The hope that I have when I think of working with children and families from diverse background will be more resources available for them to use to support their home culture in a new culture, and children and colleagues will value diversity and equity as a natural thing in their lives too.
The goal that I would like to set up in early childhood education field is to make sure children from various cultural background have the equal rights and treatment in school environment regardless of their differences from the dominant culture.
Thank you for all my colleagues and the profession helping me through the course. I liked this course a lot, as I have learned many new things that can benefit myself and children in my class as well. Thank you for the comments that Professor Tammy made for my assignments, which inspired me doing a better work later on, and thank you for all the postings, interesting stories, and comments from my colleagues as well, you broaden my horizon of the knowledge and the world around me. I hope I can work with you all soon again.
Sissi, I thought you were a great asset to this class. Your thoughts, ideas, and experiences are unique and have been of great benefit to me. Many thanks, Dot
ReplyDeleteSissi,
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for being so open and sharing the challenges that you face at your school in California. I learned a great deal about how other cultures view different issues. Sometimes, because I am a part of the dominant culture, I expect everyone to view things the way that I do. I now know that I must be open to other perspectives so that the best solution can be found.
Hi Sissi,
ReplyDeleteThanks for your support throughout this course and I wish you the best in the future. We all have learned a lot about cultural divesity, microaggressions, and social identity. Good Luck!
Hi Sissi, I believe that it is important to ensure that all children have a safe haven where they are allowed display their diversity. It saddens my heart to think that children are feeling like outsiders in their own class. We have to share with our colleagues what a change we can make in the children and families lives.
