Words of Inspiration and Motivation

 
I searched for three individuals that had similar views as myself.  I value their words of inspiration and motivation to continue in the field of early childhood education.
  
 
Abigail Adams Eliot
 
 

“The most important thing is to enjoy children, to love them, be fair and just with them. If you do that, they're pretty likely to come out all right," she told supporters of the nursery school when she was starting it.”
 
Marcy Whitebook
 
''There's all this talk now about how important the early years are and how important education is,'' Ms Whitebook said, ''but as a society we are going to have to put our money where our mouth is. We have to value child care teachers more, and there is some movement in that direction in a few states and in some of the child care legislation that is before Congress.''
 
Louise Derman-Sparks
 
“I had a built in passion that it was important to make a real contribution to the world and to fix all the injustices that existed in the world and I wanted to do that through teaching”

  2. Daphnie,

    It is true that we must value the teachers that take so much time to teach our children. With this same thought in mind, it is necessary to promote ongoing trainings and professional development.
