“Education begins the moment we see children as innately wise and capable beings. Only then can we play along in their world.”
-Vince Gowmon
Hi! I'm Brook Upton, your Teaching Totes℠ Collin County specialist!
About Me: I am a mom and former preschool educator. My passion is taking the amazing psychology and philosophy of early education and turning it into an effective curriculum. I have learned that the first eight years in a person's life is crucial to their intellectual and emotional learning.
I developed a program called Barnabas Learning Resources to help parents and teachers encourage learning and development in young children. Kids learn best through guided play and when they have a strong support system.
I am so excited to be part of the Teaching Totes℠ team! The totes perfectly represent my motto of “encouraging young minds” by providing engaging activities for parents to share with their little learners. I am excited that I am able to bring this service to our community. I hope you love them as much as I do!
