Chapter 8: The Preschool Years
The preschool years are important. Research shows us that children who attend preschool do better in kindergarten and first grade. However, not every state offers public preschool. And, many schools that do offer this, offer it only to children with special needs (and then regular education students may need to win a lottery to get in). Although children who do not have a special need may attend, they are usually screened and placed on waiting lists. Also, there is typically a tuition to pay for the child if he/she does not have a special need.
Your text introduces the idea of universal prekindergarten: providing preschool for every child whose parents want it (preschool for all children) on page. But, keep in mind that universal prek doesn’t mean that your child must attend, it simply means that it is available if you would like it. I point this out because many people (in particular, stay at home moms) think that this is the government’s way of not allowing them the choice to stay home and educate their own child. Therefore, there are parents who are against this.
In the past, socialization skills were the focus of prekindergarten however; sad but true, today there is a decided move away from socialization as the primary function for enrolling children in preschool. Preschools are now promoted as places to accomplish many more skills than just socialization! This plays a role in my comments above about not all parents favoring universal prek; the stress toward academic success is definitely a concern for many.
Of course, high-quality affordable preschool can be difficult to come by. We know that children benefit from attending high-quality preschool, but high-quality preschool also often comes with a high price. Thus, it can be difficult for many parents to have the ability to send their child to preschool.
The children of today are different than the children of the past. Aside from the many academic expectations the children have placed upon them, we may need to find new and innovative ways to teach them - making the learning environment interesting and engaging everyday!
Physical Development
During the preschool years, children begin to "slim down" as they have a more elongated look. Their muscle development continues to develop and their actions become more precise. They enjoy activities such as drawing, painting, cutting, and coloring. They also learn more about how to take care of themselves as they learn about hygiene - washing hands and brushing teeth - as well as the ability to dress one's self.
Social/Emotional Development
Preschool children are in Erikson’s psychosocial development state of initiative versus guilt. It’s important to keep this in mind because it can be difficult to have patience with young children! You want children to want to take initiative and try things. Provide them with freedom and do not make them feel bad (or “guilty”) for having motivation and willingn ...

Hi my name is Gloria, I am sixty three years old, and I plan to graduate in October of 2016 with a Bachelor degree in Organization Manager. I have taken my entire course for my degree I am working on my elective course so I decided to take a minor in child hood development. I thought that it would be a good course since I have work with children all my life, raising ten children and only three from nature birth. I now work with Garland independent school district and come in contact with children every day. I community with people through knowledge, everyone come to me for advice, I listen to everyone problem and try to give the best advice possible and if I don’t have the answer we try to investigate and come up with the right one. I love helping people in any way that I could, planning on retiring from my job that I have been on for seventeen years with the school. After I retire if I have to go back to work I am leaning toward benign school counselor or an adviser working with children. That is if God allow me to do it.

In the early childhood classroom, silence is not golden. Spoken words are opportunities for learning that should take place throughout the day - especially during conversations between children and between teachers and children.
Human language is a remarkable way to communicate. No other form of communication in the natural world transfers so much information in such a short period of time. It is even more remarkable that in three short years a child can hear, mimic, explore, practice, and finally, learn language.
Language learningthere is no genetic code that leads a child to speak English or Spanish or Japanese. Language is learned. We are born with the capacity to make 40 sounds and our genetics allows our brain to make associations between sounds and objects, actions, or ideas. The combination of these capabilities allows the creation of language. Sounds come to have meaning. The babbling sound "ma - ma - ma" of the infant becomes mama, and then mother. In the first years of life children listen, practice, and learn. The amusing sounds of a young toddler practicing language (in seemingly meaningless chatter) are really their modeling of the rhythm, tone, volume, and non-verbal expressions they see in us.
Language -with all of its magnificent complexity- is one of the greatest gifts we give our children. Yet, we so often treat our verbal communication with children in a casual way. It is a misconception that children learn language passively. Language acquisition is a product of active, repetitive, and complex learning. The child's brain is learning and changing more during language acquisition in the first six years of life than during any other cognitive ability he is working to acquire. How much easier this learning process can be for children when adults are active participants!

This document provides an overview of key physical, social, emotional, cognitive, and literacy development milestones for kindergarten-aged children, along with teaching tips. Kindergarteners vary in experiences but generally show enthusiasm for learning, improved ability to follow directions, and desire for social interaction. The document outlines physical skills, importance of social-emotional development, cognitive shifts in thinking, language and literacy growth, and tips for smooth transitions into and out of kindergarten, including communicating with families. Sample Common Core standards are also referenced.
The pandemic posed many challenges for parents especially with the growing concern on the decline in empathy among kids. Parents realised that the years of isolation from other kids posed a serious gap in the social and emotional skills of their children. Many kids misbehave and most became uncaring and self-centered.

Reading to children, even infants, provides numerous benefits for language development according to this document. It fosters vocabulary, pronunciation, an understanding of grammar, and strengthens the bond between parent and child. Several theories explain language development in children, including innate abilities and social learning from caregivers. Studies show children who are read to regularly perform better academically and socially. While some may argue against reading to infants, the document provides evidence that it significantly aids language development.

Parents and caregivers role towards childSulochanaShah
Parents are the child's first role model. Children behave, react and imitate same as their parents. Parents play important role in encouraging and motivating their kids to learn. Good parental support helps child to be positive, healthy and good life long learner.The proper role of the parent is to provide encouragement, support, and access to activities that enable the child to master key developmental tasks. A parent is their child's first teacher and should remain their best teacher throughout life. Parental involvement not only enhances academic performance, but it also has a positive influence on student attitude and behavior. A parent's interest and encouragement in a child's education can affect the child's attitude toward school, classroom conduct, self-esteem, absenteeism, and motivation.
So, the role of parents and caregivers are very important for every child. Some of the renowned theorist have also have given their views and ideas through research.
Let's implement their ideas in our daily life.
This document discusses Piaget's three stages of child development as they relate to observing a child's social behaviors during recess or lunch at school. The observer would pose as a school staff member and measure how the child's social behaviors like sharing, taking turns, and communication change over time when interacting with peers. The goal is to assess the child's social development and competency through observing them in a social setting like recess.

CHAPTER 4
Building an Anti‑Bias Education Program: Clarifying and Brave Conversations with Children
Everything teachers do—setting up the learning environment; planning the curriculum; observing, assessing, and thinking about individual children; and so much more—rests upon establishing strong, caring, and trusting relationships with children and families. Without such relationships with their teachers, children find it hard to open up, to learn, to grow, to feel safe. These relationships are built onSeeing each individual child as a member of a unique family with many, often complex, social identities that shape their learning and ways of beingRespecting each child’s individual way of learning and being rather than imposing an expected behaviorKnowing how children learn to think and how they are, and are not yet, able to discern what is happening around themUnderstanding that children are in the process of learning at all times and that it takes many experiences before they master an idea or a behaviorListening carefully to each child to understand how each is making sense of experiences and/or behavior
An essential element in building strong relationships is your willingness to engage in conversations that support children’s sense of self, that let them know they are safe and honored exactly as who they are. Children live in a world that sends multiple, stereotype‑laden messages about their comparative value, their right to be visible, and how they are expected to behave based on their economic class, ethnicity, gender, abilities, racial identity, and religion. These overt and covert messages affect their own sense of self‑worth and how they think about people who are different. Avoiding conversations about identity and fairness is a disservice to children who are developmentally dependent upon adults to help them make sense of the complex and contradictory societal messages they receive.
When programs do not demonstrate respect for and acknowledgement of human diversity, children and families cannot feel truly seen or honored. When a teacher avoids directly addressing comments or behaviors that can hurt another child, no child feels safe. Keeping silent not only does not help children, it actively hurts them. Learning how to break this silence, how to talk about anti‑bias issues with clarity, courage, and caring, is an essential skill not only in the world of early childhood education but in the world at large. This chapter explores ways to build trusting relationships with children by directly talking about identity, diversity, injustice, and activism, which correspond to the four goals of ABE.The Hurtful Power of Silence
It is hoped that children will turn to their trusted adults when they are confused or are hurt by their experiences. But to do so, children need a vocabulary to describe what they are thinking. Too often, adults ignore children’s attempts to understand how people can be different from one another and yet the same. A Whit ...

This document summarizes interviews with several teachers and practitioners who use the Words in Color method to teach literacy in France. It finds that Words in Color is particularly effective for those working with the most intractable literacy problems, such as illiterate adults and children struggling to learn to read. The interviews highlight how Words in Color respects how children naturally learn through exploration, keeps students engaged and motivated through its visual nature, and helps all students learn at their own pace and ability level.

What is Three Year Old Kindy
This is a educational programmed for pre-kindergarten children aged 3 and 5 years. The programmed helps to develop independence and creativity by offering interesting and fun activities that are developmentally appropriate in a semi structured form. The programmed follows a routine similar to a kindergarten and the children are left in the care of a Qualified Child Care Professional and Assistant for the duration of the session
The document discusses the importance of lifelong learning. It describes how the author has always had a curious nature and enjoyed learning new things from a young age. It details some of the author's educational and career experiences that have sparked further learning. The author expresses how pursuing an MLIS degree will help achieve professional goals of providing access to resources and demonstrating that new technology need not deter access to information.
The document discusses early childhood development from birth to age 8. It emphasizes that this stage is crucial for building brain architecture and lays the foundation for future learning, behavior, and health. Caregivers play a key role by nurturing the whole child, observing their development, and supporting their growth across all developmental domains through responsive relationships and active learning experiences. The document stresses the importance of healthy, safe environments as well as two-way communication between families and care providers to support each child's unique strengths and needs.
- Early literacy skills like phonological awareness, print motivation, and vocabulary are strong predictors of reading ability later in childhood and can help prevent achievement gaps.
- Public libraries have responded to research on the importance of early literacy by providing resources to help children develop skills like print awareness and narrative skills before starting school.
- Developing these six early literacy skills through practices like reading, writing, playing and talking with children helps them become "ready to read" by kindergarten.
This document discusses language acquisition and development in young children. It covers several topics:
- The importance of language and communication for children and encouraging their language skills through listening exercises.
- Creating a language-rich environment for children through reading, storytelling, and interactions to support their linguistic development.
- The role of babbling in early language practice and development in children.
- Transitioning to preschool and the language skills children learn there like following directions and making friends.
- Reflecting on how digital technologies have influenced the way today's children think and learn requiring educators to also keep up with technology.

The document discusses the importance of relationships in early childhood education. It states that relationships are at the heart of early education programs and affect children's social skills, academic success, and brain development. When children experience emotionally supportive environments in the early years, their achievement increases. The document also discusses Maslow's hierarchy of needs and the teacher's role in helping children feel a sense of belonging and supporting diversity. It emphasizes that within families, infants and toddlers begin to develop identity and learn important life skills through relationships.

JUNIUS BASSUS SARCOPHAGUS Another pagan convert to Christianity was the city prefect of Rome, Junius Bassus, who, according to the inscription on his sarcophagus (FIG. 8-7), was baptized just before he died in 359. The sarcophagus is of eclectic format—decorated only on three sides in the western Roman manner (see Chapter 7), but divided into two registers of five compartments, each framed by columns in the tradition of Asiatic sarcophagi (FIG. 7-61). In contrast to the Santa Maria Antiqua sarcophagus (FIG. 8-6), the deceased does not appear on the body of the coffin. Instead, stories from the Old and New Testaments fill the niches. Christ has pride of place and appears in the central compartment of each register: as a teacher enthroned between his chief apostles, Saints Peter and Paul (above), and triumphantly entering Jerusalem on a donkey (below). Appropriately, the sculptor placed the scene of Christ’s heavenly triumph above that of his earthly triumph. Both compositions owe a great deal to official Roman art. In the center of the upper zone, Christ, like an enthroned Roman emperor, sits above a personification of the sky god holding a billowing mantle over his head, indicating that Christ is ruler of the universe. The scene below derives from portrayals of Roman emperors entering cities on horseback, but Christ’s steed and the absence of imperial attributes contrast sharply with the imperial models the sculptor used as compositional sources. All of the Old Testament scenes on the Junius Bassus sarcophagus are precursors of New Testament events (see “Jewish Subjects in Christian Art,” page 213). Adam and Eve, for example, are in the second niche from the left on the lower level. Their Original Sin of eating the apple in the Garden of Eden ultimately necessitated Christ’s sacrifice for the salvation of humankind. To the right of the entry into Jerusalem is Daniel, unscathed by flanking lions, saved by his faith. At the upper left, Abraham is about to sacrifice Isaac. Christians believe this Old Testament story was a prefiguration of God’s sacrifice of his own son, Jesus. The Crucifixion itself, however, does not appear on the Junius Bassus sarcophagus.

INTERACTIONS AMONG POVERTY, ACCESS TO MODERN ENERGY SOURCES, AND GENDER IN NIGERIA

ABSTRACT
This study examines the interactions among poverty, access to modern energy sources and gender in Nigeria. Descriptive statistics and logistic regression technique are used. The 2010 Nigeria Living Standard Survey data set obtained from the National Bureau of Statistics is used. The findings of the study show, among other things, that contrary to what happens in many countries of the world, both incidences of poverty and lack of access to modern energy sources are more pronounced among male-headed households than among female-headed households. The logistic regression estimates show, among other things, that poverty reduces the odds in favor of having access to modern energy sources and while female headship of household reduces the odds in favor of being in poverty, it increases the odds in favor of having access to modern energy sources. The forgoing should serve as invaluable guide to the Nigerian government and policy makers.

INTRODUCTION
A major socio-economic problem plaguing Nigeria is poverty. In recent times poverty has become pervasive in Nigeria. Associated with the poverty problem in Nigeria is the gross inadequacy in access to modern energy sources. Most Nigerian households use inferior/environmentally harmful sources of energy for cooking and lighting (National Bureau of Statistics, 2005). The use of such inferior sources of energy - like firewood, charcoal, crop residue, animal waste and sawdust - causes environmental pollution which ultimately leads to reduction in health status and productivity.
Both poverty and access to energy sources have gender dimension. Women are said to be more vulnerable to poverty than men. Despite the great role women play in nation-building, they do not receive commensurate economic reward. It is noteworthy that the great role women play in the development process is clearly ref.

2. Summary
and paraphrase this paragraph
- summarize what you think are the most important pieces of information that you gleaned from the textbook- read the book closely and put it in your own words.
The Hittites conquered and sacked Babylon around 1595 BCE. Their fortified capital at Boghazköy in Anatolia had seven-foot-tall stone lions guarding the main gateway.
LION GATE, HATTUSA The Babylonian Empire toppled in the face of an onslaught by the Hittites, an Anatolian people who conquered and sacked Babylon around 1595 BCE. They then retired to their homeland, leaving Babylon in the hands of the Kassites. Remains of the strongly fortified capital city of the Hittites still may be seen at Hattusa near modern Boghazköy, Turkey. Constructed of large blocks of heavy stone—a striking contrast to the brick architecture of Mesopotamia—the walls and towers of the Hittites effectively protected them from attack. Symbolically guarding the gateway (FIG. 2-18) to the Hattusa citadel are two huge (seven-foothigh) lions. Their simply carved forequarters project from massive stone blocks on either side of the entrance. These Hittite guardian beasts are early examples of a theme that was to be echoed on many Near Eastern gates. Notable are those of Assyria (FIG. 2-21), one of the greatest empires of the ancient world, and of the reborn Babylon (FIG. 2-24) in the first millennium BCE. But the idea of protecting a city, palace, temple, or tomb from evil by placing wild beasts or fantastic monsters before an entranceway was not unique to the Near Eastern world. Examples abound in Egypt, Greece, Italy, and elsewhere.
3. Research- go online and find additional information about the image and provide the links for that information for your peers. Make sure to summarize and do not simply cut and paste or give us just the URLs.
4. Contemporary Culture- relate the theme to something that you find in our current visual vernacular on popular culture - Why is this image relevant today?

Can someone please help me out? I had posted this paper over a week ago to have done by tonight. an individual had responded, I paid a $15 down payment and they never completed it and I can not seem to find them online any more. I am in desperate need of some help. Please help me. I can not pay anything until Thursday.
For your third Individual Project, you will be writing
an essay of 1,000 words or more about two additional poems from the assigned reading list
. Please select two works from the list of fifteen—excluding the one you already reflected on in Part A of the Phase 3 DB assignment—and answer the questions below. Again, be sure to begin your paper with an engaging introduction and clear thesis statement, develop each point in the body of your paper using examples and quotes from the poems, and conclude your paper with a restatement of your thesis and closing remarks. Also, make sure you maintain your credibility by including in-text citations and a reference list correctly formatted in APA style.
Imagery: What visual images can you identify in both poems? Comment on the details you notice about objects, places, people, colors, textures and so forth. Which of your other senses are stimulated by the poets’ descriptions?
Figures of Speech: List the specific metaphors, similes, puns and other figures of speech each poet uses and how they contribute to the poem’s overall meaning. (Remember, figurative language is not literal but rather suggestive of something else. For example, the metaphor, “Jack is a pig,” is not a reference to an actual animal with hooves but rather someone named Jack who has pig-like qualities or mannerisms.)
Symbolism: Identify the symbols you notice in each poem. What abstract concepts (e.g., love, death, truth) might the concrete objects (e.g., persons, places, things) suggest?
Language and Word Choice: Every word in a poem has been included (or left out) after much deliberation, as poets choose their words very carefully. Remark on the following in each poem: Does the poet use informal or formal language? Does he or she write in an older dialect or contemporary English? Provide examples.
Tone: What tone does each poet take (e.g., sad, humorous, sarcastic, loving, etc.) toward his or her subject matter?
Themes: What are the main messages of both poems? Give reasons for your answers.
Sound: Read both poems aloud. What do you notice about their rhythms, rhyme schemes and musicality? How does listening to the sound of a poem differ from merely reading it as words on a page?
Final Thoughts: Poetry can enlighten and/or evoke deep emotion in readers. Express the impact each of the two poems you have analyzed for this assignment had on you. What insights did you gain about life or human nature, and what feelings did each piece stir in you? Has your view of poetry changed in any way since reading and analyzing the Phase 3 poems? Explain your answer

Creative Teaching: Designing Culturally Relevant Instruction
For the Final Project, you will assume the role of a classroom teacher applying for a $10,000 Teacher Creativity Fellowship Grant. This award provides financial resources to teachers, which allows the recipient to spend time during the summer months developing an instructional experience that will be implemented and evaluated during the upcoming fall semester. This year’s grant recipients are awarded funding on the condition they develop instructional experiences and programs to support the learning of 21st century skills, specifically, creative and innovative skills.
To further prepare for your Final Project, imagine you teach in a culturally diverse school, and you recognize a need to develop more culturally relevant instructional experiences that promote creative and innovative thinking. After carefully examining the information in the request for proposal for the grant described above, you realize the funding awards are based on the clarity and details of a ten-part form submitted for evaluation. After careful deliberation, you decide to apply for the grant to finance your time and help you obtain the resources needed to develop the proposed instructional experiences. A primary component of your plan requires consideration of the culture and specific needs of each child enrolled in your class (or one of your classes) for the upcoming semester.
Writing the Final Project
Create your Final Project to meet the content and written communication expectations below. The content expectations include the ten parts of the request for proposal. If you have questions about the expectations for this assignment, use the Ask Your Instructor discussion section in the left-navigation pane of your course.

Project Reviews
Subbu Murthy
T
HE PURPOSE OF PROJECT reviews depends on the project life cycle (see
Figure 19.1). Understanding the purpose of a review is as important as the
review itself. In the early stages of the project, reviews are typically held to
assess the project impact across the portfolio of other projects, evaluate alternatives,
and make decisions to continue the project or abandon them.
In the planning stages, reviews are held to assess the project costs, schedule, and
risks. They are also held to establish the high-level scope and interfaces with other
projects and to evaluate resource allocations. The reviews in the early stage and the
planning phase play a key role in prioritizing and sequencing the project.
In the execution stage, reviews are focused on understanding the project specifica-
tions (requirements, design, etc.), assessing the progress of the project, and assessing
project quality.
Postimplementation reviews are also crucial as they serve to assess overall
performance and review the key lessons learned. They also help understand the true
causes of variance. In a majority of IT projects, poor specifications and scope creep are
the two strong determinants of cost and schedule variances.
Project reviews share four characteristics: (1) They are measurable, (2) they have
specific goals, (3) they deliver direct or indirect benefits to customers or stakeholders,
and (4) they are triggered by a specific milestone or a preestablished schedule.

CONCEPTS
Every review must have a purpose, and the purpose must be aligned to the specific
project needs. In addition to identifying the purpose of the review, some of the
fundamental aspects of a project review to consider are the frequency of the review
(weekly versus monthly or quarterly), granularity (detailed versus high level), and
whether reviews are scheduled (weekly, monthly, quarterly) or event driven (such as
completion of a project milestone). The audience for the project review depends on the
purpose of the review. Management, technical architects, developers, quality assurance
personnel, users, finance, and other functions may have to be involved, depending on
the type of review.

This document summarizes interviews with several teachers and practitioners who use the Words in Color method to teach literacy in France. It finds that Words in Color is particularly effective for those working with the most intractable literacy problems, such as illiterate adults and children struggling to learn to read. The interviews highlight how Words in Color respects how children naturally learn through exploration, keeps students engaged and motivated through its visual nature, and helps all students learn at their own pace and ability level.

This is a educational programmed for pre-kindergarten children aged 3 and 5 years. The programmed helps to develop independence and creativity by offering interesting and fun activities that are developmentally appropriate in a semi structured form. The programmed follows a routine similar to a kindergarten and the children are left in the care of a Qualified Child Care Professional and Assistant for the duration of the session
The document discusses the importance of lifelong learning. It describes how the author has always had a curious nature and enjoyed learning new things from a young age. It details some of the author's educational and career experiences that have sparked further learning. The author expresses how pursuing an MLIS degree will help achieve professional goals of providing access to resources and demonstrating that new technology need not deter access to information.
The document discusses early childhood development from birth to age 8. It emphasizes that this stage is crucial for building brain architecture and lays the foundation for future learning, behavior, and health. Caregivers play a key role by nurturing the whole child, observing their development, and supporting their growth across all developmental domains through responsive relationships and active learning experiences. The document stresses the importance of healthy, safe environments as well as two-way communication between families and care providers to support each child's unique strengths and needs.
- Early literacy skills like phonological awareness, print motivation, and vocabulary are strong predictors of reading ability later in childhood and can help prevent achievement gaps.
- Public libraries have responded to research on the importance of early literacy by providing resources to help children develop skills like print awareness and narrative skills before starting school.
- Developing these six early literacy skills through practices like reading, writing, playing and talking with children helps them become "ready to read" by kindergarten.
This document discusses language acquisition and development in young children. It covers several topics:
- The importance of language and communication for children and encouraging their language skills through listening exercises.
- Creating a language-rich environment for children through reading, storytelling, and interactions to support their linguistic development.
- The role of babbling in early language practice and development in children.
- Transitioning to preschool and the language skills children learn there like following directions and making friends.
- Reflecting on how digital technologies have influenced the way today's children think and learn requiring educators to also keep up with technology.

The document discusses the importance of relationships in early childhood education. It states that relationships are at the heart of early education programs and affect children's social skills, academic success, and brain development. When children experience emotionally supportive environments in the early years, their achievement increases. The document also discusses Maslow's hierarchy of needs and the teacher's role in helping children feel a sense of belonging and supporting diversity. It emphasizes that within families, infants and toddlers begin to develop identity and learn important life skills through relationships.

JUNIUS BASSUS SARCOPHAGUS Another pagan convert to Christianity was the city prefect of Rome, Junius Bassus, who, according to the inscription on his sarcophagus (FIG. 8-7), was baptized just before he died in 359. The sarcophagus is of eclectic format—decorated only on three sides in the western Roman manner (see Chapter 7), but divided into two registers of five compartments, each framed by columns in the tradition of Asiatic sarcophagi (FIG. 7-61). In contrast to the Santa Maria Antiqua sarcophagus (FIG. 8-6), the deceased does not appear on the body of the coffin. Instead, stories from the Old and New Testaments fill the niches. Christ has pride of place and appears in the central compartment of each register: as a teacher enthroned between his chief apostles, Saints Peter and Paul (above), and triumphantly entering Jerusalem on a donkey (below). Appropriately, the sculptor placed the scene of Christ’s heavenly triumph above that of his earthly triumph. Both compositions owe a great deal to official Roman art. In the center of the upper zone, Christ, like an enthroned Roman emperor, sits above a personification of the sky god holding a billowing mantle over his head, indicating that Christ is ruler of the universe. The scene below derives from portrayals of Roman emperors entering cities on horseback, but Christ’s steed and the absence of imperial attributes contrast sharply with the imperial models the sculptor used as compositional sources. All of the Old Testament scenes on the Junius Bassus sarcophagus are precursors of New Testament events (see “Jewish Subjects in Christian Art,” page 213). Adam and Eve, for example, are in the second niche from the left on the lower level. Their Original Sin of eating the apple in the Garden of Eden ultimately necessitated Christ’s sacrifice for the salvation of humankind. To the right of the entry into Jerusalem is Daniel, unscathed by flanking lions, saved by his faith. At the upper left, Abraham is about to sacrifice Isaac. Christians believe this Old Testament story was a prefiguration of God’s sacrifice of his own son, Jesus. The Crucifixion itself, however, does not appear on the Junius Bassus sarcophagus.

INTERACTIONS AMONG POVERTY, ACCESS TO MODERN ENERGY SOURCES, AND GENDER IN NIGERIA
Fidelis O. Ogwumike
University of Ibadan, Nigeria

University of Nigeria, Nigeria
ABSTRACT
This study examines the interactions among poverty, access to modern energy sources and gender in Nigeria. Descriptive statistics and logistic regression technique are used. The 2010 Nigeria Living Standard Survey data set obtained from the National Bureau of Statistics is used. The findings of the study show, among other things, that contrary to what happens in many countries of the world, both incidences of poverty and lack of access to modern energy sources are more pronounced among male-headed households than among female-headed households. The logistic regression estimates show, among other things, that poverty reduces the odds in favor of having access to modern energy sources and while female headship of household reduces the odds in favor of being in poverty, it increases the odds in favor of having access to modern energy sources. The forgoing should serve as invaluable guide to the Nigerian government and policy makers.

INTRODUCTION
A major socio-economic problem plaguing Nigeria is poverty. In recent times poverty has become pervasive in Nigeria. Associated with the poverty problem in Nigeria is the gross inadequacy in access to modern energy sources. Most Nigerian households use inferior/environmentally harmful sources of energy for cooking and lighting (National Bureau of Statistics, 2005). The use of such inferior sources of energy - like firewood, charcoal, crop residue, animal waste and sawdust - causes environmental pollution which ultimately leads to reduction in health status and productivity.
Both poverty and access to energy sources have gender dimension. Women are said to be more vulnerable to poverty than men. Despite the great role women play in nation-building, they do not receive commensurate economic reward. It is noteworthy that the great role women play in the development process is clearly ref.

The Hittites conquered and sacked Babylon around 1595 BCE. Their fortified capital at Boghazköy in Anatolia had seven-foot-tall stone lions guarding the main gateway.
LION GATE, HATTUSA The Babylonian Empire toppled in the face of an onslaught by the Hittites, an Anatolian people who conquered and sacked Babylon around 1595 BCE. They then retired to their homeland, leaving Babylon in the hands of the Kassites. Remains of the strongly fortified capital city of the Hittites still may be seen at Hattusa near modern Boghazköy, Turkey. Constructed of large blocks of heavy stone—a striking contrast to the brick architecture of Mesopotamia—the walls and towers of the Hittites effectively protected them from attack. Symbolically guarding the gateway (FIG. 2-18) to the Hattusa citadel are two huge (seven-foothigh) lions. Their simply carved forequarters project from massive stone blocks on either side of the entrance. These Hittite guardian beasts are early examples of a theme that was to be echoed on many Near Eastern gates. Notable are those of Assyria (FIG. 2-21), one of the greatest empires of the ancient world, and of the reborn Babylon (FIG. 2-24) in the first millennium BCE. But the idea of protecting a city, palace, temple, or tomb from evil by placing wild beasts or fantastic monsters before an entranceway was not unique to the Near Eastern world. Examples abound in Egypt, Greece, Italy, and elsewhere.

Can someone please help me out? I had posted this paper over a week ago to have done by tonight. an individual had responded, I paid a $15 down payment and they never completed it and I can not seem to find them online any more. I am in desperate need of some help. Please help me. I can not pay anything until Thursday.
For your third Individual Project, you will be writing
an essay of 1,000 words or more about two additional poems from the assigned reading list
. Please select two works from the list of fifteen—excluding the one you already reflected on in Part A of the Phase 3 DB assignment—and answer the questions below. Again, be sure to begin your paper with an engaging introduction and clear thesis statement, develop each point in the body of your paper using examples and quotes from the poems, and conclude your paper with a restatement of your thesis and closing remarks. Also, make sure you maintain your credibility by including in-text citations and a reference list correctly formatted in APA style.
Imagery: What visual images can you identify in both poems? Comment on the details you notice about objects, places, people, colors, textures and so forth. Which of your other senses are stimulated by the poets’ descriptions?
Figures of Speech: List the specific metaphors, similes, puns and other figures of speech each poet uses and how they contribute to the poem’s overall meaning. (Remember, figurative language is not literal but rather suggestive of something else. For example, the metaphor, “Jack is a pig,” is not a reference to an actual animal with hooves but rather someone named Jack who has pig-like qualities or mannerisms.)
Symbolism: Identify the symbols you notice in each poem. What abstract concepts (e.g., love, death, truth) might the concrete objects (e.g., persons, places, things) suggest?
Language and Word Choice: Every word in a poem has been included (or left out) after much deliberation, as poets choose their words very carefully. Remark on the following in each poem: Does the poet use informal or formal language? Does he or she write in an older dialect or contemporary English? Provide examples.
Tone: What tone does each poet take (e.g., sad, humorous, sarcastic, loving, etc.) toward his or her subject matter?
Themes: What are the main messages of both poems? Give reasons for your answers.
Sound: Read both poems aloud. What do you notice about their rhythms, rhyme schemes and musicality? How does listening to the sound of a poem differ from merely reading it as words on a page?
Final Thoughts: Poetry can enlighten and/or evoke deep emotion in readers. Express the impact each of the two poems you have analyzed for this assignment had on you. What insights did you gain about life or human nature, and what feelings did each piece stir in you? Has your view of poetry changed in any way since reading and analyzing the Phase 3 poems? Explain your answer

Creative Teaching: Designing Culturally Relevant Instruction
For the Final Project, you will assume the role of a classroom teacher applying for a $10,000 Teacher Creativity Fellowship Grant. This award provides financial resources to teachers, which allows the recipient to spend time during the summer months developing an instructional experience that will be implemented and evaluated during the upcoming fall semester. This year’s grant recipients are awarded funding on the condition they develop instructional experiences and programs to support the learning of 21st century skills, specifically, creative and innovative skills.
To further prepare for your Final Project, imagine you teach in a culturally diverse school, and you recognize a need to develop more culturally relevant instructional experiences that promote creative and innovative thinking. After carefully examining the information in the request for proposal for the grant described above, you realize the funding awards are based on the clarity and details of a ten-part form submitted for evaluation. After careful deliberation, you decide to apply for the grant to finance your time and help you obtain the resources needed to develop the proposed instructional experiences. A primary component of your plan requires consideration of the culture and specific needs of each child enrolled in your class (or one of your classes) for the upcoming semester.
Writing the Final Project
Create your Final Project to meet the content and written communication expectations below. The content expectations include the ten parts of the request for proposal. If you have questions about the expectations for this assignment, use the Ask Your Instructor discussion section in the left-navigation pane of your course.
Content Expectations:
Part I: Audience and Rationale (1 point): Write an overview of the class and target population, including the age range, grade and/or subject area, and other relevant attributes of the culture in which school is situated.
Part II: Outcomes (1 point): List the instructional outcomes (i.e., learning objectives) of the instructional experience including (a) Content Outcomes, (b) 21st century skills with an emphasis on creativity and innovation and the International Society for Technology in Education technology skills, and (c) cultural competencies explicitly facilitated within the planned learning experience.
Part III: Assessment (1 point): Describe how you will measure the degree to which the learners have acquired your targeted outcomes. You do not need to develop the assessments, just describe what they would be in some detail.
Part IV. Context Description (2 points): Describe the nature of the overall instructional context established by addressing (a) creativity (i.e., learners involved in making or creating something), (b) problem solving (i.e., overall activity focuses on solving a specific or ill-defin.

Project Reviews
Subbu Murthy
T
HE PURPOSE OF PROJECT reviews depends on the project life cycle (see
Figure 19.1). Understanding the purpose of a review is as important as the
review itself. In the early stages of the project, reviews are typically held to
assess the project impact across the portfolio of other projects, evaluate alternatives,
and make decisions to continue the project or abandon them.
In the planning stages, reviews are held to assess the project costs, schedule, and
risks. They are also held to establish the high-level scope and interfaces with other
projects and to evaluate resource allocations. The reviews in the early stage and the
planning phase play a key role in prioritizing and sequencing the project.
In the execution stage, reviews are focused on understanding the project specifica-
tions (requirements, design, etc.), assessing the progress of the project, and assessing
project quality.
Postimplementation reviews are also crucial as they serve to assess overall
performance and review the key lessons learned. They also help understand the true
causes of variance. In a majority of IT projects, poor specifications and scope creep are
the two strong determinants of cost and schedule variances.
Project reviews share four characteristics: (1) They are measurable, (2) they have
specific goals, (3) they deliver direct or indirect benefits to customers or stakeholders,
and (4) they are triggered by a specific milestone or a preestablished schedule.

CONCEPTS
Every review must have a purpose, and the purpose must be aligned to the specific
project needs. In addition to identifying the purpose of the review, some of the
fundamental aspects of a project review to consider are the frequency of the review
(weekly versus monthly or quarterly), granularity (detailed versus high level), and
whether reviews are scheduled (weekly, monthly, quarterly) or event driven (such as
completion of a project milestone). The audience for the project review depends on the
purpose of the review. Management, technical architects, developers, quality assurance
personnel, users, finance, and other functions may have to be involved, depending on
the type of review.
While the frequency of review and granularity of reviews depends on .

You are the assistant director of human resources. Janice Marshall has asked you to review the Code of Ethics to determine if John has violated its provisions. You are to prepare a paper that addresses the following:
1. Evaluate International Widgets' Code of Ethics at the conclusion of the You Decide scenario. Do any provisions prohibit John's behavior? Please explain.
2. In addition to a possible ethics violation, could International Widgets pursue other legal avenues against John and/or its competitor? Review your textbook and library references to assist you in answering these questions.
3. Is John in a fiduciary relationship with International Widgets? Why or why not? Is he an agent of International Widgets? Identify the duties and responsibilities of an agent and whether or not John is fulfilling those obligations. Review your textbook and library references to assist you in answering these questions.
4. What action should Gloria take involving John?
00:00
In this scenario, you will evaluate the Code of Ethics to determine if John Anderson has violated International Widgets' Code of Ethics by engaging in business with a competitor.
00:00
The human resources department worked with management to carefully craft a Code of Ethics. All employees received a copy of the code and were required to sign off stating that they had read the code and agreed to abide by its conditions. If an issue concerning an employee occurs, the human resources department investigates. As the assistant director of human resources, you are asked to evaluate an employee's behavior. You meet with Gloria Smithson to obtain all information needed to begin your investigation.
00:00
Gloria has now been in business for 2 years. Her business is called International Widgets, and she employs more than 300 people in the business headquarters. In the early stages of the business, she created a Code of Ethics to govern employees' behavior. Recently, one of her salespeople, John Anderson, seems to be underperforming. Historically, he has been a stellar employee and salesperson, bringing in new clients every month. However, over the last 6 months, not only has he not brought in any new business, but 30% of his accounts have gone to a competitor. Even with this downturn, John was on the road 5 days a week and continued to submit expense reports. Is this ethical?
00:00
Janice is the director of human resources at International Widgets. Recently, Janice met with Gloria to let her know of a rumor in the company that John was actually steering some of his accounts to a competitor because the competitor gave him a kickback.
00:00
John has been employed by International Widgets for 14 months. He likes his job but was recently approached by a competitor with an offer he could not refuse. The competitor wanted to expand his domestic market and asked John to work with him.

· Chapter 8 Chapter 8 The Preschool YearsThe preschool years

Chapter 8: The Preschool Years
The preschool years are important. Research shows us that
children who attend preschool do better in kindergarten and first
grade. However, not every state offers public preschool. And,
many schools that do offer this, offer it only to children with
special needs (and then regular education students may need to
win a lottery to get in). Although children who do not have a
special need may attend, they are usually screened and placed
on waiting lists. Also, there is typically a tuition to pay for the
child if he/she does not have a special need.
Your text introduces the idea of universal prekindergarten:
providing preschool for every child whose parents want it
(preschool for all children) on page. But, keep in mind that
universal prek doesn’t mean that your child must attend, it
simply means that it is available if you would like it. I point
this out because many people (in particular, stay at home moms)
think that this is the government’s way of not allowing them the
choice to stay home and educate their own child. Therefore,
there are parents who are against this.
In the past, socialization skills were the focus of
prekindergarten however; sad but true, today there is a decided
move away from socialization as the primary function for
enrolling children in preschool. Preschools are now promoted as
places to accomplish many more skills than just
socialization! This plays a role in my comments above about not
all parents favoring universal prek; the stress toward academic
success is definitely a concern for many.
Of course, high-quality affordable preschool can be difficult to
come by. We know that children benefit from attending high-
quality preschool, but high-quality preschool also often comes
with a high price. Thus, it can be difficult for many parents to
have the ability to send their child to preschool.
2. The children of today are different than the children of the past.
Aside from the many academic expectations the children have
placed upon them, we may need to find new and innovative
ways to teach them - making the learning environment
interesting and engaging everyday!
Physical Development
During the preschool years, children begin to "slim down" as
they have a more elongated look. Their muscle development
continues to develop and their actions become more precise.
They enjoy activities such as drawing, painting, cutting, and
coloring. They also learn more about how to take care of
themselves as they learn about hygiene - washing hands and
brushing teeth - as well as the ability to dress one's self.
Social/Emotional Development
Preschool children are in Erikson’s psychosocial development
state of initiative versus guilt. It’s important to keep this in
mind because it can be difficult to have patience with young
children! You want children to want to take initiative and try
things. Provide them with freedom and do not make them feel
bad (or “guilty”) for having motivation and willingness to try.
Children will also begin to demonstrate self-regulation during
this time as they gain the ability to control their emotions and
behaviors.
Cognitive Development
It is important to note that preschoolers are in the
preoperational stage of intellectual development. Remember:
the preoperational stage is Piaget’s second stage of
development. Characteristics of the preoperational stage are
1. children grow in their ability to use symbols, including
language
2. children are not capable of operational thinking (an operation
is a reversible mental action), which explains why Piaget named
this stage preoperational:
3. children center on one thought or idea, often to the exclusion
of the other thoughts (this also means that children focus on
3. only one attribute when looking at something. A big, red ball is
either “big” or “red).”
4. children are unable to conserve (for example, the child does
not understand that when you transfer liquid from a round
container to a square container it is actually still the same
amount of liquid)
5. children are egocentric. Be careful with this one! Although
you may already be familiar with this term and may often refer
to the children in your class as “egocentric,” try not to do this
in a negative way. Remember: the child isn’t doing this to be
selfish, he/she honestly does not realize that the
world doesn’t revolve around him/her!
Ready to Learn: Ready for School
School “ readiness” may mean various things to various types of
people. However, context clues suggest that the term simply
refers to when a person believes that a child is “ready” for
school. Here is a list of important readiness skills…
· LANGUAGE: This includes…
Receptive language: listening to the teacher and following
directions
Expressive language: demonstrated in the ability to talk fluently
and articulately with teacher and peers, the ability to express
oneself in the language of the school, and the ability to
communicate needs and ideas.
Symbolic Language: knowing the names of people, places, and
things, words for concepts, and adjectives and prepositions.
Just because you have one type of language, doesn’t mean that
you have another. There may be times in which you notice that
a child has expressive language, but not receptive language.
Today, it is quite common to have English Language Learners
(ELLs) in your classroom. If you do have a child in your class
whose first language is something other than English; do not be
upset by this. As we discussed in the previous chapter, early
childhood is a sensitive period for language learning; children
can easily pick up a second language at this time. Always
remember to speak with this child just as you would every child
4. in your class who already speaks English. But, remember your
skills of teaching language to infants and toddlers: repeat words
often, be sure to annunciate and show children when
necessary. This will assist in helping children learn English.
It is important to note that different cultures have different
values regarding the purpose of school, the process of
schooling, children’ s roles in the schooling process, and the
family’s and culture’s roles in promoting readiness. Thinking
about children and families whom you already know, you may
be able to think of some examples of this.
Daily Schedule
Your text goes into a bit of detail in regards to this topic, so I
don’t want to be redundant. However, I did want to include this
short paragraph in the notes so that you remember that a well-
structured daily routine is important. Look at the sample on
page 220. This schedule is probably very similar to a schedule
that you follow now or have followed before.
Play in Preschool Programs
We hear about play often, but why is play important? We can
easily note Froebel here who suggests that children learn and
develop through play. And there are so many things a child
learns through play! Social skills, how to interact with people
and objects, how things work, how to make sense of the world
around them: the list just goes on and on! Anita Wadley has a
terrific poem entitled "Just Playing." You can find it
here: http://anitawadley.com/Site/Poem.html
Keep in mind that although play can certainly be spontaneous,
plan for it as well. Integrate specific learning activities with
play to achieve learning outcomes. Also, provide materials that
provide cooperative play.
And there are definitely all different types of play! Carefully
review the Parten Scale of Social Participation (page 229 where
it states “Kinds of Play”) . You should be able to recognize the
types of play that you see happening amongst preschoolers. In
my opinion, you’ll hear people use the term “parallel play” the
most (whether or not they use the term appropriately!). But,
5. there are 5 other types of play that are also part of this Scale.
Along with the Parten Scale, we also learned about Functional,
Symbolic Informal/Free Play, Sociodramatic and Outdoor Play.
And in the next chapter, we move on to Kindergarten!

Chapter 9: Kindergarten Today
Today, kindergarten is very different than the kindergarten you
remember attending. You may have heard before that
kindergarten is “the new first grade.” This is because
kindergarten now has an academic focus instead of a
social/emotional one. And, many kindergartens have
transitioned from being half-day programs to full-day ones.
There is a great emphasis on reading. In the past, reading was
considered something that was taught in first grade. Today,
children are expected to know how to read upon first grade
entrance!
Kindergarten children are energetic and they continue to learn
how to regulate their emotions. Their ability to work with
others continues to grow and thus; you will see them cooperate
more often with peers (compared to younger children). Their
language development continues to be rapid and they love new
words... and BIG words! Of course, not all kindergartners enter
kindergarten with the same amount of skills and abilities.
As you (hopefully!) remember, Friedrich Froebel is an
important person to kindergarten because he is the founder. He
believed that learning could be child centered (learning could be
based on play and children’s interests). He was also the first to
advocate for a communal education for children outside of the
home.
As you read about kindergarten, you will be reminded of a
number of theorists whom we’ve already learned about. For
example, The K classroom is typically arranged to promote
interaction and cooperative learning. Which theorists have
influenced this idea?
Along with Froebel, you will also read about Margartethe
6. Schurz (who established the first K in the U.S.), Elizabeth
Peabody (K’s main promoter in the U.S.), Susan Blow (who
founded the first public school K) and Patty Smith Hill (K
should be open to innovation).
Once again, your text describes for us what children at this age
are like in the developmental areas. The Portraits of
Kindergarteners on pages 270 & 271 provide good descriptions
to explain this type of development, so please take a look at
that.
Kindergarten Entrance Age
In most states, the kindergarten entrance age the same state-
wide. However, a few states allow each school district to decide
this age (Massachusetts in one of them). Regardless of when an
area’s “cut – off” date is, we all have our own ideas about when
a child is “ready” to enter kindergarten. You may have already
noticed the other document (with this week’s notes) entitled
Education Commission of the States. Download this and look it
over – I think that you will find this interesting!
Another point of interest here is redshirting. Redshirting: Being
held out of school for a year . Keep in mind that research
studies comparing age and school effects suggest educational
intervention contributes more to children’s cognitive
competence than does maturation.
Universal Kindergarten
Just as universal preschool is on the rise, so is univeral
kindergarten. Of course, this can be difficult to implement due
to funding. However, at a time in which we have higher
academic expectations of children, a full day of school can be
quite beneficial to them. More importantly, full day
kindergarten can provide time for children to still experience
the extra curricula activities such as music and art... And of
course, recess! Children in half-day programs are expected to
learn just as much as those enrolled in full-day programs;
therefore, the extra curriculas are often cut from the half day
program.
ENVIRONMENTS FOR KINDERGARTNERS
7. Make your learning environment engaging and hands-
on. Social-learning is important in the kindergarten years and,
therefore, you want your environment to provide (and
encourage) opportunities for children to work together. Also, it
is important for you, as a teacher, to promote positive
relationships with each student in the class.
CURRICULUM IN THE KINDERGARTEN
The text goes on to discuss learning in the areas of literacy,
math, social studies, art and technology. I would like to
highlight a few points from some of these sections.
Literacy and Reading in Kindergarten
Literacy has replaced reading readiness as the main objective of
many K and primary programs. The term “literacy” refers to
theability to read, write, speak and listen.
Your text discusses the following literacy models. Please pay
particular attention to each of these:
Sight word approach (whole word): children develop a sight
vocabulary
Phonics instruction: stresses teaching letter-sound
correspondence.
Language experience approach: follows the philosophy and
suggestions inherent in progressive education philosophy. This
is child centered.
Whole language approach: this can be difficult to quickly wrap-
up. It is a philosophy that is best understood by referring to
page 249.
Shared Reading: instructing young beginners to reading, using
favorite books, rhymes, and poems. This follows a routine that
the book outlines beginning on page 288.
Balanced approach: balance between whole language methods
and phonics instruction and that meet the specific needs of
individual children.
Social Studies in Kindergarten
I typically find that, when I ask students how to incorporate
social studies into the classroom, students cannot quickly
