Today's quote from 365 Days Of Wonder!
Let that sink in🌞

" An act of kindness never dies, but extends the invisible undulations of its influence over breadth of centuries"
In 365 Days Of Wonder there is a quote for every day of the year, this week (on September 9th) I read this quote that caught my eye.

What a lovely book! Full of inspiring messages, quotes, and excerpts. Perfect for a classroom or just to have by your side to remember the most important things in life aren't always what they seem. We sometimes get too busy trying to get through our days to remember to appreciate and practice simple acts of kindness and acceptance.

365 Days of Wonder: Mr.Browne‘s Book of Precepts written by R.J. Palacio is a fiction book that has inspiring quotes for every day of the year. The quotes range from history, love, friendship, courage, and kindness. This would be a fun thing to do with the class as a bell ringer. We could start the morning by reading a quote and then writing about it or the teacher can simply ask comprehension questions about it. #ucflae3414su19

DeannaP https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Comprehension-Questions-for-365-Days... An ESOL strategy to go with the lesson is to “continually monitor students comprehension” the teacher can do that by having the students write the quote and what they think it means in a journal. 5y
DeannaP An E.D strategy to go with it is to “highlight patterns, critical features, big ideas, and relationships” since they would be finding the main idea of the quote and comparing it to their background knowledge. 5y
DrSpalding This is such a fabulous book. Did you know there is an app? Its called The Daily Wonder App!

Saw this one in the kid‘s section at the library yesterday, so naturally had to break my ban on buying/checking out books. 🤣 And long story short, I‘ve read about half of it and I am loving this book! 💜 Wish I owned it.

"Smile though your heart is aching
Smile even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky, you'll get by
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll see the sun come shining through for you."
-Nat King Cole

Kaye Love the song. I‘m not so good at smiling on my bad days. I look more like a pit bull with indigestion in those days. 6y

I bought this last month, and thought it would be fun to share a quote each day for 2018. But then I put it on my bookshelf and totally forgot until now.... so looks like I'll be posting the first 6 days today. 🙈🙈 How bad is it that I feel this far behind in the FIRST WEEK of the new year! 😆 #365DaysofWonder

SandyW I often feel that way. 😕 You just have to reset your start date! 😁 and then you won't be behind! 6y
QueenJen I'm often behind. Once you just give into it, you'll recognise the joy in the slower pace. 😉🥃 6y

I am an expression of the divine, just like a peach is, just like a fish is. I have a right to be this way...I can't apologize for that, nor can I change it, nor do I want to... We will never have to be other than who we are in order to be successful...We realize that we are as ourselves unlimited and our experiences valid. It is for the rest of the world to recognize this, if they choose.
Alice Walker, The Color Purple

Thinking about starting my ELA classes with journalling instead of reading next year--this would be a great source of writing prompts. I also want to use Wonder, the novel it came from, as a class novel or in literature circles, so the kids would like the connection.
