Sharing Web Resources

With Professor Johnna Darragh

The resource that I use is a site called “Zero to Three” it’s a National Center for Infants, Toddlers, and Families.

The web link is:

http://www.zerotothree.org/

The website offers a variety of information for educators and parents all over the world such as up-to-date information of education policies, podcast, monthly news-letters, journals, blogs, and more.

The latest news-letter was “The Unthinkable Becomes Reality” dated 3/4/2013

(link : http://www.zerotothree.org/public-policy/newsletters/unthinkable-becomes-reality.html)

This newsletter discusses the recent education cuts that President Obama signed off on that will have a major effect on early childhood education and prevention services such as Early Head Start, WIC, Child Care, and Early Intervention.

The newsletter revealed updated information on the current project: Project for Babies that is currently helping legislators in Minnesota, North and South Dakota to better understand the importance of early learning experience and how it benefits children’s overall health.
