One hope I have when thinking about working with children and families who come from diverse backgrounds is I continue to have the passion I have instilled in me for acquiring knowledge concerning different diverse cultures and family’s values.
One goal I would like to set for the early childhood field related to issues of diversity, equity, and social justice is for all educators to have updated professional development training for our continuous changes in diversity. Our classrooms are ever changing and adapting to new family cultures, bilingual families, and socioeconomic status. There are many “ism’s” in society and we as professionals need knowledgeable tools to help us provide equity and justice to all.
I would like to thank all my colleagues for sharing many interesting posts and discussions. It helped me learn a lot about diverse identities and my “social identities”. Best wishes!
