Developmental Specialist

"My favorite part is seeing the progress of the children I work with" -Carly

I really related to Carly when she said this in class on Friday because I have felt the same this semester as I have worked with infants and toddlers. One of the toddlers I am working with is working on redirecting from large group to going outside and cleaning up the classroom. This past week, he was able to get his coat and backpack and stand by the rope to go outside. It is amazing to see the progress of young children.

For my HWD this week, I asked Sister Swenson and Sister Cranmer some follow up questions about becoming a speech pathologist. Sister Swenson mentioned that I would just need to do a years worth of classes to get into the master's program at Utah State. Sister Cranmer pointed out that it might be possible for me to do some of the classes online while I am still in Rexburg.

This week in class, we graded each other's family projects and talked about professionalism. I liked the aspect of professionalism that emphasized the importance of being a life long learner. The more I learn, the more I realize how much I don't know.
