Both class discussions and chapter 5 in the book “Education the Practice and Profession of Teaching” has allowed me to gain knowledge of historical and current trends in policies and practices that affect early childhood and childhood educators because in the reading the authors speak in depth about social reform with in education, they tell about how policies were created and how they influence our education now for example in the text there is mention of attendance laws that protected children by educating them and keeping them from working.

Fuller and Strath (2001) conducted a quantitative research study that examined local populations of early education organizations based on the 1990 household census data to report features of the early childhood workforce nationwide. Multiple economic and regulatory forces shaped the population of early education organizations that operated within states and local communities. The median center-based teacher was 34 years of age, reported having completed some college, and was married. The median family childcare home provider had a high school diploma. Fifteen percent of all preschool teachers in urban areas were African American and 8% were Latina.
Abstract Having an Early Child Education Philosophy statement is important because it allows them to know their limits and learn the ropes of teaching. This will also allow them to develop their style as a teacher and what works best to teach kids what they need to learn. Every single person has different beliefs and how they want to teach and how to operate a classroom. This paper is going to talk about my philosophy on how a classroom should be set up and how to teach children. As well as my beliefs on how to guide children to become better and learn skills that will be necessary for the long run, but also to be of help to them.
Personal Information I am a student attending Miami-Dade college and I’m taking education courses. When it comes to being a teacher I have always wanted to be one. When I was, younger I would always babysit my cousins and I loved taking care of them. When we came back home from school I would sit my cousins down at the table and we would do our homework together. If they every needed help I would explain to them systematically how to do the problem.
Philosophy Statement “The dreams begins, most of the time, with a teacher who believes in you, who tugs and leads you on to the next plateau, sometimes poking you with a sharp stick called truth. ”- Dan Rather I believe each child should be given a fair chance to learn to reach the type of success
(p. 223.) This means that the directors should take the time to hear what the parents have to say and what they belief is best for their child. This can allow them to cooperate and find the best solutions to promote the child’s wellbeing. Freeman (2011) mentions that “partnerships are more than parent involvement, and in these alliances power resides in the hands of the practitioners” (p. 838). This is why it is important for the administrators to make sure that the staff and the program are accommodating to the families and embrace each family’s values.
Hello, I am Kristen Hardeman. I am 19 years old from Abbeville, Georgia, and this is my second year at Middle Georgia. I am an Early Childhood Education major, and I want to teach Kindergarten after graduating. I am in this class because it is important for a teacher to be able to properly speak in front of a classroom full of students. I decided to take this course online because I felt that I would be more comfortable communicating through camera rather than in person, and I hope that this course helps me to become more confident with public speaking.

Personal Philosophy I believe that each child is unique and learn by exploring through play. Children as they grow they learn more from one another. I believe all children learn at different pace and they’re all different. All programs should adapt to the needs of the children.
Early Childhood Education Philosophy Early Childhood Education is a very meaningful step in the education system because it is the transition from home to school. It lays down the foundation for learning and is the necessary building block years. Additionally, it is important to create a strong foundation for the learning to be built upon because it must uphold in the future academic storms.

Embracing the Diversity of Teaching in Early Childhood Education Early Childhood Education must be prepared to meet the cultural needs of society. The cultural diversity of students has grown as a foam in recent years. Therefore, it is necessary that teachers are identified with the student population. If an organization has a diverse teaching team in race, culture, and language, it will has endless opportunities to teach from multiple perspectives (Lustig, Koester, and Halualani, 2017). Unfortunately, this is not the case of ABC School.

Statement of Purpose I began my teaching career at the Miami-Dade County Public Schools District in the fall of 1999. I remember vividly that on my first day that my administrator handed me a pacing guide and a textbook. I was left alone to figure out the best way to keep my student engaged in the learning process. I took the challenge and infused technology into my teaching.
