1. Summarize the developmental progressions the author describes. What are key points early childhood teachers should keep in mind as they are growing young children to have a firm foundation in math?…
The book outlines the main schemas and shows how we can support children’s learning through supporting their interests. It also outlines the combinations of different schemas we might encounter in our observations and how we can combine the different suggested play ideas. I find this book essential to our work as we often refer to the different schemas of our key children. I think it is a great basis for planning and allows us to talk to children about their interests in for instance straight lines, talking about how cars and bikes move in straight lines and how objects fall down when pushed off the table.…
A review of records indicates that Alina attended preschool at Kids Express at the age of three years old and entered kindergarten at St. Ambrose School at five years old. Her kindergarten progress report indicates that she was able to recognize sight words, express her ideas clearly, form letters correctly, recognize and extend patterns, identify shapes, and sort and classify objects. Moreover, she demonstrated many age appropriate work habits. However, she had difficulty with many of her literacy, writing, and mathematical development skills. Alina struggled with comprehending written materials, associating letter names and letter sounds, writing her ideas clearly, counting numbers, and understanding math concepts.…
Between the ages of 3 and 8 years there are many different areas of mathematical development.…
Unlike Vygotsky, Piaget developed a model of child development and learning. According to him, a child's "cognitive structure" is an intricate system of "mental maps" and concepts, which will help them understand the world their surrounded by. To Piaget, there are four developmental, the first stages deals with sensorimotor stage. At age two, two-year-olds build concepts through interaction with parents or caretakers. The second stage deals with pre-operational. During this stage, ages two to seven years, the child needs to relate to concrete objects or people such as mom, dad, table, dog; ball, football to enable them understand abstract concepts. The third stage is Concrete operations. The child is now able to conceptualize by developing…
My target behavior is to exercise at least three days a week for at least 1 hour and I recorded this information using my cellphone.…
Once the observation is linked with one of these areas I can then write my next steps and plan activities around the area that will aid the child's next development further.…
Each area of learning is linked to the 5 outcomes of the ‘Every child matters’ framework and key early learning goals. The development stages outlined are broad and show different ways children need to achieve these early learning goals. It is centered upon the needs of the individual child, is holistic and enables the child to progress through the areas of learning and development.…
In this day and age, we cannot deny that technology is a key aspect of our daily lives and has definitely made our lives more efficient and convenient in several aspects. 61 million individuals are using mobile phones for health related topics, 29 million patients exchange emails with physicians, and 9 million consumers use health communities online (Nicole Lucarelli). However, many pharmacies are currently not exploiting technology to benefit their companies to their fullest potential. It is thus essential that technology is embraced to allow pharmacies to gain a better understanding of their customers and their needs.…
It can alert when the items you use for your infant are reviewed. Be that as it may, reviewed child items don't for the most part reason for frenzy. Truth is told, in some cases, the issue is effectively settled by evacuating an unsafe part or requesting a repair unit. This is what to do when your child items or toys are reviewed.…
We can effectively plan the development of a child by taking his ideas of ‘schemas’ into practice and using Piaget’s stages we can assess where and how a child is currently learning. From assessment it becomes possible to plan activities to help them to develop onto the next stage.…
“Many children are turning themselves over to Border Patrol agents upon arrival and are not seeking to evade apprehension,” is a statement from the Children in Danger reading that really stood out. It is a statement that highlights the severity of the situation which these minors fleeing from Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador are facing. To be so afraid of where one is coming from that these children feel safer in the hands of border patrol is what makes the participation of other nations in granting asylum to theses individuals imperative. The reading states that, “Honduras had a homicide rate of 90.4 per 100,000 people. El Salvador and Guatemala had homicide rates of 41.2 and 39.9” and that “48 percent of the 404 children UNHCR interviewed…
Pattern of Health Perception and Health Management: List two normal assessment findings that would be characteristic for each age group. List two potential problems that a nurse may discover in an assessment of each age group. | Healthy patterns are established such as brushing their teeth prior to getting dressed and at bedtime Learning to recognize when to wash their hands, | Parents allow preschooler to assist with small task in the kitchen to encourage a healthy lifestyle Preschooler is encouraged to learn basic hygiene. | Child is aware that dirty hand causes illnesses but not why. Parents encourage healthy hygiene such as hand washing and proper bathing |…
We also covered using visualization, spatial reasoning, and geometric modeling to solve problems. Week two we also did an individual assignment to help us understand geometry. Week three we covered the application of geometry using chapters 10 and 11. We analyze geometric definitions and relationships including congruency, triangle properties and triangle inequalities. Circles and arcs are another concept studied as well as proportions between parallel lines and congruent segments. This helped me to study similarity and proportions between polygons and triangle. At the end of week three I was able to specify locations using coordinate geometry, describe spatial relationships using coordinate geometry and use symmetry to analyze mathematical situations. In week four we covered Identify the relevant attributes of objects when solving problems as well as applying appropriate techniques, tools, and formulas to determine measurements. In week five we synthesize the mathematics concepts addressed in this course. As a team we worked on a power point dealing with a three dimensional shape and we discussed the surface, faces, sides, volume as well as…
