I feel this gives the children and parents a sense of trust. I get down on the child’s level when I speak to them. I believe that by doing this it makes the child feel special and welcomed in the classroom. I ALWAYS praise a child’s accomplishments. I even cheer them on when they struggle with a task.
Despite the government's continuous attempts to reduce inequalities, there is still a noticeable divide in genders. The Government have used methods such as; the equal pay act and the sex discrimination act but both methods may not have been as effective as was hoped. Gender plays an important part in health inequalities. Physical differences account for different vulnerabilities to different diseases and social differences, such as living and working conditions lead to varying health issues. Men & women also have different approaches to diet and obesity, It is expected that by 2030 up to 48% of men and 43% of women will be obese.The life expectancy for men and women are certainly unequal as in 2010 in England the life expectancy of a man is 77.2 whilst the life expectancy for a women is 81.5, whereas in Scotland it is 74.6 and 79.6 for women which is significantly lower than that of England anyway.
What do most people imagine when they hear the word “obese”? Some may simply picture it as being chubby or fat. However, being obese actually means being so overweight that it can endanger one’s health. In fact, obesity was declared an epidemic for the past decade. While some argued that it is the fault of food industries, and for some, fault of consumers, it can easily be resolved with two words: self-responsibility.
Childhood Obesity pg.1 Childhood Obesity Sociology 111 Mrs. Roberts November 16, 2011 Childhood Obesity pg.2 Historically there has always been a problem with obesity in children. Chubby babies and toddlers were more likely to survive infections and contagious diseases, and overweight children and family members were often thought to be financially secure. Today being overweight puts a child at risk for developing chronic diseases such as type II diabetes, hypertension, and high cholesterol levels. Obesity can promote degenerative joint disease which will result in painful knees, hips, feet, and back. Childhood obesity does not affect just the child, it can be stressful on an entire family (Childhood Obesity, 1998, p.1).
I also ensured that they both worked together and gave praise and encouragement whenever possible, making it an enjoyable experience. Discuss three of the above Link the activity to a current/relevant theorist: - Tina Bruce believed that children should be able to explore, investigate their own ideas through play. Identify how this planned learning experience can be developed further: - This planned learning experience could be developed further by providing the children with paper and pens or cutting from magazines and allowing them to make some dominoes for themselves, giving them satisfaction that it can be done with some adult supervision. Consultation with adults/children I consulted with my mentor as I had previously noticed that Child (I) loves doing jigsaws but I was trying to avoid bring out this activity and bring in a new experience for her. We both agreed that Child (I) enjoys working with adults and that this would work well if I also joined in on the game.
In most cases, someone who tries to cope with a painful experience manages with it differently than Bromden did. After facing over 200 electro-shock treatments, witnessing his father’s alcoholism, and becoming a skeptic of the ward and its goals, Bromden describes himself as if he had improved from all of these experiences. As the novel progresses, Bromden becomes stronger and taller to the point where ESTs did not affect him. This allows the reader to detect that Bomden is, in fact, an unreliable narrator. Why would one believe someone who has been ill from childhood and faced trauma
Explain Expectations About Own Work Role as Expressed in Relevant Standards 1-2 My expectations are to become a valuable nursery nurse, be reliable and build good relationships with children and parent carers, encouraging play whilst learning, and by having children’s best interests e.g. physical activities, encouraging climbing in a safe way, helping them to enjoy their growth in ability with lots of praise and assist in enhancing their development as a whole I hope I work as part of a team with other staff members and parent and carers in order to support the children to promote the children’s initial learning so that the children will feel confident and able to boost their self-esteem, to help them in their future, and prepare them for further education when they move onto school and into adult life. Supervising the children as this plays a big role in child protection Act and health and policy. Practitioners should always watch the children closely to prevent and reduce the severity of injury to children, as they often challenge their own abilities but are not always able to recognise the risks involved, so we need to watch children and identify any risks to minimise injury or accidents, we regularly dispose of toys that are broken, books that are torn or chewed and anything that is a danger to infants. KEEP - (the key elements of effective practice) ensure that we are all kept up to date with standards as they are reviewed on a regular basis.
It may be because he had become depressed. This is fairly common. ‘People with diabetes are 1.5 to two times as likely to have a depressive disorder compared with people who do not have diabetes.’ Stated from Encouraging effective self-management in diabetes, William H. Polonsky. However, I feel that if a more focussed, intense, education programme had been commenced at the initial stages of diagnosis, Anwar and his family may have coped better with the diabetes. As it was, Anwar was struggling with this change in lifestyle and daily job of managing the disease.
In the past 30 years, the rate of marriage for African Americans has steadily declined while the rate of incarceration for African American men has sky rocketed. With more than 25 percent of the male community incarcerated the likelihood of maintaining healthy, stable relationships is greatly reduce (Western, 2006; Hattery-Smith, p.49). This greatly influences family formations as it automatically pushes the mother to a single parent status while simultaneously raising the chances of the family falling under the poverty line significantly. Men who have been jailed find it extremely difficult to find employment once released, especially employment that pays a living wage; which is clearly demonstrated in the interviews involving Chris and Wanda (Hattery-Smith, p. 55). Incarceration rates take a direct hit to the male marriageable pool leaving no room to doubt its
According to the Centers for Disease Control, obesity rates have tripled in America's youth and adults since 1980 America needs to understand that not the only people getting larger, but so are their children. We are leading children to poor health and a poor understanding of what exercise and being active can do for you. With schools limiting PE classes and sporting budgets, exercise has been something only merely talked about rather than being practiced. Children are being diagnosed with Cardiovascular disease which is one of the leading causes of death in our nation and many other chronic diseases. Because of the significance of fast food chains in America, we feel the urge for an easy meal, Americans, in general, immediately look to the fast food nation for a quick suppression to their hunger.
