Research that Benefits Children and Families -Uplifting Stories Week 3

The positive research that I did with children and families is the Early Head Starts program.
The Early Head Starts programs helps children and families from birth to three years old.
In the research it helps a child with their assessments with their cognitive, physical, social-emotional,
and language development. The parent assessments help parents to get involve with the child's development, parent meeting, and parent council meetings. It also helps the teachers with the observation and documentation of the child's development. The Early Head Start program focus on the School Readiness Goals. The school readiness goals focus on approaches of learning, cognitive, language and literacy, social/emotional, and physical. The research helps the children and families with their studies.
Being a teacher in the Early Head start program has help understand the children and families culture,
 traditions,and bond with the children and families. In my story one of parents had bug bites in her apartment and she had to move out her from her old apartment to her new one. She had to throw a lot of her belongings away. She was a single parent with two girls and she really do not have any family in North Carolina. So I told her if she need me on that Saturday I would help her move. She was like I don't have any money to give you, I was like I am not charging you anything I am doing this from my heart. Eventually I help her moved and this parent seen another side of me she had never seen. So I brought over some cleaning supplies help her clean her new apartment and she was good to go. A year later her daughter left the program and she would keep in contact with me to let me know how her child was doing at  school and everything. So one day she call me up and was like what are you doing this afternoon you and your daughter, and my response was like nothing we just chilling out. She was I want to take you out the eat and I was like you don't have to do that and she was like yes I do, remember the time you came and help me move and I was like yes. Well I want to take you out so I agree but she was like I still do not have transportation and I was like I will come to get you. I tell this story because as a teacher you never know what lives you touch when it comes to families.

Blog Assignment: Your Personal Research Journey

The topic I chose was Parent Involvement. I chose parent involvement because as a teacher it is
very essential to a child's development. Parent Involvement helps a child with their social/emotional,
cognitive, language, and physical skills. Parent involvement also helps to learn about different cultures in the classroom. For example I had  a parent from China and we dress up in the clothing of China and she brought food that she cook and we experiment of eating with chop sticks. We also sit down on the floor like Chinese and the children love it. We was listening to Chinese music and opening our fortune cookies.
The research chart gives me an insight of learning of different was of doing my research. It helps me to brainstorm the information and look ask questions like "how, when, where", is the topic is essential to my research, It also helps me to read more and look at different resources of my research.

Week 8 Final Blog Assignment

The three consequences of learning about the early childhood and my professional and professional development is global learning with other teachers around the world, networking, and learning for teachers of how they teach and educated teachers around the world. It gave me insights of learning from different countries of how they do things with their education and testing standards and how they do their curriculum . The one goal for the international awareness of issues and trends is being a teacher along with my colleagues and educators to advocate for children and families around the world. This is how you become active in your community and global around the world. This also helps teachers and educators with their professional development. I feel like I have learn a lot from my colleagues of how they made international contact with other people around the world and it just fascinating how we made connections with people about the early childhood. I just like to say I enjoyed all my colleagues and I have learn from each and I do not like to say goodbye I like to say see you later and wish everyone much success in the early childhood education.

In high quality childcare is for children from disadvantaged backgrounds, promotes motivation,
confidence, good cognitive and linguistic development and school readiness. School readiness promotes physical, cognitive, social/emotional,  literacy and language, and approaches of learning.

helps the program standards for parents to understand child/staff ratios, educator qualification, and indoor and outdoor learning environments. Children learn best within positive relationships-with
their parents and families, with their peers and with well-trained early childhood educators. These are the insights I have gained from the UNESCO's Early Childhood Care and Education. The website is

Getting to Know Your International Contacts-Part 1

In the Childhood Poverty Research and Policy Centre the poverty in the country in Mexico had a lot
of issues. The three insights I gained from this website is how poverty effects low income families when the woman are pregnant, food,and the climate change of the weather. If the women do not get the medical attention that is needed they have a high risk of still-births. In the country of Mexico with the poverty issues they have a lot of still-births when women become pregnant because they can not get the help they need and they do not have the resources like we do. The climate change of a temperature and the rainfalls have a lot to do with the crops growing for them to sell to make the money and it can affect people that have jobs and not able to work due to work.A household in Mexico  is considered to be capacity poor if its members cannot afford to cover their basic expenses on food, health and education, according to an officially defined basket. Finally, a household is considered to be in asset poverty if its members cannot cover their expenses of food, health, education, dressing, home and public transportation. This is the insights I gained from the poverty issues.
