    Hi Amanda. How do you manage to read so many articles? How much do you read every day?

      It depends on the day, really. Some days I read a few, other days I’m lucky just to check my email. Often, if I see an article that looks interesting, but I don’t have time for it, I’ll bookmark it and then I get to read it during my Weekend Reads writing block. So I guess as much as Weekend Reads seems like a selfless way to share info, it’s a little selfish in giving myself a deadline to read all those posts that have intrigued me!

I’m Amanda Morgan. Here’s what I’m about…

In early education, there is too much distance between what we know and what we do. I bridge the gaps that exist between academia, decision-makers, educators, and parents so that together, we can improve the quality of early education while also respecting and protecting the childhood experience.
