Mohan,
Thanks for drawing my attention to the Tulane County Mission, I hadn't heard of it before. I could tell just by reading your information that they are like most of the Head Starts in the US and are big on involving the family. I loved the video! Everyone we meet can make a difference whether it's the teacher, lunchroom worker or bus driver. We can learn something and change the way we teach and talk to our students. I think ALL teachers should see this video!!
Thank you for taking the time to read my post, I hope to gather more insights and information throughout this course and share with others. I believe in the Walden family networking and providing local resources in the field of early childhood.
Mohan, I really enjoyed the video you posted, let to to the children and not at the children. I tell my coworkers tone of voice is everything.
