Posts on Bess Lesson Plans

If you are keen to access my Baha’i Education lesson plans let me know who you are and how you are using them and I will send you a password to those posts.  As I sometimes reflect on the lessons I decided that I would require this for people wishing to read them, but I do like to share them and notice I have many visits from people looking for lesson plans.  There are some great sites in my links you will enjoy accessing, so don’t forget to look down the side of the site.

Within my posts I often put other links that I have found useful.  I may do a public reflection post on the whole year to share- a kind of summary so look out for that one.  My latest resource purchase has been a series of Anticolouring books, which are useful for all sorts of teaching projects, art, maths, imaginative thinking, and spiritual education.  I must review that and recommend them to you! I was so excited to look through them as I ordered them on line.

email junepaisaATyahoo.com.au  (at symbol, I put it this way to avoid spam if I can)
and just introduce yourself and let me know how you are putting my lesson plans and reflections to use.

By the way many of my lesson plans are of course based on the Ruhi Resources, or on the Peace Pack series, but I do like all teachers, adapt and collect additional resources, like stories, games, black line masters, and a method of delivering the classes that suits my students – and I am also writing original songs for my students to learn on themes like Thankfulness etc.

Holidays – snakes

So you’ve listened out for the call as you are driving – “there it is…. look …. a” do you catch it or do you miss it? We did not miss a cassowary walking by the side of the road, but Nana who had just gone home did. Oh no! Then today I missed a snake moment- yes there was a snake in a deck chair at the children’s swimming lesson and I was at home cutting the hair of the eldest. I’m glad I missed that one, but happy that Dad kept his head and the snake was dismissed to over the fence.

I’ve just received a pile of wonderful, wonderful books which I had on order through the internet, amazon- and I am so happy with them. They are to assist me in taking creative writing classes and lunchtime writing club. The ones I really love the most at the Anticolouring books. They are going to be so much fun and I cannot wait to have feedback from the kids about how they feel about doing the activities in them.

It’s been a very relaxing holiday. I’ve been swimming in the ocean with the children. They are progressing well in their swimming which is good as we hadn’t been for ages. I am really pleased for them! My daughter in particular is doing really well! Good on you!

Bess lesson planning – well I have been doing some background reading and will be covering the stories of Baha’u'llah, Muhammad and the Bab and doing some virtues, games and maybe some of the anticolouring activities with them as there are some useful things in there for lots of kinds of lessons!

I’ll do some photo posts (: later but I am in the middle of uploading all the family beach treks, rainforest walks etc. We really have had a great holiday.

It is very sad about Rob Guest dying though, and also about the family man who was taken by a crocodile, life can be so fleeting.
