Starting now, you are beginning the process of creating your professional portfolio for your CDA

by locating two of the 17 Resource File items.

 #14. Contact two or three national early childhood associations and request information
about membership and how to order resources. Send a self- addressed stamped envelope
to receive information from these organizations. For this written assignment, submit the
names, addresses, and purpose of each early childhood association in a Word document.
Later - not for this assignment - when you receive the information from these
organizations, please add these to your resource file.
 #15. Obtain pamphlets (no more than five) designed for parents to help them understand
how young children grow and learn. For this written assignment, submit the titles,
authors, and brief description of each pamphlet. Place the actual pamphlets in your
resource file.

Submit your completed assignment to the drop box below. Please check the Course Calendar for
specific due dates.

Save your assignment as a Microsoft Word document. (Mac users, please remember to append
the ".docx" extension to the filename.) The name of the file should be your first initial and last
name, followed by an underscore and the name of the assignment, and an underscore and the
date. An example is shown below:
