Posted on December 27, 2018 by Jennie

Dear Teachers, As the joy of the holidays fade and winter begins, we are now plunging into the busy season of teaching children. This is the time we need to be at our very best. Children are depending on us. That can feel overwhelming. Here are 10 videos from Norah Colvin to inspire you. From reading aloud, to science, to making a connection with children…to Elton John as a little boy – these will fill you up. Laugh, cry, and be inspired to educate children. I certainly am. -Jennie-

About Jennie

I have been teaching preschool for over forty 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.
