Janisse Ray wrote the book, "Ecology of a Cracker Childhood." In the story, the author describes how she grew up, the influences that her family history, culture, and nature had on her, and how she is an individual as well as part of a whole.

In this exert, Ray describes her mothers cooking.…

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…

This environment will not only be safe, it will allow children’s curiosity to direct their learning, promote respect for things and people, and help the teacher guide the children.…
Care and education cannot be thought of as separate entities in dealing with young children (Eager to learn: Educating Our Preschoolers, 2000). For a child’s development to satisfactory, the care should provide quality cognitive stimulation, rich language environments, and the facilitation of social, emotional, and motor development. These qualities are sufficient for a child’s development and the earlier a child develops these characteristic the better it will be for a child’s learning process. Research also says adequate education for young children can occur only in the context of good physical care and of warm affective relationships (Eager to learn: Educating Our Preschoolers, 2000). Moreover, research suggests that secure attachment improves social and intellectual competence and the ability to exploit learning opportunities (Eager to learn: Educating Our Preschoolers, 2000). Learning is not about absorbing facts, but using new information and relating it to what children already know; also known as fostering prior knowledge. To accomplish all of these suggestions, children should be placed in a setting that supports the needed development.…
