One
hope that I have when thinking about working with children and their families
that come from diverse backgrounds is that I want them to know their value in
and out of the classroom
One
goal I would like to set for the early childhood field with regards to
diversity, equity, and social justice is that all classrooms, at least where I
work, strive to become an anti-bias classroom using resource, helping each
other, and supporting our families so that future generations can say “when I
was little I was respected, cherished, welcome, and loved in my classroom”
I
would like to thank each and every class mate who has helped support me through
this class and I appreciate all the responses given…they were truly helpful in
this learning process…good luck to you all.
Elizabeth,
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of every child growing up feeling respected, cherished, welcomed and loved! What a great goal!! Thank you so much for your great insights and input to this class. It has been wonderful to work with you and I hope you reach all of your goals!!

I believe its important to foster a sense of community and connection amongst professionals, so we may increase awareness of current education-related concerns. In order for us to address issues, and accomplish success in the classroom we need to be successful outside of the classroom first, we as a group aim towards the goals education stands for.
ReplyDeleteHopefully, one day we'll see the entire field take on a more anti-bias approach when it comes to such a diverse world. Until then, that doesn't stop us from sharing and applying what we've learned throughout this course. Like always, thanks for all that you have given me (as your fellow colleague) and I hope to see you at the finish line! :))
ReplyDeleteI adore your willingness to ensure that all children are being valued and that they know their worth. This is crucial in the early development stages because kids must know who they are in order to build and/or boost their self-esteem. I believe at times people forget that children are important and that they need to be heard and not only seen.
