    Solon was an Athenian Statesman and was known as one of the Seven Wise Men of Greece. He was born in 630 B.C. and passed away in 560 B.C. He was a noted poet who introduced a new more humane law code, ended exclusive aristocratic control of the government and substituted a system of control by the wealthy (Britannica/Solon). Solon was of noble descent but moderate means. He may have been a merchant as the tradition states and his travels and economic measures suggest. When Solon was alive in 6th century it was a troubled time for…

    Learning Environment is crucial in the academic development process. A classroom must maintain a suitable amount of learning materials at all times for students to read at any point. The average classroom should have a setup of centers to help build an encouraging demeanor to participate in. Spacing within the classroom setting is required in order for the child to truly explore the surrounding areas. The outside environment should be a learning experience also. Nature walks allow the student to explore diverse objects and sounds. If there are no drastic weather situations, a…

    Thriving Classroom

    When first starting in early childhood the perfect classroom environment can easily be mistaken for a perfect quiet controlled one. The truth is one that is controlled only in small proportions by the adult and dictated by the children can prove to be a much more thriving and conducive environment. When working in a preschool room variety and observation is one of the top two ingredients for a successful room among many others. When preschool is mentioned the age group that is ideal for this is a multi-age from 2.5 to 5 years old. As Dr. Montessori expresses that this allows children to mentor and learn from different ages of development (Jaruszewicz, 2013). The other ideals for a thriving classroom come from different curriculums and theories. The theories I will explore will be intertwining the classic Montessori methods and Reggio Emilia method with the more modern methods and principles of creative curriculum.…

    Eileen Kennedy-Moore once wrote, “The path of development is a journey of discovery that is clear only in retrospect, and it’s rarely a straight line.” Although the development to which she is reffering may not be specific, the complexity and sometimes unpredicable nature of children may definitely be summarized by this short quote. As humans, we begin as tiny beings with barely any ability, but, as we grow, we develop into creatures of play and imagination, of right and wrong decisions, and of motivation for the tasks we face in our day-to-day lives. As an Early Childhood Education student, I often have the opportunity to volunteer and to observe a variety of organzations, classrooms, and programs. For this particular class, I was able to analyze a classroom-like environment at the YMCA for children of all ages, and I compared these observations with the appropraite topics of this course.…

    Moss, Joyce and George Wilson. “Overview: ‘The Necklace’.” Literature and Its Times: Profiles of 300 Notable Literary Works and the Historical Events that Influenced Them. Vol. 2: Civil Wars to Frontier Societies (1800-1880s). Joyce Moss’ “Overview: ‘The Necklace’” is a brief article and it tells the story of the Parisian life in the 1800s. The article describes the life of the society and the limitation on women’s lives during the time “The Necklace” by de Maupassant was written. Moss’ article analyzes de Maupassant’s views of women and their place in society at that time. Most importantly, Moss emphasized on how Parisian society treated and bordered women from men - not giving women rights nor acknowledging them. According to Moss, in the 1800s “men recognize only one right in women: the right to please.” This statement shows Moss’s views on how men viewed women as property, lower-situated than themselves and unequal members of the Parisian society at that time. The key concept of the article is the connection between women and their social status; this is being accomplished by bringing the importance of jewelry in women’s life; jewelry as a symbol and sign of social and financial status. Women in that era sought jewelry as a way to classify their status to the public. The reader is told that women followed a certain trend, which in other terms meant finding a husband who was wealthy. Moss writes: “jewels were a widespread symbol...by a diamond necklace.” By this, Moss explains that bourgeois status was upheld if a woman owned a diamond necklace. Even though women were devalued in this era, a social status amongst society and other families of wealth could be reached once the woman found a man to provide for her and buy her expensive clothing and jewelry which could be afforded only by the wealthy; thus – securing a certain social status for…

    I had the opportunity to observe at the Isabel Patterson Child Development Center in Long Beach. It was my first time observing in this center so I had to be there before my observation time, which was at 2:30pm. Once, I entered the building the atmosphere was welcoming and enjoyable. The children I observed where around the ages of three to five. During my observation there was twenty-eight children and five teachers present. The building was all wooden on the inside and at the entrance there was a welcome wall colored with a rainbow. There were art projects hanged on the walls as well as learning material. On the sides of the of the building shelves were organized with labels so that the children would know where to put back the material.…
