About Jennie

I have been teaching preschool for over thirty 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 am highlighted in the the new edition of Jim Trelease's bestselling book, "The Read-Aloud Handbook" because of my reading to children. My class has designed quilts that hang as permanent displays at both the National Liberty Museum in Philadelphia, and the Fisher House at the Boston VA Hospital.

    I had seen the video of Mel and Max Brooks and loved it. I had not seen the Matchstick video. The animation wordlessly explains the idea of social distancing, brilliant! Thank-you for sharing!

    Wow! Those are great videos, Jennie. The safety matches one is particularly clever and illustrative. Thanks for sharing them with me.
