About Me

This blog is for nerding out about education, learning and school. Currently I'm an early childhood education student, freaking out about what i'm learning. The people garden speaks to the concept of our schools and learning spaces as being places to cultivate people-hood, where we as educators can help kids grow and flourish as humans, and become more human ourselves.
