Moby Max is a K-8th grade standards-aligned learning platform that teachers can use to assist with differentiated and classroom learning goals. Through this program, classrooms can earn "reward points" for achieving classroom goals. 

Two weeks ago, our second grade learned that they had earned $20 through their Moby Max Rewards program. The company encourages teachers to use these Reward dollars as an avenue of celebration for particular milestones that the class accomplished.

One news report recently shared: It's been nearly a month since Hurricane Ian changed lives forever, and many people still need to figure out where to live.

In Lee County, the use of mobile homes or travel trailers is being allowed as temporary housing for people repairing their permanent homes. And you don’t have to look far to see how many are doing just that.

“‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of Mine, you did for Me.” Matthew 25:40 

A few days ago, my Kindergarten granddaughter, who is also my occasional car pool buddy, began our commute to school with this question:

If I would ask what destination holds special memories for your family, how would you respond?

Maybe it would be the location of a special family reunion, endearing visits to grandparents’ homes, the location of that fabulous “once in a lifetime” vacation, or just a frequent treasured destination.

JESUS IS WITH US THROUGH THE STORMS!

But Jesus immediately said to them: “Take courage! It is I. Don’t be afraid.” Matthew 14:27 

Currently, all eyes are on Florida, as Hurricane Ian continues to batter most of Florida with catastrophic winds, rain, and storm surges throughout most of Florida's regions. Hourly weather updates have been grabbing our attention as well as guiding our prayer petitions, especially when we have loved ones or own property in Florida. If you have ever experienced being caught in a hurricane, you know first-hand how frightening this type of storm can be.
