How Firsties with Heart Came About

Welcome to Firsties with Heart! We are OH-SO-EXCITED to enter the blogging world to share high quality products, innovative tips and dynamic classroom ideas. Our story is one full of heart, education, smiles, laughs and firstie love!!!!! Ten years ago we met as little high school freshies with a mouth full of braces and frizzy hair (Remember those days???). Over the years, this friendship grew because of our passion for teaching. We ventured to good old Duquesne University (Go Dukes!) and sat side by side on the road to becoming firsties with heart (with an immaculate planner and a 16 pack of flair pens in hand...obviously!). Three hundred miles apart can't keep the two of us apart. We constantly share resources and stories of our precious dumplings over the phone-- now it is time to share with you! No matter if you're close or far apart, we all have that teaching heart! We are so thrilled to start this blog together and embark on another year of teaching. :)
