I will be uploading my work as I create it here, for my slides. Very excited to see how our project turns out ladies! __Slide 1:__ (Slide numbers have changed, this is actually Slide #5 now (Deb)) Who is Generation X  · Born 1961-1981 (Brown, 1997) · Children of Baby Boomer generation (NATCO) · AKA “Latchkey Kids” (NATCO) · Current Educators(Nicoletti & Merriman, 2007) · ages 27-42 (NATCO)

Generation X can be described as the post-baby boomer generation. They are the children of those born and raised from 1920-1960. Generation X includes people born roughly between 1961 and 1981. They were considered ‘latchkey kids’ because they were the first generation of kids to have both parents working, and would therefore be coming home from school to a locked house, so needed a key. They represent a generation that dealt with a quickly changing economy and family structure. Our current educators are considered to be a part of Generation X, although some are also part of the baby boomer generation. Members of Generation X are currently between the ages of 27 and 42.
