Reading aloud is an important activity for language development and cognitive skills. It exposes children to new vocabulary and ideas in an engaging manner. Research shows that reading aloud promotes early literacy and a love of reading. Children who are read to regularly are more likely to recognize letters, write their name, and count higher. Parents and teachers can both help by making reading aloud a routine, asking questions, and connecting the stories to the child's world to improve comprehension.

IntroductionWhether it’s children in American or Children in any.docxvrickens
Introduction
Whether it’s children in American or Children in any European country the more that they read and the better they are at it the better of a student they will be. With the increasing demand for college educations and technical schools to work and take care of a family, reading must be something that is stressed from almost the time of conception. The following review of the literature confirms that reading more than just at home and in small groups will benefit the community both today and tomorrow; leading to a brighter and more knowledgeable future.
Parents aren’t reading enough to their children, I know as a parent we are busy but we have to make sure that our children are being read to and learning to read fluently. This isn’t just an American issue but a worldwide thing that needs to be fixed. Burnie (2015) journal excerpt looks at the study of Tasmanian households and the children starting school is 5.3 times more likely to be developmentally vulnerable if their parents do not regularly read to them or encourage their reading. The primary concern with children whose parents don’t read to them is the disadvantage that these children start out with when it comes to development. Burnie’s provides an analysis of the importance of the parents reading to children and supporting the idea that it is encouraging children to read outside of the home will help and counteract when a parent chooses not to read. By giving the children a different platform to read will be able to help counteract the parents who aren’t reading at home.
Studies have shown that those who learn in groups typically retain information better than those who do not. Blachman (2004) says that students with reading difficulties can benefit from supplemental reading instruction provided in small groups. Blachman did a study with one child versus the next. One of the children who participated in the small groups and another who did not and the study showed that it was well worth participating in small groups.
With education being such an important part of our lives we should make sure we educated the next generation. Knowing that all children do not come from the same background, we have to try and close the gap on parent’s behalf. Fruehwirth (2019) says better-educated parents tend to invest more in their children and are better able to teach them. This allows parents to take a break from educating their children and allow the volunteers of the storybook tent to promote reading which will help the community both now and in the future. Humble and Dixon’s (2017) excerpt allows me to speak on the lack of time that some military parents may have. Dixon shows 3 main reasons that poor children struggle educationally. Not that all military parents/families are poor but are for sure spending a lot of time working that could otherwise be spent on dedicating time to the child. It allows me to speak on both my childhood and current situation on what I’d like to provide. Coming ...

Week 1
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.
Week 1 pt. 2
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!
Adult’s help children learn language primarily by talking with them. It happen when a mother coos and ba.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

1. Read Aloud
One of many strategies to promote student achievement.
Mirna Rivera/ SOE-115/ November 10, 2016
2. What is Read-Aloud?
★ Read Aloud is widely recognize as the
single most important activity that least
to language development
(Duursma,E.,Augustyn,M.,& Zuckerman,B.
June23,2008)
★ Read Aloud can be done by a teacher
reading to the students or a student
reading to the class as well, by a
parent.
3. How does Read-Aloud Help?
★ Helps with language development even before a
child can talk.
★ A great activity to stimulate learning and cognitive
skills but it also builds motivation, curiosity and
memory (Bardige,B.S., 2016)
★ Exposes children to story and print knowledge as
well to different words and ideas not often heard
in everyday conversations.
★ Gives the children opportunity to practice
listening which is a crucial skill for their success in
education.
4. Research on Read Aloud
❖ Research has shown that one in six children
who are not reading proficiently by third grade
do not graduate from high school. A rate four
times greater than that of proficient readers.
This rate is higher in children from low income
families and rural areas.
❖ Research also shows that reading aloud in an
engaging manner promotes emergent literacy
and can promote the love for reading which is
extremely important than improving specific
literacy skills (Duursma,E.,Augustyn,M.,&
Zuckerman,B. June23,2008)
5. 26%
Of Children who were read to 3 to 4 times in a week by a family member
can recognize all letters of the alphabet
Did you know :
6. Research Continued:
★ NCES reported that children who read frequently are
most likely to:
○ Count to 20, or higher than those who were not
○ Write their own name
○ Read or pretend to read (nea.org,2016)
★ Reading aloud is an entry point to discuss the diversity in
the classroom by reading book showing children that we
see and value all aspects of them-including attributes
related culture and race- which in turn is a critical step in
helping them feel welcome and connected to the
teacher. (nea.org,2016)
7. Read Aloud in a classroom
★ Introduce a fun book, read the title, author look at cover,
discuss with the students what it may be about
★ Answer questions about the story
★ During reading stop to ask questions like: What might
happen? Why did she/he do that? Etc.
★ Talk about the story during and after a reading aloud
session
★ Repeat interesting words & rhymes while reading a book
8. How parents can help to promote student achievement in Literacy?
Early parent-child relationship influences children’s
engagement in literacy activities
● Start early- reading to babies can help build bonds,
vocabulary and habits. Having a set time to read will
help the child maintain a regimen
● Get a Library Card- a library card can come in handy
because it's a way to be able to borrow books and be
able to find books that best fit the interest of the child
by age.
● Read the pictures- illustrations are visual clues that can
help build their vocabulary and emotional literacy.
● Stop/Pause while reading and ask questions this will
help with comprehension
● Make connections- reading aloud help with making
connections between what is read and the world around
them
(Kris,D.F.,October 26, n/a) www.pbs.org
9. Conclusion
Reading aloud is a great strategy to achieve effectiveness in literacy.
When parents and teachers work together they can both create
opportunities to the child to promote positive attitude towards literacy
and can help them develop a solid language and literacy skills.
