Observation Of A Young Child In Their Natural Setting.

On Wednesday, February 3, 2016 at 1500 hours I was dispatched to 119 S. Main St. for an assault in progress. Schuylkill County Communications (COUNTY) advised me it is being reported that a male is assaulting two females out in the street. COUNTY advised me that screaming and yelling can be heard in the background on the telephone.

2) I think Children have the best faith/relationship with God. God even says we should have faith like a child(Luke 18:17, Matthew 18:3). I have shared the love of God with a child, my little cousin. My cousin(Paige) doesn't have the same privilege that I do. Her mom doesn't go to church, let alone believe in God. She comes to visit in the summer, and we take her to church when she does. She loves it! My grandma takes her too when she has her. The older I get, the more we get along. She is the little sister I never had, and I can tell she looks up to me. It makes me smile knowing I have helped her find her way to God. I can only hope

“Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of thy womb a reward.

All children are different in their unique way. The goal of this assignment was to observe different children in an uninterrupted environment. Although all the children observed were the same age, they all acted differently during their observation. The differences in the way we react to different situations are what make us human. These differences can be explained through the theories that different psychologist have developed over the years. Some children react better to things like praise from a teacher or being able to be creative in the activities that they are participating in.

James Poses the idea of childhood takes on the identity of systemic cultural practices as they pertain to children's needs and maturity levels. (James 28). Thus there are many societal

What makes a child, a child goes hand in hand with the different models of childhood. Two out of the many models I chose to go in depth with are the “Sacred Child,” and “the Romantic Child.” There’s a distinction between the two models, however sharing the commonality of innocence. The Romantic Child is the idea that children should have the freedom to play, the love for childhood, to explore, and to imagine. They are bound to face some disappointment along their journey into adulthood. Theres the idea that “children see what adults can’t.” As for the Sacred Child, the child is viewed as precious and admired. So precious they are in need of protection. The idea that the children learn not to be risk takers, a sense of forgetfulness when it comes to problem solving. The

Children are a beautiful thing, they are a marvelous gift of God to us. A beautiful sign of His

The world is a dark place full of deceit, lying, and prejudice. Maintaining one's inner child is a feat within the dreadful interior of society. Sadly, majority of people are stripped of this virtuous and naive essence and left seeing the world how it truly is. Children possess the exceptional quality of remaining innocent in even the hardest of times. They are also able to continue to be immature through difficult situations.

For our child observation project, we interacted with a seven year old boy named Nolan.

We read in the Bible that God says that children are a blessing and a reward from Him (Psalms 127:1-5). We had been rejecting His gifts. At that point, we prayed and asked God to forgive us and we gave Him this area of our lives. We said, "Lord, help us to love children the way that you love children, and Lord we want to receive each one as a gift from

Subject “Chris” is a 7 year old middle class Caucasian male. Observation is taking place in the child’s home over the course of two separate afternoons. Chris is a friendly and well spoken child who is small for his age. Chris is the youngest child in his family and both observations take place while his siblings are home. In each case one or both parents are absent.

I went to the Gracepoint Church’s Fall Fest on Halloween eve. Many interactive booths were prepared for the children, such as ring toss, dance floor, fishing for rubber dolphins, bean bag toss, beading station, and face painting. I hid behind my roommate who was working at the face painting booth that night. The location was perfect because of the high chairs at the booth gave me an easy view of the families in line and the children at the face painting station. I focused this observation on one pair of siblings, whom I will refer to as Jane (5 years old) and John (6 years old). Most children were impatiently waiting in line with their parents, including Jane and John. The two children discussed profusely what painting they wanted on their

For this child observation, I decided to observe my younger brother Jacob. Jacob is 5 years old, but he insisted that I write that he is almost 6. He is also in kindergarten this year and loving every second of being a loud, rowdy boy. I suppose I am at an advantage in this observation since I have seen the numerous developments in Jacob’s life thus far.

“Just as a physical embryo needs its mother’s womb in which to grow, so the spiritual embryo needs to be protected by an external environment that is warm with love and rich in nourishment. When this is finally realized, adults will change their attitude toward children, for the image of a child as a spiritual being becoming incarnate not only stirs us but imposes upon us new responsibility.”
