What I Have Learned

One hope that I have when it comes to working with your children and their families is that I will always approach them with an open mind and an open heart. I hope that this will help me to establish meaningful relationships with the children and families that I serve in order to work in their best interest.
My goal for the Early Childhood field is that it continues to value the importance of diversity and the ability to teach an anti-biased curriculum.
I would like to thank all of my classmates and colleagues for supporting in me in my journey to increase my skills and knowledge in the field of education.


Thank You!!!

  2. Hello April!
    My hopes are to also create meaningful relationships with my students and their families. Without bonds or meaningful relationships with children and families, it will be a challenge to make any difference in these families lives. Relationships are the foundation of meaningful partnerships both with the students and their families.
    I also want to say thank you for your positive interactions and participation in this course. You have definitely been an asset to this course with your knowledge and experiences. Best wishes!
