...Unique Cromartie Developmental Checklist Observation Summary EDU 119-OW My observation data was collected on a 2 day observation of a young boy, by the name of Jade. This child is located in a class of 16 children, at a preschool in Rocky Point, NC. His birthday is 11/21/09, and at this present time of observation he is 4 years old. After several days of observation and according to the 4-5 year old developmental checklist, John is well above his age level in development. On day 1 of observation after arriving from breakfast, John washed his hands. After washing his hands he sat down on the carpet to wait for his teachers to join the carpet. The teacher read The Three Little Pigs. After the story, the teacher showed the children a short clip on you tube of the story, then asked the students to draw a picture of the story they had heard. John drew a picture of three pigs and 3 houses and wrote his name at the bottom. He then proceeded to retell me the story about the pigs and the wolf leaving out minor details. In retelling the story John covered some of the Language Milestones and some hand and finger skills while drawing the picture. According to the Language Milestones John was able to recall all parts of the story, not just some. He was able to speak sentences of more than 5 words, and he was able to tell a long story. By writing his name John showed hand and finger skills. He was able to print all the letters in his name. John is a very easy going child that got...

...Mr. Burr turns away from the chalk board he had been previously writing on. "Well, class is dismissed." He says as he turns back to erase the useless scribble. The first day of Alexander's first law class had just ended. Alexander scurries to gather the notebooks and textbooks he had brought to class. The first notebook had been scribbled in furiously during the class period. I'll have to buy a few more if I'm going to last the first semester thought Alexander. Getting up to leave, Alexander stumbles down the first couple stairs before realizing he forgot his coffee at his desk. Running back up to grab it, Alexander drops all his books. Picking them back up again, Alexander dropped everything as he ran down the stairs of the classroom....

...maltreatment, as the Chicago Tribune put it, should we not support and help each other? Did we have to wait until we see the black smoke in the clouds and millions of dead carcuses decay? Of course the Nazis and Adolf Hitler are responsible, for even just the thought that wiping these people off the face of the planet. But what about the ones who stood by, who published articles, hiding from reality? As Tim Holden states, “The Holocaust illustrates the consequences of prejudice, racism and stereotyping on a society. It forces us to examine the responsibilities of citizenship and confront the powerful ramifications of indifference and inaction.” Our inaction, as humans, as a nation, cost us 11 million innocent people. I guess we can now scribble in our history books that we supplied the ammunition to these...

...8 Week Treatment Plan using Expressive Group Therapy working with children who struggle with insecure attachment. What does insecure attachment look like? Attachment can be defined as “an emotional tie with another person, shown in young children by seeking closeness to the caregiver and showing distress on separation” (Myers, 1998). Early bonding experiences have a significant impact on the developing child and achieving a positive bond is essential to the child’s overall well being later in life. The relationship formed between caregiver and child acts as a template for all subsequent relationships. There are four different patterns of response that are considered to be indicative of child attachment to an adult caregiver; secure, insecure-avoidant, insecure-resistant/ambivalent or disorganized /disoriented. Theorist such as John Bowlby, Mary Ainsworth and Erik Erikson proposed that during the 1st year of life a working model is forged based on the caregiver/child relationship and lays the groundwork for future interactions. If the child is unable to form a secure attachment to his or her caregiver it can result in problems such as, relating to people, problems accepting care, problems with transitions, lack of conscience, emotional immaturity, and problems with trust and self-esteem. Children who have been severely maltreated, abandoned, raised in orphanages or placed in multiple foster homes exhibit...

...Swiss film production company she had been working with into the familiar four categories. She was still not entirely convinced that she had made the right decision a few minutes earlier on the phone, when she firmly announced to the Director of the film company that she had decided not to invest in his venture, and not to join him as a full Partner. It had been a difficult decision to make; since early childhood she had nurtured the fantasy of some day writing and directing films that would tell a dramatic story, maybe even influence lives. Working with the director of the Swiss film production company for the past eighteen months, she could not help but admit to herself that producing films in fact entailed running around to find and structure the financing, and endless arguments with distribution companies, and constantly making deals that did not stick. Even the glamour of participating in the annual rituals at the Cannes Film Festival somehow did not compensate for all the superficiality that she had discovered the film business entailed. The ringing phone interrupted her reflections. Her first thought was, “I hope it‟s not the Director calling back to change my mind!” The voice of the caller was vaguely familiar, “Katrin, this is Trevor Johnson, surely you do remember – the Dean from BSL (Business School Lausanne), you called me Dr. Johnson?

...Over the years I have developed a distaste for the spectacle of joie de vivre, the knack of knowing how to live. Not that I disapprove of all hearty enjoyment of life. A flushed sense of happiness can overtake a person anywhere, and one is no more to blame for it than the Asiatic flu or a sudden benevolent change in the weather (which is often joy's immediate cause). No, what rankles me is the stylization of this private condition into a bullying social ritual. The French, who have elevated the picnic to their highest civilized rite, are probably most responsible for promoting this smugly upbeat, flaunting style. It took the French genius for formalizing the informal to bring sticky sacramental sanctity to the baguette, wine and cheese. A pure image of sleeveless joie de vivre Sundays can also be found in Renoir's paintings. Weekend satyrs dance and wink; leisure takes on a bohemian stripe. A decent writer, Henry Miller, caught the French malady and ran back to tell us of pissoirs in the Paris streets (why this should have impressed him so, I've never figured out). But if you want a double dose of joie de vivre, you need to consult a later, hence more stylized version of the French myth of pagan happiness: those Family of Man photographs of endlessly kissing lovers, snapped by Doisneau and Boubat, not to mention Cartier-Bresson's icon of the proud tyke carrying bottles of wine. If CartierBresson and his disciples are excellent photographers for all that, it is...

Feel for Alan. 17:41: Chelsea 0-0 Sunderland Willian started off playing quite deep, but he's working his magic in the final third a bit more now and he cuts inside a challenge before rifling a shot across Vito Mannone which the Sunderland keeper is equal to. 17:39: Manager reaction- West Ham 0-1 Crystal Palace Sam Allardyce West Ham manager Sam Allardyce: "It was stupid penalty conceded by Pablo Armero for the winning goal. Setting out your plans is all very well, but you cannot make allowances for that.
