Transformation of Teachers – the Tiny Steps

Tosin 
         I have been really encouraged by the small changes I am seeing in the lives of teachers that I have been working with.  Tosin talks about how she viewed biblical integration before (adding a moral to a lesson) and after (a deeper concept acknowledging God as Creator).  Doris has a box of activities for the students to do when they are finished their work, and a tin of pencils already sharpened in an attempt to both engage students and make the most of every minute in her classroom.  Jennifer has set up centers in her Kindergarten class.  She borrows books regularly and attends seminars paying out of her own pocket.  Ego shares how her perspective on children has changed (see January blog).  Bell-Gam came in this week to share about how it went when she tried to make her students talk more in class.  Spencer and Ngozi have gone to other schools to lead trainings on Christian Education. Praise God for tiny steps!
