The website Zero to three that
is relevant to my current professional development is to help infants and
toddlers improve their learning. In order to help infants and toddlers improve
their learning it must be done with the help of parents. Since I want to open
up a day care center this would be the perfect thing to do which is also a part
of zero to three mission statement.
Their mission states, “Our mission is to promote the
health and development of infants and toddlers.”(Zero to Three, n.d.).
What made me thing about a new
issue in another way on the website Zero to three is the fact that this
organization wants to help promote development and health in infants and
toddlers. The reason that this made me look at it in a different new way is because
normally a professional job as a day care owner is to help infants and toddlers
learn and get ready to enter prekindergarten.
Some information the website contain that adds to my
understanding of neuroscientist in the early childhood field is the fact that
in the maltreatment section of this website it talks about how there are
resources to help young children and families. They are there to help young
children and families who we either affected by a disaster, loss, or violence.
Some other issues and trends in
the early childhood field I have gained from exploring the website is the Sandy
Hook Elementary school shooting. This website is there to help children cope
with exposure to the violence. Not only are they helping children coping with
exposure to the school shooting but also the families.

Thanks for the new resource! I am a PreK teacher but I often find these resources helpful when trying to improve a skill or adjust my instruction for learners with different skill levels.
ReplyDeleteI found your research on Zero to Three very interesting. I found it interesting that Zero to Three helps those affected by disaster, loss or violence. I did not know this about Zero to Three.
