Dear Parents, 

This month, we are focusing on PEACE for our Scripture and affirmation memorization.  I know for myself, it's something I crave everyday, throughout my day.  I desire to "walk in peace" and not be easily distracted or provoked by the different circumstances that arise.  I believe this happens when we change our thoughts and affect our lives by what we say.

Do you ever wonder why we do these monthly Scriptures and affirmations?  Miss Winkler shared an excerpt from an article with us last week: 
"The messages that you allow to permeate your brain, to really sink in, have the power to actually change your brain, causing new neuron pathways to be formed. And then, of course, new pathways lead to new thoughtsnew thoughts lead to new actions and new words spoken."
The human brain is made up of an estimated 100 billion neurons making a total of 100 trillion neural connections. 
 
God created our brains with every single one of our neurons to function like this. 

Isn't that something!?!  From a biblical perspective, I know the power that our words have, and this confirms what I am learning daily from a book I am reading, "Switch On Your Brain Everyday" by Dr. Caroline Leaf.   What we think about truly affects us both physically and emotionally. In fact, Dr. Leaf asserts that fear alone triggers more than 1,400 known physical and chemical responses in our bodies, activating more than thirty different hormones! So what messages are we putting in our brains? What are we thinking about?
Every day we desire to cultivate an atmosphere in our classrooms where knowledge & truth can permeate, not only the brains of our students, but their hearts.  They are the next generation of world-changers! They need positive words and thoughts in order to be all that they can be. (So do we!)
