The Moral of the Story

Last week, I gave my year 6 English class an assignment. They were to do a synopsis of a short story; perhaps a fairy tale they knew really well, a picture book, or something similar. They were to give a basic summary including the characters and the moral of the story.

While I wouldn't necessarily call myself very religious, I consider myself to be a very faithful person, seeking guidance and support from up above, believing and hoping in a power much greater than myself that watches over us all.

Today, when looking over the collected assignments, I came across one written about Cinderella. It's amazing how the words of a child, even the misspelled words of a child, can seem profound. I'm so very thankful to have the opportunity to work with children each and every day.
