Reflecting on Learning

Being in this class has given me a lot of insight into different ways of looking at the educational mirror so to speak. I love working with children and families and being able to see all of the growth and potential is very rewarding to me. My most passionate hope for my future as an early childhood professional and for the children and families with whom I work for is to be able to continue understanding and committing my knowledge and teachings to those children and families I work for. I would love to be able to teach others respect, tolerance, empathy, and understanding of diversity in all of its aspects, but especially as a learning tool for children and their families. Anti-Bias education is so important to me; I want to be able to show others that they too can incorporate this not just in the educational realm, but in their personal lives as well. The more educated and equipped we are to prepare and teach not just the children, but the adults within the lives of children, the better prepared we can be to continuing the spread of anti-biased teachings.

I would like to say thank you to all of my colleagues for sharing their experiences and professional and personal thoughts on the issues we discussed during this course. I enjoyed being apart of this education journey with you all, and I thank you for allowing me to learn from you. I would also like to thank Dr. Kein for being so supportive of our learning and educational experience. You have made such a great impact on me; all of us as educators and I thank you for giving us topics that really made us dig deep into ourselves. I wish everyone the very best in the future courses and endeavors!

Warmly,
