About Mr. Daly
Welcome to our website!! |
I have been an educator for 17 years, working in New York City public schools for 11 years and six years here in Georgia. I live in Atlanta with my wife Tracy, our dog Munson and our son Shepherd.
I am very glad to be part of the Brighten community of learners. I consider myself a life-long learner and educator with a belief in the constructivist approach to educating children – that students learn best when learning is active. A teacher’s role in facilitating student learning rests in fostering an environment in which they are mentally involved and engaged in hands-on activities that promote inquiry, discovery, investigation, interpretation and reflection. I want students to learn to try. I want them to take risks. I want them to fail and then fail forward. I want them to stand in the light that is shone upon them and reflect it onto others so that they leave this world a little bit better then how they found it.
