Only The Beginning
I just want to take this opportunity to say "Thank You" to all of my classmates. This class was a success for me. In the beginning I was afraid and didn't know what to expect. My first application paper was written in total fear of APA style! Now I am confident and am looking forward to the next class. I have shared so much information with my coworkers and have referred them to Walden University. I wish you guys much success with all of your future endeavors. KEEP BLOGGING!!

Examining Codes of Ethics
Ideals contained in the National Association for the Education of Young Children and in the Division for Early Childhood that are meaningful to me are:
National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC)
Ethical Responsibilities to Children
1-1.3-To recognize and respect the unique qualities, abilities and potential of each child.
1-1.10-To ensure that each child's culture, language, ethnicity and family structure are recognized and valued in the program.
I choose these two because I work in a district that has a diverse population of Hispanic, Afro-American, and Asian communities. It has been very beneficial to me to learn about each culture so that I can teach them effectively.
Ethical Responsibilities to Families
1-2.7-To share information about each child's education and development with families and to help them understand and appreciate the current knowledge base of the early childhood profession.
A lot of people believe that Pre-K is a highly paid babysitting service. When I demonstrate and inform the parents about the curriculum we follow and invite them to participate in the classroom and in different workshops they gain a different point of view and recognize what their child is really being exposed to.
Ethical Responsibilities to Colleagues
1-3A.1-To establish and maintain relationships of respect, trust, confidentiality, collaboration and cooperation with co-workers.
Being Grade Level Chairperson means I have to know how to work effectively with my co-workers.
Division of Early Childhood (DEC)
Enhancement of Children's and Families Quality of Lives
2. We shall recognize our responsibility to improve the developmental outcomes of children and to provide services and supports in a fair and equitable manner to all families and children.
3. We shall recognize and respect the dignity, diversity and autonomy of the families and children we serve.
In order to serve the children better we have to work with their family's. We need to be aware of their family make up, respect their customs and traditions. We must collaborate in order to serve the children effectively.
