Keeping Kids Under Wraps Children are known to cause trouble weather that is breaking things or tatling on others. When you are dealing with kids all the time you learn things about them such as their personality, hobbies and intests. You will learn fast on who will be the quiet and shy ones and who needs attention all the time and cause problems. This all comes with age. Working with a group of almost fifty to sixty kids between fourth and seventh grade can be difficult, but when you really get to know them you will quickly learn what they love to do and how to keep them out of trouble in the summer time. If it is your first day working with kids, there is no need to stress out, the first thing that you need to do is stay off electronics. If you are on your phone or any devise that will show that you are not interested and kids will pick up on that quickly. If you are on your device that just shows you are not willing to work with the kids, and you will not learn who your kids are or even what they like to do. You need face to face communication in order to know them and learn what they like to do. Making sure they know they are in a safe environment where they will be heard is extremely important because some children do not get attention at home and just feel neglected, they do not need that everywhere they go. You need to make sure they are entertained with things they may be interested in. A perfect example of this is what was a huge hit with everyone in the summer
Working with children requires us to build positive relationships with them quickly, but also in ways that are professional.
Did you know that if your child doesn't go to preschool your child is 25 percent more likely to drop out of school, 40 percent more likely to become a teen parent, and 70 percent more likely to be arrested for a violent crime? My aunt did not go to preschool therefore, she had to be held back in kindergarten twice because it was her first time being in a school environment, and so she didn’t know how to act or how to pay attention at the age 5, that’s just insane. She also became a teen parent, causing her to drop out of school at the age 17 so that she had to take care of her baby. All children should be required to go to preschool because it helps with brain development, child behavior development, and it can be cheaper (Five Surprising Facts

With different children in the class you have to make sure to keep each child’s learning to their levels. Keep researching new ways for the children to learn more information each week. Make sure to stay along licensing rules. Get trained in the fields I need so that I will know everything that I need to know for the children. Making sure to have them in a safe place so that they will feel safe there is important. Make sure to learn about the children’s families because knowing that information can help better understand the children. I will make sure to let the families always know the local school hours. Let the parents know about my program’s mission. Keeping the parents and other staff up to date on what I’m planning to do. Keeping my policies up to date such as communication with parents, curriculum, discipline and guidance, drop-off and pick-ups, emergency closings, others authorized to pick up the children, fees and payment arrangements, food and nutrition, etc. One of the most important things would just be keeping everyone up to
You need time, patience, listening skills and good communicational skills. It is important that you are aware and take into account the individual abilities, personalities and cultural needs of the children as this will vary due to every child being different and having different needs. Children have to be able to feel a level of trust with you and feel safe around you in order to develop a relationship with them, they have to know and be able to feel that they
In America, we have shifted our beliefs on participation trophies. Nowadays, everyone and anyone receives trophies and awards solely for showing up. There is a dramatic split in in our nation as to whether or not participation trophies should be given out among young children. Many argue that giving children these trophies will make them grow up to be lazy and entitled, others say children are too young for the idea that somebody is better than them. I believe that children should receive participation awards, because it teaches kids that having fun is more important than winning, at a young age, children shouldn't be taught that some of their peers are better than them, and contrary to popular belief, I don't believe that participation awards lead to lazy and entitled kids.
I agree one challenge of working with kids would be how to keep them focus on the session. As Corey, Corey, and Corey stated, “the size and duration of a group depend on the age of the members” (p 290).
Vaccinations have been around for years and recently they have been a big topic of conversation. The big decision that parents are dealing with now is, is it healthy and should they vaccinate their young children or not. Some diseases have become so common over the years that choosing not to get vaccinated is a risk to natural infection, which is a form of immunity against the diseases (Merino-2). It is not believed that any of the vaccines offered are absolutely harmless to your immune system, however, vaccinations are recommended to protect people from diseases and to help prevent having outbreaks within the society.
“If your child is vaccinated, why are you worried about them catching anything from my child?” (“Why Worry” 1) The answer to this is simple, vaccines are never 100% effective. Even vaccinated children are at risk, not just the unvaccinated. When more people opt out of vaccines they make that risk so much larger. Children should be vaccinated because the unvaccinated children could bring back deadly disease, risk exposing others, including those who are vaccinated, and the potentially fatal complications that could easily be avoided.
I currently work with the North Andover middle school as noon attendant monitoring and helping the student around dinning and playground during recess. A lot of the student likes me and they enjoy speaking to me during this period. I have had the opportunity to resolve some conflicts among the students and when it seem a bit difficult to get through to them I reach out to their teachers and we both work together to resolve the issue. In ways that does not put blame or single out individual student. I personally believe in engaging children in activities that helps then rechanneled their energy and refocus their anger and frustration on some thing more productive rather than
An open and reliable working relationship with children and young people can be demonstrated through various ways. One way can be through the adoption of the child-centred approach. This approach ensures that any interactions with the children consider factors like their age, stage of development, likes and dislikes, individual targets and goals. Basically, it helps to create a good working environment and tailored activities for effective participate and effective learning of the children. In addition, there must be emphasis on meeting the needs of the individual child or young person. Carers, planners and other can gain the trust and respect when their efforts are geared towards to the achievement of their needs. They also need to be involved
I have a problem we need to fix. The kids are always talking. They never want to hear. I can’t work, if I can’t work I fail, if I fail, I get in trouble. It’s not fair that we have to listen to them talk when teachers are talking and we can’t learn. Are we little kids or are we 14 years old?
You drop your child off at the babysitter’s house, and a couple hours later you pick them up and notice that they have bruises all over their legs, arms, etc. Your child says they fell but the bruises didn’t look like they had fell. You take matters into your own hands and confront the babysitter. They deny touching the child. So you drop them off again, pick them up and your child is complaining that the babysitter touched them in inappropriate ways. You confront them for the second time and they deny then you say “i’m having you arrested because you molested my child.” They take her to jail and press charges. After that you never see her again. This story defines child abuse and sexual abuse. The adult raped her and abused her. Her mom acted towards her child and spoke up. This is sexual abuse. Rape. This needs to put a stop to it.
