Philosophy Paper Rough Draft In your personal philosophy statement you will summarize your professional beliefs and values about early childhood education. Identify your personal values and beliefs around teaching and learning: How do you believe young children learn? Based on this, what do you believe your role is? Beyond teaching and learning, reflect and write about what you believe are the other important aspects of your role in the lives of the children and families. Your paper should be in Times New Roman, 12 point font, double spaced and no less than one page but no more than 2 pages. Remember this a rough draft. I will edited your initial statement and provide feedback. You will be bringing your edited paper to seminar at the end of the training. I would fully expect that you have added, changed, or reflected upon your philosophy paper by that time.
