Professional Development Resources

This week you will add to your list of resources that you began last week for supporting teachers and staff in a variety of content areas. You will only focus on one core standard this week which is composed of several elements. Read NAEYC Standards for Early Childhood Professional Preparation Programs (Links to an external site.), focusing on Standard 5: Using Content Knowledge to Build Meaningful Curriculum.  In your group divide the categories so that each member contributes one resource to their assigned curriculum content areas. (If you are a group of 2 each member will provide one resource for their five assigned areas, the larger the group the fewer areas each member will have):

  • Language development
  • Literacy
  • Science
  • Physical development
  • Evaluating curriculum for children

Each group will compile and submit a total of ten resources for this assignment. Include the APA citation (article), or (a) organization name, (b) contact information (address, phone number, website), and (c) a brief description of their services in supporting early childhood professionals in their own growth and development, as well as any other relevant information. INFORMATION IN MIAMI, FLORIDA
EXAMPLE:
 
This week you’ll be working with your Discussion Group partners to complete another professional resource which you can take with you to use throughout your professional career. As indicated in the assignment directions, there are 10 elements within NAEYC Standard 5 and each of you has been assigned the task of gathering EITHER a scholarly journal article OR the name, contact info and brief description of services for a professional organization which supports your assigned standards….you each will  locate 5 resources.
For example, one of the elements is Language Development. So one acceptable resource would the University of Arizona’s Speech, Languages, and Hearing Sciences Department, which contains a wide variety of resources for teachers and parents on promoting language development: https://slhs.arizona.edu/community/parents-other-professionals
