A Note of Thanks and Support

My colleagues have supported me in wasys such as feedback and open communication. I have reached out to one of my peers, Amal. I have not reached out to many people because I normally do not have many things that I cannot get from the course material or from our discussions.  I have really enjoyed this class and I have learned many things from my peers through discussion posts and blog updates. I am grateful for what I have learned from you all, it is has been a pleasure reading these post and learning different views related to the field. Hopefully, I have been as supportive and you have learned some things from me as well.  What I have hoep for the future is for all of my peers to porsper and set a path for future educators to to follow. Best Wishes....

My Fuel for Early Childhood Studies

The photograph below is my fuel to keep learning about early childhood.  It is very important to me to be very knowledgeable when it comes to growth and learning. I also would like to serve as an example on what  a good mother is and be able to teach other children what I have taught my daughter, and with early childhood studies I can grow with my child and get to see  some of the things that I will be learning in my online master's program firsthand.  My child has persuaded me to teach this age group because i was so unsure of what age group I would like to be involved in.  this child is my inspiration and motivation to keep going. I am not by far perfect, but every experience is a learning experience and I am enjoying every second of it. all the recognition goes to Mackenzie Nyla.
