Love Is A Classroom

How do we include all children, regardless of their native language, behaviors, abilities, and disabilities, in a general education classroom? Do the challenges outweigh the benefits? These are the questions Andrew was forced to confront as an early childhood educator. In Love Is a Classroom, Andrew chronicles a pivotal year in his teaching career.

Love Is a Classroom follows his journey of understanding how to overcome barriers in plain sight and create high-quality, meaningful, inclusive experiences for all children, their families, and early childhood professionals through the power of collective advocacy, compassion, and perseverance
