Professional Hopes and Goals

                                                   Professional  Hopes and Goals






My hope for working with families that come from a diverse background is that we can build on the background knowledge of the families. Also with knowledge I gain from this class it allow me to reach more families that have a diverse background so we can work together to support the child in the classroom.

One goal is I  would like to more diversity add to the curriculum and  more training for teachers on diversity. So that we can support the families and children.

I would like to say thank you  to all my colleagues for their support during this class. Also would like to thank you for sharing your insight , knowledge, view point .

Personal Side of Bias , Perjudice , and Oppression

Personal Side of Bias , Perjudice , and Oppression



Memory of an bias, prejudice, and or oppression:

I was working at my old job and my co-worker stated that she like light skin children than dark skin children  and at my current job when my co-worker stated that she like mix race children. She also stated that mix race children are beautiful.

I feel that this diminished equity. I feel it diminished equity in that it was saying that children of different color and better than other.
Feelings brought up: I was embarrass that they said and  ashamed of them for treating the children like that.

In order to turn this into an opportunity for greater equity I would have send them to diversity training before they enter the classroom.
