Lesson’s From Ms. K’s Class
How has the school year started for you? For me it has been so busy with getting to know a new set of students, their names, and personalities. Getting adjusted to a new classroom and a new teaching team. There is a lot of new for me this year, but new is okay. I remember reading that “change is the only constant in life” and change can be very good. Nothing is the same forever. Change challenges and develops us, so I am looking forward to a great school year.
This year starts my 17th year in education and my 4th academic school year at my current school. I am teaching English kindergarten students at a bilingual school in Shanghai. I never would have thought that life would have me as an international teacher, but here I am, teaching over 7000 miles away from home and loving it!
This is just a short post to encourage you as this new year has begun if you are a teacher, a parent, or even a student – keep pushing towards your goals and never give up! I started a certificate program two years ago and just completed it in August of this year. I now have my Certificate in School Management and Leadership from Harvard University and I am so glad I stuck with it and didn’t give up.
We took a field trip to the Botanical Gardens. We had a blast.
In 2021 we are inundated with technology everywhere we look. If we are going to have it at our fingertips we may as well use it for good. If you have young learners here are a few websites that are great for reading:

If you are looking for vocabulary based on books you can search for the book on:
www.quizlet.com – This is a great wat for students to learn vocabulary.
