Yes, that is a picture of me in Kindergarten!  Where to start on my first blog?  I guess I'll introduce myself (as I would never assume that you read my bio yet).  My name is Kurt Schwengel and I am a Kindergarten teacher in Santa Monica, California where I was born, raised and educated (UCLA and Pepperdine).  I have been teaching for 11 years now and don't see myself ever leaving the classroom.  I also travel the country presenting my original kindergarten curriculum RockAndRollKindergarten.com and teaching teachers how to implement technology into their classrooms.  I am also the ehow.com "Education Expert" where I write how-to articles concerning teaching.

Some of my views on education might be a little out there but stick with me, it'll all make sense after I explain the big picture...

I am also an avid golfer and devestatingly handsome.
