| Introduction | Welcome to our blog and all the adventures we have in the crazy world of teaching! We got our start simply as three new teachers who met in 2006 at the start of the school year. Brand new to the profession, we latched on together to survive a stressful first year experience. Soon a wonderful friendship would bloom. In 2008, we decided to start graduate school and all chose the Curriculum and Instruction path. Together we learned everything from the value of collaboration to the importance of technology integration even at the early childhood level. After each semester, we became more and more inspired to help others understand their vision for being something more than just an average, everyday teacher. In 2010, we decided it was time to share that thought with others and wrote a proposal to Frog Street Press which was accepted. Each year following, the Polka Dots have been so thankful to have bene invited back to join Fanny and all her friends at the SPLASH conference. We don’t just consider ourselves to be best friends, but rather that we share a life-long friendship full of continually learning, growing, and striving to the best we can be! |
