I love to research and learn how brain can be engaged in the classroom learning . Learning happens when children are feeling safe and good about activities they do.The resources I create for my students focus on making learning fun while focusing on critical and higher order thinking skills. Doing my best to help them stay in an inspired and motivated mental states gives me an immense deal of satisfaction. It inspires me to see them inspired and happy. I love to see young minds staying engaged and curious in my classroom. I thought it would be nice to share what works in my classroom to engage kids in creative and meaningful learning process. Also, I would love to share some kind of freebie on my blog from the resources I create for my storefront on Teachers Pay Teachers while I share how do I use them in my classroom and what kind of response I get from the kids.

Alphabet Glass craft for reading and phonics can be used in many ways. It can be used to teach alphabet names and sounds as well as to teach more advanced stages of reading such as blending individual sounds to form words. This craft activity uses letter tiles to help the preschooler identify and differentiate the alphabet names and sounds. You can also use cards with uppercase and lowercase alphabets printed together on one card.

Help the child put the blue tack at the back of the cutout and stick it on the glass.

Empower Children

Do You Have a Secret Formula ?


Empower children to boost their self esteem and expand your  parenting skills.


Children have natural tendency to feel powerful only if we know how  to maintain the gift that nature has endowed them with.


Empowering children is very powerful.


We get insights into our behavior patterns when we deal with children.


This awareness can help us to improve parenting skills.


The key lies in empowering ourselves to pass the gift to our children.


If we feel angry, resentful, frustrated with different aspects of our life, it is very easy to transfer these negative emotions to our kids. This is as much true for parents as for teachers.


Children sense what is happening around them easily. Their sensitive and pure energy field gives them this power.


However, we tend to pollute that field over the period of time through our negative feedback.


I think many programs available in the market that make claims to empower children feel empowered in a short period of one day camp or a few days are an eyewash.


It is not easy to erase the negative patterns that children or even adults have accumulated over the period of time in a few days or hours.


It takes constant effort through opening up our awareness with each passing day and treating our children as individuals and not possessions. Since children spend most part of their day either in schools or homes, it is very important that concerned parents and teachers reflect upon it.


We are taking taking the first step towards creating a positive and healthy world for our children if we create some space in each day of our life to connect with positive vibes.


This can help at creating fearless, confident and kind children. So get started to empower children and feel great!


One powerful method of making positive relationship with young kids is through reading with them.


Reading books with kids from the very early years can help boost their creative and thinking powers.


You can learn various reading techniques and skills that could help your child later in life.


Books can make them wiser and develop their ability to form a worldview that is broader. It all depends upon you how you choose to spend time with your child.


Quality time demands reflection and knowledge to help create happiness and freedom in the lives of our kids! So invest time to develop parenting skills that could help create healthy brain cells in children contributing to happiness and health.
