Time Well Spent

Time Well Spent

Three Things Learned Throughout The Course:

As an early childhood educator the common goal is to work together with parents, and the community to fight for high-quality, and issues/challenges that affect children and families living in socioeconomic areas. The things that I have learned throughout this course is when looking at issues and trends in early childhood education be sure to consider the intended and unintended consequences when working with children and families in low economic areas. I have  also learned the different leadership and strategies to consider when leading the community and others in early childhood education and last of all there are a variety of different organizations that provide training, workshops, conferences, internships, and membership that will assist you in your journey in early childhood education.

One Long Term Goal:

Is to help families to understand the importance of parent involvement across the board and open my own center, so that I can give back to the community by having a program that will help young mothers with clothes, furniture, and skills that would prepare them in the work field if they choose to work in early childhood education.

Farewell:

I would like to thank Dr. Teri for taking the time out to answer my emails and concerns that I had throughout the course.  You were very prompt and also gave great input throughout the course. I thank you for being a voice for positive and social change in early childhood education.

I would also like to thank my colleagues for the comments and suggestions on my Blog, and Discussion Board on my Capstone project.  As we all continue our journey may we all remember the reason why we chose early childhood education to help make a positive change that affects early childhood education?  Remember there is a greater need and awareness of the issues that affect children and families. I challenge each and every one of you to keep that light shinning and the passion that drove you to making a difference.
