Jobs/Roles in the ECE Community: National/Federal Level

 





     I’m a Passion teacher that wants the best for the children, I always wants to advocated for them, I want that children life and development in a better world, when they can play, and learn and nobody hurts their feelinds,where  they speak up if something is wrong, learn and grow in a healthy and safely environment without bias, and where they learn values, to be more humans, respect to others, sharing time and love to children whit special needs and learn from them, play  with them and give time for them. I want a place when I feel the children need my support, my love, my care, and make a difference in each individual child. For me Being a teacher is not a work is my passion, sharing time with children for me is part of my life, I learned from them, and every day I try to give my best in teaching the skills that they need, but the most important is to hear, to talk and always be there for them, understand, and foster good relationships with them, giving my love my care and my knowledge to help and support in everything they need.

"For me passion comes from one to make a different, to me making a different make me happy when the child is able to be successful in the classroom."  Raymond Hernandez.”

     The four organizations that I chose, are important for me because each of them are concerned in the well-being of the children, this organization are a good support, and research to having more knowledge, and give to me the desire in want to do more for the children, thinking in their needs, and advocated always fro them.

·        UNISEF, in (humans rights-based Approach to programming),” Here their mission is to advocate for the protection of children rights, to help meet their basic needs and to expand their opportunities to reach their full potential.”( http://www.unicef.org.rights)

·        NAEYC,is an organization that cares about the welfare of children, bring high quality care and education to all young children.(naeyc.org).

·        NICHCY, A center for children with disabilities,that support familys,and children with special needs.

·        Save the children,In this organization they put the children first,they give to the children what they need to grow happy and healthy.Save the Children gives children in the United States and around the world what every child deserves – a healthy start, the opportunity to learn and protection from harm. When disaster strikes, we put children's needs first. We advocate for and achieve large-scale change for children. We save children's lives.”()

     As I mention I need to return to my Country this year, so for this reason I’m going to work being a pre-school teacher, but one of my dreams is to have my own pre-school. I think in Walden University, I learned the necessary skills to work effectively with children, my colleagues during this course help also with their experiences, ideas, support. The Walden Teachers and Instructors , given to  me the skills, motivation, to keep going in being a better teacher. “Educators have be equipped with the correct skills and qualifications to lay the foundation for learning and development”Barnett,2003).the more knowledge, and experience that teacher have, the better they are going to care for their children.

"The real preparation for education is the study of one's self. The training of the teacher is something far more than the learning of ideas. It includes the training of character: it is a preparation of the spirit." Maria Montesorri.”

Exploring Roles in the ECE Community


Exploring Roles in the ECE Community
1)   I want to chose “Teaching for change”(building social justice Starting in the classroom. Provides teachers and parents with the tools to create schools where students learn to read, write and change the world, build a more equitable, multicultural society , and become active global citizens.
2)    I think NAEYC, is an organization that  want the best for the well being of each children Thinking in their needs. NAEYC, is the worlds largest organization working on behalf of young children.
NAEYC MISSION: is to serve and act on behalf of the needs, rights and well being of all young children with primary focus on the provision of education and developmental services and resources.
     NAEYC expresses its mission in terms of three broad goals:
  • Improving professional practice and working conditions in early childhood education.
  • Supporting early childhood programs by working to achieve a high-quality system of early childhood education.
  •    Building a high-performing, inclusive organization of groups and individuals who are committed to promoting excellence in early childhood education for all young children
  • Convening individuals and groups with diverse perspectives to generate new knowledge and understanding of issues affecting the education and development of young children and their families.
3)   NICHCY, National dissemination center for children with disabilities, has provided information and resource disabilities in children and youth.
This organization is important for me because if I want to work with Anti-Bias and diversity, we also need to have the support of and organization that helps children with disabilities and their parents.
ISM. THE INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL OF MINESSOTA


I find a very interesting school in Minessota,  the name is International School of Minessota, is a multicultural school ,”Our students thrive in an inclusive, collaborating learning environment where they are challenged to grow in intellect character, and global understanding as they prepared to impact the larger world” Teaching students with a rich opportunity to appreciate commonalities while they celebrate their differences.
In pre-school students receive daily instructions  world languages taught by native speakers. “Our curriculum has been carefully designed to educated students with diverse cultural backgrounds.” They want children to respect, and accept their differences to later succeed in life.
If I need to work in, I will love to work in this school because ,and I could be an Spanish teacher because is my native language, I also like the idea to work with an Anti-bias curriculum, and the importance for children to be proud of who they are, with all their differences.
I know I will live temporarily  in USA , for the work of my husband, so for this reason my interest is in learn, have the knowledge and the necessary skills to support and work with children in my Country Ecuador, advocated for them and try to give to them the best I can for their different needs, and well-being. I’m a passion teacher and the only thing that I want is to work with pre-school children.
TO TEACH
To teach is to share who you are, to impact the knowledge of all that has informed you with a passion that inspires the disinterested heart to listen, and the reluctant will to learn,
To teach
Is to nurture the growing spirits, to foster insight that perceives the rhythms of life and couples the preparations of the inner self to endure with dignity the adversity that wisely trains our souls.  Brian Johnson
