I’m back!

Hi everyone, I am so excited to be back to this blog of mine! A lot has happened since I last posted, and I have some big ideas for using this little space, so I hope you’ll stay with me for this journey.

Because of all of the changes, both in my life, and to my blog, I feel the need to start over a bit.  So here is a little introduction for those of you who are new to preschool ponderings:

I’m Erin. I recently started a non-profit Early Learning Center with a group of incredible Early Childhood Teachers.  When i’m not teaching myself how to use Quickbooks, figuring out payroll, and brainstorming marketing ideas, I teach the Pre-K class.  I have worked with children of all ages, but I love the challenges that Pre-K presents.  These kiddos are super smart, and its my job to get them ready for kindergarten, but also to make sure that they get to be creative and imaginative.

I have also recently started a store on TeachersPay Teachers, where I am able to offer a lot of the materials that I use with my own class.  I will be using this blog to share the ways that my class uses these tools, as well as a lot of the other fun projects that we are working on.

If that wasn’t enough, I am also in the middle of writing a book all about implementing Reggio Philosophies in Standards-based ECE classrooms, as well as creating a curriculum for Reggio-inspired Standards-based schools. Whew. Yup, I’m just a little busy, but that’s what life’s about right?

Hopefully you’ll all stick with me and see what I’ve got to share!
