KINDERGARTEN TEACHER
It has been my privilege to teach Kindergarten at Cedar Hill Prep since the September 2003-2004 school year. I hold a Bachelor of Science Degree in Elementary Education with a Specialization in Early Childhood. Before coming to CHP, I taught grades PreK-3 – Kindergarten and served as an administrator while teaching a Writer’s Workshop for 3rd and 4th graders. I am a true believer that experience teaches you everything.
Kindergarten is my favorite grade to teach. My classroom environment is an open, trusting environment where the students are engaged as they are encouraged to question, contribute, and launch out… to pursue their individual interests and talents as they encounter new experiences and gain insights and different approaches to learning. It is completely thrilling for me to watch my students grasp new ideas and apply them to other parts of their lives! That is true learning!

Grade 4 Student Pranavi at the United Nations! Peace Day celebrations took place at the United Nations Headquarters on Friday, September 20th. CHP 4th grader, Pranavi Sivakumar, had an opportunity to participate in this International Day of Peace Student Observance. This memorable experience for Pranavi is best described in her own words: “We waited in line for almost three hours. When we finally were able to sit down inside the U.N., we listened to many speeches about climate change. I also met my dance teacher there. She performed very nicely. I was paying close attention. I was the most excited person in my life!”

The Multiple Advantages of a Multilingual CurriculumThere have been a number of studies in recent years that suggest people who speak more than one language are in fact more intelligent. An article written by the New York Times highlights that learning multiple languages could improve cognitive skills beyond those related to language, which is a considerably different viewpoint than previously thought.
