    Hi everyone! I was wondering if some of you have a “school” or family motto, and if so, would you mind sharing? I am looking for somehting which I can print out and put up, or use to remind my little ones why we do what we do. Thank you and blessings!

    Peace, Joy, Love, Kindness, Encouragement, Contentment and Fun!

    This is the “Atmosphere” of our home motto also.  It helps for mom too.  If any one of us is not acting this way in our home, then we need to look into why and change it.

    Blessings,

    We don’t have a family motto, but as far as printing something out – I found Sheldon’s Primary Language Lessons on google books and lesson IV has a poem that I printed out and taped to the wall to encourage the kids in their learning:

    Little Rills made wider streamlets;

    Streamlets swell the river’s flow;

    Rivers join the ocean billows,

    Onward, onward as they go.

     

    Life is made of smallest fragments,

    Shade and sunshine, work and play:

    So may we with greatest profit,

    Learn a little every day.

     

    Tiny seeds make boundless harvests;

    Drops of rain compose the showers;

    Seconds make the flying minutes,

    And the minutes make the hours.

     

    Let us hasten, then, and catch them

    As they pass us on the way;

    And with honest true endeavor,

    Learn a little every day.

    We have a longer “mission statement” that we all worked on together, but for the motto we never found anything better than Charlotte’s:  I Am, I Can, I Ought, I Will.  I never really ran into a problem that couldn’t be addressed from this motto.  Laughing

    One motto we have had through the years, more for behavior than for school per se, is Protect the Younger, Respect the Older.
