I wonder about my future
I hear soft chirping sounds
I see small birds flying by
I am kind and honest

I pretend to fly 
I feel the wind beneath me 
I touch a soft bird
I worry about falling down
I cry when I miss you
I pretend to fly

I understand I'm not perfect
I say I believe in you
I dream of always being here
I try to be a great mother and better partner
I hope I have a long healthy life
I understand I'm not perfect]]> 2020-04-22 22:18:06 UTC https://padlet.com/amoran65/amoran65/wish/524302124 Chapter 2 key points amoran65 https://padlet.com/amoran65/amoran65/wish/524362605 Infants till the age of 6 have a greater chance of learning 2 or more languages. They would need their parents and caregivers to lay the foundation for their future years. Infants should be talked to and read to in their home lang. by the age of three you can introduce a 2 or 3rd lang. after the home lang. is established. 
Children develop mastery of sound, structure and functions of language by several factors. Similarities between 2 languages, exposer to each lang. and quality and quantity of exposure to the lang. by having a trustworthy relationship along with a rich environment would be key.]]> 2020-04-22 23:13:54 UTC https://padlet.com/amoran65/amoran65/wish/524362605 I Support DLL Programs amoran65 https://padlet.com/amoran65/amoran65/wish/526896010 I think  programs that offer and support DLL are great because research has proven that infants that learn their home language and  later are  introduced to a 2nd language are successful. These children will flourish as adults and have better opportunities in the future. It is vital these children not  forget their primary language , so they don't disconnect from their family, culture and not loose their sense of self. Research has also stated that adults who speak 2 or more languages have less of a chance to develop Alzheimer's later in life. As you can read it has some benefits to be bilingual. The brain is a great muscle that should be used to the fullest. ]]> 2020-04-23 20:49:16 UTC https://padlet.com/amoran65/amoran65/wish/526896010 Exploring my family of Origin amoran65 https://padlet.com/amoran65/amoran65/wish/526934085 I was raised with Spanish being my first language. I remember picking up some English words as a toddler, playing with neighbors, cousins or my older brother. My dad would emphasize the importance of speaking, and reading our home language first. He would have me read the bible in Spanish to him. He always said you will learn English as you get older. I was always told to respect everyone, be kind and always offer help to those in need. He would say believe it or not we are very fortunate to have a roof over our heads and always having food on the table. There are people not so fortunate. I never understood what he meant by being fortunate, until later in life seeing homeless people pushing around their belongings, and having no food, sleeping outdoors and being alone. I think being raised to be Proud of my Culture, Language, being respectful, and kind has made me the person I am today. Those are wonderful character traits to have when working with children.]]> 2020-04-23 21:14:36 UTC https://padlet.com/amoran65/amoran65/wish/526934085 Elevator Speech amoran65 https://padlet.com/amoran65/amoran65/wish/530313120 2020-04-25 18:35:22 UTC https://padlet.com/amoran65/amoran65/wish/530313120 Chapter 3 Summary amoran65 https://padlet.com/amoran65/amoran65/wish/531391512 Being Hispanic myself and having lots of family, I can say that I know someone that was fluent in Spanish in their early childhood and then learned English later in life. She has even become an American Citizen, she continues to speak both languages fluently and encourages her children to keep our language going with their own children. It's very important to not loose that connection to our roots.]]> 2020-04-26 16:02:05 UTC https://padlet.com/amoran65/amoran65/wish/531391512 Implicit Bias amoran65 https://padlet.com/amoran65/amoran65/wish/531404702 Our brains as infants are able to process millions bits of information per second. Our brain operates with two complex systems. 
System 1: Cognition that happens outside of our consciousness.
System 2: conscious processing that we use for our daily tasks.
These two systems work together to help us understand the world.]]> 2020-04-26 16:10:02 UTC https://padlet.com/amoran65/amoran65/wish/531404702 Chapter 1 Summary amoran65 https://padlet.com/amoran65/amoran65/wish/534981755 Being in this field of Early Childhood Education is important due to what we know now. How infants to pre-school aged children gather new information and thrive. We as educators need to apply what we have learned, encourage the "at risk" children that will be enrolled at some point and provide them with the encouragement. Low income children have so many disadvantages so having the centers open and having caring, knowledgeable caregivers will give these children hope.]]> 2020-04-28 00:43:11 UTC https://padlet.com/amoran65/amoran65/wish/534981755 Elevator Speech Summary amoran65 https://padlet.com/amoran65/amoran65/wish/535049403 My experience overall on the speech was easy.
