My Walden colleague Eileen Cirilli made a great connection between the following ideal from the NAEYC Code of Ethical Conduct and The Golden Rule, so I would like to add it to my blog too!
We shall demonstrate in our behavior and language respect and
appreciation for the unique value and human potential of each child.
Everyone
deserves and wants to be treated with respect, including children. They
can sense when they are not being respected and it will show in their
behavior. I always think of the Golden Rule, “treat others the way you
want to be treated.”

ReplyDeleteCarolyn,
ReplyDeleteThank you for always willing to share your experiences and wisdom with your classmates. You provided valuable insight to the program. I found your discussion posts and blog posts to be very informative and thoughtful and I appreciate the feedback you have given me throughout this course. Your posts about your experiences as a leader and an advocate in the field have been a source of encouragement to me as an individual just beginning that journey. Your passion for your work is clearly visible and I wish you all the best as you work towards improving the field of early childhood in Utah as well as your educational journey. I hope our paths cross again sometime during MSES program. Take care and good luck!
