    Lee is a fifth grader who is in the foster care system. He has been moved through three different foster homes in two years due to his violent and disruptive behavior towards both children and adults. He is currently in a foster home with two other children (the natural born children of the foster parents). Violent or disruptive behavior is defined as any behavior that disrupts the learning or living environment, causes physical injury or harm, involves life-threatening or dangerous drug use, and/or involves intent to cause injury or damage to a person or property. Thus, Lee has been exhibiting behaviors that at school would be considered disruptive. He is likely aggressive and argumentative with other students and teachers. He is likely an Oppositional Defiant Disorder child (as many foster children are), which entails students “pushing back” at any source of authority or conflict. It is often a defense mechanism used by children who feel powerless to control their surroundings. This can create aggression, violence or even drug abuse in children and teens with this condition.…

    QuikTrip’s purpose to give people the opportunity to grow and succeed has made it a favored place not only to work, but also to shop. QuikTrip (QT) is a Tulsa-based chain of convenience stores primarily found in the Midwestern and Southern United States. The first QuikTrip was opened in 1958 in Tulsa, Oklahoma by Chester Cadieux and Burt B. Holmes. QT promotes its gasoline as "high-quality" through guaranteeing it. In 2005, QT and Chevron were the first two retailers to earn a "Top Tier" rating from various automotive manufacturers. The "Top Tier" rating exceeds the United States Environmental Protection Agency's standards for gasoline additives. (http://www.quiktrip.com, 2013) QT stores are known for a wider-than-normal selection of fountain drinks, gourmet sandwiches, and grill items. QuikTrip locations are larger than the average convenience store, offering anywhere from 6 to 29 gas pumps and a large retail space inside offering high-volume items such as branded beer, soda, cigarettes, coffee, and candy. QT’s strategy is to be the dominant convenience/gasoline retailer by taking a lower gross margin on gasoline sales than its major competitors do, but makes up for the lower margins with greater volume.

When instruction is effective teachers are aware of different learning styles along with the various methods of teaching strategies to meet the needs of the all students.

    Have you ever sat back and observed the world around you with no sound? Watching people in their natural habitats, examining their every move. Today I went to the beach and observed a group of people through non-verbal communication. Non-verbal communication is the act of communicating through wordless messages. Body language and other non-verbal cues are a larger portion of communication than most people assume.

Children also develop socially and emotionally as they interact, play, and live with others (i.e. friends, family or teachers). Cognitive, social and emotional development through play is essential for a child’s growth as well. The development of a child differs from person to person, depending on their temperament, learning style, and their parents parenting style.…

    During my first round of practicum, I went to a kindergarten classroom with around 20 to 25 students in the classroom. I went to Miller Elementary and Mrs. Schuchard was my cooperative teacher. I walked in and was immediately placed with students to work with. In the morning the students were working on their daily five and phonics. One thing that I observed that I found very interesting is that the teacher had two rug areas for meetings. When she needed to teach the children for a longer period of time, she would tell them to move over to the other area in order to make them have a brain break and then refocus. It was very interesting to see how effective just a little amount of movement was for these kindergarteners.…

    Once again, I was placed in Mrs.Metcalfe who teaches second grade at Bens Branch Elementary. Mrs.Metcalfe took attendance while the students waited patiently on the carpet. After she took attendance, she addressed that she had taken some privileges away from the students because the students did not picked up their mess after having centers and would not follow instructions that the teacher gave. She explained that centers might return for the upcoming school year if they behaved properly. After she addressed the issues of the students, she instructed everyone to go back to their desks and waited till they put their thumbs which meant that they were ready for the lesson of the day. Mrs.Metcalfe went up to the front of the class to use the projector and expected her students to follow what she was doing on their worksheets.…
