Poetry can be beautiful. When the words stick with you and paint a picture that is true to life, and true to what the heart feels, it needs to be read over and over again. Welcome November. Read on!

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.

    November is my month to just BE. I welcome it by doing less. It seems like the perfect time to take stock.

    November has a language all on its own. A little bit of fall, a little bit of winter and some days a smattering of spring.

  4. On my way to read the poem!
