...a clearly defined line in the sand showing what a child should know in their youth, compared to what they shouldn’t know? Since 2015, the issue of child transition has become a concerning issue in the United States, one of morality and legality. The question is should a child of such a young age be the face of what our worldly mission politically? Are we truly willing to end our child’s innocence for our own gains? In two completely different articles, Steven Crowder, a Conservative talk show host, and Samantha Allen, a Liberal columnist for the Daily Beast, discuss the issue of ‘child transition.’ Until the past decade, childhood was not about deciding what gender you were, but going to the park and hanging out with your friends, laughing and playing with each other until it was time to go. Childhood however, has changed immensely,...

The assignment represents your mastery of the Course Learning Outcome 5. In this assignment you will consider a hypothetical transition meeting. To make this meeting more productive, you have decided to create an informational brochure or handout that you would want others in the meeting to understand. For example, as a special educator, what would you want the general educator to know about the transition process, or what would you want the parents to know? To prepare for this assignment, view the video below titled Be a Superstar – Take the Survey – Student.

I was one of them, excited to be the only one in my family to made it to college. I was excited to finally get out of the house away from my parents, finally have some freedom and make my dad proud of me for leaving the town that my family has always stayed in for so long. But as soon as I started actually packing my things and getting ready for school I began to panic and rethinking my decision on leaving. I remember packing my clothes in a big box the night before and crying on my floor thinking about how I was leaving home for longer than I ever had before. High school teachers always talk about how they are...

...Nicole Garner SPT 1130 Motivational Speech April 13, 2015 I. Introduction- If you had the chance to help your child have a better education, would you take that opportunity? It’s not too late, parental involvement can change your child’s education significantly. a. Jane Hull once said “At the end of the day, the most overwhelming key to a child’s success is the positive involvement of parents”. b. According to the Child trends data bank, the national percentage of parental involvement rose significantly from 1999 to 2007, unfortunately these percentages have been declining since 2008. c. With these percentages going in the opposite direction, I would like to take the time educate you on some negative effects on your child’s education from the lack of parental involvement, some solutions that can encourage more involvement, and the benefits that parental involvement can have on your child’s education. Transition: I will begin by discussing some of the negative effects from lack of parental involvement. II. According to the National Voices Project, 73% of parents that took this survey, said that their top reason for lack of parental involvement was due to, parent’s being too busy working. d. Lack of parental involvement-leads to lack of self-confidence, drug use and violence, and ultimately a child dropping out of school. e. Lack of self-confidence can lead to- i.

...Kindergarten Readiness Is your child getting ready to start kindergarten? A child can show many signs of being ready for school. It is up to the parents to recognize these signs such as oral language skills, social skills, motor skills, and identifying letters and numbers. Having some preparation before starting kindergarten can help your child build readiness for starting school. Pre-kindergarten claims that preparation is very important for kindergarten readiness. What is kindergarten readiness? It is determining whether or not a child is ready for kindergarten. With so many child development surveys on children aging from three to five years of age, over six million children entering kindergarten are not adequately prepared for school. (Staff and wire reports, 1987). Children are required to have a certain amount of independence before they start to attend school. (Harker, 2012). To be successful in kindergarten a child must have more skills other than knowing the alphabet or how to write their name. The child’s age, social, motor, and academic skills are a big part of the preparation process. (‘Kindergarten Readiness: More Than Academics”, 2009). Pre-kindergarten preparation has its benefits with teaching children social skills and basic letter recognition needed for kindergarten. On the other hand, children without any kind of kindergarten preparation do not seem to be far behind on social skills but are indeed unprepared in other developing skills such as oral language...

...The article “Helping Babies Make Transitions” provides the reader with an understanding of dealing with change. When faced with challenges how can you handle it? When working with infants and toddlers it is very important to aid them in correct ways. Finding solutions and helping others is key. Included in the article is an example situation of how transitions affect a baby’s physical development. When a baby’s caretaker is changed it can tell things are not the same. The way they are held, fed, and even talked to. They do not know how to express their feelings towards the change which results in them acting out by physically crying or making a fuss. Sometimes a baby’s internal forces can cause the outbreaks ("Helping Babies Make Transitions" ). During periods of time when these transitions occur the article introduces a procedure that can be followed. This three-step process is to Observe, Ask, and Respond (OAR) and can be used to aid in helping babies undergo changes. Even though many programs have plans and set ups to help them with transitions sometimes unexpected things can happen. The observe, ask, and respond process with provide assistance to keep things running as smooth as possible for the facility, baby, and parents involved ("Helping Babies Make Transitions" ). The first step in the process is to observe. When doing observations it is extremely imperative to take in everything! When dealing with infants and toddlers, and their development there are so many...

...A3/A*2 you need to relate these skills to transitions – they are too general and brief for 2 criteria The work I have added on is written in blue When dealing with changes it is important for practitioners to have a range of professional skills. One of the skills that would be important for practitioners would be communication skills and how to differentiate between who you are having a conversation with such as parents, students or other professionals. For example when speaking to a child you would use a child friendly approach but when speaking to other professionals you may use words or phrases that may sound like jargon to other people. A transition that would link in well with needed good communication skills would be when a child has just started a setting, this is because you will need to keep liaising with the parents or guardians of that child about how they are settling in or if there are any issues or concerns, for example a child may not be doing so well when it comes to the...

...Duffy and Pugh both explore the transition from child to adult and the loss of innocence through knowledge and experience. Duffy’s poems “In Mrs Tickers class” and “Boy” represent both ends of the spectrum, as one describes children naturally progressing and the other shows an adult longing to return to infancy, whereas Pugh’s poem “Sweet 18” describes the “perfection” of unspoilt innocence. Duffy creates a familiar childhood setting in the poem “in Mrs Tilscher’s class” by using language such as “growed” and “chalky” to represent a typical classroom and emphasise the light – heated approach to life that innocent children have. By highlighting the trivial priorities that children have, such as finding “a good gold star” and “carefully” sharpened pencils, Duffy portrays the differences between the pressures and priorities of childhood to those of an adult life. Familiar childhood memories give the reader a feeling of safety, this technique is also used in Duffy’s poem “Boy” with the phase “I put my pyjamas on ….” Which reveals that boy in this poem feels safe and comfortable in his pyjamas as perhaps this brings back treasured childhood memories. The innocence of a childhood, however, is often spoilt, whether through growing knowledge or experience or whether through growing knowledge or experience or whether it is forced upon the child abruptly. Duffy foreshadows the transition with the phase “inky tadpoles changed from commas into exclamation marks” showing a growth...

...adopt a child? Rhetorical Purpose: To inform my audience about adoption, and to persuade them that anyone who is seeking to create, or add to, their family should do explore this beautiful option and to make sure that potential adoptive parents know their options and how beautiful this option is. Redemptive Purpose: The choice of adoption is important, and when people do not take advantage of this Godly way of bringing a family together, it leaves children without a loving family. It also could prevent abortions, as it gives birth mothers other options. I. Attention-getter Have you ever thought of adoption as an option for your family? II. Motive for Listening Adoption is a great way to add to your family. III. Credibility Statement A couple from my Bible group just adopted from Ethiopia and their experience was on I followed closely.

...Psychology Developmental psychologists have become increasingly interested in the transformations in family relations that occur in early adolescence. The available evidence suggests that parent and child relations undergo a variety of changes as family members adjust to the biological and psychosocial changes through their early stages in their young lives. Adolescence is the intermediary stage of growth between childhood and adulthood. It represents the period of time during which a person is subjected to an array of natural transformations and runs into a number of emotional tribulations. The ages, which are termed to be part of adolescence, vary by ethnicity and extend from the preteens to nineteen years. “Many of these changes are the normal, scheduled, and inevitable life-transition of adolescence, whereas others are unplanned and experienced by a minority of individuals” (Gunner 123). Adolescence is often divided by psychologist into three distinct phases: early, mid, and late adolescence. In the article Inside Your Teen’s Head, Parade.Com state; “Truth is, the teenage brain is like a Ferrari: it is sleek, shiny, sexy, fast, and it corners really well. But it also has really crappy breaks.” The most difficult phase of life is early adolescence. It is a phase when a child is not yet mature but he is no longer a kid. “Early adolescence is a time of many physical, mental, emotional, and social changes.” (401)Although teens insist that they have grown enough to be self independent...

...amount of stress can stem from divorce, not only for the couple involved but for the child or children involved as well. This paper reflects on the many different effects that divorce can have on children ages eighteen and under in the United States, as well as other countries. In comparison, studies show that there is usually an emotional disconnect involving children of divorced parents or ones whom have begun the long strenuous process. The emotional disconnect can cause children to act different in more ways than one such as; an academically, socially, and unfortunately can lead to relationship problems of their own one day. In contrast, studies are showing signs of improvement in the children of divorced parent but only if the parent seek proper guidance and focus on the security of the child’s feelings and emotions towards throughout the process. Keywords: divorce, children, emotional, social, academic, world, effects The Impact of Divorce on Children At a young age, I became the child of divorced parent, where my parents decided to go their separate ways due to irreconcilable differences. Fortunately, my parents were devoted to raising me together as they planned, just because they had the desire to be in other relationships they agreed that there was no reason to punish me, who had done nothing wrong. Of course, situation as mine are uncommon and it is an absolute tragedy for the child. In today’s society children falling victim to divorce isn’t rare. There was a time...
