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.
A Teacher's Reflections 
Can’t live without them!
Yes!
Good quotes! I love books too.
Yes, and yes! Thank you, Deborah.
“A room without books is like a body without a soul.” Yesssss! The other day we were in the car and Charlotte was reading a book and she dropped it and my husband and I could not bend quite that far to retrieve it for her lol and she exclaimed…. “it’s so borning (she hasn’t quite grasped the word ‘boring’ yet lol), not reading a book is soooo borning!” and I said, “honey, I totally agree!!” LOL
I’m with Charlotte on not reading books. Sooooo borning.
OMG!!! That’s as good as it gets.
Love them all
🥰
Lovely quotes!
Charles has some of the best. Thank you.
You are welcome.
I agree with all of them
Me, too. 🙂
Ala Stephen King – I always carried 2 books in my toolbag. The 2nd to read when I finish the first.
We should all do this. Way to go, Don.
I can’t really pick a favorite here, love then all
Me, too!
The power of the human word knows no bounds. I think Charles’s quote is perhaps my favorite.
🙂
Agree, agree, agree. What a joy it is to find yourself immerse in a captivating story. I’m currently hooked on ‘Alone in Berlin’ by Hans Fallada.
I also enjoy reading this blog very much. Thanks Jenny. ❤️
Thank you, Ana.
