There were many links that I have not followed on the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAYEC). The Advertise link had information on why should advertise with the world's largest Early Education Association. NAEYC has over 60,000 Early Childhood Professionals. Media link gave information on explaining publications, online advertising conferences, and a member mailing list. NAEYC offers online advertising opportunities and the options to have a booth at their conferences. The next link explored by me was the For Families. This link had a vast amount of valuable information.
Here I found information and added understanding of equity and excellence in early care and education. Information was on what to look for in a program such as 10 NAEYC standards, Support Science Learning, Preschools are natural for mathamatics, and What to look for in a program. There was information on Quality Child Care Matters with information on where to search for an-accredited program, What to look for in a Program, , and Signs of Quality Learning and Development, Child Development, Reading and Writing and Music, Math and More were more options to learn about.
The NAEYC Newsletter Children's Champions had information on Child Care Development Block Grants that had final regulations on making an important step forward for children, families and educators by clarifying the goals of the law, improving the health, safety and quality of child care, supporting the early child care, supporting the early childhood profession and making child care assistance more accessible and stables for families. This was a new insight about issues and trends in the early childhood field.

Hi Larry
ReplyDeleteI always find NAEYC very interesting to read up on. They seem to add such value to the early childhood profession in more ways than one. What have you learnt the most out of NAEYC and what they do for the early childhood profession? Would you ever be apart of what the NAEYC are doing for children and families?

There is so much valuable information on this site, and I will continue to use this source through my early childhood career. I am becoming a member of this organization.

ReplyDeleteLarry,
ReplyDeleteNAEYC is an awesome web site and resource for early childhood programs. they have NAEYC updates that come out weekly in a news letter form that I print and share with my staff.
Larry,
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing you insight on the NAEYC website. I believe that you cannot go wrong with utilizing their resources in your work with young children. They are the founding fathers of Early Childhood. I think throughout my studies at Walden I have had to read, research or write something related to the work of NAEYC.
