families to enhance their quality of lives.
I picked these 5 ideals because they relate to my past professional growth in the Early Childhood Field, my current growth and my future growth. I have always been an active professional in the Early Childhood Field and started building my knowledge with my A.A> and B.S. degree. I also took continuing training courses and went to ECE seminars. I have continued my education by now studying to get my Masters in ECE-Teaching and Diversity. My Masters will enable me to have a deeper understanding and focus of the DEC ethics I picked. i feel children's diversity and learning differences are not used to help them and taught in class. The classroom environment and instruction has mostly been non-individualistic and I want to help teachers and society create more diverse and differentiated curriculum, materials, programs, informational products and supplies to help meet the needs of the whole child for every child.
