DEC continued

My exploration of the DEC website this week sent me to the "Resources for families" section.  This lead me to a great list of resources, primarily website resources, for families on all kinds of interests.  Some websites were state specific while others were more general but offered some excellent information, such as; Exceptional Parent magazine at www.eparent.com and Toolkit for Hispanic families at  http://www2.ed.gov/parents/academic/involve/2006toolkit/index.htm 


These websites will provide families with all kinds of information as well as additional helpful links.
This website is all about equity and excellence in early childhood education.  The idea is that all children regardless of culture, race, ethnicity or ability can have access to a least restrictive environment with heavy parent involvement.  
There are some great links for all families in this section of the DEC website, please bookmark and share with families whenever possible and releveant!

    Hi Tammy. Thank you so much for sharing this resource. I really enjoyed reading the toolkit that you provided as a resource. I think with more and more diversity occurring in the United States, equity will become a more prominent issue.

    Hi Tammy, Thank you for sharing the website. I really enjoyed reading the tips for parents. I will be returning to work and preparing for the new school year and I will definitely use the website as my resource to share with families. Thank you for sharing.
