MY EDUCATIONAL BELIEFS:

Know your babies. Affectively. Behaviorally. Culturally. Developmentally. Educationally.

​

Open your eyes. Observe. Reflect. Act.


You've got to first Be Love, so that you can get to Be Challenging.


Be an Upstander not a Bystander.


Don't make assumptions.

Ask questions.

Listen without planning your response, just listen.


Play. Often.


Cultural awareness, responsiveness, proficiency, agility... it all exists on a continuum; it takes work, or you slide. 

Keep learning.


Teach for growth. 


Self-care is essential. Take care of you.


Be the change.


We all need windows and mirrors to grow; don't assume they're only for kids.


As a teacher, you're one stop on a long road...but the memories made and emotions experienced leave a lasting impression. Love the journey.
