421 Week 6

Learning:

  • This week, I learned about the importance of fathers and the perspectives of children who have siblings with disabilities. I don't think that it's easy for anyone in a family where there is an individual or are individuals with disabilities. And it's tough for each family member in different ways. So, maybe something I can learn from all of this is that I need to be patient with all my students and families. Everyone is going through the grief cycle in some aspect of their lives. I also need to be more intentional in inviting fathers to participate in their children's growth and education. I usually always go to the mother first...and I should be going to the mother and father, not just the mother.

HWD:

  • Well my HWD project was getting a little boring to me. I don't think there was enough of the "deeper" in my topic. I think it would AWESOME to be a developmental specialist or early interventionist any by switching my topic I am not saying that this job would be boring or unfit for me. I think I want to research nursing (breastfeeding). I am going to be a mom in the springtime and would love to breastfeed. So I want to research all about breastfeeding: how it works, how to do it, the benefits, what happens in the process with mom and with baby, and other things I don't know about yet. Here's an initial article I found: http://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/infant-and-toddler-health/in-depth/breast-feeding/art-20047138?pg=2
