In her speech, presented before the National Americal Woman Sufferage Association in Philidelphia on July 22, 1905, Florence Kelley discusses the urgency of improving child labor laws in the United States, as well as advocating for the voting rights of American women. Kelley argues that although they do not have complete power over the child labor laws, all citizens, men and women alike, should have the power to vote, speak out, and petition against the imorality and wretchedness of this institution. Kelley begins her article by stating how many children in the United States are subjected to child labor. "We have, in this country, two million children under the age of sixteen years old who are earning their bread." (1-3) Kelley begins with strong factual information, which leads the reader to believe that what she has to say is both important and relevant.
Hannah claimed she was shocked to find out that kids approached an injured bird and picked it up because she would have gone for help first. Also, that she would want to know if the bird lives in the end. Hannah demonstrated an understanding of the story responding to questions after reading the text, as she was able to figure out the author’s purpose in writing this story which she stated was to show how caring people can help injured animals.

We continued to read “Revolting Rhymes” the story we read today was Little Red Riding Hood.

Kristof educates and moves the reader by using the technique of effecting readers so deeply through personal stories that they feel ‘obliged’ to at least keep reading and if possible, help those in need.

Unit 525- Manage inter-professional working arrangements in a young person’s setting. This unit is linked to my project- undertake a project within services for young people- New incident forms and behaviour analysis.

I was faced with a challenge immediately as the whole staff team were encouraged by the previous manager and deputy manager the best way to stop an incident/behaviour happening was to restrain the child.
Fryer, the then Secretary of state for the Labour Party to respond to the Dearing report. Fryer’s report encouraged all to embark on a process of life long learning. This report was fuelled by New Labours New deal initiative to enable people on benefits a new chance to gain employment. ‘Life long learning’ was a net for the disaffected youth, who the educational system had previously failed. The Moser Report challenged further Dearing’s and Kennedy’s report by suggesting that the disaffected youth could be a result of deficiency in the basic skills of individuals such as literacy and numeracy.

Pilgrim and McAllister come up with yet another reason for why violence is often used in literature. They write: ‘violence in literature is acceptable as a part of life because violence and brutality exist in life; and since they do, they must exist in literature, which after all is a reflection of life.’ From this perspective the use of violence in children’s literature could be explained in educational terms, namely that literature can prepare young readers for a society in which violence is at the order of the day. The use of violence can help young readers to take a stance in moral issues, and help develop more
