One hope that I have about working with children and families from diverse backgrounds is that I show them with complete respect. I want them to feel welcomed and that they can trust me in helping them with their wants and needs. I want to get to know them and truly understand their goals inside and outside of the classroom and be able to provide them with additional resources if needed.
One goal I would like to set for the early childhood field related to issues of diversity, equity, and social justice is that I want to teach children of differences. I want to expose them to different cultures, so they can understand instead of being scared of the unknown. I want the children to accept one another and show each other with respect and dignity.
I would like to thank each and everyone of you for your help and support through out this course. The discussion board has helped me tremendously and each one of your experiences and comments has helped me understand this material so much better and for that I do appreciate you. I want to wish you all good luck in future because each and everyone of you are special and will truly make a difference in someones life.
I enjoyed reading your blogs and participating in group discussions with you, Brittanie. I wish you the best of everything.
ReplyDeleteHi Britanie!
ReplyDeleteYour blogs were always so honest and refreshing to read. You were so active in the discussion boards which helped facilitate more dialogue. I hope you enjoy this little break before fall semester starts. Good luck as we move forward.
Britanie,
ReplyDeleteIt has been great interacting with you on the discussion boards and reading your blogs. I hope to see you in the next class.
Britanie,
ReplyDeleteBy showing complete respect to the families and young children you are already modeling acceptance of others for them. The families and young children you work with are very fortunate.
