This week I attempted to make contact with two early childhood professionals outside of the United States. I went to the Global Alliance of NAEYC website and emailed a dozen different people from Africa, Asia and Europe. Over half of my emails came back undeliverable. I am hoping I will get a response from some of the emails that did go through. I also talked with other teachers at my school as well as my principal to see if they had any professional contacts outside of the United States but they did not. I also spent a little time looking at the UNICEF website. This website looks like it is full of important information. If I do not hear back from any of the people I tried to email I will need to choose the alternate assignment.
Since I teach preschool and I am passionate about the importance of preschool I chose to study the Pre K Now: A Campaign of the Pew Center on the States. I also signed up to receive their weekly newsletter. I am excited to explore this website further and find out all it has to offer.
