Sharing Web Resources

The website that I refer to is www.nbcdi.org. I enjoy reading the articles they have in the resource section. I read two articles. The article that I read that was closest to my career development is, "Framework for Planning Implementing, and Evaluating PreK-3rd Grade Approaches." I hope to one day own my own daycare and reading this article can assist me with developing my program. I enjoyed reading this article, it was filled with important and vital information.

The other article I read opened my eyes to a new, yet important trend. "A Call for Change: A Preliminary Blueprint to Improve Educational Excellence and Opportunity for African American Males in Urban Public Schools." My attention was drawn to this article because I have a young black nephew that will be attending public schools soon. This is an important topic because I feel like the lives of African American males are unvalued in America. The high profile killings of young African American teen males in recent years and throughout history makes this a trending topic. I believe that it is important for African American males to excel in something other than sports. It should be expressed to them that education is important. Living in the "hood" most young men look up to drug-dealers, gang members, and other improper influences.

I didn't find anything related to this week's topic.
