I have a fourth grade boy who will be making First Communion with the second graders. Any unique ideas for a gift? I imagine he'll get the 'usual' stuff from family members.

private vs public

by frazzled

May 12, 2010

How much does a teacher make in a Private school compared to public school? I am in Florida with 14 years experience and a Masters Degree. I am tired of discipline problems, FCAT etc and interviewing for a position in a smaller, Bible based school.

Ooii Salary varies widely from school to school. I don't think it would hurt to interview, and then if you are offered a position you can decide from there (at least I think that's how I would approach it).

I've worked in both public and private schools, and have experienced about the same amount of behavior issues in each setting. (I understan...See More

RE: A Beka Reading

by mhugs

May 15, 2010

I am trying to locate a few more copies of an older reader

Merry Go Round. It was part of the A Beka reading program, but is no longer available. If your school has some copies on a back shelf unused I would be interested in them.

Prayers at the beginning of class

by Zodea

May 15, 2010

How do most of you handle prayer at the beginning of class?

My kids are complaining (it's the end of the year, I guess that's what they are supposed to do) because I gave them a prayer sheet at the beginning of the year and they don't like getting it out to pray. It has a variety of prayers including many that they don't know/have memorize...See More

RS Middle school: We take prayer requests at the beginning of Bible, then one of the students combines those requests into a prayer. No two days are the same and the students look forward to hearing someone say a prayer specifically for their need.

Good luck!

Zodea What do you mean at the beginning of Bible? Is this a once a day thing or 6 times a day? My experience is that once you allow them to make prayer requests, student will drag it out and seriously interfere with class time.

We are planing to invite our first grade religious education students and their parents to a "Tour of the Church." Any ideas to make this fun, interesting and informative for both the children and their families. Thanks for any ideas!
