Parents and teachers use these conferences to discuss the assessment.…

The three year olds gross motor skills, which are related to active play, consisted of throwing a large ball and running at a long distance to catch it, jumping up and down, climbing up the slide and jungle gym with ease and quickly. There was constant movement with the child in all the 45 minutes that I observed her and her level of activity was very high. It was hard to catch her at moment of stillness, and even then he would be fidgeting under the table or in her seat. Her fine motor skill included, using crayons and coloring a picture, and even though most of it was scribbles(which at this age they tend to do), she was able to remain inside the coloring picture outline. At many points through the day, I caught her zipping up and down her…
When you talk about Ancient Rome, most people think about unstoppable military force, and famous emperors like Julius Caesar, but it was much more than that. Rome was a breeding ground for many ideas and creations that would effect the world for hundreds of years, and even to this day. We stand in awe wondering at how they could've accomplished buildings like the Colosseum, and the Pantheon. These buildings had similar features that were new at the time, but would continued to be used through present day. Thats why Rome's biggest impact on the world was their structural and functional architecture because of their innovation of concrete, use of arches, and creation of domes.…

Assessment techniques need to be modified to accommodate pediatric patients at different developmental stages. For infant patients, you will want to start the assessment with less invasive, quiet procedures like vitals and heart, lung, and bowel sounds. You may also want to consider performing procedures in the parent's lap for security and controlling mobility in older infants (6-12 months). Younger infants should be placed on padded exam tables. Always remember to keep the parent close and within infant's range of vision. Infants are also soothed by calming voices, warm hands, eye contact, and smiling faces.…
All practitioners need to promote children’s learning within the guidance given by the EYFS framework by offering a balance of child led and adult led based activities. Each practitioner must observe the children and plan activities which meet the individual needs and interests. They must also follow the interests of the child; asking them what they would like to do and how they may do it etc. We must also ensure that we are providing opportunities for children to lead the activity themselves, and supporting them to do this.…
The assessment explores the dynamics of a blended family, focusing on the children of the family unit. The key topics that will be explored are: family arrangement & type, statistical data; age, gender, income, education, family life cycle, ethnicity, religion, child rearing strategies, communication skills, strengths & weaknesses, stressors, the ability to cope, present problems, and self-worth. The blended family resides in a rural, Mid-Michigan town. On October 11, 2004, the couple married, creating a blended or stepfamily. The Dad is a retired/disabled veteran, and the mom is a legal assistant/financial manager for a law firm. Both members of the marriage have children from a previous relationship. Both parents are middle aged; practicing Methodist; viewed by society as middle class. Likewise, both parents have teenage daughters; the dad has a son as well.

The children are encouraged to be active participates in sports and school related activities. Moreover, the assessment concludes that the dynamics of this blended family is lacking effective communication needed to enable them to resolve differences and build trust.…
The ability and developmental levels of the students in the traditional five and four year kindergarten are diverse. Many of my five year old students were a part of the four year old kindergarten program last year and have different backgrounds in English Language Arts and in math. Students whose first year in school is this year have little to no background knowledge in the areas of Language Arts and math. Some of my four year old students have had no experience in a school setting. While other four year old, have been in daycare before attending a public school.
