Welcome!

Hello and welcome to my little (and  new) blog! I'm Miss Haring and this is my first year as a teacher. I absolutely love everything about being a teacher from greeting the kids at the door in the morning to dreaming up engaging centers and workshop mini lessons. I decided to begin the journey into teaching after graduating from college so I went back to get my certification. It's been the most amazing experience so far and I'm so lucky to have found my life's calling.

I'm beginning this blog after starting the year off in a maternity leave position in kindergarten. Boy, did I learn a lot about teaching in those first few months! Not only did I learn a lot teaching those crazy kinders each and every day but it energized my teaching and gave me a lot of ideas. I called my blog "Miss Haring's Garden" because I'd like to make this a place for sharing my teaching ideas that will help little learners grow. Since I haven't yet found my forever classroom, I don't have a place to put all those ideas.

That's where this blog comes in. I love collaborating, sharing, learning, and growing. Isn't that what teaching's all about? I feel like blogging is the perfect place to do all that and more. As I search for my forever classroom, I'd like to build my online classroom right here in my "garden". Come and join me as I grow my teaching garden!
