Welcome to ”Letting Them Lead” where myself (a preschool speech language pathologist) and my Mom, Laurie - a general education transitional kindergarten teacher with a background in early childhood education, are talking all about life in the early education world. Actually we are going deep into the concepts that foster our students’ connection to learning while honoring their individual development and letting them lead.
