“Children must be taught HOW TO THINK, not what to think.”
-Margaret Mead
My name is Stephanie Lyon and I am proud to say I represent the 10th generation in my family to call Greenwich, Connecticut home. While my roots run deep in Fairfield County I ventured out of state for college. I received my Bachelor’s degree in Journalism from Marist and my Master’s degree in Early Childhood Education & Special Education (Birth-Grade 2) from Manhattanville.
I hold my Professional Teaching License in New York and have 9 years of teaching experience, (4 in an inclusive classroom setting) with children ranging in age from 15-months-old to 5-years-old.
Working as both a Head Teacher and Curriculum Coordinator I have extensive experience in the following areas:
Creative Curriculum, Montessori, Reggio, Project Approach, STEAM, CT ELDS and the NY Common Core Learning Standards.
Designing and implementing preschool curricula, providing strategies/resources and feedback for best teaching practices, and creating assessment tools for teaching staff.
As I continue to work as a Preschool Teacher and Curriculum Coordinator I am also now providing in-home teaching services for toddler/preschool aged children.
