Time Well Spent

             

             I have learned to be in the field of early childhood education is an important source of work I have experienced in my life. In my profession is, I can be both teacher and advocate for young children and their families. In the early childhood field I have opportunities to meet different people cultural contexts, religious beliefs, ethnic backgrounds and language. I have learned in being in this field of work that there are many opportunities to apply in learning and development.

I had learned that I can work my way from the bottom to the top when I first started to work in the early childhood education field I had only a high school diploma; look at me now I have worked myself in getting a CDA’s in infant/toddler, AA’s bachelor and master’s degree. I have learned deeply on how to work with many students and families as possible. To explain to them that learning can be fun, and just on the other day a parent told me her son have learned his name and birthday. I have achieved that goal. Learning’s skills from this program are to make reading enjoyable for my entire student’s. I have learned deeply when children understand in what they are experiencing they like doing it. Reading can be fun when you make it come alive to young children. Another skill I have learned that is finding ways to reach other staff by gathering resources, communicating, and learning from each others.

My long-term goal continues my education and understands that learning is an ongoing process, and attending school in accomplishes my master’s degree in education counseling. I will not finish and achieved a master’s degree in education counseling working at an elementary school.

I would like to wish all of my colleagues and the best of wishes and may your dreams come true and you all have a prosperous, successful journey. Remember that the sky is the limit we can accomplish anything when we set out mind and heart to do so. Remember colleagues that being a teacher are a high- quality field to uphold; because we will always be in young children and their families’ lives. So let’s make it a positive one and help compel young mothers and fathers that head start is the right place to start. Thank you so very much Professor Dartt you have proved you are an outstanding lady. May God Blessings be upon each and all of you all?

Sincerely Yours,

Cedar Belle Tyler

My experience and training in the program is it has been a tremendous journey in the early childhood education program. I have been excited to the full extreme getting to know different cultures and races. During this learning process, I have learned that being in the field of early childhood is crucial because I get to meet different cultural contexts. I get to communicate and develop lasting relationships between the children and their families. Working with children means to me that I am a part of children life and world. I feel that I have the most important profession in the world working with young children mean to touch each child’s life. A life that illustrates my experience/learning is commitment when all other sources fail stay commitment and everything will work out fine. I also learn to empower families to help all young children to have a safe, learning, and healthy environment to develop the skills they need for school readiness.

Jobs/ Roles in the ECE Community: Internationally

           

               The Save the Children Organization “The only international language in the world is a child’s cry,” said Eglantyne Jebb. Eglantyne Jebb is the founder of Save the Children she was a social crusader in 1919. Jebb was arrested in London’s Trafalgar Square for passing out pamphlets “A Starving Baby” with the picture of a malnourished Austrian child. Along with her sister, Dorothy they held a Famine Council meeting at the Royal Albert Hall during this time. She asked for forgiving for her indiscretion, she held up a tin of condensed milk. Stated “There is more practical morality in this tin, than in all creeds." With that declaration, a spontaneous collection was taken up around the hall and the Save the Children Fund was born. I chose this organization because it was founded by a woman who had a heart for children. Eglantyne Jebb had encouraged me to become a sponsor to save the children today Feed the Children is operated by Larry and Francis Jones.

UNICEF Organization was founded in 1946 to helps support every child world to have the rights. UNICEF helps children globally and naturally. UNICEF believes in laying the foundation for all children by nurturing and caring for children are the main purpose for this business. UNICEF is advocates for children to help them get the best start in life. UNICEF promotes young girls with education making sure that they finish primary school and of the benefits in getting education. UNICEF helps both boys and girls to get education this group believes that girls are better thinkers and better citizens. UNICEF provides young children to get the medicine they need such as, immunization against common childhood diseases. UNICEF is part of 190 countries and territories through country programmes and national Committees. I chose this company because help provides for young children all over the world and help fight the spread of diseases. UNICEF put the children first and helps families to create a healthy and caring environment.

National WIC Association means women, infants, and children this program is for low- income pregnant and post- part women, infants, and children up to the age of 5. WIC is a public health nutrition program under the jurisdiction of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). The WIC program is funded by annually by the U.S. Senate and House Appropriates Committee. In 1972 WIC was founded for pregnant mothers, infants, and children; in 1974 WIC was opened in Kentucky; 1974 WIC was operating in 45 States; in 1975 WIC was established as a permanent Program by Legislation P.L. 94- 105. I chose this organization because WIC has come through for my daughter and has saved so many young children lives. Because you never know what is in a child’s environment after he leaves your present.

I went back home to Mississippi to look for a job and a place for me to live. I wanted the position I wanted was a teacher into preschool the classroom. But the boss said that they were not hiring at this time. There is a shortage on finding jobs in Mississippi and Arkansas. I would like to move back home to be with my families and work at the Head start center in Columbus, Mississippi.

I would need my bachelor degree and experience in working with children and have a heart for young children. To be willingly chance and not to be afraid to speak my mind. To watched out for my children. Because it’s all about the children.
