Welcome to Collected Education



Hello, my name is MaryJane.  I would have to say that my favorite children's book title is "Goodnight Moon".  This is a book that you can read every night to your child and make it your own.  I used to read this book to my niece every night at bedtime, and I would have her look around her room and pick things out that she would like to say goodnight to.  It made it a fun way to get her to go to bed, and a way for her to learn what different things were.  Here is my favorite quote regarding family:
The reason I chose this quote is because your family may not necessarily be biologically connected.  Everyone's definition of family is different, and for me it includes my closest friends and people who have been there through good and bad times.

  2. Mary,
    I really like your quote. I am not super close to my biological family at times, but am extremely close to some of my coworkers and friends so this statement really reminded me of what is important. I also like your idea of taking a book and making it into a learning game. Combining language skills and reading with games is a way to make it interesting so that it promotes reading long term.
