Learning to be a teacher, one day at a time...
Welcome to The Curious Kindergarten, a blog about the discoveries my students and I make in our full-day kindergarten! A bit about me: I have been teaching Kindergarten for several years and have recently started implementing some philosophies from Reggio Emilia into my classroom. Our learning journey is a work in progress, and I hope visitors view it as just that: an opportunity to reflect and grow each day. Thanks for stopping by!
According to research, close to half of teachers leave the profession within the first five years. I am in my ninth year of teaching, yet I feel more passionate and inspired with each passing year. Don't get me wrong, it has not been easy; there have been disappointments and heartache along the way. However, what I have learned so far is this: it's not about weathering the storm, it's about learning how to dance in the rain.
