Shine Brightly Everyday!

Hi All,

I have been so extremely busy... needless to say, I have been blessed! It's amazing to see what God can do when you act on a leap of faith! To leave the security of a job  and do what you truly love... doesn't even seem like a job! I am having FUN! Check out this resource that I uploaded this morning!

Product DescriptionThis set of slides contains over 200 festive Christmas lights that can be used for a multitude of reasons! There are over six different colors in the packet. They can be used to help headline the different bulletin board statements such as: (1) Let Your Light Shine Brightly!; (2) We All Shine Bright in English Class; (3) Let Your Light Shine Before Men; (4) In This Class, We Light Up Our Lives; (5) I Shine When I Am Kind; (6) Bright Students Light Up Our Classroom; (7) Our Work Shines Bright… and many, many more! These lights might also be used in December to showcase “bright” work. As well, these Christmas lights can be utilized to manage center rotation and classroom management during the month of December!
