Holly Shannon, M.A.T., Elementary School Teacher

Who says learning can't be fun? Teacher Holly is all about both-- making education enjoyable! She brings a playful, but knowledgeable, attitude to her first grade classroom and helps parents carry that over into learning at home. She has tips to help you encourage your children to read, be organized and help each other out. Holly gives us a glimpse into the classroom and why a child's behavior may be different at school than it is at home. For instance, why does your child seem to be regressing in areas like potty training when he's at school? Why do some kids, even those who are good students, have such a hard time with homework? Holly can help parents of school-aged children understand the nuances of learning that can give their kids a boost in the classroom (or just help them survive summer break!). She's full of ideas and will help you get in touch with your child, and your inner child! More >
