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.
Happy Thanksgiving, Jennie!

Lovely commercial. Nothing like building up your community.
Hear, hear! I knew you would love this commercial, especially the ending. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family, Pete. Are you with Ryan and his family?
We’re home. We had a great eleven-day visit with them. Since they both work from home now, we got to spend time with them and Jack each day. They held an early Thanksgiving for us while we were out there, and then they hosted another dinner today. I owe you a letter and will send one out in the next few days. Happy Thanksgiving, my friend.
That’s so wonderful. It sounds like a perfect Thanksgiving, and nobody cares if your dinner was early. Steve and I never had an eleven-day visit. Five days, tops. Thank you for keeping in touch, my friend!
Jennie, I hope you and yours had a very, very Happy Thanksgiving!
Thanks, Bruce. We did. Best to you.
This video honestly warms my heart 💛
Mine, too. Thank you.
Always welcome dear Jennie ❤️🙏
Thank you, Kamal!
Happy Thanksgiving, Jennie!
Thank you, Jacqui!
Thankful every day. May we be kind and open to ALL and spread the gratitude. ❤
Hear, hear, Pam!
Happy Thanksgiving, Jennie!
Thank you, Steve. I hope all is well with you.
Always welcome Jennie 😊
Thank you, Kamal!
Oh, Jennie, that was absolutely wonderful! I’m sorry I’m so late, but I actually think I was able to enjoy it a lot more today than I would have earlier. Huge hugs.
I’m so glad you liked this, Teagan. You’re right about being able to enjoy it later, with no rush. Hugs!!
Oh my gosh, what a sweet video and that ending, sounds like a picture book! Have a wonderful season of holidays, Jennie!
Yes!! Thank you, Marcia. Best to you, enjoy the holidays.
Love this. So heartwarming!
It really is! Many thanks.
Certainly shows that actions can speak more loudly than words.
Yes!
