Over the last 8 weeks I have been communicating with Lisa, an early childhood educator from Mexico. The Consequences to speaking with Lisa is that I gained information, I have insight on how bad things are in Mexico, and lastly I learned that more children and families are in need.
My eyes are open to the world around me. My goal is to bring more awareness of the issue that children and families face in Mexico. I work with families that are from Mexico. The goal is to collide with the families as well as my international Contact and see how we can help. You can achieve better results in numbers.

Establishing professional contacts
Different countries may have different educational goals, as well as different feeling about education. To help with gather information on education, I attempted to establish contact with early childhood professional around the world.
I work as a head start teacher. The center I work at is very diverse. We work with families of different cultures. Some of the culture we work with are Burmese, Chin, African American, Nigerian, American, and the Hispanics. We have different translators and advocates that help communicate with these families. To help establish communication with educators from different parts of the world I went to our family Advocate that work with Burmese families. I explain to her my assignment then asked if she know any early childhood educators where she was from. She had friends, and family members that are early childhood educators. She contacted the educators that speak and write English, and ask if it's OK if I contact them. Once MaI San got permission from them she gave me their contact information.
For my second contact I use my classroom assistant as reference. Her name is Lorena and her mom is an early childhood educator in Mexico. I explained my assignment to her and she asked her mom can she be my contact . Her mom speak little English, so Lorena communicate with her mom for me. Her mother agreed to be my contact. The plan is to use Lorena as a translator for her mom. I spoke with her mom briefly and thanked her for agreeing to be my contact.
