A Golden Bridge in the Dark

Posted on November 25, 2019 by Jennie

Driving at night.

Headed to see family far away.

 A golden bridge lights the way.

Happy Thanksgiving.

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.

    Sorry! “wonderful” 😉 I think typing with 10 fingers on the virtual keyboard of the tablet is not really the best.

    I love bridges, new and old. Is this the bridge in Boston, Rte. (pron. ‘root’…I’ll never change) 93, I believe?

      Actually it’s the Delaware Memorial Bridge. The one you’re thinking of in Boston is the Zakim Bridge- same style but white, not gold. I do love bridges, old and new.
