Final Blog

This course has been very interesting and resourceful. Even though I was unsuccessful with a contact, I really enjoyed reading the post form my peers, and browsing the different web site gave me a lot of insight to early childhood education. The NACYE website was wonderful, because it gave great recourses that I was able to implement at my center and pass down to my staff.
Being able to attend an early learning center is very important in the beginning of a child’s education. It may not seem important, but in the long run it pays off. Being in the early childhood field I do understand and see the cost and the effects weekly tuition has on families. After taking this course I was surprised to see how many organizations are available for families who are low income. This gives the child an opportunity to experience education with their peers, and it doesn’t put such a financial strain on the families
.
Now this course is over I feel I gained a lot of knowledge on the different funding’s that are out there. I really enjoyed reading about UNICEF, and I really want to use it within my center, to get the kids involved. It will be a good way to teach the children how to help in the world, and it will teach them to appreciate what they have. Not everyone can afford childcare for their children, so they should feel blessed that they were given the chance

  1. Hello Stacey,
    I as well was unsuccessful with finding a contact but I must say this was a great opportunity to learn about how other countries early childhood system runs. Being able to explore different websites and learn from each other is valuable in becoming a successful professional. I wish you the best throughout your journey in the program and I look forward in reading more of your blogs in the future. Keep up the great work!!!

  2. Stacey,
    I wasn't able to make contact with anyone in the EC field from another country, but I did walk way from this course with knowledge of agencies and countries working on improving the issues and trends that hinder a child's education. Nice reading you blog, blessings of continued success in your program!!

  3. Stacey,
    I think many of us didn't make contact with an International contact. I learned so much from the podcast and from exploring different websites. Stacey, I have enjoyed reading your blogs this semester. Best of luck to you!

    I appreciate you sharing throughout the course. I to was not able to reach out to an international contact but am so grateful to those who did. Which gave me the opportunity to learn about other organizations and websites. I just wanted to tank you for sharing and wish you good luck throughout the following years.
