Professional Hopes and Goals

One hope that I have when thinking about working with children and families that come from diverse backgrounds is that they will all be treated equally with not biases from people that are different. I especially hope that this is true for the children. Going into this upcoming school year I know that I have students will many different abilities and backgrounds. I will treat each of my students the same and will expect that other adults treat my students the same way.

One goal that I would like to set for the early childhood field is to really take the information that I have learned in this class and teach it as an intro to education course. I have learned so much about myself and the way I think, but also about the way that others think and how people are treated. I think that if people were more aware then issues would be less likely to happen.

I would like to take a second to thank my colleagues for helping me learn throughout the last 8 week. Hearing some of your stories has really helped me think about the way that I treat people and how it effects them the rest of their lives. You truly have made a difference in my education and you will truly make a difference in the lives of the children you teach.
