Yes Yes Good: The Heart of Teaching

ByCheryl Hulteen

Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
Teaching at Public School 1430 in New York City is where Cheryl Hulteen discovered and refined the heart of her teaching, “Prior to PS 1430 I taught the same way I had been taught. The teacher speaks to the students and they listen somewhat attentively. The teacher tells students to do something and for the most part they do it. In many classrooms I worked in before PS 1430, the teachers led the class in a “Good morning Ms. H” sing-song chant as greeting to me, the new teacher, the Resident Artist. None of those things happened at PS 1430. I had to… improvise.” Hulteen shares how she improvised new, humorous and powerful ways of understanding what it meant to learn, teach and embrace change in an educational culture that often settled for much less. YES YES GOOD explores the poignantly compelling and emotional portraits of students and teachers who learn to: Say YES to their creativity and ideas. Say YES to the creativity and ideas of the people they work with.
