What is Living Simply? What is a Minimalist Lifestyle?



Living simply means focusing on time and the moment. There is less of our thinking on objects. Our happiness comes from within not from consumption. We should not be spending time wanting something new. Our time should be spent creating memories.



What are the benefits of a minimalist lifestyle? First of all, minimalism creates a stress-free life. Minimalism lets you save money allowing you to be financially and spiritually wealthy. Minimalism allows you to have less pressure because you don't feel the need to keep up with your neighbors. Minimalism allows you more time because you won't be worrying about other things.



More time and more money will mean that you will have more freedom to do the activities that you want to. When you remove the clutter and all of the distractions gone from your life, you will find that you are more organized. Your mind will be focused and clear-headed. Organization allows you a greater sense of calm. This sense of calm will allow you to focus on the value of your life and what really makes you happy. When you focus on what makes you happy, you get rid of the negative and increase the positive vibes in your life.



Would you like to be more creative? I would love to have more money and time to be more creative. When you are more creative, you will find a better fulfillment in life. Remember, minimalism is a lifestyle change in which you add value to your life. In a minimalist lifestyle, you are no longer shackled by things. Minimalism is a tool that can bring you time and money.

We've done two pages per day as part of our reading workshop minilessons. They're writing the notes and responses in their journals. The grammar connection on infinitives really threw them for a loop~it was the first time that they've encountered this verbal. Melissa

Back to School Bumper Sticker Activity and Printable

Image
Here in Middle Tennessee, we go back to school in two weeks, so it's the perfect time to begin thinking about icebreaker activities.  My Back to school Bumper Sticker Printable and Activity includes 20 different bumper stickers, 10 color and 10 black and white. There are 2 bumper stickers per page. Use this as an icebreaker in the following way: Students brainstorm some bumper stickers that they've seen and what those bumper stickers say about the person driving the car. Then, the students will write down several bumper sticker sayings that represent them and their ideas or beliefs. Show students some examples of completed bumper stickers. Afterwards, give each student a copy of the bumper sticker template. Each student designs and creates a bumper sticker that represents him or her. After students have created their bumper stickers, they walk around the room reading each other's bumper stickers. This activity is a fun and creati...

The Forms of Personal Pronouns

Image
The form of a personal pronoun shows how it can be used in a sentence. Pronouns used as subjects and predicate nominatives are in the subject form. Examples:  He and I went to the post office. The winner of the marathon is she. Pronouns used as direct objects and indirect objects of verbs and objects of the preposition are in the object form. Examples: Mr. Garcia helped him and me with yesterday's homework. The clerk gave us the package. when is Theo going to give the flowers to her? Possessive forms (my, mine, your, yours, his, her, hers, its, their, theirs, our, ours) are used to show ownership or possession. Examples: My sister had to turn the box on its end to get it through the door. A mother bear is very protective of her cubs. Personal Pronouns: Singular Subject: I, you, he, she, it Plural Subject: we, you, they Singular object: me, you, him, her, it Plural object: us, you, them Singular possessive: my, mine, you...
