Complex developmental disability in infancy and early childhood, sign and symptom, its treatment via therapist approaches across the child's daily life
A power point presentation on Autism Spectrum disorders I created in collaboration with a team of three other graduate students at the University of Dayton.
This is a PowerPoint Presentation that discusses how play is the most important process through which young children learn. Although toys are fun, they are also tools that can help children learn about themselves and the world around them.
This is a powerpoint, I created, with help from a Developmental Specialist named Becky Parker (M. Ed.) who is in the Early Childhood Education/Early Childhood Special Education Program at BYU-Idaho. It talks about the causes and some helpful tips for parents, teachers, and specialists who may work with these amazing people who suffer from Sensory Disorders.
Play is an important part of a child’s development. It builds fine and gross motor skills, social skills, communication skills, language, thinking and problem solving skills. In autistic children, play can be very limited. For example, a child may want to play alone, engage in repetitive play like lining up toys or moving from them from point A to point B and then back again, or play with the same thing over and over. Children can learn play skills with guidance and by structuring play.

Play is mandatory for every child, let the age of the child be 0 or 18 years.
This topic will help you to recognize the importance and types of play. Further, it also important to know about play materials that is to be used at various age group.
Play is the work of children. It consists of those activities performed for self-amusement that have behavioral, social, and psychomotor rewards. Play is an important part of the childhood development. Through play children learn about shapes, colors, cause and effect, and themselves. Besides cognitive thinking, play helps the child learn social and psychomotor skills. It is a way of communicating joy, fear , sorrow, and anxiety.
Playing is crucial in enhancing social development in children. Unstructured active play with others – including parents, siblings and peers – is a significant opportunity to cultivate social skills. Playing also provides opportunities for children to learn social interaction. While playing together, children learn to cooperate, follow the rules, develop self-control, and generally get along with other people. Play is essential to development because it contributes to the cognitive, physical, social, and emotional well-being of children and youth. Play also offers an ideal opportunity for parents to engage fully with their children.
How Play is affected in Children with DisabilitiesHemangi Narvekar
A child's disability results in a mismatch between a natural drive to play and the child's ability to play. This mismatch is as disturbing as any barrier to development. A disability, handicapping condition, or delay can affect how a child plays, the kinds of play the child engages in.

4.1 Supporting the Child's Development of Initiative
According to Erikson (1963), children progress from a sense of autonomy and independence to a stage characterized by initiative. The development of initiative typically occurs in children ages 3 to 6 years old. Children this age try to initiate all sorts of activities: new words, new combinations of words (grammar), new friendships, and new uses of art, play, and natural materials (water, sand, mud, stones, sticks, leaves, and so on) to create, to make things happen, and to see the relationship between what they do and the results of what they do. This is also called cause and effect. They also want to know why things are the way they are ("Grandpa, why don't you wear shoes at home?" "Why is my friend Maia's skin darker than mine?" "Why do flowers die?"). At this stage, children define themselves by what they can do (Harter, 2006a).
While the desire for initiative in a child is developmental, for a child to embrace initiative fully and be able to progress to the next stage, the environment in which the child lives and learns should actively support the child's sincere efforts. This is accomplished largely by significant people in the child's life engaging in important activities and behaviors and demonstrating certain behaviors. They must provide the following opportunities for the child:
Provide opportunities for discovery. Allow young children to discover the world and master basic information and knowledge about how the world works. This includes opportunities to play in water (they love to "help" with the dishes and cleaning the bathtub); help set the table; play in sand, dirt, and mud; garden; pick flowers and berries; stack stones and blocks; or blow dandelion and maple tree (helicopter) seeds.
Provide sensitive support. Provide sensitive support for the natural frustrations that occur at this age. Children often become extremely frustrated when they cannot accomplish what they set out to achieve (Wittmer & Petersen, 2010). This might be painting a picture, trying to make friends, putting a dress on a doll, dressing themselves, or setting the table. This frustration is caused by two realities: The child does not know the realistic expectations for a task or activity (exactly how high can one stack blocks; do dogs really not like their tails to be pulled?), and immature skill development—social, physical, emotional, linguistic, and cognitive. Also, children at this age often overestimate their own skills and abilities (Harter, 1999).
Encourage friendships. Provide opportunities for children to develop friends and play with peers. This can occur in many places: home, local playgrounds, early care and education centers. The best vehicle for developing friends at this age is play, which is discussed in more detail later in thi ...

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
10. What is Autism? “Autism is a brain-based disorder that involves disrupted social and communication development, along with the presence of stereotyped patterns of behaviors and interests.” (Landa & Garrett-Mayer, 2006) Autism (say: aw-tih-zum) causes kids to experience the world differently from the way most other kids do. It's hard for kids with autism to talk with other people and express themselves using words. Kids who have autism usually keep to themselves and many can't communicate without special help. –KidsHealth.org Autism is a complex developmental disability that typically appears during the first three years of life and is the result of a neurological disorder that affects the normal functioning of the brain, impacting development in the areas of social interaction and communication skills. Both children and adults with autism typically show difficulties in verbal and non-verbal communication, social interactions, and leisure or play activities. – Autism Society of America
17. Repetitive movements or posturing of body, arms, hands, or fingershttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FuWWie1DlJY
18. Social Skills of typically Developing of Children Enjoy pretending to play different characters with adults and other children Enjoy playing with children of the same age, perhaps showing and telling another child about a favorite toy Talk about interests and feelings about the past and future Sharing toys with other children Giving positive attention to others Requesting information for others about their activities Contributing to ongoing discussions among peers
19. Social Skills Development of Autistic Children Appears disinterested or unaware of other people or what’s going on around them Doesn’t know how to connect with others, play, or make friends Prefers not to be touched, held, or cuddled Doesn’t play "pretend" games, engage in group games, imitate others, or use toys in creative ways Has trouble understanding or talking about feelings Doesn’t seem to hear when others talk to him or her Doesn't share interests or achievements with others (drawings, toys)
20. How can you help? Teach students to associate different facial features with emotions. Use sorting cards to match facial expressions to emotional words, or identify the nonverbal emotional message from real photos. Rehearse skills needed for appropriate social interactions, either conversations or large group skills, individually or in small groups. The instructional focus of these initial sessions should include maintaining eye contact during conversations, learning social greetings, and maintaining social interactions. Practice newly learned skills with puppets, peers, or adults prior to having students use their new skills in an unstructured social situation, like the cafeteria or recess. Provide explicit instruction and reminders of conversation etiquette. Students need frequent reminders about their body position (e.g., too close or too far), maintaining personal space, face position and expression (e.g., looking away or inappropriate facial expression), and voice tone or pitch (e.g., bossy or condescending; inside or outside voice). -National Education Association: The puzzle of Autism
21. Activities Social stories- Helps children to learn how to play with other kids through stories Relational Activities- encourage children to reference other people’s facial expressions Board games with multiple players encourages social skills and communication skills Singing, music, and dancing Sensory integration- outdoor play sets/playgrounds, sensory bins, chase or tag games, swinging, etc. Encourage discussion with animated gestures and facial expressions Imitation and modeling -Autism.lovetoknow.com
22. Discussion This is the time to share your stories, thoughts, feelings, questions, comments, concerns, etc.
