I have chosen to explore the website of the National Black Child Development Organization. I have requested to receive there newsletter and am awaiting information from them. Thus far I have found it interesting the the organization developed a program entitled Parent Empowerment Program(PEP). PEP was designed to give parents the tools to be their child's first teacher and is geared towards lower income African Americans but of course it can be used in a broad spectrum of parents. I look forward to sharing more as I continue to explore the site.
I have also chosen to listen to podcast on World Forum. The first professional I have researched is Susan Lyon who is the creator of the Innovative Teacher Project. The Innovative Teacher Project is a pilot program to integrate the Reggio Emilia approach in a child development center in San Fransico.
