To Professor Laurie and my fellow
classmates I thank all of you for helping me devise an advocacy focus and share
my concerns and issues regarding parental communication and parental
involvement. Because of your critical feedback and suggestions, I was able to
present my plan to a group of teachers, parents, staff, and early childhood
professionals. As a result, I feel more empowered to implement my plan in the Fall.
I also thank you for your
encouragement that kept me going, as this was a difficult class. I thank
Professor Laurie for answering all of my calls. I'm sure I contacted you over
ten times throughout this semester. To all of my classmates, your feedback
through blogs and class discussions, confirmed the need of advocating for improving
parental communication and increasing parental involvement. You shared your
struggles and you recommended strategies and resources which made it easier for
me to present my plan.
I wish all of you the best of luck
as you continue your journey in the field of early childhood education. May God
bless you as you work towards improving
the lives of young children and families.
Although, I have only met many of
you online, I have many mixed emotions as I complete my final class at Kendall.
I do plan to continue to use my blog after this class and I would love to stay
in touch with you. Congratulations to all of the graduates and I hope to meet
you personally at the graduations.
