In this episode we pay tribute to the legacy of Diane Kashin, who passed away in January 2024.

Diane meant a great deal to all of us in the early learning field. She generously shared much of her knowledge throughout the years, through many different platforms and mediums.

In this episode, several educators from the early learning field share their memories of Diane. The common thread throughout, was that Diane not only provided new intriguing learning opportunities to engage our thinking, such as sharing her perspectives on seasonal pedagogy, as well as providing opportunities for us to connect theory to practice and our practice to theory – she did this while foraging a deep connection to US, the learner, making us feel SEEN, HEARD and VALUED for what we do.

Dr. Maya Angelou once said, “People will forget what you said. People will forget what you did. But people will never forget how you made them feel.” Diane had this gift for making us feel special, and for recognizing the talents we put into our work supporting children, families and each other.
