Time Well Spent


Three Learning Topics

During this journey at Walden, I have learned many things.  The most beneficial learning that occurred for me is that I now have the confidence to help children and families.  Prior to this program, I had very little knowledge and experience with understanding diversity and differences.  Now that the school year is starting up, I am incorporating things that I have learned in my room setup.

Secondly, I feel more confident in my ability to become an advocate for children.  This program has taught me that there are many ways that I can become involved.  Being on the timid side, I will look for ways that are suitable for me and still be able to make a contribution to help kids and their families.

Lastly, working on the final project has helped me in understanding ways make a stand on challenges that are facing many families.  The research has taught me the importance of team building to incorporate individuals that can help with my cause and make changes to benefit others.



Long Term Goal

My long term goal is to put my Master’s Degree in Early Childhood to use.  I plan on opening my own childcare/preschool program.  It is my intent, to provide quality education to all, and to provide assistance to families that struggle to afford childcare and preschool. 



Final Farewell

I can’t believe that our time together has come to an end.  It has been an honor and privilege to work and learn from each and every one of you.  It has also been a wonderful experience to have great instructors throughout the entire program.  I feel that each of you is part of an extended family because I have gotten to know each of you personally.  I wish all of you the best of luck with your goals and dreams.  I hope that our paths will cross again in another journey.
