You are the president of the Parent-Teacher Association (PTA) at an urban school. At the last association meeting, many parents expressed their concern about the poor performance of their children, particularly in Mathematics, science and the English language. They felt that the school should work harder towards improving the teaching and learning of these subject. The PTA could assist but the association does not have enough funds (money) to carry out its projects for the school. you wish to speak about this problem and suggest some solutions at the forthcoming meeting.

at above we reflection about benefit of tuition classes for the children. So the tuition classes are most effectively to improve the performance of relevant subject. I will tell you about extracurricular activities, such as mathematics club, English club, and science club.
In the English club, we have a series of activities such as: 1. Reading English magazines and books, if students can read two versions of the same magazine (for example, reading Newsweek in native language and in English), this could help students to understand the content much easier. 2. Watching English films with English subtitles. For students who can't understand a film without subtitles and find themselves not listening at all when reading subtitles. If it is too difficult to watch the whole film this way, try watching the first 10 or 15 minutes of the film with subtitles in a familiar language, switch to English subtitles after that, and only switch back to subtitles in a familiar language if students get totally lost following the story of the film. 3. Reading English children's books. This is very similar to watching English children's movies, but with the added advantage of there being more illustrations than adult books, which both help students to understand the story and makes the page brighter and more motivating to read. 4. Listening to English music. Even listening to music while doing something
The child I will be observing is Miss S, and her age is 5 years old. I will be observing Miss S in the Language Development which pertains to the Oral Language. I found out from the mother Mrs. K that Miss S. has a stuttering problem when she gets excited. Miss S gets embarrassed most of the time she does it. Mrs. K her mother states that she has to stop Miss. S and tell her to slow down and take her time. Miss S when she takes her time she can talk without the stuttering but she uses 2 word sentences because she is afraid to talk and people make fun of her. The mom says the best place to observe Miss S is here at head start in the classroom, because she fills more comfortable around her teacher and her peers. Miss K the mom states that she

* Communication can be either verbal or written. Communication can also be seen by facial expressions, gesture and body language. In addition to the words, messages are transferred by the tone and quality of voice and eye contact.
`In the novel Speak, the author Laurie Halse Anderson, uses the main character, Melinda, to show how communication is very important when it comes to maintaining healthy relationships. One way Melinda shows this is by explaining that there are two sides to people, that are always contradicting each other. This idea of communication can also be represented through Melinda opening up in her artwork in school, which allows the reader to really see what she is feeling. One other reason this can be seen in when the attention is drawn to Melinda’s mouth and throat region describing how she struggles to speak up. To conclude, Melinda shows just how important communication is in maintaining healthy relationships in quite a few ways through the text.
English learners (ELs) struggle with content literacy task because the “academic language of texts is not the language of conversational speech” Vacca et al. (2014, P.77). Every content area has a specific language. ELs find it difficult because they are not familiar with the academic language in that content area. For example, an English learner in first grade might have difficulties understanding his peers in a reading group excises because of the content language but, when they go outside to play, they communicate fluently because this English learner has mastered the playground language. Teachers can make content more accessible to students by using a variety of instructional strategies or aids to assist students with English language problems in reading, writing, listening and speaking. Interactive, cooperative activities, pictures, relevant media etc. are some of the shelter instructional strategies which teachers can use to make content accessible to students (p.82).
Through the course, I learned that there are many benefits of reading books to children. Children would improve their communicative skills by talking about their favorite part of the story. Children would respect each other by taking turns. They would improve their cognitive skills by predicting the events of a story. Moreover, reading books would expand children’s vocabularies by introducing new words.

Extracurricular activities are a demention of schooling that can be negatively influenced by year-round schooling. Most students are involved in extracurricular activities during the Summer, when they have more free time. Yet, thanks to the year-round calender, children do not have the opportunities to perform these extracurricular tasks. Students should be able to enjoy themselves just as much as they should be able to get an education. Also, teachers managing extracurricular activities observed similar difficulties adapting these actvities into the year-round schedule, just
Participation in extracurricular activities is considered an important part of a pupil's scholastic life. Activities include marching band, choir, robotics, Yearbook, Yes Club, and Cheerleading.
* Use comprehension strategies to build literal and inferred meaning about key events, ideas and information in texts that they listen to, view and read by drawing on growing knowledge of context, text structures and language features (ACELY1660), (ACARA, 2012). Learning to read is essentially learning to decode and understand the words/language written in the story and to construct meanings from those words (literacy) (Nicole & Roberts, 1993). The more language the children (and adults) hear and read the more developed their vocabulary will become (Snow, Burns & Griffin, 1998, Nicole & Roberts, 1993, Anderson et al, 1985). Reading fluency is enhanced with an enlarged
Extra Curricular Activities help our students threw out all the schools by giving thema academical change or just change who they are a person if they have behavior problems they could use those classes could give them that drive to be a nicer person and have that skill of leadership that is needed in young kids like one little girl said in the document “My dream is to
The communication breakdown is caused in part by verbal communication, after the use of jargon, affected by the johari window theory, createds physical noise and when insults triggered semantic noise, and nonverbal communication, with the use of kinesics, proxemics, and paralanguage, and could have been avoided if the orthodontist had not used jargon and if both the assistant and orthodontist had practiced mindfulness during the scene.
The third issue is communication between the school and families is open and two way. The teacher expressed great concern in this area because of the lack of information that the administrators share with the teachers to relay to students and their families. Also, when information is shared with students and parents it is in too late of a notice and all the details about events are not clear to answer questions that students, parents, and staff may have.
| Cooing can begin as early as 6 weeks of age. During this time the infant child begins to explore and play with sounds by using the tongue, mouth and breath. During this time, the child is likely to form vowel like sounds before constants sounds begin to be established.
