How Are You Today? A Celebration of Children's Emotions
How are the kids doing? Are they scared? Happy? Sad? Angry? They probably are feeling all those emotions. In good times or bad, children show a range of emotions. Use your words That's what parents and teachers often say to kids, but sometimes kids don't know the words to say. Now they will. How Are You Today? A Celebration of Children's Emotions, is a game-changing book for educators, counselors, and parents to use in their efforts to teach kids to name their feelings. Those emotion words are a hot topic in education, often referred to as social and emotional learning or SEL. Research shows that one of the greatest predictors of a child's success in school is their social and emotional health.The book has multicultural images of children and emojis on each page that capture a range of emotions from A-to-Z. There is an interactive question following the emotion that engages the children in a conversation. For example, one page shows a child sitting in a dentist chair looking up at the lamp. The text reads, "I'm feeling nervous. What makes you feel nervous?"The book is geared toward a pre-kindergarten to elementary audience, but every age will be delighted by the photographs. Children everywhere will not only relate to the images in the book but also the emojis. What a fun tool for kids that will help them become successful, healthy, articulate human beings The book includes a vocabulary list and discussion guide. Emotions included are: Athletic, Boisterous, Bored, Brave, Competitive, Eager, Excited, Fascinated, Feisty, Friendly, Grown-up, Happy, Helpful, Mischievous, Nervous, Nurturing, Playful, Quiet, Sad, Satisfied, Scared, Shy, Sick, Silly, Smart, Special, Sweet, Talented, Tense, Upset, and Zany.

This title was first published in 2001: Although 17th- and 18th-century English language theorists claimed to be correcting errors in grammar and preserving the language from corruption, this new study demonstrates how grammar served as an important cultural battlefield where social issues were contested. Author Linda C. Mitchell situates early modern linguistic discussions, long thought to be of little interest, in their larger cultural and social setting to show the startling degree to which grammar affected, and was affected by, such factors as class and gender. In her examination of the controversies that surrounded the teaching and study of grammar in this period, Mitchell looks especially at changing definitions and standardization of "grammar", how and to whom it was taught, and how grammar marked the social position of marginal groups. Her comprehensive study of the contexts in which grammar was intended or thought to function is based on her analysis of the ancillary materials - prefaces, introductions, forewords, statements of intent, organization of materials, surrounding materials, and manifestos of pedagogy, philosophy, and social or political goals - of more than 300 grammar texts of the time. The book is intended as a landmark study of an important movement in the foundation of the modern world.

This groundbreaking book explores the interactions of three powerful concepts in early childhood education: early childhood settings as sites for democracy, belonging as a human need and basis for participation, and relationships with land. Through exemplars of pioneering practice, it renews thinking about democracy and broadens understanding of belonging in culturally diverse societies. Drawing from three research projects undertaken with teachers as collaborators in eleven early childhood settings, the book showcases examples grounded in Aotearoa New Zealand's renowned bicultural curriculum, Te Whariki. It demonstrates how participatory design methodologies can reimagine the theory-practice nexus and privilege diverse voices often marginalized in traditional research settings. Woven throughout are "glimpses of hope" that illustrate new possibilities for pedagogical practice in the country's bicultural context. In a time marked by significant societal shifts and neoliberal pressures, the authors argue that layering and interweaving these three concepts enables the creation of innovative approaches to policy thinking and practice that challenge existing frameworks and advocate for public, democratic early childhood education systems. This essential resource will interest postgraduate students, researchers, teachers, student teachers, early childhood managers and policy makers. It offers valuable insights for advanced students and practitioners of early childhood education seeking to understand democratic practice and belonging in diverse cultural contexts around the globe.

The ketogenic diet is a very low-carb, high-fat and adequate-protein diet for people with certain medical conditions. It has many therapeutic benefits that come with it such as improvement in mood, energy levels, body composition, weight loss and more. Although the keto diet is not for everyone as some people may feel a little uncomfortable adapting to such a drastic change in their food intake. However, many others are eager to try it out for themselves due to its amazing benefits Keto Diet Overview The best way to break down the Keto Diet is by breaking down some terms: Carbohydrate - Any or all forms of carbohydrates that are found in foods you eat and drink on an empty stomach. Carbohydrates are broken down in your digestive tract and released into the bloodstream as glucose, also known as blood sugar. Fat - Fat is a molecule found in food that provides energy, structure, and protection to all types of cells in the body. It also transports some vitamins (A, D, E and K) throughout the body. Fats are made up of an array of fatty acids that differ in size and shape. Some examples include short and medium-chain fats (found in butter), along with long-chain fats (found in coconut oil). Protein - Proteins are made up chains of amino acids which serve as the building blocks for every cell, tissue, organ and system in the human body. They also make up your hair, skin and nails. Some key examples of protein rich foods are: chicken, eggs, salmon, beef and pork. Carbs vs. Proteins Keto Diet Carbohydrates (CHO): Nuts, legumes, whole grains and most fruits are the most common sources of CHO that consume. Foods containing CHO raise blood sugar levels the quickest and trigger insulin production which can lead to fat storage if a person consumes more CHO than they need. Keto Diet Proteins (PRO): Chicken breast, egg whites and cheese are the most common protein sources in the keto diet. PRO can be converted into glucose but at a slower rate than CHO due to their structure. Whe
Democratic Policies and Practices in Early Childhood Education
This book uses case studies of Aotearoa New Zealand policy formulation and practice to explore early childhood education and care (ECEC) as a site for democratic citizenship and social justice. Addressing fundamental questions about the purpose of education, it argues for explicit values focusing on children and childhood as a basis for ECEC policy to replace discourses of economic investment and child vulnerability that are dominant within policy goals in many countries. A commitment to democracy and equity is a good place to start. Aotearoa New Zealand is of special interest because of its world-renowned ECE curriculum, Te Whariki, which is based on principles of social justice, respect for rights and an aim to support children growing up in a democracy. The curriculum upholds Maori rights to tino rangatiratanga (absolute authority over their lives and resources). Yet, Aotearoa New Zealand’s extreme market policies and harsh labour laws during recent periods run contrary to idealsof democracy and are puzzlingly inconsistent with curriculum principles. The book starts with an analysis and critique of global trends in ECEC in countries that share capitalist mixed economies of welfare, and where competition and marketisation have become dominant principles. It then analyses ideas about children, childhood and ECEC within a framework of democracy, going back to the Athenean origins of democracy and including recent literature on meanings and traditions of democracy in education. The book uses vivid examples from researching curriculum, pedagogy and assessment practices within Aotearoa New Zealand ECEC settings and collective action to influence policy change in order to illustrate opportunities for democratic education. It concludes by examining what conditions might be needed for integrated and democratic ECEC provision in Aotearoa New Zealand, and what changes are necessary for the future. It offers a compass not a map; it points to promising directions and provides insights into issues in ECEC policy and practice that are of current global concern.

The Decommodification of Early Childhood Education and Care: Resisting Neoliberalism explores how processes of marketisation and privatisation of ECEC have impacted understandings of children, childcare, parents, and the workforce, providing concrete examples of resistance to commodification from diverse contexts.Through processes of marketisation and privatisation, neoliberal discourses have turned ECEC into a commodity whereby economic principles of competition and choice have replaced the purpose of education. The Decommodification of Early Childhood Education and Care: Resisting Neoliberalism offers new and alternative understandings of policy and practice. Written with co-authors from diverse countries, case studies vividly portray resistance to children as human capital, to the "consumentality" of parents, and to the alienation of the early childhood workforce. Ending with messages of hope, the authors discuss the demise of neoliberalism and offer new ways forward.As an international book with global messages contributing to theory, policy, and practice regarding alternatives to a neoliberal and commodified vision of ECEC, this book offers inspiration for policy makers and practitioners to develop local resistance solutions. It will also be of interest to post-graduate students, researchers, educators, and pre-service educators with an interest in critical pedagogy, ECEC policy, and ECEC practice.

Understanding the Te Whariki Approach is a much–needed source of information for those wishing to extend and consolidate their understanding of the Te Whariki approach, introducing the reader to an innovative bicultural curriculum developed for early childhood services in New Zealand. It will enable the reader to analyse the essential elements of this approach to early childhood and its relationship to quality early years practice.Providing students and practitioners with the relevant information about a key pedagogical influence on high quality early years practice in the United Kingdom, the book explores all areas of the curriculum, emphasising: strong curriculum connections to families and the wider community; a view of teaching and learning that focuses on responsive and reciprocal relationships with people, places and things; a view of curriculum content as cross-disciplinary and multi-modal; the aspirations for children to grow up as competent and confident learners and communicators, healthy in mind, body, and spirit, secure in their sense of belonging and in the knowledge that they make a valued contribution to society; a bicultural framework in which indigenous voices have a central place.Written to support the work of all those in the field of early years education and childcare, this is a vital text for students, early years and childcare practitioners, teachers, early years professionals, children’s centre professionals, lecturers, advisory teachers, head teachers and setting managers.

Nya globala kontexter innebär såväl utmaningar som möjligheter för yngre barn och människorna runt omkring dem. Klimat­förändringar, väpnade konflikter och fattigdom tecknar i kombination med ständigt framflyttade gränser inom forskning och teknik en paradoxal bild av både de hot och de möjligheter som världens barn står inför. Många nya frågor aktualiseras därmed, om de förutsättningar som yngre barn behöver för att lära och må bra.Mångfald i tidiga åldrar: interkulturellt lärande utgör ett komplement till de projekt och initiativ inom förskolan och de tidiga skolåren som ger stöd åt arbetet med yngre barn med olika kulturella och språkliga bakgrunder och deras familjer. Bokens kapitel rör sig mellan olika kontexter för att ge läsarna fler perspektiv och en bredare bild av vad mångfaldsarbete innebär. Boken redogör för internationella forskningssamarbeten och olika aspekter av internationellt arbete, och innehåller såväl teoretiska diskussioner som praktiska tillämpningar. I varje kapitel finns också diskussionsfrågor som kan skapa grund för kritisk reflektion över det som diskuterats i de olika kapitlen. Mångfald i tidiga åldrar: interkulturellt lärande vänder sig främst till studenter inom förskollärar- och lärarutbildning, och kan bidra till att skapa större medvetenhet inom bland annat kulturella, språkliga och utbildningsmässiga frågor.
