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.

    I like to look around for ‘small wonders’. The pleasure of a dog to see us come home, or the intricate structure of a leaf. It’s all out there, we just have to see it. 🙂
    Best wishes, Pete.

      Me, too! This one of my favorite quotes of his. And to think that ‘day one’ of school every year I start reading Charlotte’s Web. Isn’t that wonderful? Best to you, Pete.
