Process of coming to full development Dentition e. Process of teething General Development of the Infant The term "development" refers to age-related changes in our characteristics and capacities. The term "norms" refers to what is normal, or typical. Developmental norms refer to typical characteristics or patterns of development at any given age. We must study the development of many different types of characteristics. There are four general areas of human development, physical (changes in our body), cognitive (changes in our knowledge and understanding), emotional (changes in our knowledge and ability to manage our emotions) and social (changes in how we understand and interact with other people). The characteristics and abilities of children change as they get older. It is important to keep in mind that the time frames presented are averages and some children may achieve various developmental milestones earlier or later than the average but still be within the normal range. Doctors generally determine what is normal by referring to a percentile. A percentile is the percentage of people who get an equal or lower score than any given score. For instance...

...2. How are the babies similar in their development? How are they different? Give specific examples. (Refer to growth and development principles discussed in class). One similarity in the development of the babies would be their response anytime they were upset - crying. Some examples would be Mari starting to cry because other kids were crying, or Baryarjargal being whipped in the face by his older brother. Another similarity is the sequential process in which they developed. For example, each baby didn’t start walking until capable of standing, and each baby didn’t start standing until capable of crawling. However, what is different in their development is the rate at which each baby progressed in the five areas of development. While one baby may learn to walk sooner, another may learn to read at a higher level than babies their age. Another difference is the language they learn growing up. Being from different parts of the world, the babies will start to make sounds closely...

...development proceed from head to toe. Hence, the child first learns to control his head, then his body, arms and then legs. These milestones provide a guide to parents telling them what to expect and when to expect it.”(Physical development in Infants starts right at birth. Infants cannot control their body movements. Most of their movements are called reflexes. Their nervous system is not entirely developed. During the first months, infants can see clearly objects that are about 10 inches away from their faces. This is why holding baby close and looking at them face to face is important with bonding. By six months, their vision is more fully developed. By four months, most babies have some control of their muscles and nervous system. They can sit with support, hold their head up for short periods of time, and can roll from their side to their stomach. By five months, most babies can roll over. The next characteristic of infant development is social and emotional. . Babies cry to express anger, pain and hunger. It is their way of communicating. They begin to build trust as their parents or caregivers meet their needs. These needs can be met by feeding them when they are hungry, changing their diaper, and holding and comforting them when they cry. Infants smile in response to an enjoyable sound or when their tummy is full. Jean Piaget was among the first...

...this short story to Bob Dylan. Oates admitted in an interview that after hearing Bob Dylan’s “It’s All Over Now, Baby Blue” she was inspired to write the story. (Davidson, 1997) Leave your stepping stones behind, something calls for you Forget the dead you’ve left, they will not follow you The vagabond who’s rapping at your door Is standing in the clothes that you once wore Strike another match, go start anew And it’s all over now, Baby Blue (Dylan, 1965) After hearing these lyrics in Dylan’s song, it is very easy to identify the scene with Connie speaking to Arnold Friend through the screen door. The song’s eerie tone adds a greater depth to Arnold and Connie’s conversation. In an interview on Youtube, Oates was asked why she dedicated the story to Bob Dylan, and her response was: “…Dylan was in a phase where he was writing music like “It’s All Over Now, Baby Blue” and that song, and some others on the same album were rather like fairy tales and nursery rhymes that had gone wrong. He had taken a kind of simplicity of imagery and linked it to a kind of gothic cautionary mold.” (Where Are You Going, Where Have You Been? and Bob Dylan, 2011) The song was just one ingredient in Oates’s recipe for a story that is still discussed decades after it was written. The haunting melody of Dylan’s song proved to be a great inspiration to Oates. Rock ‘n’ Roll was at the forefront of popular music, at the time that...

...put you in the mood. So in my opinion I believe it is hard to dispute that music has some effect on all people, but in a youth that is still developing their values and morals I believe it has a lot of effect. So imagine combining both music and pictures , you get music videos. It is hard to pin point why students are in elementary, middle school, and high school grades dropping plus a higher dropout rates are higher . Plus kids are getting STD,s and pregnant at an earlier age. But look at all the sex and sexual things that are in music videos. This kids look up at these artist as role models, but the artist take on none of the responsibility . Just as the kids at day care song songs of ABC, s now it’s about sex, drugs and rock n’ roll. The extensive watching of videos has greatly affected the demeanor of dressing in female and male teens. I believe strongly that the sex in music videos is one of the main reasons grades and the youth values on sex have changed. ( Lopez., 2007) . Another horrible vision that the music videos depict is the use of drugs and not just light drugs but heavy ones. In the genre of hip hop if you look at the videos you will probably notice either a baby bottle or a Styrofoam cup. Both represent hip hop artist drinking cough syrup call Tussionex or Promethazine. These are extremely addictive and get you high for days. I have friends that drunk these narcotics in the mid 90’s it was underground and few knew of these syrups...

Fred Astaire is still considered to be one of the greatest dancers of all time. Why do you think some people hold his ability in such high regard (what was special about it)?

...American cultural history, when rock and roll was giving birth to the Sexual Revolution and everything in America culture was about to be turned upside down. Record companies were releasing more than a hundred singles every week and the country was about to explode. Grease, generally considered a trivial little musical about The Fabulous Fifties, is really the story of America’s tumultuous crossing over from the 50s to the 60s, throwing over repression and tradition for freedom and adventure (and a generous helping of cultural chaos), a time when the styles and culture of the disengaged and disenfranchised became overpowering symbols of teenage power and autonomy. Originally a rowdy, dangerous, over-sexed, and insightful piece of alternative theatre, Grease was inspired by the rule-busting success of Hair and shows like it, rejecting the trappings of other Broadway musicals for a more authentic, more visceral, more radical theatre experience that revealed great cultural truths about America. An experience largely forgotten by most productions of the show today. Like Hair before it and The Rocky Horror Show which would come a year later, Grease is a show about repression versus freedom in American sexuality, about the clumsy, tentative, but clearly emerging sexual freedom of the late 1950s, seen through the lens of the middle of the Sexual Revolution in the 1970s. It’s about the near carnal passion 1950s teenagers felt for their rock and roll, the first art form that actually changed...
