A Note of Thanks

To all of my fellow colleagues I would like to thank you for all of your input on my post and my disscussions. I am glad tht we had this time to exchange information.

Examining Codes of Ethics

NAEYC I-1.2  To base program practices upon current knowledge and research in the field of early childhood education, child development, and related disciplines, as well as on particular knowledge of each child.

Significance:  With data, research, and knowledge, we can make better decisions on behalf of all children.   I enjoy researching the data to support the case for investing in early childhood education and quality care.

NAEYC I-1.10  To ensure that each child’s culture, language, ethnicity, and family structure are recognized and valued in the program.

Significance:  The developmental milestones and teaching strategies are present in all classrooms and with books, dolls, toys, posters and music.  these things help children become comfortable in their new setting. I enjoy having the children teach me the primary language they speak when their home.

NAEYC I-2.2  To develop relationships of mutual trust and create partnerships with the families we serve.

Significance:  I start the school year off with a welcome letter to all of the parents in class introducing myself and the assistant teacher, i feel this will start the process of building a relationship with the families.
