Posts from Your Archives – Lunchtime conversations in the Classroom: It’s Important by Jennie Fitzkee

About Jennie

I have been teaching preschool for over thirty-five years. This is my passion. I believe that children have a voice, and that is the catalyst to enhance or even change the learning experience. Emergent curriculum opens young minds. It's the little things that happen in the classroom that are most important and exciting. That's what I write about. I was a live guest on the Kelly Clarkson Show. I am highlighted in the seventh edition of Jim Trelease's million-copy bestselling book, "The Read-Aloud Handbook" because of my reading to children. My class has designed quilts that hang as permanent displays at the National Liberty Museum in Philadelphia, the Fisher House at the Boston VA Hospital, and the Massachusetts State House in Boston.

    Great to see you on Sally’s blog, Jennie. Always a great read, and well-deserved too. I left a comment over there.
    Best wishes, Pete.

    I’ve said it before – to and about Jennie – but it bears repeating. If every student started out with a teacher like Jennie they’d all LOVE learning!

      No worries, Marcia. I always love hearing from you, and time doesn’t matter. And, I love catching up with your posts. For example, I just ordered Life, by Cynthia Rylant, and you recommend that book a while ago. It is wonderful!
