Blog Post #4

My field of study is in Elementary and Early Childhood Education. A website that I found is an organization called the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC), http://www.naeyc.org/teachers/. This website is especially made for those interested in early childhood education. There is information on early childhood issues, future conferences, accreditation, and much more. There are also several local branches of this organization here in on Oahu called Hawaii Association for the Education of Young Children, http://www.hawaiiaeyc.org/.
