This week, I chose to contact via email Suzana Kirandziska, an early childhood professional from Macedonia and the Hellenic National Committee for UNICEF in Greece. I am hoping to hear back from at least one of these contacts, if not both. I am intrigued to learn about early childhood education in other countries.
Expanding Resources
The organization I chose to learn more about is the Children's Defense Fund. Their website is
http://www.childrensdefense.org/newsroom/enewsletters/
Their mission is:
"to ensure every child a Healthy Start, a Head Start, a Fair Start, a Safe Start and a Moral Start in life and successful passage to adulthood with the help of caring families and communities" (Children's Defense Fund, n.d.).

I was attracted to this website because it's mission provides a voice to children on a variety of topics that affect children. I am looking forward to gaining more information about education policies and issues that affect our children in the United States.
The contact you made appears to be very interesting on the international teachers. I was wondering hoe did you find someone to contact with in the site, because everyone I contacted their email address came back undeliverable. I hope you have more success than me. The organization you subscribed to appears interesting and I hope you enjoyed the readings. Glad you are in my class again have a great term. Happy Blogging.

DeleteI just picked those two because they seemed interesting- the Unicef in Greece I chose because of my Greek heritage and have always been a supporter of Unicef. I haven't heard back anything yet but will keep you posted if I do.
