MYI Early Childhood Reflections
I see this blog as a dwelling place for my enthusiasm about "all things early childhood." I teach 3 year olds and I love it. I also mentor new early childhood teachers.

I enjoy exploring why I do things a certain way - the "theory" behind the "practice." I'd love for this blog to be a soft place for teachers, parents, and caregivers to land, to consider a variety of educational topics, and perhaps help us understand little ones a little better.

Theme: early childhood, preschool, exploration, engineering, parenting, curriculum, problem solving, discipline, creativity, critical thinking, reflection

I was a high school mathematics teacher for eight years before my current work as mathematics educator for in-service teachers.

Assessing and Teaching K-10 mathematics
I believe that K-10 mathematics is about developing students' mathematical thinking and communication capacities first, and, knowing mathematics next.

Experience has also taught me that mathematics is best learned in the context of solving problems and doing mathematical investigations. This blog is my contribution to narrowing the gap between theory and practice in mathematics teaching and learning.
