Kale Perry Personality Traits

For this case study, I observed my 11-year-old cousin. Her name is Alice Katherine Villafuerte. She is pale in skin tone and has small dark brown eyes. Her hair is very thick and straight, and has braces, and wears glasses. She lives in a two-story home and shares a room with her 8-year-old sister, Megan. The home has a big backyard where Alice and her sister often play during the day. She attends a public school. They have many toys and video games. Alice plays soccer some days after school. The mother says, “They are always playing around but they don’t clean up their mess in their room.” I chose to do this case study on Alice because she is the only one in this age range I can observe and get in contact with, including her family. She is

As children start school he learns more than reading, writing, and math. School is where they learn to give and take with children that they aren’t as familiar with. As Staff states “relating with peers according to the rules” (2011). Children learn that not everyone will have the same rules as their parents have. Especially if their mom is a stay at home mom they learn to do what another person in authority. Preschoolers play like they want they often make their own rules, as grow older they learn to play games that have rules that they need to follow (Staff 2011). And of course with growing older comes responsibility. As the child enters kindergarten and first grade it is expected that they will gain a certain amount of knowledge. Elementary school was hard for me. I struggled through it. I guess I would fit into Erikson’s theory of Industry versus Inferiority. I don’t remember how old I was when I was inferior but I do remember struggling with it. I think that personality can play in there sometimes. So far I’ve been pretty close to Erikson’s

I observed Harper, a 23 month old little girl that is full of energy. Also participating in the interaction with Harper was her mother and five year old sister, Mya. Harper is very friendly and outgoing. She is very interested “reading books” and loves to be read to. She enjoys helping her mother clean and do simple tasks. She seems to be very confident with and without her mother in her sight. Harper’s father is not actively involved in her life because he lives in another state.

Ms. Katerina Chronis stated that the father tries to talk with Theki. He asks her questions but the child does not give answers. The dad keeps asking why she doesn’t go. The child is told that she has to go where she has to go it’s your mother. She indicated that her brother is not too effective. He has said he would take things away if she the child did not go with her mother. Ms. Katerina Chronis stated that the child does not seem to care if the father takes things away (kindle, play dates). He doesn’t take away karate. The family tries to bribe the child but it doesn’t

My family: KK is hard-working procrastinator, which is very contradictory. She achieves many of her goals, but not as fast as it could’ve be done. For example, for her Gold Award in Girl Scouts, the highest award, but it took Mikayla a long time to achieve it because she believed that she had all the time in the world. However, she did learn from that experience because now Mikayla will make events and reminders on her calendar to track her progress and complete work/goals in a timely fashion. Mikayla has a caring, motherly soul because she will put feelings of others before hers, and she will protect everyone and everything that she loves. She has been inquisitive since she was able to talk, ‘Why is the sky blue? What animal is that? Why is the grass green?’ She is a determined individual who is adamant on figuring out and improving the world.

His end of the year report card illustrated him to be extremely gifted in every subject, completing accomplishments far beyond his cognitive level. Additionally, is vocabulary skills as well as his ability to formulate sentences has improved. Branson Reeve developed a massive amount of responsibility towards the beginning of his 3rd grade year. He is completing his chores and homework independently, without having to be told to. At school, he is continuing to show advancements in all areas of study. Recently, he started attending an after-school science camp, which he is very fond of. Because of his infatuation, his father and I are intent on searching for additional extra-curricular science activities. Thankfully, his phase of cheating has finally halted. The use of verbal discussion and praise has acted in the redirection of this negative behavior. Over the summer, he was occupied with neighborhood and school friends. He also adopted the hobby of training the neighbors' dogs. At the beginning of his 5th grade year, him and his sister began arguing and fighting a great deal. Many times, I was forced to interfere to cease the

June 16, 2008, my little brother was born. At the age of four I was the most infuriated young child in existence. I didn't want a sibling, I wanted to be the only child my parents cared for, I wanted to be the best. I didn't understand why I wasn't good enough for my parents why they needed another child. It's typical that siblings don't like each other. And you may be thinking Xaine and I are some miraculous exception. No human is perfect, not even heroes. Heroes aren't people who make everything perfect, they're people who make life a little bit more enjoyable for someone or many. My Michigan hero Xaine is nine and has a easygoing happy attitude towards everything that I admire very much along with his kindness, trustworthiness, and acceptance.

Regardless of their area of work, nurses have the potential to be exposed to the intimate partner violence (IPV) continuum. Often noticed as the front line workers, nurses are in a position to observe and assess situations where IPV is suspected, and intervene should these issues arise. Nurses are obligated to provide safe, holistic, quality care to victims of IPV and implement resources such as counseling, community support as well as physical and emotional support; “nurses work with persons who have health-care needs or are receiving care to enable them to attain their highest possible level of health and well-being” (CNA, 2017). Nurses have the ability to be a catalyst for positive change for individuals in abusive situations. Victims

Macbeth reveals what people will go through to get what they want even if it means becoming corrupt and cruel. Macbeth written by William Shakespeare in 1606 is a play about a man named Macbeth and his wife wanting to become king and queen of Scotland. They will do whatever it takes to get what they want even if that means murder. This is one Shakespeare’s many tragic plays. Through the murder of Macduff's kids, Shakespeare explores the immorality that power gives.

During my observation the girl demonstrated that she was able to work in a team with her brother. She was friendly and well socialized. According to Erikson’s stages of social and emotional development this kind of behavior means that the girl was on the ‘school age’ stage. It is absolutely normal to be on this stage of social and emotional development at the age of 9.

Although the the writings are about two different types of slavery at two different times, they are still very similar. Experience and Power are central themes that are similar in both Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglas and Slave Girl. However, there are opposing themes are Religion and Reasoning.

It takes a village to raise a child, meaning it takes more than just Mommy and Daddy to see that you are raised right. Well gladly enough for me, I have a large family. But there’s one person, in particular, who leads the way for all of us. My name is Blake Cohlmia and I am Lebanese. The Lebanese are an interesting group of people who don’t follow the traditional family mindset. This family will do things like teaching the kids how to drink and how to play poker but in a way to teach responsibility. Ray and Sameera are my Giddy and Sitty (Arabic for Grandmother and Grandfather). Although I’m close to both of them, I share a special connection to Giddy because of the way

The child I observed was a seven-year-old girl in Year 2 who sat on the second highest ability table in a mixed class. While not in school, she lived a substantial distance away meaning she travelled to and from school by car and was often the first child to arrive in the morning and the last to leave in the afternoon. I will focus on the social and emotional development of this child who, from now onwards, will be referred to as C.

I observed Alaina for greater than one hour while she played with a ten-year-old boy and two younger girls at a local library. The two older children were able to work together and assemble Lego blocks. Alaina was very in tune with what the boy was doing and often followed his lead. Alaina appeared to be annoyed at one point with one of the younger children who took one of her toys. At this point I reminded her that she was the older child and should just let the younger child have the toy, she complied with my directive without becoming upset. This demonstrated emotional maturity which aligns with my research which suggested that 7-year-olds will often appear far more emotionally intelligent when compared to earlier ages (Lee, 2017). We also played checkers and she appeared to be able to think strategically which aligns with Piaget’s theory of cognitive development.

The purpose of this assignment is to closely observe the development of a child through an interview and apply the theories and concept of child development in his particular cultural and educational context. I selected the child who lives in my neighborhood for the interview and began with seeking the permission from his parents. The child’s name is ‘Abdullah’ and he is seven years old. He lives with his family in Terre Haute and his family consists of parents and two sisters. Abdullah goes to Sugar Grove Elementary School in the Terre Haute city along with his two sisters and he is in grade 2. The interview was conducted at his home and I ensured his convenience. He was cooperative and provided insightful responses to the questions and he provided significant detail in the interview. I was able to track his development stages and connect it to different theories of Developmental Psychology including psychoanalytical perspectives and Piaget’s stages of development. In the following paragraphs, I will explain my observations about Abdullah’s development in the light of developmental theories with special focus on cognitive, social, linguistic, and emotional development followed by making connections between his socioeconomic and cultural background and development. Lastly, I will conclude paper by highlighting that the observations during the interview can facilitate my future practice as a teacher.
