Goals

When I think about working with children and families who come from diverse backgrounds I think about wanting to give them the best learning experience possible and to have a sense of being comfortable. I want to learn new ways to become better prepared to serve those from diverse backgrounds. I want to make sure that I meet the needs of my students as well as their families. We can make it a fun and learning experience between the teacher and the families. We will learn from each other as well as giving others in the classroom a chance to learn about another culture. I want to make sure that I keep an open door policy for all of those that I serve. We are a team that is learning together in giving our children a chance to succeed in life. My goals would be to make sure that I am prepared to serve those from diverse backgrounds and that I accept that students are differ in capabilities and take these differences as the starting point for teaching and learning. I want to also find ways to make sure that I active involvement from parents because learning and growth of their children is crucial. I want to make sure that I am properly trained and others who may work around me are trained to learn more about diversity, equity, and social justice. I will find trainings that will help me along the way to become more knowledge in these areas so that I can share it with others. I want to give the best so that I can serve those around me. I want to wish all of my classmates the best of luck. Remember we are in the field of early childhood education because we want to make the difference in the lives of those we serve and we also serve the families as well. You can only be truly accomplished at something you love. Don't make money the goal. Instead, pursue the things you love doing, and do them so well that people can't take their eyes off you. All the other tangible rewards will come as a result. -Maya Angelou
