Hi my name is Haley. I love to teach playful classes that inspire storytelling, problem solving, and connection. My teaching practice has been influenced by the Social Constructivist and Reggio Emilia approach to learning. In Reggio Emilia, “the image of a child is viewed as strong, capable, competent, and full of potential.” For the social constructivist perspective I refer to Vygotsky's quote, “It is through others that we develop into ourselves." In my practice this means creating a SAFE, INCLUSIVE, KIND, and PLAYFUL environment for all. Creating a space that supports learner AGENCY is top priority. Learners are seen as co-creators of their play, and the role of the teacher is to facilitate conversation and highlight learning opportunities. Keeping the "Whole Child" in mind, my goal is to support the academic, physical, cognitive, and social emotional needs of all learners.
