This classroom is about accepting one another, encouraging each other and learning together. We will show kindness, work hard, take risks, make mistakes and SHOW THE LOVE along the way! We are working TOGETHER to be the best we can be and appreciate all of God's creation around us!
We want to learn to be bucket fillers everyday in God's amazing world!
Our school theme this year is based on Philippians 2:1-4 (Imitating Christ’s Humility)
"Therefore if you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any common sharing in the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind. Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others."
As a class, it is our hope that others will notice that we are showing love in all that we say and do as we explore, experience and evaluate the world around us. I look forward to the year ahead and can't wait to learn, share, laugh, maybe even cry and overall be real. It's going to be a great!
A Little About Me!
My name is Mrs. Karen Lynn Miller. I have been teaching primary age children since 1995. This is my 22nd year teaching at Calvin Christian School but my 30th year teaching overall. Hard to believe.
As I have been educating for years now, I have to say I absolutely love working with children and seeing a spark ignite when they understand something new. I also love how they teach me new things everyday.
A few of my favourite things I'm grateful for include, my beautiful family, flower gardening, reading books, kayaking at sunset and spending time at the little, cozy cabin my Mom and Dad built when I was just 3 years old. God is so good to me.
I live with my husband, Gary and daughter, Lauren, who graduated in June from the University of Manitoba. She is now doing an after degree in Medical Radiologic Technology at RRCC. What? How can that be? I just taught her kindergarten (I really did too!) I also have a sweet 13 year old Yorkie named Belle. I'm one proud Mama.
