This is the first post on my blog "Schoolhouse Thoughts" my play on the popular Schoolhouse ROCKS series. I felt that this was an appropriate title because it matches my teaching style in the classroom. Any time a song or fun can be added to an otherwise boring lesson I do my best to incorporate them. Although I was never planning on teaching in kindergarten, that is the most important thing that it has taught me so far: there is always time for a song, a dance, and a smile. There is no reason to take yourself too seriously.
