This picture describes itself. There
are a million words that can describe how these little boys are feeling. I can tell that they are really having a
great time exploring with the finger paint.
I love the fact that they have it everywhere. I once was that child that loved to get
messed and had no worried. Absolutely
love the big happy smile.
Here are two quotes that I
found to be true……
“You can discover more about a
person in an hour of play than in a year of conversation.” ― Plato
“This is the real secret of
life -- to be completely engaged with what you are doing in the here and now.
And instead of calling it work, realize it is play.”
― Alan Wilson Watts
I have chosen these two quotes
because the first I feel like I learn more from my students when they are
engaged in play at center time and outside time. The second quote is how I viewed life when I
was growing up. I told my parents I
always wanted to stay a child and never grow up. So the only way I decided to stay young and
never grow up was to became a teacher and play with the children all play.
I feel that this course has
been one of my most challenging courses since I have been enrolled at Walden
University. Overall, I have learned a
lot not only from the instructor by also from my colleagues. Reading, responding, finding articles and
sources to help improve their current study topic for their research topic has
been a BIG challenge because I did not want to let anyone down.
Throughout this course I feel
like a lot of us have bonded by technology. LOL!!! But serious some of us talked on a daily basis
trying to figure out what was due and what to do. Even though we have not physical meet in
person it seem like we have created a relationship and friendship that will
last for a life time. I have learned so
much from everyone in this course.
Reading and responding to everyone post have increased my knowledge
about different social change in the world.
I would like to personal thanks
everyone in this course for you support and encourage words throughout this
course. But a big thanks to Susan, Dan,
Avis, MyTra, and Randi.
