What Does it Mean to Be Good?

Before anything else, a place for childhood has to be a great place to live.
Jim Greenman, educator, designer, author, 1949-2009

"There are many things good teachers of young children need to have. The first is a spirit of willingness. They need to be willing to look at the world with a fresh approach..." So writes Carol Hillman in her book, Teaching Four-Year-Olds: A Personal Journey.

"Good teachers of young children should have a sense of fun...

A good teacher of young children needs to take great pleasure in setting up a classroom that allows children to explore, to question, to work alone or in a group or with an adult...

A good teacher of young children needs to be willing to be the same kind of learner she expects each child in her class to be."
