipped with the very best,

You must stand firm through every test.

The shackles have been loosened; there are no more bars,

Walk in your destiny and know who you are!

Another Blessed Creation

    Mrs. Dixon's classes are currently working on a lapbook project demonstrating what they have learned about the Moroccan Market based on the Moroccan Market Writing Prompt. On their lapbook, each student must include a mini foldable, a paragraph about a personal travel or shopping experience that was similar to going to the Moroccan Market, and at least three vocabulary words with definitions. They are encouraged to make the lapbook as colorful and creative as possible and to make sure their lapbook appeals to as many of the five senses as possible.
