The organization I chose is The National Association for the Education of Young Children
www.naeyc.org
My favorite part is Next. That is a collection of study guides to go with Young Children. Young Children is an award-winning, peer-reviewed professional journal published bimonthly by the National Association for the Education of Young Children. Young Children issues are organized around topical clusters that devote special attention to issues in the field of early childhood education. Next for Young Children suggest ways to build on the content of selected articles from Young Children. I like that because we can use articles for staff training and professional development. The site also has upcoming trainings in different locations listed. One other thing I found helpful was that you could join the organization online. The website has this posted:
NAEYC members can receive this award-winning journal (Young Children) for free six times a year as one of their membership benefits. Ninety-three percent of a survey sample of independent members named Young Children “the most useful NAEYC benefit in their work as early childhood professionals.” I think this organization is a great resource for us all.

Hi Deborah,
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing information about the NAEYC site. Such a great resource for those of us in the early childhood field! I am going to pay particular attention to the NEXT section as I help plan professional development activities for the early childhood department in my school district and this resource, I'm sure, will be quite helpful.
This year my district paid for all the preschool teacher's membership! It is a wonderful resource. I have never been to a conference but it is my dream to attend one day.
