Week 2

The knowledge I have gained about my topic as a result of the research I’ve done is that Head Start is an early education program that benefits the family as a whole. The resources the program provides extends beyond the child’s individual needs. The Head Start program focuses on bringing families and community together in order to provide the best care for children.

The new search strategies I used was the Leatherby Libraries E-books tab. I had never known about that tool before. I used the Blackwell Reference Online references to locate my first source. The source was very informative and scholarly written. The authors were well educated in early childhood education and had great knowledge of Head Start. My second resource was the Head Start website. The website was very informative as it shared information directly from the source. A specific aspect of my topic that I would like to research further is how do children in Head Start compare to those not in Head Start academically in their primary grades.
