These Lunch and Learns occur on Fridays from noon to one, and they are the most helpful workshops that I have ever attended. These workshop topics vary each Friday, from time management to learning how to take good notes in class. They provide food and it is a huge encouragement for me to know that there is help out there for those of us who are struggling in school, like me. The TRIO program also does campus tours, which are also very encouraging. The campus tours showed me that an education in our home town or community college is not the only option.
This job has helped me build relationships on a personal and professional level. Being given the opportunity to work at Appletree has been a pleasure one of the reasons being, that my boss takes really good care of all her employees by providing benefits and paid vacation. In the future when I have my own daycare, I will take everything that I have learned and make sure that I apply it to everything that I do in my own daycare. I will also make sure that I take really good care of my employees to make sure that they feel appreciated so they will stay around longer. Most daycare’s have a huge turnover rate because the employees don't feel appreciated and feel like they are being under-paid for the work that they provide which is another reason why Appletree is not a typical daycare because their employees get treated so

Multicultural Theme Unit Tiffany Green ECE405 Instructor, Carlee 4/13/2011 In early childhood education it is so important to provide for individual differences adequate learning experiences for our young children especially when teaching a multicultural classroom. We must allow our children to group the concept that we are all different, we are all alike, and we are all capable of learning. Multicultural education means that early childhood education professionals include, accept, and respect each child as an individual. It means that we recognize what each child values and hold dear, and then build those things into the daily life of the early childhood program (York, 2006). The material that can be use for my preschooler, for multicultural education is music, number, nursery rhymes, online activities they all can be use for the preschool program.
History 1 THE GETTY VILLA This extra credit option was a great opportunity for me to visit the Getty Villa. A friend of mine went there a few times and told me how beautiful this place was. On Friday morning me and my classmate Amy went to our field trip. Believe it or not, the tickets were free, we just had to order them online in advance. The only charge was $15 for parking, but it was totally worth it.
At this time you did not need a college degree to work in this industry and she got the job after her first interview. She said she was pretty good looking and a very good people person at the time and she believes that was a lot of the reason she got her job. She thought job searching was fun, but yet frustrating because she needed a job as soon as possible to help put my father through college, because she was living with him at the age of eighteen out of high school. She thought that all the hard work at home and with various tasks that her parents made her do helped her keep a good work ethic when she acquired this first job. She thinks that if she would want to change something about her careers and choices it would be that she would try more things out rather than just sticking with the same job for her entire life.
Being in Mr. Bostwicks class I’ve learned a lot. My grammar has improved. I have learned better study habits and I think I have really grown with my writing abilities. Mr. Bostwick has taught my an easier way to set up my paragraphs. One of Mr. Bostwicks many mantras he has us memorize is something I think really helps me and it goes a little something like this “ words make up phrases and clauses, phrases and clauses makes sentences, sentences makes paragraphs, and paragraphs makes composition.” Altogether I give mister Bostwick my SEAL of approval.
After being indulged in this project with Gloria, it really helped me to get to know her more. Gloria was very caring, intelligent, and also ambitious. In her spare time, she participated in community service activities; she believed that it was very important to give back to the community. She would go to homeless shelters and help serve food during the holidays. In addition, every Saturday she attended a community college to tutor kids with special needs.
Multiculturalism’s Five Dimensions Dr. James A. Banks on Multicultural Education The article presents the five dimensions of Multicultural Education, and how teachers can help transform the world by giving equal opportunities to all students and create positive racial attitudes. New information and relevancy to my personal life - As many teachers I thought multicultural education is mostly a matter of content integration and the extent to which teachers use content from a variety of cultures and groups to illustrate key concepts, principles, and theories in their subject area. In certain subjects, like social studies, there are more opportunities to integrate ethnic and cultural content, so it is difficult to see why learning about multicultural education would be relevant to all teachers. After reading the article I understand that content integration in the curriculum is only the first dimension of multicultural education.
The teachers were exhilarating, helpful and most importantly I could sense that they enjoyed what they were doing. It wasn’t every year that I had an experience like this but there were a few more exceptional years to follow in which my teachers were phenomenal! My forgotten quest of becoming a teacher had once again been ignited through these experiences. This further fueled my quest for becoming a teacher. After my school years were long behind me I entered into motherhood which brought on a gambit of issues regarding education.
