Daily Habits and Affirmations for Transforming Your Classroom Part 2

The Transformational Teacher Podcast

Hey Transformational Teacher

Today, we will cover the next 5 ways, focusing on Daily Spiritual Habits and Affirmations.

6. Daily Time in the Word

   • Spending time in God’s word daily strengthens your faith and provides guidance. God has literally given us the handbook to life which is our bible; we just have to open it and use it.

   • Scripture: Psalm 119:105 - "Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path."

7. Incorporate Moments of Silent Prayer

   • Taking moments throughout the day for silent prayer helps maintain a connection with God.

   • Scripture: Ephesians 6:18 NIV - "And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people."

8. Speak Life Over Your Students (Use Affirmations)

   • Using positive, life-affirming words and affirmations builds self-esteem and aligns thoughts with God's truth.

   • Scripture: Proverbs 18:21 - "Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit."

   • Affirmations for Students: I am capable,I am kind, I am lovedI am important, and I am diligent and put forth my best effort daily.

9. Speak Life Over Yourself (Using Scripture/Affirmations)

   • It is key that as you speak life and pour into your students, you do the same for yourself. If you are filled up and encouraged, you have more to pour out, especially in challenging situations.

   • Scripture: Proverbs 6:2 NIV - "You have been trapped by what you said, ensnared by the words of your mouth."

   • Affirmations for Teachers: I am a transformational teacher, I educate, empower, and equip my students daily, I am guided by the Holy Spirit, I am making a difference daily, and I have self-control.

10. Model Positive Values

    • Demonstrating good character and modeling how to handle situations, which is displaying the Fruit of the Spirit in your interactions with students, helps to create a supportive classroom environment. Show patience when a student is struggling or demonstrate kindness through encouraging words.

    • Scripture: Galatians 5:22-23 - "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control."
