I hope that while I work with children and their
families I will remember all of the articles read, webcast viewed, assignments
completed, and interactions with my classmates that have expanded my views and
broadened my thoughts on interactions with diversity. I will strive to stay open and accept people
for who they are and the things they do, not rushing to judgments or assumptions
about people.
The one goal that I hope for the early childhood field
is to continue to push diversity, equity, and social justice. Doing this will enlighten educators of the
importance these qualities are to not only have as a professional but the
importance of teaching children to learn and accept others.
In closing I have to thank all of my classmates for
sharing your wisdom and thoughts on the various topics covered in this
course. I would like to extend Dr.
Snider for all of her valuable feedback, suggests, and thought provoking words
thought this course. I can honestly say
that I have taken a lot of knowledge away from this course and look forward to
the journey to come.
Good luck to everyone and continued blessings.

Holy Greeting Quandra I really enjoy your blogs every step of the way. It's essential for all educators to continue the faith in educating young children and their families about equity, social justice and diversity. Because young children is our future tomorrow. I love you and see you at graduation by faith and work!
ReplyDeleteNot judging people will follow us a long way. I know that we are all guilty of judging children in our classroom eventhough it's not right. This course have taught me a lot about that. From now on, if I see something that I don't like, I'm not going to speak on it unless I know the entire story behind it. I have truly enjoyed reading all of your blogs and hope to see you in the next class.
