Local pre-K teacher wins DOE’s Big Apple Award
Views: 0
Rhonda Corin, a Forest Hills pre-K teacher, has become the latest recipient for the Department of Education’s Big Apple Award.
Now in its third year, the award honors the best educators in the city who enrich their school communities, inspire students and model great teaching. She is one of 12 teachers who received the award out of 4,500 nominees. Corin, who works at P.S. 101 “The School in the Gardens,” said working with four-year-olds is a dream come true because “they are pure, they are untainted and they laugh probably 27 times a day.”
She earned a master’s degree from Mercy College and believes that learning has to be hands-on. For example, when the class learned about apples, the classroom transformed into an orchard and the kids made applesauce. When they discussed snowmen, Corin brought in snow to show them and then they analyzed why snow melted.
A teacher who is so invested in their students’ education should be honored all the time. Not only are they learning about aspects of the world, but they are learning about critical thinking as well.
Nominated by parents, Corin went through a rigorous process that included DOE representatives attending her classes, interviewing her and analyzing her methods to build trust between children and parents.
As part of the award, Corin received a $3,500 classroom grant. She also gets to serve as a fellow to Chancellor Carmen Fariña next year.

I’m amazed, I have to admit. Seldom do I come across a
blog that’s both educative and amusing, and without a doubt, you’ve hit the
nail on the head. The issue is something too few folks are speaking intelligently about.
Now i’m very happy I stumbled across this during my search for something regarding this.
Your style is very unique in comparison to other folks I’ve
read stuff from. Many thanks for posting when you have
the opportunity, Guess I will just book mark this blog.
