This week I have sent emails to quite a few organizations to try to connect to an early childhood professional in Israel and in Romania. I have yet to receive a reply so I do not know if have to use the alternative project or not. I picked Israel because I hope to one day visit and maybe live there and am interested in their education system. I chose Romania because I am interested their early childhood programs post Ceausescu. I hope to receive some replies soon. Has anyone been able to connect to another professional?
The website I chose is the International Step by Step Associations website. I am a member of DEC and NAEYC and would like to learn more about what is happening globally in the early childhood field internationally. As our classrooms are becoming more diverse, I want to become more diverse in my own studies. I feel this could help me understand some of the foundations my children might have. I have sent an email to subscribe to their monthly electronic newsletter. I am looking forward to receiving this newsletter. I also hope that I can reach out to other childhood professionals through this website.
