what does a mother do when she needs a lot of rest time to replenish her health, during sickness, but she also wants to see her kids have an enjoyable fun and playtime. Here are 9 activities ideas to keep kids busy when mom is sick.
Math & Science activities for families presented in a workshop from Every Child Ready to Read--customized by New Orleans Public Library, based on ECRR 2011.
Visual tools are amazing for communicating and collaborating with kids. Studies show that visuals help children across a range of factors, including reading comprehension, student achievement, thinking and learning skills, and retention of information. XPLANE parents also have lots of anecdotal evidence that visual thinking is very effective in solving behavioral and social challenges at home.
On 14 March, 2018, we held a seminar for parents on supporting their child’s emotional development
The parents who attended shared some of their own advice and tips for supporting children and their emotions

This presentation is designed for UBC's LIBR529: Services for Family and Early Literacy in the Preschool Years. It reinforces the things parents can do at home with their young children to foster school readiness skills (and to advertise storytimes!)
Storytelling is a powerful medium through which profound truths are taught, and values such as honesty, courage and generosity are instilled.
Stories music and dance have been used as educational tools for centuries in my home country Ghana.

Importance of Reading to Young Children
Language skills.
The language used by the parents to the children tend to be repetitive and limited to vocabularies which are employed daily in addressing them. Thus, when the parents or the instructors read for the children, they enable them to have access to new vocabularies different from topics which comprise of more words and phrases which they do not hear on a daily basis. It also allows to learn new languages and develop the fluency when speaking.
Children lack the reading skills and therefore, it necessary to guide them. By that, the children will be able to achieve the following skills.

Importance of Reading to Young Children
Improves cognitive abilities
Memory/Long-Term- enables a child to access stored information
Visual Processing- allows children to think in visual images
Improves concentration
Attention/Sustained- helps children stay focused
Attention/Selective- helps children ignore distractions
1. Reading exposes the child to various brain exercises. These activities provoke their brains and thus making them start thinking and understanding things from a broad point of view and develop their way of reasoning (Kalb, 2014).
2. Reading to young children on a daily basis enables them to sit still for long periods, and this will be beneficial as they join school. Usually a child is distracted easily by their surrounding.

Benefits of Reading to Young Children
It develops the child’s imagination and creativity
Helping your child to become creative opens their minds up for great possibilities
Reading is a form of entertainment.
Have one or two nights a week for reading then make up games to go along with the story
It builds strong relationship between the parent and the child.
When parent spends time by his/her child bedside reading a book, this creates a bond between the them. Building a bond can help children grow emotionally.
1. When the parents read to their children, they provoke their mind to think about the characters, the setting to understand the flow of the story. Through that, the children are able to improve the way they choose ideas and think or imagine.
2. For instance, when reading comic books they present funny events which make the children enjoy the story and even respond to questions.
3. Sitting down with you child at the end of the day to read, helps both the parent and the child unwind and relax.

Resources for Story/Music Time
Films
There are various films performed purposely targeting the children. They present funny stories, entertaining events, and music for preschoolers. The movie can be a source of stories and music times that are recited to the children.

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.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter 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.

2. You can make reading pertinent and
personal for your child by creating
“experience books.”
Experience books provide opportunities
for developing new vocabulary, building
your child’s confidence and developing
an understanding that words and
pictures together can communicate
meaning.
Reading Helps Language
Develop.
3. Pictures are Powerful!
Pictures have to power to hold your
child's attention and to introduce new
ideas. They can help your child gain a
better understanding of what is said or
what will happen in the future. Pictures
can be used to describe feelings,
demonstrate activities, define meaning
and retell experiences.
4. What is more engaging that a book
where they are the main character?
Seeing pictures of themselves and
people they know makes experience
books much more engaging. Make
your child the “star” of their own
experience books and those books are
very likley to become firm favourites.
Let them Shine!
5. Enhance Your Experiences
T E L L O T H E R S A B O U T I T
The experience book provides your
child with a visual prompt which will
help them talk about things they
have done throughout the week with
different people that they see.
M A K E A R E C O R D O F I T
Collect objects, drawings, photographs
and tickets from your experience. Let your
child talk about their understanding and
memory of your time together. You can fill
in some of the gaps but allow them to lead!
S H A R E I T
There are lots of things you can do to
stimulate your child’s imagination and
that will also provide opportunities for
language learning and development.
6. Experience books can be sturdy
and simple and be made from
construction paper, brown paper
bags, file folders or be electronic.
They may contain hand-drawn
pictures, computer graphics.
They might have photos cut and
pasted from magazines, pictures
from the internet or objects
collected on your adventures!

garden with Jacob.
We looked under a
rock.
We saw a wiggly
worm!

13. When you give your child the chance to
read or re-tell a favourite story, they are
acquiring the pre-literacy skill of
narration. Eventually, after a special day
such as a visiting Nana, your child may
tell that story –with a beginning, a
middle and an ending. He is
communicating his experiences!
Enhancing Narration
14. Use experience books to build a
personal library for your child. As you
both enjoying reading these books over
and over, your child will build memories,
language and communication skills. As
your child keeps his eyes on experience
books you build the foundation for
literacy, too.
From Language to
Literacy.
