By Sarah Kloss (V) This fall, the Lower School welcomes Ms. Kendall Davies, who will be teaching kindergarten students.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ms. Davies received a Bachelor\u2019s in Early Childhood Education from Miami University in Ohio. Before coming to Pingry, she taught kindergarten to second grade at Stevens Cooperative School in Hoboken for three years. Her passion for teaching started at a young age: \u201cFor as long as I can remember, I have wanted to be a teacher. As a kid, my favorite toy to play with was my chalkboard. I love being around the children, and I feel like I learn from them just as much as they learn from me.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
One of her favorite things about teaching kindergarten is the writer’s workshop. \u201cI love seeing my students move through the writing process and bring their stories to life,\u201d Ms. Davies said. In addition to being a homeroom teacher, Ms. Davies is an instructional design coach at Pingry; she helps lower school faculty get acclimated to the Pingry Anywhere model, specifically using the classroom technology. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Her goal for the school year is to continue to grow as an educator by learning from all of the amazing teachers around her. \u201cI have absolutely loved my time at Pingry so far and already feel at home here,\u201d Ms. Davies said. During her free time, Ms. Davies loves spending time with her friends and family.; she also enjoys going for walks and reading mystery novels. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Welcome Ms. Davies!
