https://www.industryweek.com/talent/teamwork/article/22015086/50-years-in-the-trenches-five-lessons-on-teamwork From my experience with groups, I would have to say the hardest group to leave was band concessions (Band Boosters).  While in this group, we overcame challenges, built friendships, and supported our children in the band.  It was the most difficult to leave because it was so much fun.  During the downtimes in the concession stand, we joked around and talked about family and life challenges.  At the end of every year, we participated in a banquet and dance for the students.  The adults danced the night away with the students.  Being a part of the Band Boosters had its challenges because of all of the personalities within the group.  However, we always seemed to find a solution.  We participated in lock-ins, where the students stayed up all night playing games and other activities, fundraisers, concession stand, and marching competiti...

Sharing Web Resources (week 4)

With COVID-19 at the forefront of everyone's mind recently, organizations have made heartfelt statements about being "in this together".  NAEYC.org has made a statement as well.  It is also providing resources for educators and families.  There are topics like: Coping with COVID-19, Making Videos at Home: Tips for Educator, and Statement from NAEYC on Passage of CARES Act ( Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security ).  The CARES Act has " critical provisions that will help multiple parts of the complex early childhood education sector, addressing some of the needs expressed by parents, educators, programs, and small businesses across states and settings."  I am relieved to know that there is something in place to help facilities facing this crisis.  I am also relieved because this demonstrates that economists and politicians are coming together to meet the urgent needs of child care facilities and educators in the U.S.  In addition to working du...
