Tweenies

ASHLEY LEWIS AND LORI LYONS

MS. ASHLEY: 

I am looking forward to my second year with Lil Goldman School, but bring a wealth of experience with me.  I have been in Early Childhood Education since 2007 - teaching, serving as an Infant & Toddler Education Coordinator, and most recently as the Assistant Director at Bright Horizons Montessori School.  I received my MA at Pensacola Christian College.  

I am married and we have one fur-baby named, "Buck".

I'm looking forward to watching the Tweenies learn and grow.  They are a sweet age group and bring excitement to school everyday.  

MS. LORI:

By the time I was 11 years old I was already babysitting 3 children.  After graduating from Mineral Wells HS I went through EMT (Emergency Medical Technician) school.  In 2000 I began my teaching career at St. Christopher Episcopal School, and with my CDA, taught Toddlers for 11 years and Pre-K for 10 years.  I was the Nursery Coordinator for the church for 15 years.  It's my second school year at Lil Goldman and I love the amazing Tweenies.  When I am not teaching, I enjoy being outdoors and going camping and fishing.

I have two daughters and a kitty named "Sandstorm".

Our Tweenies class is the older Toddlers (20-30 months).  These Toddlers are learning to be independent in eating and following simple directions. The main goals for this room are language acquisition, social/emotional development, and motor skills development.  Being in the Tweenies age group means playing is learning and that learning is fun!
