The teacher implemented that this was ok. In the beginning of the year, Cassandra was able to use picture clues when she was having a difficult time reading a story. Ms. Perez helped Cassandra with her reading in different ways. Cassandra was able to become a fluent reading because the teacher used guided reading, partner reading and independent reading with Cassandra. Cassandra was able to make progress because she was influenced by practicing with books she knew and with books that she was not so familiar with. She also did activities that reinforced her reading like for example she was learning how to blend words. The way Ms. Perez worked with Cassandra really helped out Cassandra in the end of May because Cassandra was able to use for strategies when she read. For example, Cassandra was able to sound out words, self-correct herself when reading and use picture clues to sound out words. Also at the end of the school year, Cassandra was able to connect her reading with writing out

The young people of today face many influences in their daily lives. Many of these influences are negative and in opposition to not only Christianity, but society in general. These influences on our youth can lead to many troubling activities, the book “Disturbing Behavior: 53 Alarming Trends of Teens and How to Spot Them” provides insight to many of these.
These theories, methods, assessments along with the evidence of success in reading at home make it clear that it is extremely important we try our hardest to support literacy in every child. All students can learn. It’s just a matter of making materials interesting and relevant to them, challenging them (but not to hard), and supporting them along the way.
Living in a healthy, happy environment is crucial for preschoolers as this could influence them later in life, causing them to miss certain milestones in their development. Theorist Erikson believes that there is a task that must be reached before they move on to the next stage of development, Erickson, E (1950) 1963. Development is important in preschoolers as this is when they learn their social skills, language skills and both their fine and gross motor abilities. Many hurdles can be put in place when it comes to determining a preschooler’s health such as; low economic status, lack of childhood education and not having the health model Te Whare Tapa Whā in place as these can all have a detrimental impact on a preschooler’s development in
During my time observing in the special education room I got to see a read aloud where the teacher attempted to get all the students engaged in the lesson, to the best of their ability. The teacher would ask questions after reading each page, and had the students turn the page and make connections to the text. There were four students in the classroom at the time, and they were corrected if any errors were made during the reading, and they were encouraged to participate (to the best of their abilities.)
... Another one of the strategies that I have seen quite often is the disrupting student read-aloud. This has happened to me while teaching many times. I honestly most times thought that these children were causing a ruckus and interrupting because they had behavior issues. Now after reading this section I am much more aware that the instances I have encountered could have been just the child not understanding.
Guiding children’s behaviour is an essential aspect of educating or caring for young children. The two biggest challenges that children normally experiences at their young age are ability to control their own behaviour and understanding acceptable behaviour (Australian Government, 2006). This paper describes about the case study of 4 years old girl Ashley’s inappropriate behaivour problems (e.g., getting disappointment, impatient and refusing to accept the failure), difficulties in following instruction, and physical aggression (e.g., kicking and punching other children) which are common in preschool (Conway, 2009). The below information portrays about the behvioural framework, effective strategies, plans, intervention and, theories to support
Jerry is a 19 year old African-American male college student who has developed a phobia with heights. When he tries to walk across a bridge, for example, he begins to panic, which results in him backing away and avoiding going across at all. It has interfered with his life to the point that he avoids taking classes that are on the upper floors of buildings, and chooses to drive to school from over an hour away in order to avoid staying in a dorm room, since the only ones that were available were on the fifth floor and above. He has had fears of heights ever since he was 10, after he had a traumatic experience when he was trapped on a rollercoaster when it stalled for several hours while he was on it, forcing him to be caught looking down at
Ben is an 11-year-old boy who was referred to me by a teacher to assist with his reluctance to attend school. Ben has missed 20 days of school in 2 months and often goes to the nurse’s office and has left school due to feeling “sick”. Ben was check at by a pediatrician, and there are no medical problems that can explain his difficulties. Ben has a very close relationship with his mother, and sleeps in his mother’s bed every night. He avoids activities that would include him interacting with other kids his age, because of his separation anxiety from his mother. Ben’s mother showers with, dresses and undresses him.. She also grooms his hair because she claims it’s difficult to manage because of tangles. Ben is fully capable of self-care in areas
Today, most contemporary organizations utilize major human behavior theories to be competitive amongst other organizations. However, it is important to discuss not only the theories themselves, but it is imperative to understand the associated communication implications in regards to each theory. Altogether, human behavior theories focus on the how individuals are influenced, what inspires them, and how that inspiration and motivation ultimately influences the organization. Thus, when it comes to human behavior theories, there are several ideas that seek to explain and rationalize human behavior in regards to organizations.
In these days, the world would become more and more cultural. Since phonics is important step for readers, teachers should focus more on it. This is a way to lead them to success on reading. Teachers are able to know how to improve students’ literacy skill; they should dedicate time to each reading and writing. They cannot focus on only one thing. Every part should be balanced for balanced literacy. They should equally practice for each section. It is very important step to be balanced. They have to incorporate reading, writing, listening, and speaking into activities. They should know how to make students to be active to learn new things. They get easily get bored by doing same activity again and again. It also affects for the adults too. It is important to try new and creative activities to improve their skills. Once they incorporate them into activities, they must make students to be actively involved into the lessons to improve their skills. Teacher’s role is important to the students because their skills can be enhanced or dropped depend on teachers’ role. It is hard job for them, but they should lead the students. There are some complexes for balanced literacy, but teachers are able to handle these problems. There are many things to make even. Students do not learn everything at the same time even we do not learn at the same time. Different kinds and different parts
Case studies are a collection of data obtained using various methods gathered on an individual or group to record areas of interest in order to assist with analysis and provide recommendations. The study should include the name of the person, although this should be protected to provide anonymity where appropriate, and a brief description of the subject. The setting where the study is to be performed should be included. The aim of the observation must be presented along with a report of the findings. The type of method used will depend upon the subject and the area of interest. Data is gathered on the subject in this case observations were used to provide the data. An interpretation of the study will be made in order to provide a conclusion and recommendations made if applicable. Freud famously used the case studies that he carried out on his patients to develop his Psychoanalytic Theory.
