Non-parental childcare is defined as care a child receives that is not from a mother, father or guardian and includes the use of daycare provider inside or outside the home by relative, non-relative, nursery school or preschool. In this paper the examination of three types of non-parental childcare and the analyzing of the influence non-parental childcare has on psychological, social and cognitive development. In today’s society parent are pursuing their careers and working outside of the homes. There is a demand for children to be taken care of while parents are working in order to provide for their families. When parents have to work in order to provided financially for their family non-parental childcare is needed. Parents seek different types of care, depending on their working hours, affordability, and the quality of childcare offered. Not all non-parental daycare offer the same benefits in hours, rates or quality of care needed. The first two types of non-parental childcare are daycare center providers and family daycare providers where children from six weeks to eleven years of age can attend these facilities.

Parents have guidelines that they must follow pertaining to the center expectation from the parent. The staff-child ratio varies...

...differently in elementary school than girls? “Statistically speaking, there are more boy geniuses than there are girl geniuses; if this is true, then why is there a major disparity in achievement between boys versus girls in school?” (Fioriello 1). In my opinion the disparity lies with some teachers not having enough patience to deal with little boys in the classroom. Nor do they possess proper training to differentiate the fact that; boys are very much different than girls in chemical brain development. Even before my son was born I have always wondered and suspected if boys are treated differently in school than their girl counterparts? This question has been on my mind of years as an afterthought, but once my son entered kindergarten my suspicions were once again aroused. I have always kept abreast of the growing issues of class room disparity among boys and girls; it was always something that interested. Now that I have my son Michael, who by the way entered first grade this year, I am in full battle gear. I am a one woman advocate at this point for boys and learning. Let me point out now, this is not a paper on race disparity in the public school system, it is a paper on gender disparity. Yes, there is a racial discontent among African American and Alston 2 Hispanic boys in the classroom concerning learning and being taught. I refuse to jump on the racial...

...Abbott V. Burke Abbott v. Burke are cases about education where the board of education fails to provide adequate education to the urban children. Their claim is that all students should have a right to an equal education regardless of where they are from and how much money they have. There have been a few times that this case has been re opened and wouldn’t surprise me if you hear about it being revisited again. With the recent budget cuts and everything going on in this country it will be only a matter of time before it gets revisited. Abbott v. Burke is a complex case that takes place throughout over two decades. The decisions of the New Jersey Supreme court have led to better and more progressive educational policies and funds in to poor school districts. Initially the case centered on whether or not the poor school districts should be compared to wealthier districts when it comes to considering educational funding, however now it centers on various ways of improving the school systems in the poorer communities. In 1981 on the 5th day of February the education law center, the attorneys for the state of New Jersey’s public school children in the four most needy or poor cities in the state of New Jersey, filed a complaint against several state officials. The complaint was that they were demanding that a thorough and efficient education should be given to those children in these areas as well. Abbott is a model for conducting successful state reform litigation. He conducted...

...Assignment 1: Training and Development in Small Business Professor Thomas Swinney Training and Development November 14, 2014 Development in in Small Business Daycare centers are used most often by working parents, single mom’s and dad’s and sometimes stay at home parents who want some time to themselves a couple days a week. It’s a great alternative if you don’t have relatives that are available to watch your children that are not old enough to go to elementary school. Daycare centers should provide the emotional and social needs for babies that are crucial during the first two years of life in developing the learning structures of the brain. They provide a loving environment that will give your child a chance to grow and learn with other children their age and generally centers take kids as young as 6 weeks old to 6th grade. A center that has an after school program is another great way to supply additional income to the center by offering after school activities to keep kids busy until they are picked up by their parent after they are done working. Daycare centers that are not part of a big chain lack standard training for their personal. The person’s that are in the room’s with the younger kids are normally mothers, grandmothers or young adults that love kids but aren’t necessarily trained to watch them and nurture them during their development stages. Training should be a very big part of hiring teachers in daycare centers and it should be on-going where...

...Kawonda Starling Programs and Curriculum Planning ECE 312 Administrations of Early Childhood Ed. Programs Instructor Tracy Reed June 2, 2013 Early childhood education programs are formed by administrators coming together to form curriculums for teachers in the program to have as a guide to teach young children. For an example, each county has a board of education for the school system with administrators who form a curriculum for teachers to teach by; and administrators leads the teachers to make sure the teachers are teaching children based on the curriculum formed by the board of education. Child care centers usually form curriculums based around what program the center is accredited by through the state. For an example, here in Georgia we have a program name “Bright from the Start” which has standards each center must meet to be on the program and have curriculum for each child care center to follow. Whether it is a school system or childcare center administrators and teachers must work together to teach from the curriculums formed so children can learn. How the role of the administrator in program and curriculum planning is different from that of the teacher. Education administrators organize and manage the administration, support systems and activities that facilitate the effective running of an educational institution (AGCAS 2012). For an example, in a childcare center the administrators are the owners, directors, and whatever program that accredited the daycare...

...Washington Post "African American History, Never forgotten...Hopefully" By ELEEDREA HARRISON July 30th, 2015 Pre-Columbian Era, The New World, The Colonies, Slavery and the Struggle for Empire, World War I, The Sixties and The Conservative Turn of America. These are some highlight chapter titles from a standard United States history textbook. Notice how there is a chapter in the textbook focused on slavery. Slavery is a very dark time in American History; where blacks were captured, brought to America and forced to live in devastating conditions. The American school system has forcefed this timeline of history to it's citizens from grades K-12. White American children in the United States school system learn the "ups and downs" about American history (depending on how much they pay attention). Whereas African American children also learn that same information but lack the full understanding of their own history in America. Slavery is an important aspect of United States History but not the only aspect of history that African Americans were apart of. African Americans have been soldiers, inventors, doctors, writers and teachers. They have made vast contributions to American society. Nevertheless, children growing up in the United States K-12 school system no very little or none at all of African American accomplishments. Since African Americans have done so much to contribute to America, shouldn't their history be told in schools? Carter G. Woodson, a historian, author...

...D2 I had an interview at Little Owls Pre School Nursery and was called by the manager named as Elaine Kelly. I was called on 26th Jan 2014 at any time between 9am till 3:15pm so I asked my sister and dad to drop me but unfortunately they were not free that day so I asked my brother he said he was available at 1pm so I decided to go at that time because I did not have any fix time by the manager so the day before my interview I texted Elaine as I had her mobile number and asked her that was it possible that she will be free at 1pm to see me and she replied that she is available. After doing my college and house work I read the letter that I got from Jacque and in that there were some restrictions on dressing so I read that and I was not allowed to wear short dresses, jeans and trainers so I decided to wear my simple and decent Asian clothes and then took them out of the cupboard and ironed them after that I took matching shoes and made sure they were clean after that I took out my DBS certificate from my file and put that in my bag and then made sure that my college ID was in bag. Then I put an alarm on my phone in case I might be in deep sleep as I had a day off from college and then done a bit research on the nursery and went to sleep. Firstly according to the navigation system where I reached it was near the nursery but I could not see any board saying the nursery name so then I called Elaine and she told me the right place and then I reached safely there first I rang my brother...

...assignment relate to your observation assignment? The benchmark assignment was really beneficial as I went into the classroom because I was able to see those things in action and notice what the teacher was doing that was good at this specific age group. It helped me to pay attention to things that were beneficial and things that might need to be altered a little bit to be more conducive to the kindergarteners. How did the BYU Preschool or Kindergarten observation help you write the PowerPoint? I loved doing the observation because it gave me ideas of things we could do to implement the benchmarks and Utah state learning objectives in the classroom. It helped me to notice what would be good to use and things that would be better for a different age group. My observation experience gave me insight into the responses that children would give to different activities and to the teacher. How can you implement the information gained from all assignments in your future classroom--even if you don’t choose to work with preschool or kindergarten-age children? Something that I think is a really good activity is having children have buddies from a different grades. So no matter which grade teach, I can make note of the benchmarks and have buddies in different grades and implement those to make sure they get the best experience possible. In general, it is important to take the benchmarks and apply them to the presentations of the curriculum, so they can learn in the most conducive manner...

...subjected to different types of stimulation that can greatly impact both their cognitive development as well as social skills later in life. Daycare can also enhance those children’s ability to learn at a faster pace when entering kindergarten. For this reason, daycare should be available to infants and young children prior to entering grades K-12. Social skills are very important not only for adults, but for children as well. The development of a person’s social skills begins at birth and grows rapidly from there. A great place for a child to start building these skills would be in the form of daycare. When a child is in daycare, they are automatically subjected to a world full of different types of people. As stated in the article, Pre School years equally as important as K-12, “Licensed caregivers in either a pre-school or daycare setting have the skills and knowledge to guide young children through this social maze” (Courtenay, B.C. para 5) Daycare provides an environment for infants and young children to interact with different types of people which then helps them learn to develop relationships at an early age. (DiLalla, 1998) All of these things help set a path for continued success in the future as well as prepares a child for transition into kindergarten. There is a strong connection between the development a child undergoes early in life and the level of success that the child will experience later in life. When infants and young...

With this deal, schools will be able to provide tablets without going above their school budget. According to a student, he only spent eighty dollars on his digital copy. The used hard copy would have cost him two hundred dollars. With this information, eBooks is the better deal for both students and the school system. If students begin using technology at an early age such as kindergarten, they will be better equipped to handle technology if or when they use it in future classes or there work place. Now teachers are worried that some kids will either lose or accidentally break electronics. However, if students learn how to handle technology at an early age such as kindergarten. These children will be able to handle it better when they move on to high school and college.
