Incorporating small reading allows all students participate and interact in reading out loud. The challenge of having different book assigned can have many benefits for students development, because they are able to move within reading levels as they advance their
12. Drawing from examples from the first and second episodes of the Latino Americans, describe at least three ways that Mexicans in New Mexico, California and Texas resisted Anglo domination and occupation of their lands (be sure to name specific historical figures). Mexicans resisted the Anglo domination in New Mexico, California and Texas and the occupation of their lands. In New Mexico with the initiation of the railroad system it also brought cattle ranchers that begin to take the lands away from Mexicans. Realizing they were losing their land the Mexicans fought back.
Fact Sheet: Latino children in Child Welfare. Casey Latino Leadership Group. Retrieved from https://www.nycourts.gov/ip/cwcip/Trainings/ECPCC/DMR/Latino- Disproportionality/latinoChildren.pdf According to the annual report distributed by the Adoption and Foster Care Analysis and Reporting System (AFCARS), 22% of the children in the foster care system in July 2014 were of Hispanic or Latino decent. In addition, research suggests that Latino children are typically younger than non-Latino children when they are referred to the child welfare system, which can be “concerning given that infants and young children are less likely to be reunified with their families”.
Lead-K Sets the Standard for Educational Goals Within Deaf Community As our country moves toward an all-inclusive society, where every gender, race, culture and social group is revered for its independency and uniqueness, one fraction of the nation seems to be left in the backdrop. The deaf community population makes up about 4 million of the total United States population,. The deaf community faces many challenges, but none may be greater than the access to early education and language acquisition. Many deaf children are born to hearing parents, which henceforth produce a challenge for the young child to receive the necessary skills for their success in the educational realm.
One major problem I have encounter with the Hispanic population is how they distrust their medical provider if the provider is of a different race and does not speak their language and/or understand their culture. A large number of the patient’s we see only speaks Spanish and are from low socioeconomic status, some with little reading and writing comprehension. To complicated the situation they do not share with the medical staff or physician that they cannot read or write. Not being able to communicate makes it difficult to assess pain level; it can lead to the patient taking the medication incorrectly, and makes its difficult to build a relation with the physician. In a study done on 2014, the diabetic patient health outcome was improved
There is a shift to focus on literacy over all else, even at the preschool age level, where it may not be as developmentally appropriate (Tobin et al., 2009, p.183). A relatable example of this is when the American preschool teacher at St. Timothy’s stated, “We have to explain, justify out approach more than we used to: Cutting with a scissors and playing with Play-doh teach fine motor control, which will help with holding a pen” (Tobin, 2009, p. 167) Another teacher was taking pictures of children doing activities to prove that learning was taking place (Tobin et al., 2009, p.164). This pressure to keep records and justify, was an instance that I very much related to while reading.
In the United States, Latinos adolescence have lower alcohol consumption rates compared to other minority groups. Alcohol consumption among young Latino adults has been associates with education, income, acculturation, family factors, income and peer-oriented activities. (Turner & Gil, 2002). Latino adolescence are significantly more prone to report binge alcoholism in the previous two weeks in the eighth grade than either White or African American youth, and are somewhat more inclined to do as such in the tenth grade. Latino adolescence are more probable than both African American and White youth adolescence to have consumer alcohol before operating a vehicle or have ridden with a driver who has consumer alcohol.
United states of america have been seen in the history trayectory as the prosperous land. People from all the world had immigrate to this country. They had fight for this land. Latinos had contributed to the formation of the U.S. they have the right to reside in it. They arent anymore from other country.
One of my biggest supporters are my parents. Their support and conviction about the worth of acquiring an education has shaped my beliefs, values and ambition to continue higher education and use my career in a progressive way to give back to my community. Unfortunately, not everyone had the same support system like I did. Many of my peers struggled whether to continue their education or financially support their family. This is a very dangerous reality within the Latino community that needs to be addressed and resolved immediately.
Latino, a Latino is a person of Latin-America or a person who lives in the United States. Latinos are a hispanic family or as we like to call them a close-knit group and the most important social unit. The term “familia” usually goes beyond the nuclear family. Latinos are very family oriented.
The Latino culture places high value on family and relationships as the most important units of support, which contradicts the U.S. cultural value of individualism and self-sufficiency (Garcia et al., 2005). Familism, which refers to the feelings of loyalty, reciprocity, and solidarity towards members of the family, especially elders, serves as a protective factor for immigrant families as it is associated with prosocial behavior, lack of child abuse, and psychological well-being (Altschul and Lee, 2011; Arbona et al., 2010; Caplan, 2007; Ferrari, 2002; Sabina et al., 2015). Ferrari (2002) administered a demographic questionnaire and seven scales and checklists to 150 Latino, African American, and Caucasian parents. Findings showed that fathers who held familism in low regard were more likely to use physical punishment to discipline their children than fathers who valued familism more highly.
First and foremost, been Hispanic to me signifies and defines the word family. More than any other culture we hold true to our identity, our values and above all our familia (family). Aside from this, being Hispanic also means being a part of a long and diverse culture, tradition, and pride, and being able to use this pride as an energy source to accomplish anything and everything. At the age of three me and my family illegally came to United States, and arrived disoriented and with no clue with what to do with ourselves. Our family took us in immediately even though we had not talked or seen them in years.
in practice, this strategy can also make it easier for teachers to teach reading, because with limited teaching time in the classroom teachers is not possible to test their students read one by one, and also teachers will not know which students should really be assisted in the reading skill. Partner reading is a research-based discovery that is shown to improve the fluency of reading, as well as reading comprehension for students with and without reading disabilities. So in partners reading strategy students who are very weak in reading ability can follow the stages in this strategy. Partner reading combines repeated reading, listening and peer-assisted learning strategies. Partner reading provides structured reading activity so beginner classes can participate at the same time and there is no social level that distinguishes beginner classes and some students who have previously participated in this activity.
Each fall, students, teachers, and parents come together for another academic school year, and as we watch our students grow, it quickly becomes clear that each child has their own unique way of learning about the world around them. One student might spend countless hours reading a book quietly in the corner, for example, while another looks for a reason to go outside and explore. One student begs for you to take them on a field trip to the museum again, while another wants to go and touch the museum's most prized possessions to learn more about the exhibit in front of them. During the early 1980s, educational researcher and psychologist Howard Gardner concluded what many parents suspected: not every child learns the same way.
The guardian or the parents will reinforce the students and give them punishment so the children or the students will develop themselves. Interactionist Theory . Interactionists argue that language development is both biological and social. Interactionists argue that language learning is influenced by the desire of children to communicate with others. The Interactionists argue that "children are born with a powerful brain that matures slowly and predisposes them to acquire new understandings that they are motivated to share with others" ( Bates,1993;Tomasello,1995, as cited in shaffer,et al.,2002,p.362).
