...Young infants are learning most of their behaviors unconsciously. Albert Bandura (cited in Boyd & Bee, 2006) defines the observation done by infants and children as observation learning or modeling. (p. 31) The first skills that are learned by children at home are the most important skills that help them become great students in the classroom. Literacy skills are not formed in the same manner as speaking. One does not learn to read by simply observing another person reading. Also, one parent does not have the same education level to teach a child as the next parent. Each child has learned a different level of skill based on their parent’s education level. One specific problem is the lack of availability for books. Some parents and children do not have access to books to read to their child. Groups of parents...

...In Savage Inequalities, Jonathan Kozal addresses the devastating inequalities in the American public education system. He chooses to specifically focus on the massive differences between low and high income areas in New York. The state that low income schools are in is truly dismal, schools are capped at a capacity of 900 students, yet 1,300 kid attend each day. Overcrowding is a massive problem and funding is incredibly low for these students. Due to a lack of space, 63 people are in one room attempting to teach and learn. The average spending per pupil is around $5,000. At one of the schools that Kozal visited, there was a ratio of 930 kids to one computer and approximately only 700 books in the library. These kids share simply one small...

...The goal of having anti-basis curriculum is to help children learn to be accepting of others of race, ethnicity, gender, socioeconomic status, disability. Students participating in antibias curriculum become comfortable with diversity and learn to stand up for themselves as a teacher in the future students are learning about difference and they need a teacher to help them to have a positive attitude about people. Students who have a guidance of caring teachers children learn to speak up for themselves and others. By having an accepting environment children find that they have the ability to change situations and have positive attitude in the future. Having anti- basis curriculum begin in early childhood and continue throughout the school year. For example children who start to learn both English and Mandarin Chinese so that by the completion of the school they have the basic proficiency in both languages. The class is taught by an English teacher and Chinese teacher with the help of teaching assistants. Teachers will speak native language they use for instruction. Standards: What should students know and able to do? First Grade Language Arts/ Reading Content: Select materials to read Read aloud familiar stories and poems Use strategies to comprehend Activate: Children can solve problems and think for themselves Children learn best through experience and activates that are interesting. Teaching and learning is child centered Children have the knowledge based on what they...

...Early Childhood Research Quarterly 19 (2004) 375–397 The early childhood classroom observation measure Deborah Stipek∗ , Patricia Byler School of Education, Stanford University, 485 Lasuen Mall, Stanford, CA 94305-3096, USA Abstract This study assesses a new measure of early childhood classroom practice in 127 kindergarten- and first-grade classrooms. The measure was designed to be appropriate for classrooms serving children from the age of 4–7 years. It assesses the nature and quality of instruction as well as the social climate and management of the classroom. Two separate scales assess the degree to which constructivist, child-centered and the degree to which didactic, teachercentered instructional practices are implemented. Findings indicate that the measure produced reliable scores and meaningful, predictable associations were found between scores on the observation measure, on the one hand, and teachers’ self-reported practices, teaching goals, relationships with children, and perceptions of children’s ability to be self-directed learners, on the other. © 2004 Elsevier Inc.

...Running head: PHILOSOPHY OF EDUCATION 1 Philosophy of Education Exploring Different Aspects of My Philosophy of Education Brenda Jo Stone Western Kentucky University Author Note This paper was prepared for Teacher Leader 530, A70, taught by Professor Huss. PHILOSOPHY OF EDUCATION 2 Abstract The purpose of this paper is to define my educational philosophy so I may better understand the direction I take as an educator. The three educational philosophies I will investigate are essentialism, perennialism, and progressivism. The revelations I hope to disclose by this pursuit of fully comprehending my own personal philosophy of education will help me become a better teacher. It is through recognizing what compels my teaching methods that will allow me to see clearly the path I am taking as a teacher. PHILOSOPHY OF EDUCATION 3 Exploring Different Aspects of My Philosophy of Education There are three educational philosophies that I would like to explore deeper to better grasp where my own philosophy of education is rooted. I took the Inventory of Philosophies of Education and found that my responses to the questions lead me to determine that my philosophy of education is a combination of essentialism, perennialism, and progressivism (Sadker & Zittleman, 2009, p.186). These philosophies shape how I approach teaching, classroom management, group dynamics, and curriculum development. It is essential for me as an educator to understand what drives...

Lullabies can be found in every human culture.[2] The English term lullaby is thought to come from "lu, lu" or "la la" sound made by mothers or nurses to calm children, and "by by" or "bye bye", either another lulling sound, or a term for good night.[3] Until the modern era lullabies were usually only recorded incidentally in written sources. The Roman nurses' lullaby, "Lalla, Lalla, Lalla, aut dormi, aut lacta", is recorded in a scholiumon Persius and may be the oldest to survive.[4] Many medieval English verses associated with the birth of Jesus take...

...Vocabulary instruction and the impact it has on reading comprehension is a topic that appears to be discussed but is not researched as much as we previously envisioned. There are many articles discussing how to implement quality instruction to provide vocabulary development at the elementary level. There appears to be little research on how vocabulary directly impacts student reading comprehension. There is also little research on how word walls impact overall vocabulary development. Vocabulary is one of the five major components of reading along with phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency and reading comprehension. All components are essential when it comes to reading but we believe that vocabulary plays an important role both in learning to read and in comprehending text. Readers cannot understand text without knowing what the words they are reading mean. Although we did not find as much research as hoped, we did find a wide variety of articles that examined the impact that vocabulary instruction has on reading. Many of the articles that we found explained a variety of ways to improve vocabulary instruction that would in turn increase vocabulary development. Some studies looked at emerging language skills such as alliteration, rhyming, segment blending and letter-word identification. Others focused more on decoding, word knowledge and word recognition. Other variables considered included age, gender, race or ethnicity, household income, disability and even parental intelligence...

The NRCLD staff worked with the six Regional Resource Centers (RRCs) to identify potential sites and solicit school participation. More than 60 schools across the country initially were considered, and information from 41 of those schools was submitted. The NRCLD research staff reviewed the extensive amount of information submitted and judged that 19 of those schools were engaging in one or more commendable RTI practices based on a review of the following six components of an RTI service-delivery model: • School-wide screening. Screening is a type of assessment characterized by quick, low cost, repeatable testing of critical academic skills or behaviors and can be administered by individuals with minimal amounts of training. A screening measures whether a student should be judged at risk. If a student meets the criteria for at-risk status, he or she is considered for more in-depth...

...America today than when the war on poverty began almost fifty years ago. Despite consistent efforts by the government, nonprofit organizations, and the people themselves, poverty rates in 2012 are very similar to the early 1960s. Social security and Medicaid have reduced the number of seniors living in poverty, but the plight of children has worsened. Several factors have contributed to this problem. As measured by inflation adjusted dollars, wages of low-skill jobs have declined. The number of families headed by unmarried mothers has risen, and large numbers of immigrants with little education have entered the U.S. The combination of these factors have resulted in approximately 20% of our country’s children living in poverty, which is 50% higher than 1969. Historically, the foundational basis for lifting the disenfranchised out of poverty is education. One of the first steps of the civil rights movement was a grassroots movement educating the poor and disenfranchised to a level of literacy that would enable them to register to vote. This strategy was led by Stephen Currier and his wife, Audrey Bruce, the granddaughter of Andrew Mellon, during the early 1960s. Their Taconic Foundation brought the leading civil rights groups together with other foundations including the Stern, Rockefeller, and Norman foundations. The funding to civil rights advocacy associations was matched with volunteers throughout the South who tutored prospective voters in literacy and then sent them...
