I Think That Alexandria Is Developmentally On Track

For my middle childhood observation I chose a 10 year old female by the name of Mycah Landry. Just to give you a bit of a background, Mycah attends a magnet school and makes straight A’s. She is a very smart young girl. We will start off by comparing Mycah’s physical development to that of Berger’s in the text. As documented in the text “Unlike infants or adolescents, school-age children’s growth is slow and steady. Self-care is easy –from brushing their new adult teeth to dressing themselves, from making their own lunch to walking to school. In these middle years, children depend less on their families and do not yet need to cope with the body changes and impulses of adolescence. Muscles become steadily stronger.” From my observation I

After my observation I came to the conclusion that the subject meets the milestones and stages for the physical, cognitive, social, and emotional development. Judging from the drawing that the girl made we can assume that the girl is gifted. According to my naturalistic observation there is nothing unusual in the development of the girl. According to her age she is absolutely adequate.

As a Learning Assistant, working in Year 3, I worked closely with a seven year old girl who, for the purpose of this case study, I will call Jane. Jane was a confident and happy girl who, despite not being particularly academically gifted, always participated with class discussions and activities enthusiastically.

~Alexis’s language development is very good. She likes to tell people about things she has done, but she sometimes leaves out details. When I hear her telling stories I ask questions to help her to fill in a few details. Alexis is also fascinated with her new baby sister Ashlynn and tells everyone about her.

She is hard working and follows directions. I saw these behaviors in the way she interacted with her peers. She was kind to everyone around her yet reserved at times. Even though Emma struggled and was behind in school, she still worked very hard and did not give up because she was not at the level of her classmates. For example, when I worked with her on writing sentences from her word study, she kept using incorrect spelling and conventions. Even though I was correcting her, she did not get upset with herself and she kept trying until she got it right. Connor has an outgoing personality and made friends easily, but at times would get on his peer’s nerves. (why?) He seemed scattered brained and moved very fast at everything he did, and therefore he would make

She attends Lakemont Elementary school and will be in the 3rd grade this fall. She loves recess and lunch at school, but does not have a favorite subject. She likes to play with her toys and has lots of friends. She enjoys going to the pool with her father. She has chores, such as cleaning her room and cleaning the dishes. She was able to distinguish between the truth and a lie.

The child reported no difficulties in her school environment. She enjoys learning and has developed good friendships with other children. She experiences the adults and teachers in the school

Known for the motto, “Easy to get to, hard to leave,” Alexandria is a welcoming city full of great people and many things to do. Threw-out this paper I’m going to go threw the physiography, culture, economy, and urban hierarchical position of Alexandria, Minnesota, and hopefully give you a good taste of what the city is all about.

Julia’s parents reported that although they suspected that Julia could be stubborn at times, she never had problems in previous school years with the exception of repeating directions several times and has maintained exceptional grades until this

Around family, she is interactive and playful. With relatives, she is also interactive and talks a lot with her cousins. On the other hand, with siblings she likes to play, and usually she gets into an argument with her younger sister, Megan. Alice does not usually resolve problems on her own. “She lets time go by and when that anger or annoyance passes, she will go out and be happy again,” says her older sister, Brenda. She also stated that Alice is very introverted and has become less confident due to her having braces, and now glasses. “Self-esteem generally remains high during elementary school but becomes more realistic and nuanced as children evaluate themselves in various areas” (Berk, p. 476). Alice is usually happy and because of school, she is stressed. “I could not stress enough how much she hates school,” says Brenda. While doing homework, she is usually uninterested and barely tries her best. As if, she wants to get it over with. The signs observed concerning poor emotional adjustment is when she is called to do her homework or clean up. She begins to make “annoyed” facial expressions and does not try her

As many of her peers maintained an attitude of indifference toward their education, Sharyah, took higher level classes, maintained an outstanding work ethic, and appeared on the A/B honor roll every semester. She has a “Walk with me to success or stand back” attitude. Her maturity and no-nonsense demeanor, sets her apart from her peers, likewise, she sets a standard for them to follow. Sharyah’s enthusiasm for achievement and her natural

As can be seen from the account of the stages of cognitive and psychosexual development, the child observed the regular pattern of development in all areas. Her physical traits are completely normal so it seems that she is a well-developing, healthy child. From what she was saying and doing during the time I observed her, it might be concluded that she is even intellectually gifted. For instance, she was able to conduct a full conversation with her mother which is unusual for a child of that age.

My Beloved World by Sonia Sotomayor was an inspiring autobiography. She showed talent, dependence, and strong will throughout her life and in how she dealt with others. She shows great leadership qualities that she seems to have been born with, a knack at providing authentic leadership, and she has inspired me in my life. Throughout the book she proved over and again that she has leadership qualities and abilities, even from a young age.

The options for Beck Orr is to enroll her in gifted/honors classes that is going to challenge her academically. In addition, too challenging her, research intrinsic and extrinsic motivations at home and at school to keep her interested in wanting to progress her knowledge. Lastly, create goals that are going to keep Beck interested/motivated in learning.

The city of Alexandria was established under the rule of Alexander the Great in 332 BCE, after conquering Syria. Alexandria is famous for being called the Pearl of the Mediterranean. Since it was overthrown, Alexandria was used as a port city for buying, selling and trading products. The city was used as a port since before it was ruled by Alexander, until now. It is the second largest city in Egypt. After standards of time Alexandria became a home to many people. Alexandria is home to mainly Muslims and Christians.
