TAKE A LOOK...

As Early Childhood Professionals, we frequently use various resources to keep ourselves informred of current and necessary changes in our field that will benefit our children, their families, and communities. Below are a list of resources that have proven their exemplary quality and respectful focus on children. I'm confident that each resource will provide specific topics, current issues, publications, events, video and audio interviews with practitioners, and/or links to other resources that will be of great benefit to you as an Early Childhood Professional.

The resources below include links to Position Statements and Influential Practices, Global Support for Children's Rights and Well-Being, Selected Early Childhood Organizations, as well as Selected Professional Journals Available in the Walden University Library http://library.waldenu.edu/. I've added three additional websites under Blogger's Choice that are of particular interest to me. They deal with the challenges of Sensory Integration Dysfunction/Sensory Processing Disorder. You will also find several links to literature that supports EC Professionals who deal with children with these challenges. I've also highlighted a particular curriculum that I feel effectively deals with the problems of discipline in the classroom settings of disruptive children--Conscious Discipline. These are my exclusive recommendations--I hope they prove beneficial to you.
