    We have been talking about Ethnography, which very simply put, creates a narrative based on field research about a particular group or culture. As practice for your own group Ethnography projects, you will write a short personal narrative, which uses digital technology, narrative elements and rhetorical appeals to tell your story. You are expected to create a map of a city of your choice and tell your story, your personal narrative, in Google Maps. Your composition must have at least five locations points. Each of the points should have a short “blurb” description. I strongly encourage you to think about how your experience connects to either a larger social issue or something you learned—about yourself, your surroundings, or the world. You are to use Google Maps as an aid to help you tell your story. Consider how readers will navigate through your locations and how Google Maps functions to help you tell your story.…

    | This law has been put in place to protect everyone in the setting, not only in childcare settings but in every work place. It is crucial that practitioners put this legislation into place as it makes everyone in the setting safe and it ensures everyone’s safety. The act makes sure that the maintenance of the work place and the people in it are protected against risks to health and safety arising out of or in connection with the activities of persons at work. ‘An Act to make further provision for securing the health, safety and welfare of persons at work, for protecting others against risks to health or safety’ http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1974/37.In most childcare settings toys/products bought by them must have the BSI kitemark sign or the CE mark, this ensures that the toys/products the children are using are safe to play with and meet the legal requirements that are needed for them to be allowed to be used ‘Many products such as toys must meet legal requirements before they can be sold within the European Union and must carry a CE mark. This shows that the product meets European rules.’(Tassoni.P pg.140). When I go to my placements for the first time they always ask to see my CRB this shows them that I am safe to work with and be around children. In child care settings it is your employer who has a duty of care to look after you and others, as far as possible, your health, safety and welfare while you are at work. They should start with a risk assessment to spot possible health and safety hazards. But this is a team effort and if a risk arises you must report it immediately. These are done to help keep children safe from any possible harm.…

    Escape is a theme consistent within both J.B Salinger’s “Catcher in the Rye” and Mark Twain’s “Huckleberry Finn” and is demonstrated through linguistic and literary techniques. In “The Catcher in the Rye” I have chosen the last three pages of Chapter 24 where Holden Caulfield, the protagonist, is spending the night sleeping on his previous teacher’s couch. The Huckleberry Finn extract I have chosen occurs in the beginning of Chapter 4. Huckleberry Finn has been kidnapped by his father and is now trapped in a cabin in the middle of the woods.…

    Montessori’s theories are still being practiced in Montessori schools, early childhood classrooms and daycare centers around the world today. According to the American Montessori Society there are more than 4000 Montessori schools in the United States. However, Montessori’s theories are not just practiced in the schools that bear her name; they are also being practiced in other early childhood centers and daycares. As observed at the LCC Camille Prada Early Childhood Development Center, the prepared environment theory is put into practice since all the classrooms have furniture and materials that are sized according to the age of the children that are in that class. As the children grow and move into other classrooms, the furniture increases in size and the materials and the manipulatives become more complex. In like manner, each classroom has art, science, dramatic play, manipulatives, music, and reading centers. Here, the autoeducation theory is practiced, as children are able to move from center to center as they choose, displaying independent learning. For example, in the 3-year-old classroom, several students were sitting at a table coloring papers while other children were using other centers. The teachers were nearby observing the children and ready to…
