Recent nanny reviews in Los Angeles, CA

Aricelda G.

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Ari. She was our NCS for our daughter who was born 6 weeks premature. She was with us since the day our daughter arrived home and has been an invaluable member of our family unit. She was there for each step of motherhood – from baby basics, feeding,breastfeeding/pumping, everything – and was always attuned to the emotional aspects of new motherhood as well as the logistical parts. She always had recommendations and experiences that she shared with us as challenges arose. And when my mother passed from cancer while she was working for us, she was incredibly helpful, kind and understanding, giving us the flexibility we needed to get through it. She’s 100% trustworthy, punctual, a great communicator, and an incredibly positive, happy presence. She’s wonderful, sweet, happy and unflappable with our daughter, and has taught us so many tips for taking care of her. As a result, our daughter is thriving and catching up on all her milestones!…

– Logan B.

Renee L.

Renee nannied our daughter for 6 months, from age 10m. Beyond being easygoing and superb at all the basics of trustworthy care-giving, she is more than a nanny – she taught our daughter skills (basic sign language, self feeding, sensory development), improved her socialization, took her for longwalks and playground days, no screens, plentiful music – their time together was not only safe and comfortable, but productive and enriching. She kept in great communication with us, regarding things like scheduling, naps, and feeding, sending us pictures and videos throughout the day, and gently guiding us too. Renee has her own wonderful daughter a few years older than ours, so has great parenting experience personally, in addition to her professional credentials. We sadly have circumstances making it difficult for us to continue with an in-home nanny as both our jobs became work from home, but Renee is incomparable, and was incredibly flexible with our needs even as we all had to share space.

– Seif H.

Vanessa A.

I would highly recommend Vanessa. She has helped me so much. Vanessa helped me understand and educated me about my baby’s development. She expressed the importance of tummy time, swaddling, and helped me with a sleeping schedule. She was a big help with my toddler as well, she taught me how topositively interact by reading, playing, and trips to the park….

– Valerie A.

Monica B.

We hired Monica to care for our twin newborns after we started working again. We weren’t sure if one person could handle two at the same time, but Monica is amazing! It’s been a few months now and we couldn’t be happier! She’s punctual, responsible, and patient with the girls. Our twins are preemiebabies and had feeding issues, and Monica understood our concerns and is able to give them the attention and care they need. Monica doesn’t just take care of our babies physical needs (diaper changing, feeding, etc.) she also attends to their emotional and mental needs as well (reading, playing, singing, etc). She has also been a great communicator with us and always shares her insights with us on how the girls are doing and what to expect as they develop and grow. We appreciate her very much. Would definitely recommend!…

Career Nanny Available In August Or September!

Description:

I’m Renee, an LMU alumni with over 10 years of experience nannying for children of all ages. I’ll be available starting Aug 8th.
I truly love working with infants and prefer to begin when they’re young. Thisgives me the opportunity to form a bond with them and help them reach new milestones on their journey into toddlerhood!
I believe in respect for everyone and this includes babies. They’re capable of so much and I’m there to help guide them as they learn how to navigate this world!
I can help with sleep-training, BLW, creating a routine and documenting our adventures everyday through a baby tracking app. There will be plenty of music, reading, tummy time/gross motor development, walks to the park, or drives to the beach, museums, or baby classes.
I prefer to nanny at my home, I have a good setup already and tons of supplies. I set up my space with my daughter in mind so it’s very baby/child friendly (she’ll be in school FT while I’m nannying). My rate is lower with this in mind….

Our candidate pool includes experienced caregivers looking to pick up extra hours, former camp counselors who can keep kids busy for hours on end, and college students seeking an after-school position that fits with their class schedule. The background, experience, and personality of each nanny is unique but they all embody the qualities that to us, are most important – loyalty, honesty, dependability, and a true love of working with children.

Duties

Part-time nannies responsibilities vary depending on the household, but often include full care of the children (bathing, dressing, feeding), engaging in creative play, driving the children to and from school and extra-curricular activities, assisting with homework, light tidying related to the children’s activities, and making simple, healthy meals and snacks for the children.

Schedules

Part-time nannies generally work between 20-25 hours per week. Schedules vary depending on the families needs but often include working either mornings or afternoons, assisting the family a couple full days per week, working weekends, or providing after-school care. Due to the nature of part-time work, your caregiver is likely fitting her work schedule around other jobs or classes. It is important that you have a pre-determined set schedule as flexibility with part-time nannies is limited.  

Rates

We will work closely with you to develop a competitive compensation package based upon your family’s needs. Rates for part-time nannies vary greatly depending on the nanny’s experience, the position duties, preferred schedule, and the level of travel and flexibility required in the role. Current rates for part-time nannies are between $30-$40 per hour. In addition to their wages most part-time nannies receive the following benefits: paid vacation and paid holidays/sick days. 

Westside Nannies represents professional nannies who are experienced, trained, reliable, and proactive. We require our candidates to have at least 3 years of of professional childcare experience along with impeccable references.

Due-dilligence is at the heart of our placement process and safety is our #1 priority. Our trained recruiters are experts at digging into a candidate’s background and thoroughly analyzing their work history and references. We look for top-notch candidates who leave an overwhelmingly positive and lasting impression.

In our industry, experience and education can be represented in many different forms; from formal degrees to 30+ years of experience. We represent nannies who simply have a passion for working with children, and many have proven their desire to work in childcare through their academics.

For our nannies, childcare isn’t just a “job” – it’s a labor of love. Most of our candidates began their careers as neighborhood babysitters and camp counselors in high-school, pre-school teachers or part-time nannies in college, and are now professional nannies. Our nannies love their jobs, and we think that’s pretty cool.

Whether it’s texting you a picture of your little one at the park or setting up a Skype session to say goodnight to your child when you are out of town, Westside Nannies candidates are forward-thinking, aware, and tech savvy.

We believe that a nanny’s moral and ethical character is just as important as what’s on her resume. Nannies are more than just caregivers – they are mentors and role models, and a direct reflection of your family’s values. We place an emphasis on recruiting candidates who display character traits such as loyalty, dependability, honesty, and respect.

Lauren R.

“Thank you for placing Stephanie with us! She has been absolutely amazing and I don’t know how we ever managed without her. The girls love her and not a day goes by without Stephanie planning a fun art project or an exciting outing. She also jumps in to help me with dinner and organizing – a true gem. We’re referring everyone to you! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!”

Heidi

“I couldn’t be more pleased with the service that Westside Nannies provides. From their prompt initial response to working with their staff to find the ideal nanny for our 2-year-old son…it was all such a pleasure! When Brooke walked in, my son, who normally doesn’t get excited about mama leaving, couldn’t stop saying “bye mom, bye dad” and waving at us. She even put him to sleep the first day and I honestly didn’t think that could happen – simply amazing! I recommend Westside Nannies to everyone with kids!”

Jesse DeSanti

“Westside Nannies has some of the most professional and highly qualified nannies I have ever seen. They are organized. sensitive to employers and a joy to work with! I refer to them all the time and use thir services myself.”

LEARN ABOUT OUR UNIQUE PROCESS

“When I was pregnant one of my constant worries was about making the right choice on childcare. From my first conversation with Ryan Jordan, I knew I was speaking with an expert: she was strong, confident, positive and warm (a powerful combo!) We wanted a professional with a sense of humor, a positive attitude and knowledge of early childhood development. After a home visit, Ryan sent us three amazing candidates who fit the bill, and we hired the first one!! We got everything we wanted and frankly, so much more!

I go to work each week knowing we have someone who is not only taking care of our daughter’s basic needs but also teaching her — with love — and helping her grow into a pretty amazing kid. Parents, Kiddo and Nanny…we are team, a unit, a family. Thank you Educated Nannies for bringing us all together!”

We also conduct thorough interviews with our families, to ensure our nannies are connected with families that embrace their individuality and skill set.

Become a SmartSitter

Step 1 | Application

Get to know how we work and fill out our online application so we can get to know you in return. We consider candidates on the following criteria:

  • Experience and educational background

  • Passion for working with children

  • Communication skills

  • Problem solving skills

  • Emotional intelligence

Those few candidates with exceptional applications are contacted to set up an interview with a Recruitment Specialist. Walk through childcare experience, discuss and evaluate core values, and discuss your ideal job expectations and current open positions with a job expert.

After a successful interview, we reach out to at least three childcare-related references. Transcripts of these conversations are kept on file for families to review. Only candidates with stellar references move forward in our process – and Smart Sitters love that these transcripts mean they no longer have to inconvenience their references when interviewing for new positions.

    A nanny in Manhattan, NY pays an average of $33,131 per year.


    2. Is $5 an hour an acceptable fee for childcare?

    It all depends on your situation and where you live.

    However, the answer is no because it is less than the minimum wage, which is unacceptable if they are not family members. Babysitting costs an average of $12 an hour.

    4. Why are there more women than men among nannies?

    Of course, there are good reasons to hire female nannies.

    Women often have more experience in this field than men because they are in higher demand.

    The first possible explanation is that parents trust the girl to take care of their children more than the boy.

    The second argument is that since babysitting is considered a women’s job, boys are reluctant to do it, and there are few women football players.


    5. Have you ever hired a nanny and regretted it?

    Without the need for in-depth evaluation, a mother may miss red signals and regret hiring someone to look after her children.

    Parents may have different experiences of regretting having children and not having time to take care of them.

    Everyone is unique and people regret hiring a nanny for a variety of reasons. Parents may wish they had the same amount of time, money or opportunity before starting a family.

    An affair with a nanny: How strong Hollywood marriages fell apart | StarHit.

    Ben Affleck is not the first Hollywood star to have an affair with her children’s nanny. But his story promises to be the most scandalous of all.

    The happy marriage of one of the most beautiful Hollywood couples lasted 10 years

    Photo: Getty

    Ben followed his wife, Jennifer Garner, and children through the Atlanta fair, waiting for her to get tired of digging through August’s agricultural gifts. The family temporarily moved to the capital of the state of Georgia – both Ben and Jen began filming there. The couple were not happy with such a coincidence, but tried not to injure their two daughters and son with manifestations of a family conflict. They continued to wear rings, although every evening, after putting the children to bed, Jen left her husband to spend the night in a hotel. Noticing the paparazzi, Ben managed a smile. Photographers have not given them a pass for several months. Jen had told her husband to keep his face simple, and Ben was in no position to argue. Much depended on whether Jen would agree in the event of a trial to confirm that his relationship with former nanny Kristin Uzunyan did not go beyond flirting. He did not believe that during a divorce, his wife would decide to take his children away from him, but just in case, he tried to please her in everything. And in the evenings, he had to talk on the phone with Christine, who remained in Los Angeles, in order to persuade her not to wash dirty linen in public …

    Bahama Adventure

    Christine showed up at Affleck and Garner’s house this spring. Relations between the spouses by that time had reached the stage of “trial separation”. Ben even moved out, though not far away – to a guest house. Until June, Jennifer had no complaints about the new nanny. But in June, when Garner left for the shoot, disturbing rumors began to reach her. “She was reported that Ben and Chris are spending more and more time together without children,” friends of the actress say. Ben and Jen were going to fly to the Bahamas with their children on June 20, accompanied by two nannies. But everything didn’t go according to plan. Jen had to take care of her sick mother, and she reached the resort only five days later. She immediately noticed that Christine was in an “overly emotional” frame of mind. The nanny explained this by parting with her fiancé, but Jennifer decided that in this state, Christine should stay away from her children, and asked her to leave. Ben, who was flying to Las Vegas for a poker tournament, offered to give Christine a ride in a private jet. You can imagine Jen’s fury when she found out that the nanny followed her husband to Vegas and spent three days with him! Returning from the islands, she fired the nanny, asked her husband to vacate the guest house and filed for divorce.

    Affleck does not spare money for gifts for the nanny – Christine drives a Lexus Convertible for $ 43,000

    If you love – keep quiet

    Ben moved to the Bel Air Hotel, where on July 17 he was caught with Christine. According to Chris’s acquaintances, this is not the first time she secretly met with Ben: “She is head over heels in love with him and believes that he will marry her as soon as he divorces Jen.” Ben provided Kristin with a large sum of money. A hotel room costs $1,500 per night. Bills from the restaurant and spa run $300 a day. Ben denies paying for luxuries, but how else can an unemployed nanny afford such a lifestyle? The trouble is that these measures are temporary. The magazines have already flooded Christine with offers. She still refuses to share the intimate details of the relationship with Ben, but she is happy to pose in a bikini. Apparently, she will speak when she realizes that the father of three children does not feel any love for her. Moreover, Kristin threatened to sue Jennifer Garner for unjustified dismissal if Ben did not keep his “promises” given to her. And his plans to marry a nanny greedy for fame and money are definitely not included.

    THE SAME RAKE

    Now in Hollywood, the star’s affair with the nanny is called “Give Affleck. ” But this surname can be replaced by others

    The scandal between Robin Williams and his first wife led to a divorce

    Photo: Getty

    In 1988, model Valeria Velardi – the first wife of Robin Williams – filed for divorce after accusing her beloved husband of having a sexual relationship with their son’s nanny Marsha Garces. Apparently, this is exactly what the actor was striving for, because already in April of next year, the comedian played a gorgeous wedding with Marsha. The nanny was married to Williams for 21 years and bore him two children.

    Ethan tried to save his marriage to Uma Thurman, but to no avail

    Photo: Getty

    In 2003, Uma Thurman kicked ‘s husband Ethan Hawke out of the house when she found out about his feelings for nanny Ryan Shohuze. True, the actor himself claims that his relationship with Ryan began after she quit, and the marriage with Uma fell apart for reasons beyond her control. In 2008, Ethan married Ryan and is still happy with her.

    Jude and Sienna kept friendly relations

    Photo: Getty

    In 2005, Jude Law cheated on his fiancee Sienna Miller with the nanny of his children from his first marriage. He had the courage to confess his wrongdoing and publicly apologize for it. Nanny Daisy Wright quickly found a replacement, but Sienna never became the wife of one of Hollywood’s first handsome men.

    Divorce from her husband will cost Gwen Stefani a tidy sum

    Photo: Getty

    August 3, 2015 Gwen Stefani announced that she broke up with her husband Gavin Rossdale . The reason is his connection with the nanny, whom Gwen adored and spoiled like a little sister. The dismissed nanny left in disgrace back to the province, and Gavin, as a consolation, will receive a significant part of the fortune of his wife, who is twice as rich as him.

4 week old baby development: Your baby’s feeding, sleeping, cognitive and physical development explained! | Baby

Your 4-week-old baby has been in your life for almost one month and by now, you’ve probably begun to notice your baby reaching development milestones already as you start to get the hang of this whole parenting business. If you still have a lot of questions, don’t worry – it’s completely normal – we’re here to tell you what you can expect from their week-by-week development when your baby is in their fourth week.

4-week-old baby physical development

By the four-week mark, your baby will start growing one inch per month and gaining 140-200 grams a week.

Their hearing is also fully developed after one month, which means they will begin to listen for the source of sounds and notice when you’re making loud noises around the room. With somewhat stronger neck muscles, they should start lifting their head briefly when they lie on their stomach and even turn it from side to side! You can encourage this with some tummy time.

Now they’re past the three-week-old baby mark, their vision should be improving, as is their ability to focus. However, it takes a lot of effort to do this, so they may look cross-eyed at some points. To help this, hold something in front of their face and move it from side to side slowly, they should start to try and follow it.

4-week-old cognitive development

By now, your baby is starting to notice all the new things going on around them- including their hands and feet. Since they don’t understand that they are a different person from you, they are unlikely to know exactly what their hands or feet are, but soon they will be able to coordinate a bit better.

As well as being able to recognise sounds they heard in the womb – including the theme tune to your favourite TV show- they may also be able to recognise familiar faces now. It’s a great idea to hold up a mirror in front of them to make funny faces, then they can even start to recognise themselves. Don’t be too upset if they don’t recognise you though, as their memory is still only just developing properly.

Continue having conversations with your baby and allowing them to focus on your face and watch your facial movements. They should start copying them and even reaching out to your face soon enough. Around 4 weeks, they start to get excited as they recognise you and your partner, or family members. Just from observing you and listening to your voices, this will make every difference in their social development. They show excitement through widening their eyes and making noises in response to your actions but you’ll have to wait a little while until their first baby smile.

4-week-old baby sleep

Your baby will be sleeping up to 18 hours a day for at least the first two months, of course, this will be throughout the day, not just when you want some shut-eye! You may be starting to feel the effects of new mum exhaustion at this point until baby starts sleeping through the night.

One great piece of advice is to perfect swaddling if you haven’t already, as it creates the womb feeling they were so used to before bursting into the world.

How much should a 4-week-old baby be eating?

You may be settling into a better sleeping schedule now, which means fewer interruptions for eating. However, nighttime eating is still quite frequent for one-month-olds, so soldier on with those sleepless nights.

For a guideline feeding amount, weigh your baby and then feed them about 150ml-200ml per kilo. Although don’t worry if your baby seems to be overeating, she knows how much she should or shouldn’t eat at this stage and will only eat when she wants to. Whether your baby is breastfed or formula-fed, follow your baby’s lead.

If you’re having trouble breastfeeding, it might be time to seek help and make sure there’s nothing else going on, so book an appointment with your GP and ask for some support as they will be able to advise on the best positions to try when breastfeeding.

How much should a 4-week-old baby be pooing?

Worried your baby isn’t regular enough? Don’t fret, as long as they’re going between one and ten times a day – plus wetting their nappy at least six times a day – they’re perfectly fine. You may want to check out a poo colour chart if you’re concerned that something isn’t quite right with what you’ve been finding inside their nappy to put your mind at ease.

4-week-old baby milestones

Finding their fingers and toes: Your baby is starting to realise they have some handy attachments – their hands and feet! Don’t worry if they still seem oblivious to them though, as each baby will develop at their own pace.

Let the cooing commence: Finally, a break from the crying, your baby will realise they can make some other noises too. That means the cutest cooing sounds are bound to begin while you chat away to your baby.

Vision: At 4 weeks, your baby might be able to see much more clearly. They may now be able to see up to 18 inches in front of them, so keep holding their head close to your face like normal. You can expect their sight to develop even further into their fifth week of baby development.

Tight fists: Your baby will hold their hands in tight fists. This can be a sign that they’re hungry. They tend to start to reach for things around now too, and their hands will fully open up by the time baby is eight weeks old. You will see how fascinated they are by their hands as they will stare at them. They should be discovering a lot about their bodies in their fourth week.

Head lifts: After their first month, you’ll be seeing a lot of body changes and developments. By now you’ve probably noticed a loss of puffiness in their face. At this point, they will be able to hold their head up solo for a minute or two. Already a big change from weeks 2 and 3 with more control over their head as well as turning their necks from side to side.

Things to be aware of at 4-weeks

Dealing with colic: If your baby is crying for hours on end, three times a week for at least three weeks, they might be suffering from colic. It affects up to 40 per cent of babies, but that doesn’t make it any easier to deal with. Talk to your doctor if you notice your baby is crying for hours for no reason.

Sleep deprivation: You may be almost getting used to living off no sleep by now, but just in case you’re not, it’s worth trying a change in your diet with some energy-boosting foods. Plus, some mummy beauty products to disguise all those sleepless nights!

Postnatal Depression: Your hormones should be settled by now and the baby blues finally over. If you’re still struggling with feelings of failure, or as though everything could go wrong and that it’s all your fault, you may be experiencing postnatal depression. With one in ten women experiencing postnatal depression, it’s something you must talk to your doctor about to ensure the best possible recovery. If you’re unsure whether you’re experiencing postnatal depression or your baby blues hormones are clinging on, check out these key differences.

Baby growth spurts: 3 signs your baby is actually going through one

Photo: iStockPhoto

If your baby seems to fit that sweet little onesie one day and has it busting at the seams the next, it may not be your sleep-deprived eyes playing tricks on you. Baby growth spurts are aplenty in those first sweet 12 months.

Although growth spurts can happen at any time, it’s common for them to hit at about 10 days, between three and six weeks, and several times afterward. Three-month growth spurts, as well as six and nine-month growth spurts, are especially common. It’s one of the reasons it’s so important to have several sizes of baby clothes on your newborn checklist.

And when a baby growth spurt strikes, it can be fast and furious; babies can measurably gain weight and length in just 24 hours, says Michelle Lampl, a doctor and growth researcher at Emory University in Atlanta. Her studies show that tots can sprout as much as nine millimeters in length in just one day.

Wondering if your babe is in the midst of a spurt? Here’s what you might notice.

01She’ll sleep like a log (or be up all night)

In the day or so before a big growth spurt, some babies sleep more than usual. “There are important physiological changes that happen during sleep that are essential for growth,” says Peter Nieman, a paediatrician and assistant clinical professor at the University of Calgary medical school.

Don’t wake her for feedings unless it’s within the first week and advised by your care provider. “She needs her rest, and she’ll make up for milk or formula she missed at her next feeding,” he says.

02She’ll be hungry

Some babies prefer food to snoozing during a growth spurt. Even if she was starting to sleep longer stretches at night, your baby may suddenly want to eat around the clock again.

At about the three-month mark, Carrie Fisher, a Toronto mom of two, noticed a huge spike in her daughter Ramona’s appetite. “I knew she must be going through a growth spurt because she was inconsolable unless she was nursing,” Fisher says. “I thought there might be something wrong with my milk supply because she never seemed full.”

If you’re breastfeeding, don’t worry, your body will keep pace with baby’s appetite. (Have real concerns that you’re not producing enough milk? Talk to your doctor. ) Be sure to drink plenty of fluids and recruit your partner or a family member to help with everything that can’t be done with a babe in arms until the spurt passes.

If you’re using formula, increase the amount you’re giving very gradually—there is a danger of overfeeding. “If your baby starts spitting up more than usual she’s probably getting too much,” says Nieman.

She’ll be cranky

Frequent fussing can be normal for a few days during baby growth spurts. “This can seem rather dramatic at the time, but it doesn’t last very long, and babies will calm down after their growth spurt,” says Lampl. Lots of cuddling and reassurance in the meantime will help to soothe her.

All baby growth spurts pass eventually

You may feel like that growth spurt will never end, but it will. Most only last a couple of days. Not convinced that a growth spurt is to blame? Shifts in mood, feeding habits and sleep schedule can also mean that she’s getting sick, starting to teethe (if she’s older than three months) or just needing extra comfort due to a change in routine.

Talk to your doctor if you’re concerned that her symptoms might be something more, but don’t stress about exactly how much your baby is growing, or when, and don’t compare her size to that of other babies. At each wellness visit, your doctor will track her growth (measuring length, head circumference and weight).

As long as she’s gaining steadily and proportionally there’s no reason to sweat exact ounces or inches, says Neiman. “All babies grow at their own rate and speed—they know what they’re doing.”

Growth spurt results: development of physical skills

Growth spurts usher in a wave of new physical skills and are typically the time when you will see changes in your child’s physical abilities. Your baby may learn to roll over, crawl or even stand during this period. However, your baby will likely be extra tired or fussy during a growth spurt as well, which can lead to coordination difficulties.

It is important to be nearby as they practice their new physical skills during this time so that you can cushion the inevitable tumbles.

Growth spurt result: height and weight changes

One of the most obvious changes during a growth spurt is an increase in height and weight. Infant growth spurts typically last only a few days, but you may notice a marked difference in your baby’s size after this period. While your baby grows a little bit every day, at the end of a growth spurt, you may notice that her clothes are now too small or that you need to go up a size in diapers.

In general, your baby should double in weight by the time she’s six months old and triple her weight by her first birthday.

Growth spurt result: head size changes

In addition to buying larger jumpers and diapers, you might also find that your baby needs bigger sun hats and toques during her early growth spurts. In the first year, a baby’s head grows 4 to 5 inches. During her first four months, specifically, your baby’s skull will grow more quickly than at any other time in her life.

So, if you find a cap you really love, you might want to pick it up in a couple different sizes!

Growth spurt result: clumsiness

Much like a gangly pre-teen, your baby might display some previously unseen clumsiness as these physical skills begin to develop and this rapid growth takes place. Those limbs aren’t where they were the day before, so it just makes sense that some flailing and new discovery of gravity might occur in this stage.

SbytovaMN / Getty Images

Growth spurt result: cognitive development

Growth spurts also bring about changes in cognitive ability. You may notice your baby repetitively practicing a skill during this time, whether it’s rolling over, laughing, hand-eye coordination or attempting to stand. During a spurt, your baby’s brain is making loads of new neural connections that allow them to attempt things that were out of reach in the past—so enjoy those new smiles or extra laughs as she practices her newfound skills.

Growth spurt result: more or less alert

All the changes your baby is going through physically and mentally during these early growth spurts can, understandably, impact their energy levels when they’re awake. Depending on where in a growth spurt they are, and other factors, you might find she’s more engaged in her waking hours or less alert and playful than she used to be. The former makes sense with all these new connections her brain is making, while the latter can be due to being more tired or focused on other essentials, like feeding.

Why is your baby crying and how to calm him down?

Your baby is not yet able to put his feelings into words. Therefore, when he wants to tell you something or just wants attention, he starts crying. After a few weeks of the baby’s life, you will already be able to distinguish hungry crying from crying from fatigue, or you will understand that you just need to pick up the baby in your arms to calm him down. Below we will give you some tips on how to recognize the cause of your baby’s crying and how you can calm him down.

What to do if the baby is crying?

Some parents fear that by reacting too quickly to their baby’s crying, they may spoil him. This is an outdated view! Scientific studies have shown that with a quick reaction to crying, children become less whiny, because the sooner you eliminate the cause of the baby’s crying, the better the child will know that you are always ready to help him.

The most common reasons for crying are:

  • The child is hungry.
  • He is hot or cold.
  • He has tummy troubles, colic and gas
  • Something that hurts or causes discomfort, eg diaper rash, irritation.
  • It’s time for a diaper change.
  • He is bored or lonely.
  • He is overexcited and cannot sleep.
  • It is uncomfortable for the baby to lie or sit, for example, the diaper or diaper is wrinkled.
  • Uncomfortable clothing pulls, pinches or rubs.
  • He scratched himself.
  • Hair tourniquet (hair tightly wrapped around the finger).
  • Too bright light or loud noise.
  • He has a runny nose which can make sucking difficult.

After 4 months, babies have more reasons to cry:

  • The child does not see his mother or is frightened.
  • The child is bored and wants to play.
  • Child hits himself, falls or cannot roll over.
  • The first teeth erupt. Sometimes this process is accompanied by high temperature.

Most of these causes can be eliminated quite quickly and thus calm the baby. However, if crying is unusual or continues for too long (more than 3 hours), the child should be taken to the doctor.

How to calm a crying baby?

To calm a crying baby, start with one of these actions:

  • The main rule is mother’s warmth and attention!

First of all, take the baby in your arms. Feeling your warmth, it is quite possible that he will calm down immediately.

  • Check if the child is hungry?

Offer him breasts. Perhaps the baby did not eat well in the past feeding and got hungry ahead of time.

Even if the baby is only slightly wet, change the diaper or change clothes.

  • Calm down yourself.

If you are annoyed by the fact that the baby is crying, you first need to calm down, because the baby is able to feel the mother’s mood.

If you can’t figure out why your baby is crying, take him for a walk or to the store. A change of scenery will also have a positive effect on your mood.

No matter what your voice is, it is important for your baby to hear it, it will help him calm down.

He may be tormented by excess air from eating. The position on the stomach helps the discharge of gases and excess air. You can simply hold the baby to you, holding him upright. We recommend doing this after every feeding.

Some babies have a calming effect on motion sickness. But it is not necessary to rock him at home, walking from corner to corner. You can ride with him in a car or bus, rock him in a stroller or walk with him in a “backpack”. There are special sprung vibrating seats and baby swings that are perfect for calming cranky babies.

You may not notice it right away. Offer him a teether. If the growth of the first teeth is causing your baby pain, talk to your doctor.

If your baby has a fever, constipation or diarrhea, rashes and redness of the skin, or something else, call the doctor at home immediately.

If the child has skin irritation, diaper rash, bathe the baby in warm water with the addition of decoctions of chamomile, oak bark, St. John’s wort, eucalyptus leaves, calendula flowers. After the bath, hold the baby without a diaper for a while, and then apply a special healing and soothing cream.

If the baby is not comfortable sitting or lying down, or has uncomfortable clothes, change his position, change clothes to ensure maximum comfort.

A baby’s constant or frequent crying can irritate you. Despite the fact that the child is still very small, he is already able to feel your mood and respond to it. To avoid the vicious circle of “crying – annoying mom – crying”, try to take a short break. Let his dad or other relatives look after the baby. Even a short break will help you calm down, gain physical and moral strength. You will even begin to miss the baby, and when you return, you will find a new way to calm the child. If for some reason crying does not allow you or your baby to relax, talk to your doctor.

Why a newborn does not sleep well during the day and is naughty

Sleep both during the day and at night is very important for the harmonious development and health of every child. But many parents think that if the child sleeps little during the day, then he will sleep better at night. Is it so? And what could be the reasons that the baby does not sleep during the day and is naughty? Let’s figure it out!

Why does a baby sleep little during the day?

Most often it happens that babies sleep worse during the day. There are several objective reasons for this. Firstly, in the daytime, the “sleep hormone” helper of all mothers, melatonin, is produced at a minimum level and therefore it is more difficult to fall asleep. Secondly, the older the baby, the more interesting it is to be awake than to sleep. Thirdly, daytime sleep conditions can hardly be called “helping” – bright light, noise, activity of adults and older children.

But the main cause of poor daytime sleep is an incorrect mode and overwork.

                                               If the mother misses the time for going to bed, the baby will overdo it and it will be more difficult or even completely impossible to put him down. Therefore, for daytime sleep, it is so important to observe the time of wakefulness and monitor signs of fatigue, and from 6 months you can talk about the mode of daytime sleep and wakefulness.

It is important to understand that without an optimal amount of daytime sleep, nighttime sleep will be worse and, in general, the baby will be overtired. Thus, daytime sleep is inextricably linked to the quality of nighttime sleep.

How much sleep does a child need?

You can refer to age norms of sleep to know how much sleep your child needs day and night.

If we look closely at the graph, we will see that:

  • 0-4 months – babies need 3-4 naps or more, depending on the duration of sleep and their quality
  • 4-9 months – 3 naps
  • 15-18 months – 2 naps
  • 1.5 – 4 years – 1 nap

Most often, morning sleep begins after the shortest period of wakefulness. It is important to ensure that the last daytime nap does not end later than 17:30, so as not to violate the principle of early bedtime and night sleep.

Sleep rates are given as a guide, and it is important for parents to understand the individual sleep rate of their baby. Therefore, the main criterion is the behavior of the child.

It is important to understand the balance of night and day sleep. Children up to a certain age are not yet able to compensate for one dream at the expense of another. But after 2 years they can do it. If children sleep a lot for several days, you will soon notice that it is difficult to put them to sleep at night and its duration is reduced. And if the baby sleeps a lot at night , and at the same time – little in the daytime, then you just need to adjust the mode. Your baby does not want to fall asleep for a daytime sleep because he had a good night’s sleep. But in this case, the time of wakefulness will be unevenly distributed, and for a short sleep the child will not have time to restore strength before the next sleep. So there must be a measure in everything.

Short naps

If the baby sleeps little during daytime naps, it may be because he does not know how to link sleep cycles and sleeps in short naps of 40 minutes . Then it is important to help prolong sleep and gradually teach to fall asleep on its own, if the baby is already more than 6 months old. Up to 6 months, the baby still needs mom’s help to fall asleep and move from one sleep cycle to another. But even here it is important to gradually give variety in the ways of calming. Otherwise, breastfeeding and rocking can become a strong sleep association.

Therefore, if the child has a good night’s sleep, then the night’s sleep will be better.

Daytime sleep also depends on how the waking time was spent, because sleep is a reflection of how the day went: impressions, overexcitation, physical activity. Analyze your situation to understand the causes of short daytime sleep and the child’s moody state:

  • Do you have enough physical activity and walks?
  • Doesn’t your big guy get too much sleep at night?
  • Does he not sleep often during the day, but briefly at the same time?
  • Are there no dreams in the stroller?
  • Is he overtired?
  • Does the baby cry often?
  • Is it too long or vice versa short time of wakefulness before nap?

Overwork and lack of sleep

If the child sleeps less than normal, and during the day or looks tired, this is a sign of insufficient sleep .

In the baby’s body, the stress hormone cortisol begins to be produced and accumulated. This hormone helps the child reach sleep, but then interferes with complete relaxation, which makes sleep uneasy: it’s hard to put down, or he often wakes up at night and “walks” for an hour, or he wakes up early in the morning before 6.00.

When this lasts for several days, it may indicate overwork . But do not confuse with the case when the day before there was a stressful situation, overexcitation or illness of the baby, which can also affect the quality of sleep. The stress hormone, accumulating in the body, prevents the child from relaxing, the nervous system cannot calm down, and it is still imperfect. Therefore, the child does not fall into a deep sleep, does not relax completely, therefore does not get enough sleep again, and in a circle – he does not rest much during daytime sleep and is naughty.

Let’s take a closer look at how it works? Getting up too early in the morning (before 6 in the morning) indicates a lack of sleep for the baby and affects daytime sleep – it shifts in time and becomes of poor quality due to cortisol, which on the eve of a night’s sleep caused the child to overwork. As a result, after such a daytime sleep, the child does not feel completely rested, and fatigue and lack of sleep accumulate in the evening. This leads to overwork, and it is already very difficult to put a little fidget in the evening quickly and without tears and tantrums. Such conditions and the condition of the child again lead to poor-quality night sleep: frequent nocturnal awakenings, long “walks” in the middle of the night, and again to early awakenings.

Until the mother sleeps the child, lack of sleep will drag on and negatively affect the sleep and behavior of the baby.

How to compensate for lack of sleep?

Here are some simple tips to help compensate for your little one’s lack of sleep: Even a few days with extra sleep will make the child feel better.

  • It is important to prolong early morning awakenings before 6.00 by all possible means. In such a situation, a theatrical awakening can help: show that the morning does not start when the baby wakes up, but when the curtains open, the light turns on, the mother comes up and kisses, tells a nursery rhyme for awakening, does gymnastics. Enter a wake-up ritual and use it every time to help your little one separate short-term awakenings from rising times.

  • It is important to prolong short daytime naps . Remember, if you neglect this rule, then the baby will get used to short sleep, and, accordingly, to stay awake for a short time. By extending daytime sleep, you teach the baby to link sleep cycles and get quality rest.

  • Watch for signs of fatigue when laying down your baby , but distinguish them from signs of overwork. And remember, if the baby had a daytime sleep for less than an hour (we do not take into account the 3rd dream, for which this is typical and normal), then he will want to fall asleep earlier and will not be able to withstand a long wakefulness.

  • Find the optimal time for bedtime. Watch your child from 18:00 to 21:00 for several days and look for a comfortable time for bedtime – the “sleep window”, it is during these 20 minutes of the golden “sleep window” that the baby will fall asleep most easily.

  • Get enough time to get ready for bed : 30-40 minutes before going to bed devote to rituals and relaxing activities. Remember about the rituals not only for a night’s sleep, but also for falling asleep before a daytime sleep. Such calm actions help the baby switch from wakefulness and tune in to sleep.

. Otherwise, you may face overtraining and overwork.

  • Pay attention to stable sleeping conditions . It is important for a child to fall asleep and wake up in familiar and comfortable sleep conditions. If daytime dreams were always on the street, then the child could get used to sleep only at motion sickness in a wheelchair. To prevent such strong unwanted sleep habits, organize daytime naps at home (the exception may be for the 3rd nap). But remember, at the moment of accustoming to daytime sleep at home, and not on the street, you may encounter a child’s protest, he is used to sleeping in other conditions, so it takes time to get used to sleeping at home, in better conditions for sleep and rest .

The importance of education is evident when it comes to being self-dependent. If we are we educated, then it’s something that belongs to us, and only us, allowing us to rely on no one else other than ourselves.

83+ Best School Quotes,

by Emmaline Soken-Huberty

In many places, people take school for granted. Going to school may be a source of annoyance or frustration. At some point in their lives, many kids wish they didn’t have to go at all. Dropping out and starting their “real lives” might be sound appealing. Why does school matter so much? There are ten reasons why:

#1. School teaches social skills

For most kids, school is the first setting where they learn to socialize with others. They learn to make friends, listen to teachers, and work through problems. Learning these social skills early on gives kids an important foundation for their interactions in society. It’s the responsibility of teachers and other adults to encourage healthy socialization. They should also address issues like bullying.

#2. School helps young people build confidence

Being self-assured and confident in one’s abilities is crucial to healthy self-esteem. People who don’t have much confidence are more likely to be taken advantage of and struggle with anxiety. In a school setting, kids get the opportunity to build their confidence early on. As they learn to read, write, solve math problems, and more, their confidence in their abilities increases. A teacher plays a very important role in this. It’s their job to celebrate a student’s progress as well as their successes, as many struggle with certain subjects.

#3. School encourages critical thinking

Critical thinking is an essential part of any subject in school. Whether it’s literature, science, or history, students develop critical thinking techniques. They use these to absorb the material, form their own ideas, and express themselves in writing and speaking. These skills translate to every area of life, whether it’s in academia, the work setting, or relationships.

#4. School introduces young people to future goals

School introduces students to a wide variety of subjects. More often than not, a student connects with certain topics on a deep level. Whether it’s through a research paper or group project, they get opportunities to explore their interests further. Students consider what they want their career to be and develop goals for the future. With support from teachers, any student can see what’s possible and work towards their passions.

#5. School gives students a variety of opportunities

Schools are more than just classrooms. Most also offer sports, clubs, and other extracurricular activities. Some of these can lead to scholarships, giving students access to great opportunities for their futures. Even if a student doesn’t thrive in a classroom setting, they can find something else at their school that benefits them.

#6. School builds communities

School can become an important source of community for many students. For some, it may be the one place where they feel like they can be themselves. School can also serve as a community for parents, so it benefits whole families. For students, feeling like they belong and are part of something bigger than themselves is very important. They’ll feel supported and encouraged, and even when they leave school, they’ll strive to find and build community wherever they go.

#7. School teaches the importance of the learning process

It’s not unusual for students to question the point of any given topic at school. “When am I going to use this?” they might ask. While you might not use a specific math formula in your daily life, the process of learning is what matters. Memorizing formulas, analyzing a piece of literature, and engaging in civil discussions train the brain. In the future, when you need to learn something new, that training kicks in.

#8. School reduces poverty

Education is an essential part of reducing poverty around the world. When children receive an education, they’re able to access jobs with higher incomes. That benefits their whole families and can end cycles of poverty that keep communities down. If a country wants to reduce poverty, it needs to invest in schools. Other factors impact what kind of a job someone can get, but it’s generally true that as a person gets more schooling, their income potential goes up.

#9. School is good for gender equality

In addition to reducing poverty, education combats gender inequality. In many places, girls receive less education than boys. This affects the jobs they can get and makes them more vulnerable to violence and human trafficking. When they go to school, girls increase their income potential and safety. Research also shows that in countries that value education, maternal death rates go down.

#10. School benefits the whole country

Schools can benefit individuals and communities, so it makes sense that a whole country will do better when they have good schools. Starting for a young age, citizens receive the education they need to get higher-paying jobs. They are more likely to invest their resources back into schools for the next generation. Agencies like the World Bank recognize the importance of education for a country’s economic development.

10 Benefits Showing Why Education Is Important to Our Society

Do you think attending school and doing projects for your college is a waste of time? If you do, you might want to reconsider that claim as education is a key part of a society’s growth and progress. When people are educated, they can significantly contribute to their families and society in various aspects and fields, thus creating a stable and stimulating community. Why is education important to society? Let’s take into account some reasons. 

1. Creating More Employment Opportunities

Finding a job is not easy, especially in times of economic turmoil. You often need to compete with hundreds of other candidates for a vacant position. In addition, the lower the education level, the greater the number of people applying for the same low-paying entry-level post. However, with the right qualifications and educational background, you will increase your chances of landing a fulfilling job. Would you like to find a way to stand out from a pool of applicants? Learn, educate yourself, graduate and get as many qualifications, skills, knowledge, and experience as possible. 

2. Securing a Higher Income

People with higher education and varied experience are more likely to get high-paying, expert jobs. Study hard, dedicate your time and effort to acquire knowledge and reach a high level of competence if you would like to lead a comfortable lifestyle. Your credentials are what will motivate a potential employer to choose you instead of another candidate. Studying hard throughout your school and studies shows you are not afraid of hard work and are able to fulfill your goals. Employers see this as a huge advantage as they all prefer a responsible and knowledgeable workforce. Once you graduate, you can start searching for jobs that will give you the opportunity to practice what you have learned and, at the same time, secure sufficient pay for your needs. 

3. Developing Problem-solving Skills 

One of the benefits of education is that the educational system teaches us how to obtain and develop critical and logical thinking and make independent decisions. When children become adults, they are faced with a lot of challenging issues – pay off your student loans, get a job, buy a car and a house, provide for your family, etc. However, if one has spent years educating themselves, they should be able to make sound decisions on these various quandaries. Not only are people able to form their own opinions, but they are also good at finding solid and reliable arguments and evidence to back up and confirm their decisions. 

4. Improving the Economy

People with good academic and educational backgrounds tend to get well-paid jobs. The higher their education and accomplishments, the better employment options they get. People who grew up poor but educated themselves have high chances to transform their lives, thus contributing to a decrease in society’s poverty rates. Education helps countries grow economically since it is about getting knowledge and being able to apply it wisely to our lives and, at the same time, improving other people’s lives.  

5. Providing a Prosperous and Happy Life

Education has always secured respect from society. In order to ensure a comfortable lifestyle, people should educate themselves and obtain a well-paid job to be successful and satisfied. It helps gain a better reputation and increases the chances of climbing the career ladder more easily and faster. In turn, it provides financial resources for stable lives – people can afford to buy their own house or apartment and thus secure their children’s happiness and success. Furthermore, being able to own your own home provides stability and increases self-confidence. It leads to creating a positive environment for families and communities. “Children of homeowners are 116% more likely to graduate from college than children of renters of the same age, race, and income. They are also 25% more likely to graduate from high school and have higher math and reading scores, with fewer behavioral problems,” according to research at the University of Tennessee.

6. Giving Back to the Community

How does education benefit society? Educated people understand how valuable it is to live in a stable and secure community. They are more prone to taking part in projects that help improve not only their neighborhood but society, as well. In addition, when people are able to afford their own home, they are more likely to take part not only in improving their homes but in solving local problems, as well. After all, it is quite important to get involved and give a hand to the less fortunate ones in order to build a better place for all of us to live in.

7. Creating Modern Society

Education is of key essence for modern society. One needs to learn about culture, history and other important aspects so that they would be able to contribute to modern society. Education molds people into leaders not only with knowledge about (college) subjects, but it also shows them how to lead with emotions and true values. Educated people can easily differentiate between right and wrong, thus education helps reduce the crime rate. Bad events are happening around the world – only competent leaders can help guide us down a good and right path. 

8. Bridging the Borders

Digital education helps connect with people and organizations around the world. Borders are no longer there. Being able to communicate and share opinions with people from other countries and cultures, widens horizons and helps us understand and appreciate each other. 

9. Creating equal opportunities

The importance of education in society has always been great as it is irrespective of caste, race, gender, religion. Educated people are treated as equals on the basis of their knowledge and competence. In addition to this, educated people are open-minded and are able to listen and accept other people’s views regardless of the fact of how different they are. Education offers a possibility to live independently and thus be free. It is our shelter against financial storms and wrong decisions. 

10. Introducing Empowerment

Education is the key to turn a weakness into a strength. It offers different tools and ways to understand problems that lay ahead of us and helps resolve them. More importantly, education provides us with considerable mental agility to make the right decisions and spring into action when needed. Many types of research show that educated women can more easily stand up against gender bias and marital violence as they have improved their decision-making capabilities. 

 

Whether it is about respect, a higher position in society and a professional environment, financial security, family stability, education provides all of these and much more. Home stability provided by owning your own home helps children who grew up in their own houses or apartments become more successful. They are more likely to graduate high school (25%) and finish college (116%). “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world,” as Nelson Mandela said. It helps people become better citizens, get a better-paid job, shows the difference between good and bad. Education shows us the importance of hard work and, at the same time, helps us grow and develop. Thus, we are able to shape a better society to live in by knowing and respecting rights, laws, and regulations. Learning languages through educational processes helps interact with different people in order to exchange ideas, knowledge, good practices. It teaches us to live in harmony.

15 Reasons Why Do We Go to School

We have heard since our childhood that we must go to school. Sometimes, our parents even have to push us for this. All of us know what is school, but at some point, we all wonder why is school important, why schooling is important, and why do we go to school.

Well, there are many reasons for this. Apart from providing education, schools play an essential role in a child’s psychological, mental, and social development. It may sometimes feel annoying to follow the same schedule every day and complete a dozen homework, but it all makes sense once school ends.

The repetitive work, time-bound schedule, and hard work pay off when we reach later stages of our lives. It makes lives more comfortable and provides us with enough fortune to give back to society and help the underprivileged.

School opens many doors to opportunity. The one who misses school can lose other chances to grow and develop as a well-mannered and successful person.

This article will discuss the importance of school and the importance of education in life.

Why Do We Go to School? (Summing-Up)

We cannot determine or calculate the importance of schooling based only on monetary success and degrees. Schools are also essential for developing a child’s personality and teaching him/her how to handle real-life challenges.

A well-educated person gets a chance to improve his life’s quality and make the right decisions. Here are some points to throw light on why is going to school important.

Gaining More Knowledge

A school is a place where we learn about the importance of education in life. The wide range of subjects (like mathematics, science, history, geography, literature, etc.) allows us to learn different languages and receive knowledge about other parts of the world.

It also gives young minds a chance to narrow down which subject they like the most and find their passion in life.

Required for Higher Education

Once a child has completed schooling, he can pursue higher education to open more doors of opportunities. It will help him follow his passion and lead a comfortable and fulfilling life. Higher education will give him specialization in his chosen field and enhance his skills.

Better Employment Opportunities

Money is essential for living a healthy and fulfilling life. It sure can’t buy happiness, but it will buy things that will make your life easier and comfortable. The higher educational qualification will lead you to higher-paying jobs.

Schooling is an essential and fundamental step towards getting a higher education. In its absence, a child can stick to entry-level jobs or low-paying jobs. These jobs usually have increased competition and can fulfill the primary necessities of a person. But it will not provide him with more opportunities to grow and prosper in life.

Increase Your Income

As we discussed, highly educated people get the opportunity to get better-paying jobs. These jobs fulfill the basic requirements of the person and help lead a comfortable life.

If you work hard to gain knowledge and learn more skills in school, everything else will become easier later in life. Even most employers pay according to the skill sets and qualifications you have earned along your educational journey. The better you have performed or invested time in gaining knowledge, the higher you have a chance to score.

Living a Well-Off and Comfortable Life

Living a prosperous and comfortable life is another reason why is it important to go to school. Everything from primary education to high-paying jobs leads to happiness. It will give a person enough financial security and resources to invest in the business and buy luxuries like an elegant apartment or a dream car.

Having financial security can help anyone secure his family’s future and provide them a stable environment for their mental well-being.

Develop Critical Problem-Solving Skills

One day we have to leave our parent’s home and become independent. When we do that, we have to make all our decisions ourselves and face life challenges. The one who has gone to school and spent days learning and gaining knowledge can independently handle life situations.

The school trains us to develop efficient critical thinking and teaches us problem-solving skills to deal with daily life challenges. A well-educated person will also find it easy to take care of his family and provide for them as an adult.

The importance of schooling is not limited only to personal growth, but it also impacts the community. A well-educated person can indulge in different fields like arts, literature, science, and technology and contribute to the well-being and development of society.

Below are some points that will shed light on the importance of schools in the community –

Educated Society

Learning different skills and gaining knowledge about various topics contribute to making a modern society. This knowledge makes us aware of the traditions, culture, and history of the region (where you belong) and helps us differentiate between right and wrong.

A well-educated person can also lead society on the right path and fight for underprivileged people’s rights.

Equality

We gain knowledge on various topics in schools, including different cultures and traditions found across other regions of the world. This knowledge educates young minds and develops a sense of equality in them.

These young minds grow up to be great leaders and contribute to society and the whole country. They can educate others, stop the wrong-doings, and push others on the right path. A well-educated person appreciates people belonging to different regions and backgrounds and teaches others to do the same.

Giving Back to Society

The ones who have gone to school know about the different problems faced by society and understand the need for a stable community. These bright minds can indulge in projects from various fields and contribute to the development of society as a whole.

Economic Growth and Development

As discussed above, a well-educated and skilled person has more chances of getting high-paying jobs. These high wage earners can contribute more to the development of society by paying tax regularly.

A society having a higher number of high wage earners will have better money circulation. It will produce more jobs and give a boost to economic growth.

Socialization educates young minds about values, cultures, attitudes, beliefs, and other criteria of a particular culture. It also teaches us different behaviors and about which ones are appropriate or standard at societal and individual levels. Mainly it is classified into two groups: Primary and Secondary Socialization.

In Primary Socialization, a child learns about different behaviors and social aspects from his/her family. Here, the child learns to socialize, acquires his first language, learn about his individual personality, and develops cognitive skills. The family also teaches him cultural valuations and specific social roles.

In Secondary Socialization, the child learns about different behaviors and social aspects when he/she joins the school. The family is the only factor influencing the actions of the child (at primary socialization). But when he enters school and gets in touch with teachers and fellow children, he develops social interaction skills.

Manners and Discipline

When a child joins the school, he follows a strict routine, which develops discipline in him. He learns to obey and respect the school authority because he knows that he will be punished for not following the instructions. A similar behavior makes the child a law-abiding citizen when he grows up.

The importance of school is not limited to here. The institution also contributes to making a child emotionally, socially, and intellectually skilled.

Today’s children are tomorrow’s adults. They can contribute more to the coming future and make it a safe place to live. But for this, they must have the right skill sets and knowledge. It is where the importance of schooling comes in.

A child gets a balanced education in the school, which is beneficial for promoting his mental and psychological growth. Here, the child learns academics, and it also develops a wide range of life skills (such as teamwork, unity, responsibility, sharing, and good manners) in him. Below are some points on the importance of school for a child’s development.

Develop Mental Abilities

Children get a chance to gain knowledge on various topics when they join the school. They usually learn about multiple fields of education like psychology, literature, history, mathematics, politics, economics, etc. The wide selection of topics develops their thought process.

For example, a child studying economics will understand different aspects of finances and learn how the world functions in monetary terms. This topic teaches a child how to handle separate finances and make him financially sound.

Develop Social Skills

Children meet a different group of people (from teacher to fellow students) in the school and learn different socializing behaviors. Here, they also get exposed to different views and perceptions of teachers and other children. They learn social skills like empathy, friendship, teamwork, and assistance, which help in the development of their personality as they grow.

Increase Physical Activities

After birth, a child goes through many stages of growth, including physical development. When the child joins the school, he gets involved in different activities like exercise, sports, etc., which further develops his physical health.

For example, children often participate in the school’s sporting events like football, basketball, baseball, athletics, etc. These events may help in the further growth of the child. If you ask the world’s greatest athletes, even they’ll tell you that they developed their talents and skills in school before becoming professionals.

Overall Development

Some people think that schools are essential only for learning academics. But a child learns way more than subjects like politics, history, arts, science, etc. A school provides a wide range of interests, which helps a kid recognize his passion in the early stages of his life.

It also helps them develop an individual personality, differentiate between right or wrong, take decisions independently, and become a better person. A child learns to use his creativity and idea to build something exciting and unique.

We start learning from early stages in our lives and continue to learn throughout our lives. But the education provided at pre-school programs acts as a foundation for learning later in life. The learning process continues in senior school, but by the time he joins college, he is already prepared to face different aspects of their adult life.

Everyone knows the importance of education in life, and every kid has the right to get it. We must also not forget that educated youth is the backbone of any country. It develops the overall personality of the child and develops independent thinking in them. The learning of different subjects at school helps gain knowledge and drive long-term economic development in society.

It makes the child aware of different cultures and traditions, which develop a sense of equality in them. So, we must not undervalue the importance of school.

Today’s Wonder of the Day was inspired by Rebecca from AL. Rebecca Wonders, “who created school?” Thanks for WONDERing with us, Rebecca!

Why was school created? We’re sure that’s a question that every student asks from time to time. Especially on tough test days, many students WONDER exactly why they’re being subjected to such cruel and unusual punishment!

If you’re honest with yourself, though, you know what a great place school is. You have fun, learn all sorts of interesting things, and get to spend quality time with your friends. Sure, tests can be stressful, but think of how boring life would be if you didn’t get to learn new things and see other people so often!

Schools are not a new invention. You may have seen some old one-room schoolhouses that have been around for a couple hundred years or more. The earliest schools, though, date back thousands of years!

In fact, education dates back to the very first humans ever to inhabit Earth. Why? To survive, every generation has found it necessary to pass on its accumulated knowledge, skills, values, and traditions to the next generation. How can they do this? Education! Each subsequent generation must be taught these things.

The earliest human beings didn’t need schools to pass along information. They educated youngsters on an individual basis within the family unit. Over time, however, populations grew and societies formed.

Rather than every family being individually responsible for education, people soon figured out that it would be easier and more efficient to have a small group of adults teach a larger group of children. In this way, the concept of the school was born.

Ancient schools weren’t like the schools we know today, though. The earliest schools often focused more on teaching skills and passing along religious values, rather than teaching specific subject areas like is common today.

In the United States, the first schools began in the 13 original colonies in the 17th century. For example, Boston Latin School, which was founded in 1635, was the first public school and the oldest existing school in the country.

The earliest schools focused on reading, writing, and mathematics. The New England colonies led the way in requiring towns to set up schools. The Massachusetts Bay Colony made basic education a requirement in 1642. However, many of the earliest schools were only for boys, and there were usually few, if any, options for girls.

After the American Revolution, education became a higher priority. States quickly began to establish public schools. School systems were not uniform, however, and would often vary greatly from state to state.

Credit for our modern version of the school system usually goes to Horace Mann. When he became Secretary of Education in Massachusetts in 1837, he set forth his vision for a system of professional teachers who would teach students an organized curriculum of basic content. For this reason, Mann is often called the “Father of the Common School Movement.”

Many other states quickly followed Mann’s system he instituted in Massachusetts. More and more states began to require school attendance. By 1918, every state required students to complete elementary school. Educational improvements grew by leaps and bounds during the 20th century, leading to the advanced systems we enjoy today.

Wonder What’s Next?

We wouldn’t TRADE tomorrow’s Wonder of the Day for anything!

Try It Out

School is in session and it’s time to grab some friends and family members to help you explore the following fun activities:

  • Field trip time! Ask an adult friend or family member to take you on a driving tour of local schools. Sure, you’re familiar with your current school, but what will your next school look like? What do the schools in other nearby towns look like? Have fun driving around and comparing the different schools in your area.
  • How much do you love your school? Make a list of the top five things you love the most about your school. Share your thoughts with a teacher or administrator. Then make a list of five areas where your school could improve. Instead of sharing those ideas, brainstorm some things that YOU could do to make things better. When you have some solid ideas for improvements, ask a teacher or administrator for help implementing one or more of your ideas. Have fun being the change you want to see in your school!
  • Up for a challenge? You’re in charge of public education in your city. You don’t have to do anything like the way things have always been done. You just have to make sure that children receive the education they need to succeed in today’s society. What system would you put in place? Would you create schools? Or would you do something completely different? Give it some thought and write a short description of what system you would create and why you would make the decisions you’d make. Have fun thinking about education from a new perspective!

“Why do we need a school?” and 4 more questions to parents who are thinking about homeschooling

An unequivocal answer to the question “why do we need a school?” give hard. For some parents, this is a place where the child will gain knowledge about the world or be able to deal with himself, for others, it is a way to free himself from additional burdens. Understanding the purpose of the school for parents and children can differ dramatically, and this point should be taken into account when choosing the form of education for your child. Over the past few years, people in Ukraine have been talking more and more about homeschooling. The format of home learning is actively supported by the advocacy campaign “Osvitniy experiment”. Its founder, coordinator of social and reform projects, Anastasia Leukhina, is the mother of 13-year-old Klim, who left school 4 years ago. Looking back at the experience of these years, she formulated five questions, the answers to which should help parents and children find a form of education that is convenient for them.

1. Why do you need a child, and why do you need a child?

In this question, I have identified for myself three priority aspects that you should look at when choosing a training format.

Subjectivity : who makes decisions and influences? Is your child a subject or an object? Does he make decisions himself, or do you do it for him? By answering these questions, you will understand for yourself who is responsible for the choice, and who decides how to study.

Strength : do you need a child to feel his strength, or to help him feel his own? In the relationship between parents and children, manifestations of power are very different, and awareness is important here. Family models are all different, and I’m not saying that some of them are good and some are bad. But I think that parents who need a child to show their strength should in no case transfer it to home schooling.

Freedom : How do you feel about your child’s freedom? This moment intersects with subjectivity. If you give a child freedom, then he is an object. If you respect her, then he is a subject. In fact, it is about how much you trust the child in what choice he will make and how he will live with the consequences of this choice.

2. What is a school?

Are they people? Is this space? Is it knowledge? We are used to the fact that everyone goes to school for some time, but, depending on different tasks, the school can be very different. If we see in school a place for the personal growth of a child, then we need to understand in what direction should his personality grow? If we are talking about knowledge, then what meaning should it have for a child? When you transition to home schooling, you need to make a decision about how to allocate resources of time and money. The answers may be different and ambiguous, but it is important to follow them.

3. Why do you and your child need school?

The answers to this question for a parent and a child can be completely different. For a parent, a school can be a kind of left-luggage office, a free babysitting. Or a place where the child will be filled with knowledge, but again, what kind of knowledge? There is another option when the parent does not cope with the upbringing, and sends the child to school to be trained.

A child may have completely different goals at school. For example, make friends, or run away from home because it’s uncomfortable there, or try something harmful and forbidden, because you can’t at home. These goals are not at all related to either knowledge or the educational process.

There is no one answer here, this question opens up many facets for reasoning. We used to think that the school prepares the child for the future, but we must admit that we cannot predict what it will be. Therefore, it is worth honestly admitting to ourselves that we do not know what to prepare a child for. This made me feel better immediately.

4. What is the learning hypothesis?

At work, I came across such a concept as the development hypothesis. Everything is built on the principle: if I focus my attention on one thing, then in the end I expect to get something else. It does not always materialize, hence the hypothesis, but at the same time it can be a filter for the decisions you make.

Construct this hypothesis for yourself and your child. It will help you answer questions about how to prioritize, where to allocate resources, how to organize time, whether to look for a tutor, and how to measure results. Depending on what you want to get out of it – a healthy personality, a calm child, or an over-the-top smart child – you will need to invest completely different resources.

With Klim, I immediately clearly built a priority, and it was not in the intellect or grades, but in the emotional development of the mind and body. My hypothesis was: “If a child has a high level of emotional intelligence, can cope with his own and other people’s feelings, learns to work on his body, then he will cope with any challenges that appear on his way.”

5. What kind of socialization does your child need?

Socialization is different, and it does not always have a positive effect on children. Children get a lot of socialization from relationships with teachers. But I realized that at Klim’s school it was purely a training for submission – a standard approach convenient for teachers. I didn’t want my child to be made into a soldier who was afraid to say no.

The second side of socialization at school is the relationship with children. When we imagine a school, we often see a space where children play, exchange thoughts and help each other out in any situation. Looks great, but is it really? We know very little about what kind of relationships are built between children at school. Here it is important to ask yourself a couple of questions. First, do you want your child to go through bullying and abuse in school to build character and prepare for real life? Because for some children it really strengthens, but for others it is a trauma for life. And, secondly, is it important to you that the child learns to cope with his aggression and direct it to others? For me, this is a very debatable point. Many children after all this will need the help of a psychotherapist. Whether you have enough funds for this is another important question.

Why the school is important for the child’s development (Full Description)

Home »Ecum the Education

Below you will see why school matters . The following factors will be reflected in the school curriculum, which greatly contribute to the development of young minds.

The school plays a very important role in the life of every person and in the development of the child. Today’s children are the future of tomorrow.

The role of the school in our lives , the school, arouses interest and gives them the opportunity to become successful people. The expansion of the new education system is similar to the development of our society. It is well known that the method of learning is essential for defining personality and coping with life’s circumstances. The transition from book literacy to the experience of existence has caused a wave of shifts in schools.

People understand that learning is the secret to positive growth, not a means of graduating and achieving material advancement in life.

Education requires the formation of a positive chain of thought and the improvement of our cognitive skills. Let’s look at the importance of the directions coming from the teaching of the school.

Importance of education

The school plays a very important role in the education of children. This is a basic guide for teaching children. It offers them the opportunity to learn about various fields of education including human, literature, culture, mathematics, politics and a number of other topics. This helps to improve the reasoning mechanism. If you are exposed to stimuli from different cultures, the environment and life become huge.

School education should pay special attention to certain aspects

Social aspect

School is the first opportunity for a child to socialize. By then, the only people with whom the infant has interpersonal contact are the parents and members of the extended family.

Awareness

Fresh concepts are introduced not only to children in schools, but also to elderly fellow countrymen. This gives rise to social behaviors such as empathy, communication, participation, and encouragement that are essential in adulthood.

Mental aspect

School is the basic foundation of knowledge for children. It provides an opportunity to learn about various fields of education, including people, literature, culture, mathematics, politics and a number of other topics. This contributes to the development of thought processes in children.

Physical

The fetus is biologically formed after pregnancy.

Although there is a small outlet in the house, the child must still direct his energy through more sociable directions at school.

Research has shown that although the boy is ready for spontaneous outbursts in a comfortable environment, he continues to behave better only when he is introduced to people of the same generation.

Moreover, familiarity helps circumstances to be used to one’s advantage when the gender in the school is evened out.

In addition, children can use their unlimited energy for something positive through activities such as sports, crafts.

In the past, schools were seen as places where incidents could be studied throughout history, difficult math questions answered, poetry or sonnets recited.

The student knows how to follow the traditional course of study in the scenario of the modern staged development of his body.

Children are encouraged to develop their own consciousness and interest is maintained through a modular curriculum.

Much attention is paid to the value of creativity. Game tasks and an interactive program contribute to the formation of a mature cognitive basis.

Understanding the existence of life is also related to learning. We can benefit from our parents to some extent, but in an educational setting, children are exposed to a variety of sources from which they can get more information that is important for their growth. The school is also important in order to instill in children a life among people, an understanding of people in general.

General development

The cornerstone of any culture is education.

Education is responsible for the economic and social progress of society as a whole, as well as for political development. The thread of the development of society will be based on the standard of education. Thus, schools play an important role in defining the culture of a country as its potential people flourish everywhere.

Some benefits of the school are as follows

  • In response to why school is important schools play an important role in human development. When they communicate with others, everyone knows things. In college they study the material. Moreover, it is an informal way of teaching a person. System requirements for training need discussion.
  • Schools provide much of the structured education needed to survive in a culture. It helps the individual to develop his/her academic ability so that he can support the society. Thus, the child can act in society. Education also prepares students to meet other people so they can experience different experiences, values, and feelings.
  • School education helps a person to recognize differences and similarities with other cultures. Helps to appreciate the ideas and traditions of other people. We will exist in harmony and good will with each other, loving each other.
  • Study improves speech and a person’s confidence. Teaching and discussing the understanding of what has been learned is one way to make friends. Usually these helpers stay with you throughout your life. Schools are the cornerstone of human mental and physical development.

University scientists

Schools teach important sciences such as algebra and mother tongue.

  • This applies to many areas such as education, science, law and industry. Schools open the universe to students in many areas. Students choose and travel to college to learn more about their topics. If you decide to resume your studies, you will enjoy your chosen topic in the research project.
  • Anyone can still use people’s prior knowledge to build a more organized set of parts in a particular area. The school lays the foundations of the curriculum and then focuses on the ideal theme in the universities. People who learn and use their knowledge find it easier to find a job. Qualification-based jobs are given to those who are most academically successful.
  • School is one of the strongest opportunities to improve a person’s skills. It improves the person intellectually and academically, giving him a benefit when questioning him or her. Effective interviews mean they will do what they want. As an engaged part of the community, they will help build themselves and those around them.

Differences in learning and understanding of the value of schools of comparison

  • Even so, the concept of good grades is usually a matter of academic attention. Students spend more time studying and knowing further tests instead of studying the material. Schools are moving away from the notion of mere grades; they even encourage children to coexist. Children from different racial backgrounds come from different cultures in colleges.
  • You must learn to adapt and control yourself. The school shows us that we have certain connections, even with individual stories. A person’s beliefs, skin color, caste, or opinion can reflect the image of another person. School allows us to debunk myths and teach us that we are both individuals with many characteristics.
  • It doesn’t mean that you have a certain society that destroys all societies. Similarly, a belief is a set of beliefs that do not really seek to actively compete with those who hold that belief. This allows you to see past limited views that contribute to confrontation and social problems.
  • This brings us closer to talking about our problems. Problems such as malnutrition, hunger and disease are among the most prevalent in some countries. Schools demonstrate that through our coexistence these problems will be easily solved and the world will be healthier for everyone. The context and culture of different cultures can be explored through education. We will learn to work with them by learning.

Vocal and reliable

When you understand information, it’s easier to talk to others. His feelings and suggestions became clearer. It affects people and the culture also develops accordingly.

Learning new things makes people remember what surrounds them. You won’t fully grasp what’s around you until you think about it.

  • In the same way, the study of other sciences and social principles teaches a person. A knowledgeable citizen is more confident in his relationships. He understands what these factors influence, what can be improved to change it. We must learn to deal with it and act, because we cannot personally influence it.
  • This strengthens the person’s voice in his experience and he is more optimistic that his time at school will inspire him. The more you dedicate to understanding something, the more adept you are at that topic. You will talk to the people around you with more ease and confidence. This encourages a person to raise his voice in society and in his own interests.

Friends

Importance of school in our life Life without friends is not complete. School can be the best place to make friends with what you love the most. When you grow up like other people, you have fun memories and activities. These friends support you in solving your life problems. If you find it difficult to solve a problem on your own, friends will make it easier.

  • You come out of your shell and do things. It’s still nice to travel with friends to different places; the school gives students friends and planned trips. This helps break the daily cycle and evaluate the business during those visits.
  • Friends help you solve life’s problems. Later, you even get to know each other at school and university, but in childhood, comrades also predominate. The hostile climate makes it difficult for students to maintain friendships at college and university.
  • On the other hand, classmates do not have any problems, so they are more united and healthy. Students encourage you to create your own improved edition.
  • Coordinator of student and community life for most people. It shows them how everything works around them. When you tell them about the differences and similarities between people, you are learning how to speak in a community. In the field of education, one learns to speak and understand the problems that a culture faces.
  • School helps a person to read and understand different things in life. You learn to communicate with other people. Schools often demonstrate that the universe is vast in scale beyond the horizon.

Conclusion

When the school is important, the school guarantees a bright future for children. It offers the knowledge to create your own life as well as to support those around you.

Do our children need a school? / Habr

For most of us, the school exists only in memories, so we do not often think about it as a public institution, its meaning and goals in the modern world. Many perceive it as a given, an integral part of life. But is it so now?

It is worth starting the story with the origin of the phenomenon. Humanity has long sought to transfer knowledge to the next generations. The most ancient method, oral transmission, has well-known shortcomings, such as the effect of a broken telephone, physical limitations in volume. In this scheme, the brain acts as a “flash drive”. It is loaded with all the knowledge of the population, in the hope that at the right moment a person will remember and isolate the specifically necessary ones. The appearance of books, ancient clay tablets of Mesopotamia, papyri and parchments of the Mediterranean, did not change the situation much. They were expensive (especially good parchment) and accessible to a limited part of the population. There was a pattern, one book – one copy. Copying a copy was an incredibly long and labor-intensive task. Why, of all the books of the Ancient World, only the Code of Hammurabi, the Epic of Gilgamesh, the Bible and a stack of Greek poems have come down to us? Because only they bothered to duplicate in sufficient quantities, and all the other books that existed then, for the most part, were lost.

In the Middle Ages, the ability to read and write was considered the prerogative of monks, and books were accordingly kept and copied in monasteries. Even many kings could not read. Here we come close to the emergence of the modern school. Yes, do not be surprised, the school, and then the university, arose in the Middle Ages precisely as parochial institutions. They almost did not differ from modern ones, the same lecturer-teacher in the center, and around him behind the benches students-pupils sat and listened. There could be no other form of education when access to books is limited and every book is a treasure. It was physically impossible to give all students a book. The lecturer-teacher naturally acted as a layer between all the books he read and the students, actually retelling the book aloud. Naturally, the students had to load all this into themselves by heart, because in their later life, access to books might not have been foreseen. That is why a “good education” was so valued.

Everything changed radically with the invention of printing. It democratized the transmission of knowledge and made books available to anyone who could read. The very first series of printed bibles was enough to unleash religious wars throughout Europe in the 16th century. After the collapse of the monopoly of the Catholic Church, the school came under the wing of the state, where illiterate children from the lower strata of the population were taught to read and write for free. Why such generosity on the part of the authorities? After all, teaching to read with one hand, with the other, they continuously persecuted and forbade reading either the Bible, or the writings of freethinkers, or Protestants, or supporters of free trade, or scientists, depending on the mood and views of those in power at a particular moment. The answer lies in the concept of “you can not win – lead.” Students are not only given basic knowledge of counting and writing, but also indoctrinated the way of behavior in society, redefined concepts of good and evil. You don’t have to look far for examples, take and look through any social studies textbook (mandatory subject). There you can learn a lot of things that will surprise many of us, for example, that children are instilled which political system is better than others, that the economy supposedly should depend on the state, “Our Motherland is a democratic and modern country.” It comes down to obvious sympathy for specific persons of modern politics “Accelerated economic growth is observed with the coming to power of N.”

I would like to draw your attention here to the very term “education”. In Russian, this is a derivative of the word “image” and literally means “to form according to something”, “to put an image [into a person]”, and “to bring [a person] into line with an image”. I leave the question open, what kind of image is this and who benefits from it? The very thinking of our children and future generations depends on the answer. With what people and in what country we will live. Education opens up endless possibilities for manipulating the gullible mind of a child.

If the advent of printing democratized the transfer of knowledge thousands of times, then the advent of the Internet – many millions of times. The situation when one physical device has access to almost all texts known to mankind, and moreover to video materials, sharply raises the question of the very need for schools with renewed vigor. In most schools, the teacher retells what is already publicly available in the textbook, and the students rewrite his words. Just like in the Middle Ages. The “teacher-remembering listeners” scheme is obsolete and looks in our time like the last sailing ships looked like in the era of steamships.

The world has changed and the Internet has become a part of life, just like electricity used to be. We do not worry that the Internet will disappear at the same time for everyone, that all servers will fail at once. There is no longer a need to turn your brain into a flash drive for useless information on the principle of “maybe it will come in handy in the future.” Any book, any textbook can be read safely and for free on the Internet. Any knowledge can be obtained instantly upon request in Google. Even for professional developers, climbing Stackoverflow is completely normal. You just need to know the basic things and be able to read. All monotonous homework has completely lost its meaning in our time. The Internet provides a choice of knowledge, of a much better quality than the teacher says. YouTube is full of videos where the teacher talks nonsense and gag, and when the student finds the correct answer on the Internet, he starts to shut his mouth and take away the phone. This situation is not normal and we should not tolerate the relics of the past.

Why, in the modern world, keep our children for so unreasonably long, five hours a day, for eleven years in a row, in an institution that looks remarkably like a prison and force them to memorize strange and often useless things? Forced to stand up, stretched out in front of a teacher, a person who did not manage to enter anywhere except the Pedagogical Institute? The well-known saying “no mind – go to the ped” was born for a reason, but because pedagogical universities have always had the lowest passing score. An enclosed space where children are forcibly placed and held, sitting hunched over in an unnatural position behind narrow desks – the worst approach to education one can imagine. Of course, in violent institutions such as schools (or the army) there have always been and will continue to be informal hierarchies of “leaders” gaining rankings among their peers by oppressing those who fail to suck up or fight back. The school brings up doubly pathological conformists, who are accustomed to endure the oppression of both teachers and peers. Such people cannot grow up free, and the people who send their children to schools will never be free!

I’m not advising you to give up formal education for your children, but it’s definitely worth considering other options than school. For example, over home education, after which the child receives exactly the same certificate. Anticipating comments about the need for socialization, I will note in advance that the sports section + hobby groups will help here much better than sitting your child with a randomly selected set of children, among which there will be outright gopota. The attitude will always be friendlier where there is a common goal and desire than where there is only coercion from the common. Among the compromise options are private schools with a client-oriented approach, and individual tutors. And may forced schools be a thing of the past, just as the twelve-hour day, slavery, and child labor are gone. Once having learned to read, each person chooses what exactly he is interested in. Based on this, he can build his life without imposed prejudices.

School is a dull and stupid occupation in 2022. Is this true or not?

Hello, ladies and gentlemen, today I want to talk about school education in Russia and why it is bad. It won’t be easy, but I’ll try. At first I wanted to shove research into the article, all sorts of ratings, but then I realized that the same PISA estimates were somewhat behind the reality.

Many students think that school is useless crap. Many adults, years later, recognize the rightness of schoolchildren, others begin to “defend” education, believing that the school gave them something.

I’ll point it out right away: I don’t think the school is worth guano, it was definitely useful, but at the same time it was possible to get more useful knowledge. I declare responsibly: the school is seriously behind the times and does not correspond to current realities.

Why elementary and secondary schools are useless in their current state

I tell you right away: the problem is global. The US authorities, for example, have acknowledged that their primary education is stagnating and serious reforms are needed. The authorities of Sweden and even Finland, which, by the way, consider primary and secondary education to be one of the best in the world, are also seriously considering how to improve it and make it more useful.

In Russia they yell about the best school education, although they don’t actually teach anything useful.

Loud statement? Let’s justify our point of view.

Let’s start with history

In general, almost all European countries at the beginning of the 20th century experienced similar processes. The current Russian school education originated at the beginning of the last century. For example, the prototype of modern education in the USSR appeared only in 1919 on the basis of a parochial school, respectively, inherited all the problems of that learning process. In Europe and the USA, the processes of origin were similar.

But let’s talk about Russia. The USSR finalized schools and managed to make a single standard for everyone only in 1934. And, by the way, the USSR was one of the first to bring school education to that level.

It was then that the modern process of schooling was born.

Oh, those happy faces of schoolchildren! You can immediately see how much science loves to gnaw at the granite!

Yes, there were similar schools before, but they absolutely did not correspond to the industrial era, which did not allow saturating the markets with qualified specialists.

It was the reform of education that made the USSR from an agrarian country to one of the leading industrial ones.

And this, perhaps, was one of the most outstanding achievements of the USSR. Without exaggeration. They managed to create an education system that could saturate the country with excellent personnel and bring it to a competitive level with the world market, even getting ahead in some places.

Similar processes took place in Western countries. As a result, the market has become more efficient, more scientists have appeared, and the dynamics of human development has increased significantly.

The world has become postindustrial. Computer technology has come into play. Of course, some underestimate the advent of computing technology, but this was a revolution that made it possible not only to obtain data, but to analyze such huge arrays that no one could handle.

Yes, the emergence of computers has become a real revolution! Humanity’s step forward, and a huge step at that.

Supercomputer Cray-1

We got the opportunity to work with huge amounts of information, to conduct detailed analytics of more complex events.

The advent of the computer has become a revolution for all areas of science without exception. And since the invention of the first transistor, mankind has received a greater cumulative amount of knowledge than in the entire history of mankind before that. And now I speak without exaggeration.

But there is one problem: education for the industrial age.

School subjects

We had many subjects:

  • mathematics;

  • Russian;

  • literature;

  • physics;

  • chemistry;

  • geometry;

  • music;

  • fine arts;

  • life safety basics;

  • natural science developed into biology;

  • history;

  • social science.

In general, you will get tired of listing, but the fact remains that such a number of items does not make a person the owner of wide knowledge. It doesn’t get smarter either, because bare knowledge without practice is useless.

Our brain is like a computer. He has a short-term memory (something like a RAM), which perceives information “here and now”, and there is a long-term one, which remembers for a longer period (hard disk).

Our memory works in a peculiar way. To remember something for a long time, you need to constantly apply this something.

Conditionally learned to play the guitar for about six months, then quit for 3 years, as a result, it is easier for us to remember some things, but muscle memory, as well as some of the knowledge, has already gone. If you quit the game for 10 years, it will be even harder to restore skills.

With theoretical knowledge, things are even worse. Everything that we do not need in practice, the brain does not consider important information and “rubs” in order to make room for more important information.

Judging by research, our brain only holds the basis needed to quickly restore lost skills. For example, humanists, remember what quadratic functions are? What is an infinitely decreasing geometric progression? Well, let’s simplify: what is a geometric progression?

Mathematicians, what books of Tolstoy do we remember? What about criticism of Belinsky? What’s from history? Geography? Remember Social Science? What is the Lorentz Force?

Yes, someone will remember something, but the fact is that I didn’t need to know if crabs grow shells or not, and that was in biology class. I completely forgot about chemistry. And many other people, probably, too.

Our brain does not keep useless information in our heads. Like a hard drive, a limited amount of data can be crammed into the brain. That is why we do not have detailed memories of childhood, especially of an early age, for the same reason we forget everything that we do not use on an ongoing basis.

So far they are happy with the school

And now about the school program. It is insanely stretched, the first 2 classes are almost identical, a lot of repetition of the same materials. To be honest, the program of the first five classes can be easily reduced to 3, and the high school program can also be cut by a couple of years.

Yes, repetition is the mother of learning, this is how the school tries to consolidate knowledge.

The problem is that this knowledge, which the school stubbornly tries to hammer in, will fly out of the head after it. It is enough to go through the tops, to study what we will use on an ongoing basis:

  • Russian;

  • reading;

  • arithmetic.

Everything else is from the evil one. Of course, now fans will fly in to say that at school they are trying to develop skills as multifaceted as possible, to give the amount of information that will allow them to choose any profession in the future.

But no. Here I also have bad news: a lot of knowledge is given, but they do not differ in breadth. Rather, some directions take away time from schoolchildren for what they might like more.

Let’s face it: is there a philosophy at school? Maybe it will be more useful than literature? What about the economy? Why not study it? Wouldn’t psychology be more useful than biology? Why do we study exactly those subjects that are in the program, are they more useful than other sciences?

Sciences – a huge amount. And those subjects that are in the school curriculum, even from the point of view of practicality, do not look more useful than other areas. And the study of material that is useless for a student will not make him smarter, but rather instill a dislike for learning.

We were stuffed with useless knowledge!

The world has seriously changed. There is such a huge amount of knowledge and directions in it that it will not work to cover even a few inches. This completely devalues ​​school knowledge, because all subjects in it are required. And there is nothing to choose from.

Conditionally, the child loves mathematics, physics, chemistry. Biology does not rest against him at all, but he is forced to learn it. Or maybe he would like to take up the study of human physiology instead of biology?

Someone likes to read science fiction, but is forced to read Tolstoy. The third does not like work, but he has to go to it. Why does a person need to know how to use a planer? For example, I did not like sharpening something on the machine, nor did I like to make stools. But he loved woodcarving.

Such a system has become due to the fact that earlier it was simply unrealistic to get systematized knowledge somewhere other than school. There were no courses yet (at best, you could find some kind of circle), the Internet, and also accessible textbooks.

And they tried to shove everything and more into the students, because then they simply won’t be able to find the information.

Now almost any knowledge with comments, explanations and other things is in the public domain, respectively, the current format of education no longer has a sacred meaning.

Firstly, all lessons in the format of “lectures” can be reduced to a simple video recording, and questions can be asked later, in a practical lesson. And even prepare something like F.A.Q., where there will be answers to typical questions.

Secondly, children should be given the right to choose subjects. Make basic ones that instill vital skills, for example, the Russian language, which will be responsible for the development of language knowledge and reading skills, an initial mathematics course, which will provide an opportunity to obtain the level of mathematics necessary for everyday tasks. Social science at the level of superficial knowledge of the laws and regulations of the state. And also in parallel to conduct a career guidance course, which will explain how the modern economy works, what professions exist, what are the pros and cons of each direction.

And then you need to be able to choose a set of items that are interesting! That is, a separate block of subjects for those who decided to delve into the physics and mathematics direction, a separate block for those who decided to go into the humanities, for those who decided to go into medicine – the third block.

Typical smart guy

But now some smart guy will object: “What if the student makes the wrong choice? Suddenly he doesn’t like biology, he wants to go into mathematics. Or, on the contrary, will a mathematician decide to go into biology?

Eh, our whole life is a path of continuous mistakes. And the child should be given the right to change direction at any time. But he will have to deal with the consequences of his decision himself.

Would you like to study mathematics? Let him catch up with the program. It looks difficult, but in practice, this option is much easier than trying to shove all the game that is in the current program into the student.

Therefore, the program should be seriously reduced. Let’s first remove useless items: life safety, labor, physical education. I do not argue that in the OBZh they are taught to provide first aid, to wield a planer or something else at work, and phys-ra is useful for the body. These are good electives, but there is nothing to do in the school curriculum for such subjects.

Let’s add history here, because this is a very subjective subject, given that history is written only by the winners. Let’s leave it as an elective, that is, at will.

We are removing computer science, anyway, the level of teachers does not even correspond to the knowledge of modern schoolchildren. We also send fine arts, all kinds of Orthodoxy lessons there. And now we have already won 8-12 hours a week. In today’s world, these items are optional.

Remove repetitions from the program, change its feed! Oops! What am I talking about?

Problems of presentation of material at school

Only axioms around! The school curriculum teaches us to take everything on faith. For example, in Finland, schools have a simpler task: to teach them to think. At first, they don’t even give grades. As far as I remember, there are no grading systems until the 6th grade.

Our task is to cram a lot of information without even explaining where it came from, why it is so and not otherwise.

I remember asking at the lesson why it is impossible to divide by zero. I was really interested. In response, he received: “Because it is impossible!”.

Okay, okay, shut up!

I found the answer in books, popular science literature. But it was still a shame, because my question did not imply anything bad. Then I was really wondering why, when multiplied by zero, we get zero, and division is generally taboo!

When I was arguing with a teacher of literature that “classics” differs from modern literature in terms of level like a steam locomotive from a modern express train in terms of speed, then they sculpted me a delicious deuce.

Nobody cares about your opinion, you were given information without explaining any principles, learn it. It is not necessary to think, the party has thought for you.

In fact, this is the main problem of our education. It works according to the old principle: to cram as much as possible. Such an approach can improve erudition, but can it be made smarter? Unlikely.

No one in school teaches you to work with sources, analyze information, search for it. But the skills of information search and analytics are now much more important than just knowledge.

Times are different now, and schoolchildren have changed a lot. Some say that the school gives a breadth of views and skills, but the fact is that the amount of knowledge humanity has now is such that in 11 years of school you do not acquire even a tenth of the knowledge that is really needed for life. And from the general knowledge of mankind you do not get even a thousandth of a percent.

Let’s be honest, how fast can you learn something right now if you need to? I think a year or two.

And at school the program is deliberately stretched out, because it is built on hammering theoretical knowledge into the head. And a person, with rare exceptions, remembers only in practice. That is, in order to study mathematics, it must be applied, but not in the abstract, in the style of “Vasya has 5 apples, Petya has 3”, but on specific tasks. Show the brain that the knowledge gained is applied and useful in life.

In fact, now it is worth giving work, and in the process of its implementation, help with theory. That is, to teach the basics of different professions. For example, by studying programming, you can pull up mathematics well, and you can also pull up mathematics by performing tasks related to the economy.

In this way one can learn any profession. For example, to give a child a try in journalism, which will teach the Russian language.

In terms of literature: read what you want. Despite the fact that I myself have read at least 1,500 books, most likely even noticeably more, I do not consider literature to be a wildly useful subject. It’s very individual. Some people like poetry, some like prose, some like fantasy, others like satire.

Literature is a separate topic altogether. Ours, as well as foreign classics, write for the most part for those people who have already managed to “feel” life. Schoolchildren are not interested in Tolstoy or Gogol. They still do not understand what is happening on the pages of their books.

In addition to school subjects, there are a lot of other interesting areas that develop no worse than school, and give no less benefits.

Modern education requires serious updating. Especially in terms of the presentation of the material. After all, what is the use of knowledge that is not kept in the head? How was Kievan Rus formed? What processes led to its formation, what were the prerequisites?

I think only a person who is interested in history can answer these questions. And if you liked to mount electrical appliances more?

The fact of the matter is that knowledge is acquired more efficiently when it is of interest to a specific person. I don’t like sushi or rolls and I can’t appreciate all the delights of Japanese cuisine, but I really like kebabs and shawarma.

Also with knowledge, you need to give a basis + according to interests. Schoolchildren should not be stuffed against their will with literature, geography, biology, etc.

Necessary knowledge + interest club is much more effective. Yes, it’s harder to organise, harder to track, but it will produce a better and more educated generation.

And now about the nuances.

Funding

Our market is not saturated with good teachers, because there are simply no people willing to work for food. Teaching is a difficult job, and incredibly difficult. You know, I remember back on Teacher’s Day, when we, high school students, were assigned to teach children from elementary grades, we began to understand that school is Hell not only for schoolchildren, but also for teachers.

The only way that helped to calm down a junior school student was when he came up and said that after school I would catch and beat him. But, you know, that’s not how things work.

It is frankly boring for schoolchildren to sit half a day at school, for children with perseverance it is very bad, and they prefer to receive knowledge in a playful way. Listening to the mournful speech of the teacher is akin to torture.

Where will teachers come from who will be absorbed in the thought of work, the desire to go to it, when all the thoughts are that they are already tired of checking the same type of homework, and also that in the middle of the month there will be nothing to feed themselves, children and a cat .

Okay, the salaries of teachers in Moscow are still normal in some places, in the Moscow Region they are noticeably worse, in the regions they are deplorable.

Teachers have to work in several shifts, in addition to lessons, extra-curricular activities, home inspections, they also have to fill out a bunch of papers and reports. In fact, teachers only have time to work and get a little sleep.

And if earlier I hated the evil teachers who completely discouraged me from studying.

Sit down, two!

Now I understand them. Yes, it used to be that they put two only because I have bad handwriting, accompanying this deuce with the phrase: “But before we wrote with a pen, you can’t even use a pen!”.

Now I take a pen in hand only if I need to sign. Calligraphy and calligraphy became unnecessary rudiments. I think paper will die out very soon.

Yes, I got a bad mark if I couldn’t figure out how to solve a problem right away. And the teachers, who simply weighed me in two ways, completely repulsed the desire to learn. Why waste time, learn something, if for any mistake you get two, and then, by the end of the quarter, you will be extended to three, so as not to spoil the reporting?

Yes, it was not a gift, absurd, restless, asking uncomfortable questions. I was avenged for this by lowering my grades. For example, for two mistakes in an essay I got a troiban, an excellent student – 4.

I used to hate my teachers for this, now I understand that they had neither the physical nor the moral strength to look for an approach to the students. And any schoolchild who cannot sit still was a curse for them, which they tried to calm down by any available means.

Many schoolchildren have the same problem now. They are bored, boring. Teachers who live on a penny are already morally burnt out and are not ready to teach in an interesting way.

For example, we had a wonderful historian. He spoke about all historical events in such a way that everyone listened without exception. He deliberately incited controversy, started discussions, forced to look at historical events from different points of view.

And everyone was interested. Unfortunately, he was the exception to the rule. I went to him on the subject with pleasure. Many others had to force myself to go.

Boring program, boring teachers, lots of useless items. All this is intertwined in the fact that for schoolchildren the educational process seems to be the most dull event in their life.

And teachers welcome only perseverance, diligence, so that they eat what they give. An interesting educational process is a problem that forces not just to retell the textbook, but to strain the convolutions, argue, convince, explain. And the tired and impoverished people, in fact, had no strength left.

Calling, but I also want to live normally!

In principle, the distinguished Prime Minister has already explained about the vocation. But the fact is that the vocation to “teach” is not only not normally paid, but also has little to do with studying now.

Teachers have other problems: reports, keeping electronic diaries, useless papers. The educational process has not been of interest to anyone for a long time, respectively, less and less forces are being put into it.

To be honest, in a poorly paid job, even a very interesting one, you burn out very quickly, because other everyday problems fall on you, eating up all your moral strength.

So, teachers, forgive me for those rays of hatred that I used to send. I didn’t have enough life experience to understand you, to sit quietly and enjoy even the crumbs of information that you give.

The current system is unable to teach effectively. Not only is there no individual approach, without which it is difficult to teach children anything, there are not even specialists who can turn the current educational process into an interesting event.

Lack of development

School education should change dramatically, but what do we see? The whole educational process turned into training:

I got into this rubbish when it was still an experiment (I really wanted to write another word, consonant). Yes, there were controls, sometimes there were tests. But not so often. In fact, all this was a test of knowledge …

… But the situation took on a funny twist. Children, instead of accumulating and accumulating knowledge, began to prepare simply for tests and controls. Everything accumulated splashed out on them, and then flew out of their heads completely.

And the same with the Unified State Examination and the OGE. I don’t really remember the school curriculum anymore. It didn’t work for me for the most part. And most of my friends too.

So these tests, which are mandatory for admission to any higher educational institution, do not reflect any real knowledge.

They are also conducted in such a way that the student experiences real stress. Let’s put it this way, the exam looks like this:

Well, the differences are minimal

Everything is under supervision, there are cameras everywhere, a step to the left, a step to the right – execution. Go to the toilet only under supervision. Personal items and smartphones are prohibited.

I think many people imagine how stressful the situation will be for a student.

The most important thing is that after the exam everything flies out of your head, completely, because the brain does not like to keep useless data and prefers to throw it out of your head. In less than a couple of years, most of what you stubbornly studied for 11 years will disappear completely. Do you feel the smell of wasted time?

You will be able to quickly remember something if necessary, and you can return other things only by re-studying almost from scratch. But most of it will still be unnecessary. And the gaps will have to be filled in adulthood.

If you criticize – offer

To be honest, many bright minds of mankind are now struggling with the reform of education. They consider an individual approach to be the most effective: to teach a person what he is personally interested in, the format of educational institutions is considered the best option to replace it with distance learning, which will allow you to receive any lessons from teachers that you like more. And to confirm knowledge with the help of intermediate tests.

There are even those who believe that it is worth confirming only the necessary knowledge, leaving the rest as an elective and periodically communicating with the student in order to simply find out what he has studied and what knowledge he has received.

Yes, adherents of Soviet education, which “provides an incredible breadth of knowledge, as well as extremely useful information,” of course, will not agree that most of the useless program should be reduced to the basis and given only what a person needs, and the rest should be provided by interest.

For example, it is very important to know where the Neva or Volga flows into.

I wonder if they manage to fill vacancies with normal specialists?

Yes, I know where these rivers flow, but does that knowledge make me a surveyor? Smart? In fact, only erudite. But even without these rivers, I have a lot of useless information in my head.

Some comrades can even carry a complete blizzard.

Fortunately, there is someone to besiege such clever people

Secondary and higher education have different goals. It’s just that now universities have begun to gradually throw garbage out of the program. For example, why would an engineer need a history lesson? Okay, let’s leave it for later, higher education is better considered as part of a separate material.

In pursuit!

And now let’s talk about the current state of primary and secondary education. Let’s start from the beginning.

It should give a general idea of ​​the world. That is, at this stage we begin to acquire the skills necessary for life, a little mathematics, a little languages, and attention should also be paid to the social structure, to explain what work is and why the world works this way. We get only the basis.

Secondary education should already provide more information about the world around, taking into account the interests of the student. Is your soul for music? We are preparing for it. Do you like basic sciences? Go ahead with the song.

Let’s be honest, we learned a lot at school. Both biology and computer science. What difference does it make if, instead of wasting time on this nonsense, you would devote more time to programming or philosophy, which you loved very much as a child?

You put yourself in a class for self-development, and let the student choose what to teach. More benefits, at the same time and interest will appear. Will you not study? If the child does not want to study, then it will not be so.

The format of “schools” is already outdated, for each subject it is necessary to allocate a course that the student can choose himself and pass at the speed with which he is comfortable. Somewhere there will be plugs, somewhere, on the contrary, it will grab faster.

All information should be publicly available, for example, school materials, where the teacher explains something, and can consult at the time appointed by the teacher, respectively, ask questions, receive answers, and also see what questions other students ask.

Along the way, introduce milestone controls, on which the student will be able to confirm that he studied, passed this course.

And now the most important thing: practice. Knowledge without practice is nothing! Most people still know arithmetic only because they are forced to calculate on their own. But I doubt that the majority is now able to even extract the discriminant.

Therefore, we fix any knowledge in practice. Concrete work. For example, does a child want to become a programmer? Let him write an engineering calculator that will calculate formulas automatically? Planning to become an engineer? Let him choose the right material for the bike frame.

You can come up with practical tasks that will not require too deep knowledge, but on a concrete example they will demonstrate that knowledge is useful.

Many students are tormented by the question “why am I studying this?”. Practice will clearly demonstrate why this process was started. And teach the child to work together.

What if they want to become farmers?

Obviously, Watson!

The whole school curriculum without practice is useless. You can lie about the breadth of knowledge, incredible erudition, etc. to me. Do not lie to yourself, only practice gives skills. And the child will remember this matter much better. And working on something will be much more interesting than just wiping a chair.

Yes, I am not an expert in this field, but I have seen for myself that practice allows you to learn knowledge faster and better than theory. And some researchers claim the same.

Children should not be punished for their mistakes. They learn from mistakes, they should not be afraid, on the contrary, let them admit it, and then, when you normally and humanly explain why a mistake was made and how to “prevent” it, the child will remember an order of magnitude better than if he is afraid to make a mistake, so as not catch a deuce in the diary.

And lastly: completion of secondary education. We do not value secondary specialized education, proud guys with useless university diplomas proudly turn up their noses and call the guys birdies.

In fact, most people with towers are employed in professions where a tower is not really needed. Does a sales manager need a tower? What about low power electrician? Or without 6 years of university you will not be able to learn elementary safety rules and Ohm’s law?

Precisely because we need a tower for any sneeze, and even the last fool who simply visits couples and brings in anyone who needs it can get an education, higher education has depreciated and McDonald’s is oversaturated with “specialists” with honors.

But I like the approach with the lyceums, which are starting to prepare a specialist. This approach, for example, is practiced in Finland, where education is considered one of the best.

In our country secondary specialized education is not valued, but in Europe, for example, most people prefer to receive it, because it hurt both for higher education and allows you to immediately start working in a certain specialty.

Finns also prefer lyceums, as you immediately prepare for the specialty that you plan to do.

Conditionally, we have a civil engineer. This is a specialist with higher education, who is engaged in large-scale work: supervision, design. But there is a position even younger: a construction technician who manages the team directly, for this a secondary specialized education is enough.

It is much more efficient not to prepare for the Unified State Examination in grades 10-11, but to study as a civil engineer, gain a couple of years of work experience, and then go to a civil engineer. This is how normal education is built, it allows you not to waste time, but to master real activities, without wasting time on nonsense and a set of useless erudition.

Knowledge without practice is nothing. And from an early age, it is worth inducing children to practice, because in the process of solving applied problems they will gain more knowledge and remember everything better.

Cut down the redundant, optimize learning, providing knowledge not for erudition, but for practical application, focus on practice. This will greatly improve the quality of education.

You will need erudition only if you decide to go to perform on the show “What? Where? When?”. In other cases, there is little benefit from it.

The current school is hell, boring and useless. And it’s time to admit that our education is in stagnation, and schoolchildren will call the current level of education crap. Approximately 5 out of 11 years are wasted, and after leaving school, a huge number of gaps in knowledge and absolute unsuitability for the outside world are revealed.

I’ll be honest: from school, only mathematics and Russian were useful to me. I acquired all the necessary skills for work in adult life, being engaged in self-study. That’s all there is to know.

This needs to be changed. Schools are no longer able to provide quality education. They must change. In fact, they should have been a long time ago.

Finally

Yes, the current level of education can be called low and even useless, because it is based on a rudimentary approach, practically does not teach you to think independently, and also has no practical basis.

School tasks, which are nowhere more abstract, do not allow children to feel the benefits of the process, and such lessons as work, physical education are not needed at all. The world has changed, but education is left over from the industrial age.

Calling the school useless shit, hell, nonsense, of course, is not worth it. So far, this is the best option we have. People have not yet made a worthy mass alternative due to the fact that there are brakes in power who are not ready to carry out not just a reform, but a revolution in education.

So, the changes will be gradual, but for now, children will have to learn useful and really necessary skills in adulthood, when there will be no heaps of homework, stupid lessons.

You know, it seems to me that explaining to a child what a loan or mortgage is, as well as about the labor market, will be much more useful than a course in biology or inorganic chemistry.

On this I say goodbye to you, I wish you success and a decent education!

Training, society

Why nothing? ”, Andrey Shalaev-liters

© Andrey Shalaev, 2021

Preface

Son : “Mom, I do not want to go to school …”

9064 0656 : “Son, how is it? You are the principal”

I never liked our school. Ours is any ordinary general education school. The one you can see from the window.

I studied in the 70s. I had no problems with academic performance, as well as the pleasure of the learning process. It is all the more surprising that after some time I became a teacher. It was in the same school in which he once studied himself. Understanding came later: I did not agree that studying at school is uninteresting and useless for most children. And I wanted to change it.

Ten years of my practice in a public school fell on the 90s. I had a chance to work in several – and not only teach, but also manage, and generally start two new schools from scratch. Searches and experiments yielded no results. It was not possible to come up with a new school that would become a beloved and useful home for every student and every teacher, in which one would like to study and work oneself. I had to leave the practice at the public school. But not searching…

Observations show that all the changes in mass school did not make it better. The school continues to degrade, and pedagogical science no longer hides its impotence. Continuing our own search for the best school, observing, researching and conducting experiments, together with a team of like-minded people, we have accumulated enough practical experience. Its development and mass application can radically change the situation and solve all the problems of the school without creating new ones.

It’s time to talk about it. That is why this book was born. It contains twenty-three short essays, the sequential reading of which reveals the essence of the proposed changes.

Who is this book for? First of all, for teachers and school leaders. Our educational system is still holding on – thanks to tradition. They help her to survive, but they do not save her from falling into the abyss, much less allow her to develop. Changes are needed, and another teacher is needed. Most teachers work at school the way they were taught at the university. Without getting a result, they invent something of their own or copy the successful experience of their colleagues. The goal is to make every student successful. Does not work. And the further you go, the less it gets.

It wasn’t my idea that if we don’t change anything, then we’ll get what we always got. This book offers a completely different concept of the school teacher, which, in my opinion, is the salvation for our school. I want teachers, while reading this book, to try on a new hypostasis and admit the thought that they still have to change. Maybe not as written in the book, but without changing the role of the teacher, the school cannot be saved.

This book is also for parents of schoolchildren. The increased conflicts of parents with the school do not help the children and the entire educational process. Their reason is still in the same imperfection of our school. In the book, this imperfection is considered in detail: it becomes obvious that the teacher is not the enemy of the child, that the teacher plays on the same team with schoolchildren and their parents. It is only necessary to change the emphasis in the organization of the learning process in order to always achieve harmony and the expected result. I want parents to read this book and learn to see the teacher as a friend.

This book is also for students and future applicants of pedagogical universities, who tomorrow will replace today’s teachers. Studying classical pedagogy and traditional didactics, it will not be out of place for them to tune their minds to a free from any templates, perhaps an alternative and even radical vision of the future of school education.

This book is also for those who design, shape and standardize the very future of school education. The thoughts, ideas and arguments presented here are simple, easy to understand and apply. And simplicity has always been the first sign of the right decision.

I wish you useful reading!

General education

From school works :

“Sons came to know it”

9000 9000 9000

9000 9000

9000 9000

9000 9000

9000, we all would like to have. Then describe what we actually have. It can be vice versa. The main thing is to see the difference, because it is with it that you need to work, it will have to be eliminated.

First, let’s define what a comprehensive school is.

It is clear that a school is an educational institution or an institution for general education. The question is what to call general education. From this, not only its content will be built, but also the structure of the entire work of the school.

Let’s start from the global goal of education – the preservation of civilization through the transfer of accumulated experience to a new generation.

There are several meanings for the word “education” in the explanatory dictionary. We will be primarily interested in education as a learning , process acquiring knowledge about something and the ability to apply this knowledge. Considering education in this definition, we answer the question “HOW to teach?”. (The word “teach” is not quite suitable for us, but let’s leave it for now).

In the second definition, “education” is presented as a set of knowledge and skills acquired as a result of training. In this meaning of the word, we will look for the answer to the question “WHAT to teach?”.

Of the two questions, “HOW to teach?” and “WHAT to teach?”, the question “How?” is the first not by chance. He’s in charge here. For if we do not answer question is like , then what’s the difference, what we don’t teach?

Now let’s clarify what kind of education we will consider general.

General education is interpreted by the dictionary as education not limited to any specialization. General education gives the student knowledge of the basic sciences about nature, society, man; understanding of the basic patterns of the surrounding world. Forms a worldview, develops cognitive abilities, develops the necessary for each person learning skills and practical skills for continuing education.

A product of general education – willingness to make a conscious choice of profession and receive professional education in order to actively participate in the life of society.

If we look at other meanings of the word “general”, then we can somewhat expand the understanding of the term “general education”.

Meaning “ covering all, covering all; mandatory “also applies to school education and is even enshrined in federal law.

Or another one: “ same, same, same ”. Again, about school education, because the world around us can, of course, be perceived differently by different people, but it is the same for everyone, and all the differences are only in perception. This is the meaning of the word “general”, on which the country’s unified school educational space is based today.

But the most capacious and interesting meaning of the word “general” in relation to education is “ uniting all, many “. This is the philosophy of general education. And here it is impossible not to see a deep meaning in the coincidence of the words GENERAL and SOCIETY. General education is also general because it makes us society . To live together and understand each other, we must have something in common, the same for everyone. What unites us, starting from what, we can build COMMUNICATION (another meaning) and achieve UNDERSTANDING through communication. We have always been and will be different, but for peaceful coexistence there must be at least something that we all agreed on.

With regard to school, there is one more, third question: “WHO to teach?”. And it’s not funny.

Here and below we will talk about the mass school, that is, public school, intended if not for everyone, then for the absolute majority. This means that children with a wide variety of abilities and abilities will study nearby in a mass school – from children with special educational needs to gifted ones. Our answer to the question of who to teach in a mass school has already been found – EVERYONE.

This answer does not deny special schools for especially gifted children and for children with disabilities. It’s just that in special schools there may be other answers to questions, how to teach and what to teach . Let’s deal with the majority first.

Expected result

From school essays : “It was quiet all around, as if everyone had died out … What a beauty!”

School is something that each of us encounters in our lives, and more than once. And this is what has a significant role in everyone’s life. When systemic problems arise in a public school, they worry everyone. Or almost everyone.

I have been following publications and speeches on the topic of school education for a long time. Most posts and channels on the Internet about the problems of the modern school, especially comments on them, at best “let off steam”. It seems that this is their only use. The summary of most publications is as follows:

“Everything is bad!!!”

“Officers are to blame (ministers, directors, teachers, parents, children, liberals, …)”

“Aaah, we’re all going to die!” or: “Well, when, finally?!”

In the comments, the following is often added:

“The fool himself.

In professional communities, the topic of school reform is also drowning in an ocean of emotions. The authors and participants in the discussions do not bother to take responsibility for school education and propose or do something. It is not surprising when even pedagogical science signs for impotence. A couple of years ago, in the TV show “Meanwhile” on the “Culture” channel, they talked about the problem of low motivation of schoolchildren to study. Two academicians of the Russian Academy of Education and a professor at the Moscow State Pedagogical University announced to the whole country: “As for the motivation for learning in the conditions of a mass school, the answer was not found anywhere. This is an open question, we don’t know what to do about it. Nobody knows what to do with it.” Like this…

I am glad that there are still alive, coming from the main meanings of the publication on the topic of the modern school. For example, Dima Zitser’s book “(not) Why (not) go to school?”. There are four questions in the title at once to answer one main question – what should the school be like?

A wonderful book. For the most part, its content should not become a revelation for teachers, it is kind of like an introduction to the profession. But I would still recommend it to school teachers, because it inspires, restores the significance of the profession and allows you to look at the educational process (especially in terms of relationships with a child) in a new, more sensible way. Separately, I note the language of presentation – real Russian, understandable and native. For parents of toddlers and schoolchildren, this book by Dima is just a godsend. And for me, something else is important in it.

Attempts to establish a mass school have been made actively since the end of the last century. And all innovations come down to changing the education system without changing anything, but only supplementing. Dima is already good in that he proposes to revise the dogmas for their compliance with reality. It’s like in physics: when the results of new observations do not agree with the classical theory, it is useless to introduce correction factors. If a theory has ceased to work in new conditions, another one is needed. And our theorists in pedagogy shrug their shoulders: “We don’t know what to do with it.” As a result, officials run the show in schools. There is nothing wrong with this, except for the result.

In fairness, it should be noted that the crisis in education is worldwide. And Russia is far from the last place here. However, this is not a reason to be proud. Knowing how things are with us, it is worth worrying about the future of all mankind. And not so much to worry as to get together, unite and, rolling up your sleeves, finally clear out these Augean stables.

In fact, today’s mass school has only one problem – the school does not give the expected result. And that’s all that’s wrong with the school. To solve the school problem, you need:

1) pinpoint this most expected result;

2) remove obstacles and apply tools to ensure that each school achieves this result.

Let’s start with the first one. Let’s describe what we expect from an ideal public school:

Every student achieves success in the school.

Tutors are not in demand, the school copes completely.

Homework is not practiced, all work is done at school.

Evaluation of the student by the teacher is prohibited.

Each student is engaged in an individual trajectory.

The level of education of a schoolchild is determined not by the number of years he spent in school, but by the number and depth of subjects mastered by him during this time.

The educational process is fully equipped with the necessary materials and tools, the teacher does not make anything, does not compose or buy anything for the lesson.

The work of a teacher is measured by the success of the students and nothing else.

The teacher has a good salary and does not need part-time jobs.

The authority of a school teacher in society is generally recognized to be high, only the best are allowed into the profession.

The participation of parents in the school education of the child is reduced to “feed and clothe”, organize a healthy life and good rest.

The best school is the one next to your home.

This list is already enough to completely solve all the problems of school education and upbringing of children.

It’s up to the small thing – to honestly look at what we have today.

“Unlearned” schoolchildren

Son : “Mom, are we going to the sea this year?”

Mom : “Your tutors will go to the sea this year, dunce!”

It is not necessary to be a specialist in pedagogy or work in a school, it is enough to have a schoolchild and look through the Zen tape to understand that everything is not going well at school today. In a mass secondary school.

If there is some upward movement with the construction, repair and re-equipment of public schools, then with the results of schooling it is a complete disaster. The majority of mass school students do not master the content of education and graduate unprepared to make our lives better. A significant part of the remaining schoolchildren are trying to compensate for the costs of the school with the money of their parents in the army of tutors.

The latter appeared and have been multiplying since more than half of the students SUDDENLY stopped “doing well” in school. To tell the truth, they did not achieve success in their studies before, only no one diligently noticed this. The substitution of concepts helped: success replaced with academic performance , and success is not needed for academic performance, just a “three” is enough. And if you are a convenient student, then the teacher will always find something to put a C grade on. From here came “three we write – two in the mind.” The teachers understood everything, but such a betrayal suited everyone.

The “Scam of the Century” came to light with the advent of the GIA. Nobody wanted to be extreme. A confrontation arose in society: teachers became bad for everyone, in response, the category of “unteachable” schoolchildren appeared.

Some time ago, I had a serious quarrel with a venerable school principal. With a tenacity worthy of another application, he convinced me that not all schoolchildren can be taught anything, that there are “unteachable”. As the main argument, a rich personal experience of pedagogical and managerial work at school was put forward. I insisted that any child admitted to school can and should be successful in learning. It didn’t come to a fight then (there weren’t those times, and it’s somehow non-pedagogical), but everyone remained with his own.

I think there are few practicing teachers today who would support me in this dispute. Many, from the teacher to the Minister of Education, have come to believe that it is impossible to teach everyone and everyone, that there are children who cannot be taught. A convenient position – you can make parents responsible for their children’s school problems: “Either force your children to study, or teach them yourself. And we will teach only those who want and who are able.”

The idea of ​​the existence of “unteachable” schoolchildren explains (and in fact justifies) the lack of results of schooling. More precisely, he tries to justify it, because it does not correspond to reality.

The same teacher, when he “puts on the cloak” of a tutor after working at school, he also deals with “unteachable” schoolchildren (“a trained” tutor is not needed). And he succeeds one on one! So the student is not here. This means that the teacher and the school cannot teach him when he works in a lesson as part of a class. Therefore, the problem is in the school, in the methods used by it.

Domestic pedagogical science agrees with this. Despite their unwillingness today to offer a solution to school problems, scientists openly recognize “unteachable” schoolchildren as a “pedagogical marriage”.

I wouldn’t blame teachers for this marriage. Teachers are also hostages of our school education system, which has never guaranteed the success of every student. And there has always been tutoring, only more often it was group tutoring and was called “additional lessons.” Parents did not pay for these lessons, the school did not pay either. The teachers were extreme. But then both parents and the state treated teachers in a completely different way…

It is worth mentioning that despite the imperfection of the existing education system, almost every school has always had and still has teachers who are able to “pull” any student into ” solid three.” Exclusively on your charisma. They are held in high esteem, there is a queue for them, but there are very few of them, and they are not copied. This is the exception, not the solution.

A child’s learning disability and a student’s lack of motivation are two different but related problems. For every child who does not succeed in school, these two problems are present – together or separately. The schoolchild does not see them due to undeveloped consciousness, but the school sees, but does not know how to cope with them. And now he doesn’t know yet, when can cope with it and who should cope with it. Pedagogical science also has no answer, and this is not taught in pedagogical universities. What is the reason?

Every teacher, and even more so a scientist-teacher, was once a successful student. (If he had been unsuccessful, he would hardly have wanted and could have become a teacher). And a successful student is unaware of the problems that unsuccessful children face in learning. For the same reason, teachers of pedagogical universities do not know about these problems and university textbooks do not tell. Since the time of Jan Amos Comenius, there has been one answer – everything is the will of God. Isn’t it convenient? There is always someone to blame.

It’s time to stand up for God, he obviously has nothing to do with it…

Experienced teachers had the opportunity to observe that very often a lack of learning and a lack of motivation in a student are acquired precisely at school. A child comes to the first grade, as a rule, with a great desire to learn and does well. But then a strange thing happens: the student, to one degree or another, at one speed or another, begins to lose interest in learning and / or begins to “stupid”. What’s happening?

Today, one can often hear that the reason for the loss of motivation of students is the outdated content of education and its uselessness in the future life. Therefore, at school, you need to teach only what children are interested in and what can be applied right now, for example, robotics. This is the statement of dilettantes who in their time did not succeed in learning and therefore consider school subjects unnecessary. I will not dwell on the content of education now, we agreed to discuss it later. Let me just say that it is useless to “treat” the problem of schoolchildren’s motivation with computerization, robotics, projects, rearranging school furniture and other dances with a tambourine. All these measures are not able to influence the general educational motivation of the student. Let’s see why.

The main, if not the only, source of motivation is SUCCESS. Anyone who digs into their past and finds in their memory a situation of personal success can be convinced of this. Each failure to achieve success, on the contrary, reduces motivation.

The accumulated failures of the child in studies and in school communication with the voluntary or involuntary connivance of the teacher reduce the student’s motivation to zero. This does not happen immediately, but often happens already in elementary school. And when the teacher every time confirms the failure of the student with his assessment or mark, the motivation ends even faster.

Having lost motivation, the child begins to avoid learning. He gets distracted in class, tries not to be present at school whenever possible, and often gets sick. This does not pass without a trace – gaps in knowledge appear. And if these are gaps in basic knowledge, then further training becomes impossible. Here we come to unteachability.

Thus, schoolchildren’s lack of learning is the result of accumulated gaps in knowledge; gaps were the result of a loss of motivation to learn; motivation began to drop and decreased with each new failure in school. And this is the whole anatomy of learninglessness:

FAILURE → LOSS OF MOTIVATION → GAPS IN KNOWLEDGE → LEARNABILITY

This is the pattern when loss of motivation and learning disability go hand in hand. This is the worst option.

There is a lack of learning without loss of motivation, when a child works hard, but is “dumb” all the time. The root of the problem is there, in the first failures, perhaps even before school. Only the child turned out to be purposeful.

Finally, a child can see an example when someone, having not once succeeded in school, is perfectly settled in life, and even manages others. This child also decides to drop out of school: why, if you can not bother. But even here, in order to make such a decision, it is necessary to have your own failures at school.

Failure is the root cause of all problems. You can’t let a student fail. And what to do when it comes to unteachability? There is only one option – to return to the beginning, find that first failure that started it all, and deal with it, and then deal with all the other failures in order. There is no other way to beat learninglessness or loss of motivation.

It happens that the loss of motivation is not associated with failures and does not lead to learning disabilities. Here the child’s interest in learning disappears because learning is too easy. There are gaps in knowledge, but they do not prevent the student from “intuitively” and understanding new material. Such a child lacks complexity, he needs to be loaded.

The feasible success of each student in each lesson is the main task of the teacher. Nothing new, everything according to Vygotsky: the child must work in the zone of proximal development. Only Lev Semyonovich did not write about the obligatory success of a student. As a matter of course.

Each new success creates a motivation that supports and nourishes the movement towards the next success and new motivation. The main thing is not to miss failures, not to agree with them, to bring any and each one to success, to get a new portion of motivation in order to move on – to the next success. This is the only way to build learning. It doesn’t work otherwise. I know this, we did it, a little later I will talk about it.

But how can a teacher apply such a scheme at school, in the classroom, and for EVERY student?

Why do we need a school today? | PSYCHOLOGIES

Interview

Psychologies: You are like a collector who has the most informal schools in the world in his collection. Why do you need this? What is the purpose?

Alexander Murashev: I put myself two main questions: why do we need a school now and what is a good teacher today. They may seem stupid and funny, but when I asked myself them, I realized: I have no answer. And the Russian education system, it seems to me, is even afraid to ask them. But these questions are inevitable.

I am 31 years old, and the second half of my life, that is, the last 15 years, I observe how quickly everything changes. As a teenager, I used to rewind tape with a pencil on audio cassettes and pray for the DJ to spell the name of the artist correctly, and now I have any song I want to listen to on my phone. At the university, I sent notes to girls through my neighbors, and now I exchange messages with them in instant messengers and can contact anyone. When I was a teenager, I hunted for information, and the school was positioned as a place where teachers share sacred knowledge with us.

Teenagers do not understand why they spend long hours inside four walls, learning facts that they can find in a minute on the Internet

Today it is more difficult to protect yourself from information than to get it. Today’s teenagers don’t understand why they need to spend long hours in four dull walls, learning the facts that they find on the Internet in a few minutes – faster than teachers.

But if the school is no longer the place where we get knowledge, then what is it for at all? That’s what I want to understand. And I ask this question everywhere I go. More often I hear this answer: at school we get those skills that are passed only from person to person. For example, in Danish schools, children are taught to interact by dividing into groups to work together right during the lesson. This is not in our tradition – I remember well how the teachers said: “look in your notebook and don’t talk.” And here even the assessment is put one per group. If you want the highest score, work for the success of the team.

Orestad School in Denmark.

Was there an answer that surprised you?

I got it from Swedish Egalia. This is perhaps the most provocative of all European schools. Children are accepted there from the age of one to six years, and there is no separation by gender. Each child decides for himself whether he is a boy or a girl, what to do, what to play, and teachers treat everyone the same.

School is a place where a child learns to coexist with different, different children

Classes there are based on books, selected in a special way. For example, I saw a book about how different families are: a family with two mothers, or a childfree family. And children from a very early age develop an idea of ​​a multivariate world.

The teachers who work at Egalia answered my question in the following way: school is a place where a child learns to coexist with different, different children. And the task of the teacher is to help him in this. This approach surprised me, because for many of us the school was a place where we had to fight for ourselves, but here it’s the other way around: children are not suppressed, they are accepted by anyone. Where they end up is another matter. At the secondary level of education, there is no such school in Sweden.

What do the schools you visited have in common?

Almost all of them bring students as close as possible to real life. I remember, at my first school line, the teachers said that they would prepare us for adulthood. After that, I changed three schools, and in none I had the feeling that I was gaining knowledge that I could apply in practice.

That’s why I was so struck by, let’s say, the education system in Finland. In many schools there, ordinary subjects have been replaced by the study of phenomena. Every six weeks they go through a new topic. I was in a class on the wise use of natural resources. In fact, he combined several subjects at once: a foreign language, natural science, needlework. The children learned the English words reuse and recycling (reuse, recycling), and the teacher talked about saving resources and gave the following example: now you have washed your hands and dried them with a paper towel made of wood. What other way can you dry your hands to save the planet’s resources? The children immediately rushed to offer their options. Someone said: let’s sew cloth towels, and they will be reusable. And in the next lesson they were already sewing these towels.

Why did I like this approach? The fact that the child can immediately understand why he needs new knowledge, he sees how to use it in real life.

Orestad School in Denmark.

Which of the Russian schools is closest in design and implementation to those you have seen abroad?

Definitely, the “Orange” school of Dima Zitser. She makes me proud that I was born in the same city, St. Petersburg. “Orange” is a kind of Russian “Summerhill”. They have no grades, no homework, not a single decision is made there without the participation of children. “Orange” really prepares the child for adulthood – through complete freedom, decision-making experience, through equality in rights with teachers.

You spend from one day to a week in schools. Is this enough to understand how free and confident children feel there?

Of course, one day is not enough. But the eye manages to grab the key details. For example, in one Finnish school, children did not want to go outside during recess – it was so important for them to continue the work they had begun. And in the staff room, I noticed photographs of three diabetic children on the wall with detailed nutritional advice, a detail that is traditional for a private school, but not a public one.

In addition, I always try to communicate with children informally, talking to them alone, without teachers. This is enough to understand whether the school is successful or not. The ability of some 13-14-year-old teenagers to think and reason freely and deeply is amazing – talking with them is more interesting than with many of my peers.

The level of aggression in free schools is decreasing. Children are focused on cooperation, not rivalry

Or another example: I approach a seven-year-old Finnish girl, and she explains to me in perfect English that she is currently designing her needlework on the iPad, and at the same time keeps notes about what she likes about this work and what not. She told me all this on the fly, without any preparation.

By the way, there I also found the answer to a question that worries many adults: what will happen if we give children complete freedom? Will they destroy the school? Will endless fights and severe bullying begin? Will it all end like in William Golding’s Lord of the Flies? But my experience shows that everything is exactly the opposite: the level of aggression in free schools is decreasing. Children are focused on cooperation, not competition.

What criteria can be used to measure the quality of education in such schools?

Teachers there do not pay attention to grades, but to the development of personality, to the child’s self-acceptance, the development of his confidence. We will be able to talk about academic success with all certainty only when the children grow up. In the same “Apelsin” the oldest class so far is the seventh. Many of my acquaintances skeptically remark: “Let’s see how they pass the exam and fit into real life.”

Of course, no one has canceled exams, so in high school you have to find a compromise between the desire to develop the student’s personality, not to put pressure on him with the requirements of success and the need to comply with education standards.

School “Orange” by Dima Zitser.

How successful is this compromise?

School principals have told me that, for example, Danish students really have a more relaxed attitude towards learning than children from Asian countries. They may not be using their full potential. But most of them enter universities one way or another, which means they achieve some success.

The time of teachers is over, the time of coaches is now

Perhaps it helps that teachers in Danish and some Swedish high schools are becoming more coaches than teachers. In Denmark, before the recent reform, there was generally a specialist who helped high school students with pre-exam “logistics” and career guidance. For example, a teenager understood that he wanted to be a lawyer or an actor, and this person explained what subjects he needed to pull up, even if they were not at all interesting to him, and offered a training plan. Now this role is played by teachers.

In Sweden and Denmark, they told me so: the time of teachers is over, the time of coaches has come.

Do you agree with this idea?

Yesterday I was at the French school of information technology “42”, where students (albeit adults over 19 years old) learn programming on their own. In fact, this is a huge cool office where they sit at the “poppies” and work all day. True, they are obliged to help each other. There are no teachers there, because in the field of IT everything is changing rapidly and ideas about how “correct” quickly become outdated. All answers and solutions are found by students in independent work. As for an ordinary secondary school, in my opinion, the role of a teacher there is to be a navigator in the flow of information, to help find the necessary information, to distinguish true information from distorted and structure it.

Finnish school lessons.

And the teacher as an authoritative adult, it turns out, is no longer needed?

For myself, this question is very acute. Of course, the teacher is still important – as a role model. As a person who knows how to listen without judgment and inspire the child to believe in himself, in his ability to achieve a lot in the future.

Is it possible to get practical use from the knowledge that you have received while traveling to different schools and describing them in a book?

I don’t expect educators to read this book and start introducing the principles of free schools everywhere. But, according to my feelings, the school system will change. Many old schemes do not work. Children are overloaded with homework and are deadly tired. More and more parents are concerned about finding a good school where the child’s personality will not be corroded.

The book helps to learn about other methods of education, to expand your understanding of how differently you can build a learning trajectory, and this, I think, is useful for everyone.

What will be the final point of your trips?

I want to see education in all countries of the world, to understand the nuances of different systems. And still get answers to the questions, what is the school for now and what is a good teacher. However, the book may end even at the moment when I find the only school of my dreams, about which I will definitely understand that I myself want to study there.

AMERICA’S MOST ACCREDITED

We’re so proud!

Nationally only 10% of daycares are accredited – nearly 100% of our learning centers are. That’s a big difference,
and that means KinderCare kids are getting the very best. Here’s why.

SCHOOL-READY

What Learning Looks Like

Our talented early-childhood teachers set kids down the path toward becoming lifelong learners in a positive, safe, and nurturing environment.

Beachwood KinderCare Programs

Infant Programs (6 weeks–1 year)

Leaving your baby in someone else’s care is a big step. Everyone at our
centers—most importantly, our naturally gifted infant teachers—will work with
you to make sure the transition goes smoothly. When you step into our infant
classroom, you’ll see how much we want your infant to feel safe, loved, and
ready to explore their world.

Toddler Programs (1–2 Years)

Everything in our toddler classroom is designed for little explorers. That’s
because a lot is going on at this age. When your child is wandering all over the
place, that means they’re learning and discovering new things every day. We’ll
help them explore their interests (and find new ones!) as they play and learn.

Discovery Preschool Programs (2–3 Years)

This age is filled with so much wonder and curiosity. That’s why we offer a ton
of books and toys and bring artwork down to kids eye level. Children in
discovery preschool also begin to learn how we all work together in a
classroom. Simple math and science, pretend play, and group play help them
get used to a more structured school setting.

Preschool Programs (3–4 Years)

This age is all about expression, when kids really start to form their own ideas
about what they want to play and how they want to create. Every day in our
preschool classroom, your child will explore science experiments, create
artwork, and play pretend—all the skills needed for their big next step:
kindergarten!

Prekindergarten Programs (4–5 Years)

When you walk into one of our pre-K classrooms, you’ll see artwork and
writing displayed around the room. Labels are everywhere to help kids connect
letters with words. You’ll also see pictures on the walls that reflect the families
in our community. Your child will also deepen their knowledge in language,
math, science, Spanish, and social skills.

Before- and After-School Programs (5–12 Years)

You can count on us to provide reliable care for your school-ager while you’re
at work, with safe transportation from our center to your child’s school and
back! Whether your child wants to start a drama club, build a volcano, or
create a comic book, they will have a place to follow their dreams. Your child
will start and end the day with a whole lot of fun!

School Break Programs (preschool, prekindergarten, and school-age)

Winter break, spring break, summer break—when school’s out (but you still need to work), you
can count on KinderCare to provide a safe and supportive learning environment that’s focused
on fun. We welcome children ages 5–12 during school break times and make sure they have a
sensational, screen-free experience they won’t forget.

Participating Child Care Aware Center

KinderCare partners with Child Care Aware® of America to offer fee assistance for
Active Duty military families and flexible support to fit their needs when care at a Child
Development Center on the installation is not available.

Learning Adventures – Enrichment Program

Music Explorers™ (2 – 4 Years)

KinderCare families are already giving a standing ovation to our newest Learning
Adventures program: Music Explorers! Kids will learn to sing, move, listen, play
instruments, and even create their own tunes. Our original curriculum blends math,
science, social studies, literacy, and mindfulness (think yoga!) for a uniquely KinderCare
way of learning the foundations of music.

Phonics Adventures® (2 – 4 Years)

Learning how to read is a whole lot of fun at KinderCare! We help kids grow to love
books and words (and get ready for kindergarten) in our Phonics Adventures program.
From discovering the basics of vowels to practicing poetry, kids learn all about letters
and sounds in small-group lessons made just for their age group. (Bonus: Kids who
attend our phonics program are more prepared than their peers for school—and we
have the data to prove it.)

STEM Innovators (3-8 Years)

You’ve probably heard a lot about how important STEM education is for your child, but
what does that really mean? Our STEM Innovators program takes kids’ natural ability to
make sense of the world and applies it to robotics, chemistry, coding, geology, and
more. While your child experiments, they’ll discover how to use technology to do
amazing things!

Our Teachers

We’re the only company in early childhood education to select teachers based on natural talent. Being a great educator isn’t enough though.
KinderCare teachers are also amazing listeners, nurturers, boo-boo fixers, and smile-makers. Put more simply,
we love our teachers and your child will, too.

Meet just a few of our amazing KinderCare teachers!

A KINDERCARE TEACHER WITH

An Artist’s Heart

“My classroom is full of art!” says Mary Annthipie-Bane, an award-winning early childhood educator at KinderCare. Art and creative expression, she says, help children discover who they really are.

We put our best-in-class teachers in a best-in-class workplace. We’re so proud to have been named one of Gallup’s 37 winners of the Great Workplace Award.
When you put great teachers in an engaging center, your children will experience
an amazing place to learn and grow.

Family Stories

Don’t take our word for it. Hear what our families have to say about our amazing center!

  • “In my first visit to KinderCare, I was impressed by the friendly, positive, and open atmosphere of the center. Now, nearly two years later, I am greeted by this same vibe every day when I drop my girls off for school. The directors are engaged and approachable, often sharing with me something one of my daughters did that day before I even reach the classroom. The facilities offer a fun and safe place for exploration, with classrooms being transformed into farms, or forests, or even outer-space. The learning curriculum is outstanding and offers a holistic focus on mental, physical, and emotional development. The teachers are wonderful. They go out of their way to get to know and care for each child as an individual. I receive daily feedback about their progress and feel the teachers are truly invested in my children’s growth. However, there is a one more thing KinderCare offers its families – a sense of community. Getting to know other families through KinderCare events has been an unexpected and invaluable benefit of attending KinderCare. Overall, my girls are happy there and I am happy knowing they are receiving quality care.

      • Donovan Aldridge

        Class of 2018

        “Make yourself known in everything that you do. It’s very easy to get ‘lost in the numbers’ at a large university, so it is important that your professors are able to put a face to the name and that you make an honest impression. These connections that you make with professors, advisors, and coaches can last a lifetime and can open up new opportunities that you never knew existed or help you achieve experiences that you have always dreamed of . . . I am able to do what I love in a way that I never thought was possible because of these professors, advisors and coaches.”

      • Eleanor Napoli ’16

        Class of 2016

        “I believe that the concept of active listening and learning was cultivated at WFS, and this included being open to feedback. Being willing (and knowing it’s okay!) to change your mind, and constructively disagreeing helped prepare me for post HS life. On the topic of seeing something differently, it was here that I learned that it is perfectly fine to disagree with someone or not see eye to eye, but it’s imperative for everyone’s personal growth and development to do so in a kind, respectful, and gracious way. I think this is the most powerful lesson I took away from Friends and one that I see necessary to practice daily in our world, now more than ever.”

Throughout my attendance at Friends, certain core values such as integrity, community, equality, peace, stewardship, and simplicity were foundational.

      Chapter 2. Wilmington. Laney High School 1979-1981 Michael Jordan and the World He Made

      Chapter 2. Wilmington. High school in Laney, 1979-1981

      Maybe Michael Jordan is really a genius, but in his youth, no special inclinations were found in him. The Jordans, residents of Wilmington, North Carolina, were solid, positive people – a typical Negro family, classified as middle class. However, Michael Wilbon, a well-known Washington Post columnist (also black), considers the Jordans to be representatives of the “upper middle class.” In his opinion, “there is a certain tendency in the press to belittle the material and social level of Negro families. ” Parents of future basketball superstar James Jordan and Deloris Peoples met at 1

      James and Deloris, whose parents lived in poverty and darkness, could now enjoy the beneficial economic and social changes that had transformed the American South. Naturally, they wanted their children to achieve even more in life, at least graduating from colleges. Obedient Michael really went to college, but before he had time to study for three years, his basketball coach Dean Smith decided that his capable ward would not learn anything more useful here and in general it was time for him to switch to professional sports. Deloris Jordan met Smith’s proposal with hostility: she wanted her son not to drop out of school and graduate from college. “Mrs. Jordan,” Smith told her, “I don’t want Michael to be a dropout. I mean, he’s got more than a provincial college diploma.”

      There has always been an atmosphere of strict discipline in the Jordan family. Their life went according to established rules, the first of which was the following: do not waste your talent and work hard. James Jordan, who served in the military aviation and therefore accustomed to a strict order in everything, encouraged his sons’ sports hobbies. But according to close friends of the Jordans, Deloris was the real driving force behind the family. She placed all her hopes on her children, constantly suggesting to them that the more their parents invest in their upbringing and education, the more is expected of them in the future when they become adults. The main thing, Deloris taught her children, is not to retreat in front of random obstacles, not to succumb to momentary panic. One day she told them about her sad experience – about how, already in her first year at the institute at Tuskegee, she managed to miss her home and foolishly returned to North Carolina, in tears. “My mother did wrong,” Deloris said once. “She should have put me on the train again—back to Alabama. I took into account this mistake of hers, and my children will receive a good education.” When Michael skipped school one day, she took him with her to work at the bank and left him in her car parked in front of the window, from which she could watch how diligently her son gnawed at his boring textbooks. Of all the five Jordan children, Michael, by his own admission, was the laziest. He, like none of his brothers and sisters, knew how to shirk household duties, finding the most unimaginable pretexts for this. The father subsequently joked: “It’s good that Michael found his place in life. Professional sports are just for him. With his laziness, he is not adapted to any other work.

      Unlike his father and his older brother Larry, Michael did not show any special aptitude for technology. For the family, this was a disappointment: in the Jordan household, technical savvy, the ability to do everything with one’s own hands, has always been revered. James Jordan (and Michael always admired his father) had a strange habit: doing anything around the house, he worked with his tongue slightly sticking out between his teeth. James adopted this habit from his father, grandfather Michael. It was inherited by Michael, who played basketball with his tongue hanging out. Years passed, and thousands of growing up basketball players, imitating their idol, adopted his trademark facial expressions for greater importance. And all because once did, digging under the hood of his car, an ordinary worker James Jordan.

      According to Michael’s friends from school and college, the key to his unbridled sports passion lies in his eternal rivalry with his older brother Larry, an outstanding athlete. Larry had great physical strength and ambition enough to achieve some success in sports, but for a basketball player he did not come out tall. “He was a real breeding stallion,” Doug Collins said of him. “I remember the first time I saw him—a short guy about 5 feet 7 inches tall, with unusually developed muscles and a powerful torso. It was created more for American football than for basketball. As soon as I saw him, I immediately understood where Michael got his sports passion, thirst for victory. And here is what Clifton (Pop) Herring, who coached both brothers in high school, said: “Larry was so passionate and ambitious that if he were 6 feet tall and not 5 foot 7 inches, Michael would be spoken of only as his brother. But it just so happened that Larry became known only as Michael’s brother. Michael himself once remarked: “When you see me in the game, you see Larry.”

      Over the years, Michael outstripped Larry in height, but he could jump as high as his younger brother. Ron Cowley, one of the coaches at Laney High School, thought that Larry would have excelled in gymnastics, but he still preferred basketball, although he did not become a star. He played in one of the Chicago professional clubs, however, realizing that his name was being exploited as the name of the brother of the famous Michael Jordan, he left the sport.

      The younger ones in the family often look up to the elders, while trying to surpass them. Michael was no exception, idolizing his brother, but not wanting to yield to him in anything. All day long they were busy in the backyard, equipped by James Jordan under the sports ground. The monstrously strong Larry initially overpowered Michael, but by the end of high school he began to grow rapidly and became, in the end, much taller than everyone in the family. To smooth out the friction between his sons, the father often praised the short Larry than the lanky Michael, and the younger brother, in response, exhausted himself with training.

      What is interesting is the ambivalence that Michael had for his older brother. On the one hand, he saw him as a rival, on the other, a role model. “When Michael and Larry were boys, they competed with each other in everything,” says David Hart, a basketball coach from North Carolina, who in his youth was Michael’s roommate in the student hostel of Chapel Hill College. Larry meant a lot in Michael’s life. He talked about it endlessly. You could say he idolized him. Of course, Michael was far ahead of his older brother in sports success, but this did not affect their relationship in any way. In the presence of Larry, Michael forgot about his fame, he immediately became just a loving little brother.

      Sometimes, however, Michael teased Larry. Once, when he had already become an NBA star, the brothers were fooling around on the basketball court. Suddenly looking at Larry’s feet, Michael said: “Don’t forget whose last name is written on your sneakers!” Still, sometimes he was bursting with pride: the younger brother was ahead of the older.

      The most curious thing is that Michael achieved his first sports success not in basketball, but in baseball. Serve well, he played for a very good team in Wilmington, playing in the children’s league. When he was twelve, his club even competed in the eastern zone championship and made it to the decisive match, the winner of which would qualify for the U.S. Junior Championship. Michael showed his best in that meeting, but the Wilmington team still lost 0:1.

      Michael also liked basketball, but at that time it seemed to him something unattainable: the kid was short (5 feet 8 inches) and thin as a chip. This depressed him, and before moving on to high school, he hung on the horizontal bar for a long time, hoping that his body would stretch. Over the years, he has noticeably gained in height, but the horizontal bar has nothing to do with it – that’s what nature itself ordered.

      In the meantime, glimpses of basketball talent began to be noticed in him. Harvest Leroy Smith, a classmate and close friend of Michael who played basketball with him almost every day, considered him the best on the team of their 9class. Although he was still short, he was distinguished by speed and mobility. “If you saw how he passes the ball or throws around the ring,” Smith said, “you would be surprised. He’s small for a basketball player. But small, but daring. His reaction is – God forbid everyone. The whole question is how much he will grow up and, of course, how much he will improve his technique.

      If in technique Michael was inferior to some basketball players of his school, then in terms of sports anger he had no equal. “We trained every day with him,” recalls Smith, “and Michael always felt compelled to win. Let’s start a one-on-one game. If I won, he did not calm down until he took revenge. If he doesn’t win, you won’t drive him home.”

      After graduating from 9th grade, Jordan and Smith went to basketball camp for the summer. It was led by Pop Herring, a coach at Laney University. He invited Michael and his friend to play for the sophomores. He chose Smith because of his height (6ft 6in) and at Jordan he liked his speed and responsiveness. Physically, both guys have not yet fully formed. Their teammates, who were older by two or even three years, looked much more powerful. At this age, the difference even in a year means a lot.

      Smith had no doubt who was the better of the two. Of course, Michael. And then the long-awaited day came, when the lists of players of student teams were to be posted at the university. Friends, burning with impatience, came to the gym. Roy Smith found his name on the lists. Michael Jordan is not.

      It was the worst day of young Jordan’s life. The names of the players were listed in alphabetical order. Michael re-read all the names beginning with the letter J ten times, secretly hoping that he had missed his own in excitement, but in vain. I re-read all the lists: suddenly the alphabetical order was mixed up somewhere? Again to no avail. He went home alone. However, Smith did not impose himself on him as a travel companion. He knew Michael well and understood his condition. Jordan could not stand if someone saw him humiliated and suffering. When he got to his room, Michael wept bitterly.

      Years passed and the coaches realized their mistake. It was necessary to somehow soften the situation – to explain to Michael that his time would come. Moreover, it was not necessary to put his best friend in the main team. Roy Smith himself decided that the coaches were crazy: even though he is taller than Michael, he plays better. “We knew about the excellent inclinations of Michael,” says one of the school coaches Fred Lynch, “but we understood that he needed to gain playing experience. That’s why we decided: let him play in training or duplicating matches of student teams for now.

      In these matches, Michael immediately became the brightest player. Short, but nimble, he dominated the court, sometimes bringing his team 40 points each. He played so well that the training matches that took place in the early morning gathered a lot of spectators – the whole university came running.

      As Leroy Smith noted, failure only angered Michael. After that sad day, his sports passion doubled. The coaches noticed this too. “The first time I saw him, I had no idea who Michael Jordan was,” says Ron Cowley. “But one day we came to Goldsboro, to our age-old rivals. I came to the gym when the meeting of the duplicate teams was coming to an end. Nine players on the court moved as if serving a sentence, but the tenth fought not for life, but for death. I involuntarily thought that there was a turning point in the game: his team is only one point behind, and there are two minutes left before the final whistle. But – no: his team lost 20 points, and there was one minute left to play – hopelessness! This indomitable fighter was Michael Jordan. Even then I understood what his riddle was.

      In the time between Michael’s sad day and his penultimate year of high school, he grew 4 inches and became noticeably stronger. Now he could simply put the ball into the basket with the movement of his hand from above, especially since his hands had become impressive. The Lainey High School team has grown a lot, with a guy named Michael Jordan as its rising star. He still trained to the point of exhaustion and demanded the same from his partners. If he could not force them, he complained to the coaches. Those, in turn, believed that Michael worked too hard for the team and, doing the dirty work, rarely threw the ring. He, however, did not heed their advice. Then the coaches decided to talk to his father, hoping that Jordan Sr.’s exhortations would work. “I don’t know what to say,” James replied. – I have my own principles – not to interfere in my son’s sports life. I don’t want to be a model daddy. But since you really want to, I’ll try to talk to him.

      When Michael was in the penultimate grade, his school team won 13 matches, losing 10. Playing for them in the senior year, he had already reached certain heights. As a result – 19 wins and 4 losses. Only one embarrassing loss in the regional tournament prevented the Laney team from reaching the finals of the North Carolina State Championship.

      Spring means birds

      In spring, as you know, birds return from distant lands. They settle in birdhouses, build nests, and hatch chicks. Of course, all this is a fertile topic for children’s crafts. There are a great variety of them, because there are so many birds! Here are just some of these crafts – as an example. In general, each child usually performs his own craft on this topic – in accordance with his own vision of the world.

      Here is a simple and cute children’s craft – birdhouses.

      1. Cut out individual parts of the birdhouse from colored paper of different colors. It’s not difficult at all – just look at the proposed photos.
      2. Glue the cut pieces onto a sheet of colored paper or cardboard to form a birdhouse.
      3. Cut out small flowers from paper (any color) and glue them over the birdhouse. After all, it is spring in the world, and spring is the time of flowers. Everything is blooming, which means that birdhouses should also bloom. In general, a birdhouse with flowers is much more beautiful than a birdhouse without flowers. We glue the birdhouse with flowers.
      4. Making a bird. This is perhaps the most difficult part of the craft. You can simply draw a bird on colored paper, and then cut it out with scissors. But still, a voluminous bird will look much more beautiful. It is made in several stages:
      • draw the outline of a bird on colored paper. If the child has difficulties, one of the elders should help him;
      • draw a wing from paper of a different color. One wing is enough, since the bird will be turned to us with one side;
      • cut out the outline of the bird and the wing;
      • glue the wing to the bird;
      • draw one eye for the bird (remember that it is turned to us on one side, which means that another eye is not needed). Another option is to glue a purchased eye to a bird;
      • glue the bird on the birdhouse or somewhere closer to the birdhouse.

      Is it difficult? It only seems so at first glance. In fact, this is a very simple craft. Here, look at the photo or read the master class here.

      And here is another similar option. Here is the same beautiful birdhouse with flowers and birds, and with a cute cat in addition. We first draw the cat on paper, then cut it out and paste it on cardboard. The child does not know how to draw a cat? It doesn’t matter, adults will help him with this. What, dad and mom also can’t draw cats? Again, no problem. The drawing is easy to find on the Internet, download, transfer to paper and cut out. Everything is in our hands, there would be only desire and spring mood!

      Another option is a wonderful spring birch grove with a birdhouse, birds, butterflies and insects, sun and clouds. This is a whole spring landscape! As you can see in the photo, all the details of this landscape are cut out of colored paper or cardboard and pasted onto a sheet of colored paper so that a real picture is obtained. Yes, the work is quite laborious, but not too difficult. And therefore, any assiduous and attentive kid-kindergartener will definitely cope with it.

      As you know, in addition to birdhouses, birds also live in nests. Well, this is a great theme for spring crafts. Again, there are many options here. For example, like this.

      1. We take a sheet of colored cardboard (best of all – blue: this color will depict a cloudless spring sky).
      2. Make tree branches from green or brown plasticine. Glue them onto cardboard.
      3. We sculpt a bird’s nest on plasticine branches. You can – one, two or as many as you want.
      4. Cut out leaves and flowers from colored paper and decorate plasticine branches with them.
      5. We make birds from colored paper (there should be as many of them as there are nests). How to make birds, see above.
      6. Putting the birds on the nests. How many of them will be in each nest is up to the artist.
      7. Do not forget to cut a cheerful spring sun out of yellow paper and glue it on a blue sheet of paper.

      That’s it, the picture with the birds on the nests is ready. The beauty! By analogy with this craft, it is easy to make other crafts that will differ from the sample. It all depends on the child, his vision of the world and abilities.

      Where there are birds, there are animals

      Spring is a joy not only for birds, but also for all kinds of animals. For example, for bunnies, which are very cold and hungry in winter, and therefore spring gives them a lot of joy. One of the easiest ways to make a happy spring bunny is with a paper cut bunny. Kindergarten kids will cope with such crafts confidently and with pleasure. So let’s make a rabbit.

      1. Preparing a strong gray cardboard.
      2. We draw on it the head, ears and paws of a hare.
      3. Draw a hare’s hand, bangs and fur on white cardboard.
      4. Cut it all out.
      5. Draw a mouth, teeth and whiskers for a hare.
      6. Cut out the nose and eyes from black cardboard. Alternatively, purchased eyes.
      7. We glue together the hands, palms, head, ears, fur on the chest – everything is in place. The upper part of the craft is ready.
      8. Take a strip of strong cardboard and glue the finished upper part of the hare to it.
      9. We wrap the bottom part of the craft with a beautiful fabric in such a way that we get a beautiful dress.
      10. We give the bunny a flower cut out of cardboard. If desired, the craft can be decorated in other ways.

      That’s it, the joyful spring bunny-girl is ready!

      And here are samples of other cardboard hares. Such crafts are made in much the same way as described above.

      And here is the step-by-step process of making a hare craft.

      Other crafts are made in the same way.

      Stone Fox by John Reynolds Gardiner

      I would be remiss if I didn’t start with a little disclaimer for this one. Keep tissues close by near the end. You will cry…probably hard. It is truly one of the saddest third-grade books on this list. However, this classic book remains one of my favorite novels for third graders.

      Stone Fox is a beautifully written story that enthralls readers in Little Willy’s attempts to save his grandfather’s farm along with some help from his faithful pup, Searchlight. Little Willy is such a likable character, and your students will be cheering him on as he attempts the impossible.

      This novel is truly a literary gem, and it makes a fantastic winter read-aloud. I can read it over and over with students and (despite knowing the end) still be brought to tears each time by Gardiner’s compelling story.

      Perfect for inclusion in a cross-curricular unit about the Iditarod in March, you can make so many great connections to math and social studies with this book.  Alternatively, you might use this book in conjunction with the true story of Balto.

      The Littles by John Peterson

      Imagine there were tiny people living in your house without you even knowing it. They used your things, borrowed your scraps, and made themselves right at home despite the numerous dangers the typical house presents when you’re tiny. That is the plot of The Littles.

      This fantasy novel is great for young readers because it is engaging and has a clear, well-developed plot. There are many opportunities to discuss problems and solutions as the Littles work to navigate the world at their size. Plus, it is a great novel for working through other critical comprehension skills, as well.

      Considered by many to be a must-read classic, I’ve included it on my list because it is the first of a whole series of books about this miniature family. I love when there are multiple books because it means I’ve opened a whole new reading list for students just by introducing them to this one novel.

      Freckle Juice by Judy Blume

      This is the first of a couple of Judy Blume books you’ll find on this list. She’s really got some great choices that are perfect for third-grade readers.

      Freckle Juice is a hilarious realistic fiction novel about a boy, Andrew, who wants to have freckles just like his classmate. Andrew can think of so many reasons having freckles would make his life easier. For example, his mom would never even know if his neck was dirty! When Andrew asks Nicky where his freckles came from, a classmate overhears and offers a special freckle juice recipe…at the low cost of just 50 cents.

      Of course, Andrew buys it and makes a batch of freckle juice for himself. I won’t give away the whole story, but suffice to say things get extra hilarious from that point on.

      Your students will love this totally relatable novel, and you’ll love the numerous opportunities to teach skills like theme and problem & solution. Together, this makes it one of the great books for 3rd graders to enjoy during book clubs or lit circles.

      Boxcar Children by Gertrude Chandler Warner

      This book was a favorite of mine as a child, and now I love sharing it with my students. This classic story of orphans on the run is guaranteed to capture the reader’s attention.

      Students will love reading about the adventures of Henry, Jessie, Violet, and Benny as they create a home for themselves in an old boxcar they discover in the woods. Trying hard to avoid being discovered by their grandfather (whom they’ve not met), the kids cook, clean, and work to earn money all on their own.

      The book has a surprise ending, and as the first book in the series, it is a great opportunity to get your struggling or reluctant readers hooked on an easy-to-read series that will expose them to lots of great vocabulary. This book is truly a must-have in every third-grade classroom library.

      Fudge-a-mania by Judy Blume

      After discovering his parents’ plan to have their family spend summer vacation with his enemy, Sheila, Peter Hatcher is sure summer is ruined. His little brother, however, is elated.

      Things take a turn for the better for Peter when his parents offer to let him bring his best friend with him, but it isn’t long before he’s spending more time with Shiela than him.

      While the storyline is pretty tame, much like life most of the time, the relatable characters and situations are perfect for 3rd-grade readers. The students love predicting what will happen after discovering Sheila and Peter have become “stepcousins” by the end of the story.

      Another fabulous novel by Judy Blume is the third book in the Fudge series. While all the books in the series are great, I really love this one. It is a great way to introduce the topic of protagonist vs. antagonist and how this isn’t always the bad guy vs. the good guy.

      This delightful fantasy novel is a twist on the traditional story of the Midas touch. Even reluctant readers can’t help but be pulled into the story as they connect with John and his transition from enjoyment to frustration with his newfound talent.

      A great book for cause and effect and prediction, The Chocolate Touch is a well-loved novel for a reason. I guarantee your kids will be begging to get back to reading when you use this book in your novel study or book club.

      With vivid description and silliness that only Dahl can bring to a children’s novel, this story is overall an easy read and fan favorite among books for 3rd graders. There are so many great opportunities to discuss character traits and practice visualization, inferring, and more.

      While the text has some made-up words (as do nearly all Dahl’s books), the plotline draws readers in and encourages them to overcome these challenges because the story is just that good.

      From butchering their own meat to gathering wood for the fire, the Ingalls must do everything they need for survival. As the book works through each season, the work the family does changes. Planting, making butter, and more.

      Students are often fascinated by life long before there were grocery stores everywhere. Great for comparing the past and present, which is a commonly studied social studies unit, this story goes into detail about life during the 1800s.

      The stories revolve around a sister and brother, Jack and Annie, and their travels in a magic tree house. In this first book, they travel back to the time of the dinosaurs on a mysterious quest. In addition to the great story, readers also learn lots of facts about dinosaurs through Jack’s research during their travels.

      The Indian in the Cupboard by Lynne Reid Banks

      What kid hasn’t dreamed about their toys coming to life? The fact that this fantasy is so relatable is part of what makes this one of the great books for 3rd graders!

      When Omri receives a cupboard for his birthday, he decides it is the perfect place to lock his plastic Indian toy. The next thing he knows his plastic toy is a walking, talking man. After finding out his name is Little Bear, Omri works to help him set up a place to live and food.

      Of course, no story is complete without a little drama…and Omri’s comes in the form of a cowboy named Boone. While the two don’t get along at first, the men soon find their commonalities.

      Ultimately, Omri gets an unfortunate surprise when the key that makes the magic cupboard work disappears. Will the cowboy and Indian ever be able to go back home?

      This is one of my favorite books for 3rd graders when teaching comparing and contrasting or visualizing.

      I love sharing Ella’s picks each month, but I ESPECIALLY love how much Ella loves coming up five of the best books for third graders to recommend.

      She keeps a little list in a notebook in her room and when I tell her I’m ready for the next set of best books for third graders, she promptly brings me the list and explains to me in detail what books didn’t quite make the cut and why she picked the ones she did.

      It’s basically the cutest thing in the world.

      Best Books for Third Graders

      Sideways Stories from Wayside School by Louis Sachar, illustrated by Adam McCauley
      128 pages
      My girls are LONG TIME fans of the Wayside School series – the stories all take place at Wayside School where the school was accidentally built 30 stories tall with one classroom per floor instead of one story with 30 side-by-side classrooms. And the wackiness only grows from there, especially on the thirtieth floor. I have to admit that, even as a child, I found the stories a little oddball for my taste, but my girls all love them and my sisters loved them when they were children too.

      What Ella has to say: This book is really funny and there is a chapter for each student. One of my favorite chapters is about Allison. At Wayside School there is no 19th story and Mrs. Zarves, the teacher for that classroom, doesn’t exist. One day Allison goes to school and nobody can see her and everyone just looks right through her, but when she walks through the halls yelling, Mrs. Zarves invites her into the 19th story. This book is good for all ages – my sisters have loved it (Star has listened to the audiobook probably twenty times).

      Missy Piggle-Wiggle and the Whatever Cure by Ann M. Martin and Annie Parnell, illustrated by Ben Hatke
      272 pages
      I loved Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle when I was growing up and Ella has listened to the original series many many times since she was about three, so we were both thrilled to discover this spin-off series about Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle’s niece who takes over the business of curing children when Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle leaves unexpectedly. The first one came in Ella’s Bookroo box and Ella devoured it. You’ll recognize the author as the creator of the crazy popular Babysitters Club series as well as The Doll People.

      What Ella has to say: You should probably read the original Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle books first. Missy Piggle-Wiggle finds out how to cure parents, not just kids and she cures unbearable problems for both of them (sometimes at the same time!).  It’s a funny book and it’s fun to see children changing, getting rid of bad habits, and trying to understand what’s happening when they get trapped in a bubble for being mean nineteen times.

      The Mysterious Benedict Society by Trenton Lee Stewart, illustrated by Carson Ellis
      512 pages
      I read this book back when I was a school librarian and have been a fan ever since. This spring, we listened to the whole 13+ hour audiobook in the car and my two older girls both LOVED it. As soon as we finished, Ella checked out the rest of the series and listened to them in a week (oh, to have that much listening time. . . ). The book begins with a strange ad in the newspaper asking super smart children to apply and when four children pass the test put before them. Now their job is to go on a secret mission at a mysterious school called the Learning Institute for the Very Enlightened, and puzzles, tests, and riddles will be everywhere they turn.

      What Ella has to say: The Mysterious Benedict Society is quite long but it’s very entertaining and there are a lot of twists and turns in the plot. There are three books in the series and I love them all. You probably should read them in order. The problems are always solved in surprising ways and things turn out the way they should but in the weirdest way possible.

      Geronimo Stilton by Geronimo Stilton
      128 pages
      Aside from her beloved Boxcar Children books, I’m not sure there is any series that Ella has read more of than Geronimo Stilton. Every time we visit a new library, her first stop is checking out which Geronimo Stilton books they have in their collection that she might not have read yet. These books are pretty easy reading but she never gets tired of these mystery stories about the editor of the New Mouse City newspaper, The Rodent’s Gazette. Who, of course, in his spare time is always off on some harrowing adventure barely living to tell (and write) the tail. Er, tale.

      What Ella has to say: Geronimo Stilton has five billion books in the series. Every book is different with a scaredy cat mouse going on wild adventures to who-knows-where. He has a prankster cousin, a daredevil sister, and a grandfather nicknamed Cheap Mouse Willie. I like these books because they’re hilarious and they’re also adventurous, and I love adventure stories.

      Red: The (Fairly) True Tale of Red Riding Hood by Liesl Shurtliff
      272 pages
      I read Liesl Shurtliff’s first book, Rump, back in 2014 and loved it. She now has a whole bunch of fractured fairy tale novels and Ella has read them all (except for Rump – the hold line is painfully long for it). Picking one was difficult, but she decided that Red, a retelling of Little Red Riding Hood, was her favorite. We actually listened to this one together in the car last year and my girls were all VERY into this story about Red’s quest to save her ailing grandmother even if it means confronting her worst fear: magic!

      What Ella has to say: There are four books in the series and you don’t need to read them in order. Every book is about adventurous children who get themselves into loads of trouble. I love fractured fairy tales and this is one of my favorite series (I have many favorite series). This book is funny and fairly long, but very exciting.

      Books for 3rd graders and beyond are obviously the best gift. When buying for kids, books are even better because you can pick out something that will directly help them build skills they need for school. Picking out a book can be fraught. What do kids today even read? Are comic books considered books or not? How do you know what reading level kids are at? And which classic books are too racist, too sexist, or too distant to connect with kids today?

       

       

      Third grade in particular can offer a real challenge when figuring out a bookish gift. The two main things to keep in mind when picking books for 3rd graders are 1) the wide range of reading capabilities for 3rd graders, 2) that reading needs to be fun for kids who are developing their relationship with reading.

      Third graders reading abilities can vary widely. In 3rd grade, 7- and 8-year-olds might read a couple of grade levels in either direction, meaning kids could be reading anywhere from what’s considered average for a 1st grader to what’s average for a 5th grader. And that’s fine. Reading takes practice, so helping kids find books that will give them confidence and help them practice is key.

      One of the biggest things for kids at this age is getting books they’ll enjoy reading. Reading skills are developed through reading practice, but if reading isn’t fun, it’s so hard to practice. When picking out a book for your 3rd grader, picking out something fun is just as important as picking out something that is good quality. We want to lay down a foundation of good experiences with books!

      Graphic Novels For 3rd Graders

      Graphic novels are ideal for building up fun reading experiences for kids. The art provides context for words and draws in readers who may find a page full of words intimidating. Though they are ideal for any reader who likes good stories!

      My Favorite Third Grade Books

      I get asked all of the time on Facebook what books I recommend for third grade read alouds or classroom libraries. I keep typing out my list of favorites and then it occurred to me- I should make this list a blog post! Duh! #alwayslearning

      So here are some of my favorite books for third graders:

      1. How to Be Cool in the Third Grade

      This is a short and cute book about a boy just starting the third grade. He wants to be cool, but how can he do that when his mom kisses him at the bus stop? He doesn’t even have the cool clothes! I like this book because it is funny and helps kids to see that coolness isn’t a matter of what you wear or what school supplies you have. This is perfect for the beginning of the year.

      2. Third Grade Angels

      This is another short book that is perfect for the first month of school. It is about a third grade teacher that awards one student with the title of Third Grade Angel. Students are competing to be the best behaved and have the best character. They quickly learn how challenging it is to always do the right thing! It has a great message and will make your students giggle.

      3. Gooney Bird Greene

      Oh my! I big puffy heart love this book! I like to read it towards the beginning of the year when we are starting writing workshop. Gooney is a new student in class and she has some crazy stories to tell. They all sound far fetched, but she insists that she only tells absolutely true stories. When telling her stories, Gooney teaches the class some great lessons about personal narratives and figurative speech. You have to get this one!

      4. Miss Daisy is Crazy (from the Weird School series)

      My lower level readers especially love this series, but rarely come to me knowing about the series. I often use this book in a book club early in the year. This book is about a teacher who convinces her class that she doesn’t know anything. The students end up teaching her math and spelling. Isn’t she one smart teacher?!

      5. The World According to Humphrey

      I read this book aloud to every single one of my classes. It is such a great story. The book is told from the point of view of a hamster, Humphrey. He is a class pet and goes home with a different student each weekend. You get a glimpse into the home life of the students in the class and it helps you to understand why they act the way they do in class. This book will make you laugh and still has a fun message. The series has several other books that my kids can’t wait to independently read after this read aloud. 

      6. Sideway Stories from Wayside School

      I remember this book from when I was a kid. It is still just as fun. The stories are super funny and a little strange! I use this book as a read aloud. I love that every chapter is its own story. If you go a few days without reading (which I don’t know what you would!), you can pick right back up without having to review. There are several more Wayside School books that my kids get excited to read after we finish this one.

      7. The One and Only Ivan

      This book is AMAZING. I can read it every year and it never gets old and I am never able to finish it with dry eyes. The writing is incredible and you get so attached to the characters. It is the story of animals that are in a mall circus. They are not well cared for and dream about living in a zoo with other animals. Get this book. Like right now. I’ll wait….

      8. Frindle

      Who decided that a pen would be called a pen? In this book, a boy decides to rename the pen. He calls it a Frindle and starts a huge school controversy. The book is funny, but also very thought provoking. It really shows the power that one student can have. I often use this as a book club book with my highest readers. 

      9. Who Was _____?

      The Who Was/Who Is series is excellent! I always have a group of students who love informational text. There are so many of these books that cover so many different topics. You can probably find some that fit in with student interests and science/social studies skills. I keep lots of these in our classroom library and use them for our informational text book clubs too.

      10. I Survived

      My third graders LOVED the I Survived series! The books are historical fiction. Each book takes place during a different historical disaster. Students learn some facts about the time in history, but it is fiction and very engaging to my readers. I highly recommend putting some of these in your classroom library.

      11. Diary of a Wimpy Kid

      Let me start by saying that, despite my blog name, I am not crazy about these books. But, who cares! My third graders love them and that is all that really matters. I firmly believe that kids should be aloud to read anything that gets them excited to read. The books are graphic novels and they deal with typical family and school problems that kids face. You need to have these in your class library. They will probably be the most loved books in your library!

      12. Lemonade War

      This is an adorable book about sibling rivalry. A brother and sister are competing to see who can raise the most money. My students always laugh at the fights these two have. They also learn a little about doing what is right when no one is watching. This book has lots of math in it! I love that! I recommend using this one as a book club so that everyone can see the math equations. There are more books in the series and my students are anxious to read them as soon as we finish!

      I hope these recommendations help you to add amazing titles to your third grade library!

      Essay my favorite book 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 grades

      My favorite book. There are many interesting books in the world. The book has become our friend and helper. When I was little, my mother used to read to me, now I am in the third grade and I read by myself. My favorite book is the fairy tales of Hans Christian Andersen.

      When my mother is preparing dinner, I take a book, sit on the sofa and immerse myself in a fairy-tale world. Most of all I like the fairy tales “Wild Swans”, “The Snow Queen”, “Thumbelina”. The fairy tale “The Steadfast Tin Soldier” is also good, but very sad. A soldier and a dancer die in it.

      But love still wins. In all fairy tales, heroes fight not for life, but to the death, they defeat enemies, they save friends. Eliza, having gone through severe trials, saves her brothers. She, a little girl, needed a lot of patience and courage.

      I love fairy tales because they teach us to be brave, courageous, kind, affectionate, resourceful. In them, a good heart always wins over an evil one.

      • Ksenia Skhozhenko, 3rd grade
      • My favorite book.

      My favorite book is The Adventures of Pinocchio. The author is Alexei Tolstoy, Russian writer. We have this book at home. She is very old. My grandmother gave it to my mother when she was like me. I learned to read early: at two years 8 months I learned the alphabet, and at the age of 3 I read my first book, The Adventures of Pinocchio, or the Golden Key.

      This book is about good and evil, about true friends. There is a picture on every page. Most of all in this book I like Pinocchio and Pierrot. Karabas Barabas is also cute. He has a long beard that you can slide down like a hill.

      I think that if some writer writes a sequel, Karabas Barabas will realize all his mistakes in the new book and become kind. When I was 3 years old, I asked my grandmother to sew Pierrot’s New Year’s costume for me. Piero is very kind, but sad. He is sad because he lost Malvina. And when he met her, he became cheerful and happy.

      And when I was 4 years old, my grandmother sewed Pinocchio’s costume for me. Grandpa made a real golden key. I still have it in my possession. There are also 5 coins.

      It seems to me that I would make friends with Pinocchio. He is as funny as I am and a great inventor. I would love to play with him. But Pinocchio did not want to study, and this is bad. 3But I like to study, I like to read and count. This year I will go to the first class. And I, like Pinocchio, will have many new friends!

      1. Maksim Malygin, 3rd grade
      2. Our favorite book.

      Do you like fairy tales? Our mother is very, and it was thanks to her that we learned and fell in love with an interesting story – A. Volkov’s fairy tale “The Wizard of the Emerald City.” We really liked this book, especially its main character – Ellie, a girl from the Kansas steppe, who ended up in Magic Land. Despite her young age, she was very brave, kind and sympathetic.

      Probably everyone who read this fairy tale wanted to be like her. Our mother was no exception. After reading vivid impressions, she went to bed, hugging her cat and hoping to wake up with her already in the Magic Land with its extraordinary inhabitants.

      If we were the authors of this book, we would call it differently, for example, “The Adventures of Ellie and her friends, because the wizard Goodwin in this book is not the main character at all. Ellie can rightfully be called a real sorceress. Each of her friends is also interesting in her own way. For example, the Scarecrow, who had no brains and really wanted to acquire them, was very smart.

      Thanks to his wisdom, he helped his friends out of trouble on their difficult journey. The Tin Woodman, who dreamed of a loving heart, actually had one without knowing it. After all, only with a good heart can one be indifferent to someone else’s misfortune.

      And how a cowardly lion bravely tried to protect his friends and saber-toothed tigers! He was even ready to die! How can you call him a coward after that?! This wonderful book teaches us to value our friends and to be loyal and trustworthy towards them. Because thanks to this we become kind, courageous and fair.

      Do you believe in miracles? But they are. You don’t have to follow them to distant lands or fly over high mountains, they are next to us. Real miracles are created by love, friendship and devotion of friends. Can we try to be a little magical?

      • Girls, 3rd grade
      • My favorite book.

      I have read Jack London’s wonderful book “White Fang”. This story is about a poor half-breed dog that lives in the North. White Fang had a wolf and a dog in his family, so his upbringing was like that of a mother dog, and from the wolf father he got strength, endurance, courage.

      I really liked this book, because Jack London beautifully described the nature of the North, he described the feelings of the dog in such detail that when I read about the suffering of the White Fang, tears welled up in my eyes. White Fang is courageous, patient, courageous, he does not hold stubbornness.

      That’s why I liked him the most. He has to comply with the laws of people whom he considers gods. But, unfortunately, people are not always fair, they are cruel. Devotion to a person becomes the law of life for the White Fang. Judge for yourself: in the life of an animal there were three owners.

      First owner – Gray Beaver. He had many other dogs, but White Fang was the leader, he was the pride of Gray Beaver. The dog becomes the leader of the team. Thanks to the birth of a wolf dad, White Fang could run for days, and the rest of the dogs only for hours. The Indian did not want to give or sell his dog to anyone.

      One bad man got Gray Beaver drunk and bought a dog from him. Gray Beaver was weak.

      The second owner of the White Fang is Handsome Smith. This is a terrible hero that makes me furious. After all, he put a free dog on a chain, teased, mocked, laughed at the poor animal. Handsome Smith beat White Fang. The dog hates him, but obeys.

      Smith makes a lot of money from dog fights. After all, the White Fang always wins – natural speed, the surprise of his attacks, his experience helps out. He had to fight with everyone: dogs, wolves, a female lynx, a bulldog.

      A fight with a bulldog almost becomes the dog’s last.

      Scott is the third owner of the White Fang. He was not too lazy to tame the dog with caress and care. For love, the animal pays with devotion and sincere love. White Fang fell in love with everything that surrounds his beloved master: California, Scott’s children, his father, the judge. He even sacrificed his life for the owner’s father, saved him from the criminal Jim Hill. Jim Hill shot him three times.

      Well, the dog had no right to die! Everyone was waiting for him: the owner, the owner’s children, the owner’s father, his girlfriend Collie, and his children. I believe that this story describes real events taking place in the cold North of America. Jack London described everything so truthfully that I cannot contradict him in anything. It was as if I had been there in that time. This book teaches that good always triumphs over evil.

      Remember this all your life!

      9 essays on the topic: My favorite book (for grades 2-11) | Literaguru

      In this collection, any student will find for himself an essay about his favorite book. At each point (except for grades 6-7, where the opinions of the respondents agreed on Harry Potter) there are two options for an essay: for a girl and for a boy, since representatives of different sexes also have different preferences in literature.

      Content:

      • 1 2-3 Grade
      • 2 4-5 class
      • 3 6-7 class
      • 4 8-9 class
      • 5 10-11 class

      2-3 grade

      For a boy (156 words). Recently I read an entertaining book by the Russian writer Tolstoy A.N., which is called “The Golden Key, or the Adventure of Pinocchio.” I really liked this book. It tells about the adventure of Pinocchio, a boy made of logs by Papa Carlo.

      At the beginning of the book Pinocchio behaves like a child. He decides not to go to school and sells his alphabet. Due to the fact that he did not obey his father and did it his own way, he was deceived by Alice the Fox and Basilio the Cat.

      Then he almost got caught by the bloodthirsty Karabas-Barabas. Fortunately, his friends helped him: Piero, Malvina and Artemon.

      Pinocchio met them by chance, trying to hide from the villains, in which Alice the Fox and Basilio the Cat disguised themselves.

      Everything ended well. Pinocchio, thanks to the help of Turtle Tortila, found the key and opened a new puppet theater, to which everyone was invited. He became smarter and wiser. Everyone got what they deserved. Good heroes were happy, and the main villain Karabas-Barabas was left with nothing. That’s why I liked this book: everything in it is fair and reasonable.

      For girls (163 words). My favorite book is H.K. Anderson “Thumbelina”. This is a story about a little girl. She had to overcome a lot in order to eventually find her happiness.

      Thumbelina was stolen by a toad to marry her son. The heroine managed to trick them and escape. A cockchafer helped her fly off the water lily, which then left her alone in the forest. Winter was coming. The mouse did not let Thumbelina freeze. She took her in. Soon the girl was again offered to marry. This time for the neighbor of the field mouse, the blind mole.

      If the wedding took place, Thumbelina would have to spend her whole life underground. A swallow saved the poor woman from marriage. The heroine found this bird in the dwelling of the mole. She saved her from death and helped her fly away. The swallow has become a good friend for Thumbelina. She, having learned about the trouble, took Thumbelina with her to warm lands.

      There a little girl met an elf and lived happily ever after.

      What I like most about the book is that it teaches us that, despite all the difficulties, we must remain kind, sympathetic and believe in good things.

      4-5 grade

      For a boy (186 words). My favorite book is The Wizard of the Emerald City by Alexander Volkov. It seems to me that this fairy tale teaches the most important thing – friendship. Together, Ellie and her friends were able to cope with all the difficulties and make their wishes come true.

      Girl Ellie gets into a magical land because of a hurricane. There she befriends the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodman, and the Cowardly Lion. Each of them has their own dream. Scarecrow wants to get brains. The woodcutter wants a heart. And Leo dreams of becoming brave. Ellie – go home. These desires unite the heroes.

      Only a wizard could perform them. On the way to it, friends overcome many difficulties and become a real team. They support each other in everything. It is unity that helps them not to despair and go to the end even after they find out that the wizard will not be able to fulfill their desires.

      But magic is not magic, but faith in oneself.

      This is an interesting book with a good ending. The wizard did nothing to help the heroes, but they themselves were able to fulfill their dreams. They just lacked confidence. That is what friendship is. The Scarecrow, the Lion and the Woodcutter were invited to rule by different nations, whom they helped along the way. Ellie, thanks to the help of a kind sorceress, returned to her home.

      Girls (171 words). I read Sergei Aksakov’s fairy tale “The Scarlet Flower” with my mother before going to bed. This is my favorite book. This is a fairy tale about good and evil, about the fact that you can not judge a person by his appearance.

      The main heroine of the tale is the youngest daughter of the merchant, Nastenka. She asked her father for the most unusual gift – a scarlet flower. The father could not but fulfill the desire of his beloved daughter.

      True, in exchange for a flower, the monster, in whose garden the merchant picked a magic plant, ordered him to return back. But Nastenka loved her father very much and could not allow him to suffer because of her.

      She herself went to the monster, which turned out to be a bewitched Prince Charming. The sincere love of the girl broke the spell. She got married to the envy of her sisters. Played a bright wedding.

      I really liked this fairy tale because, in the end, sincere love was able to overcome everything. Good won, as it should. The merchant’s youngest daughter found happiness with the prince. Her father was happy for her. And the malevolent sisters could only envy aside. This is how it should be in life: good triumphs, and evil is punished.

      6-7 grade

      For a girl or a boy (200 words). Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets is one of a series of books by the world-famous writer JK Rowling.

      You may wonder why I chose her, because she is neither the first nor the last. But this story seemed to me the most interesting and entertaining.

      In my opinion, this part is not only imbued with magic, but also has the features of a detective.

      This time, the purpose of the adventure of Harry Potter and his friends is to find the secret room and the culprit of the attacks on the students. This is based on the legend that once a boy studied at Hogwarts at the Slytherin faculty, who believed that this school should be available only to purebred magicians.

      He was expelled for this, but there are rumors that he created a secret room in the school building, in which a terrible monster lives. This legend turns out to be true, and, as usual, Harry Potter is at the center of the revelation of a strange incident.

      With the help of Hermione’s quick wits, Ron’s encouragement, and Albus Dumbledore’s hints, Harry Potter defeats the basilisk, a huge poisonous snake that can kill with a look.

      The most fascinating thing in this book is the search for a secret room and the reasons for the development of strange events at Hogwarts. While reading, I tried to guess and get to the truth faster than the heroes. The appearance of new victims heats up the atmosphere, and the fight against the basilisk is the climax, after which everything becomes clear.

      Grade 8-9

      For a boy (245 words). The fantastic work by Alexander Belyaev “Professor Dowell’s Head” became my favorite book after I plunged into its atmosphere. In it, the extraordinary follows the even more surprising.

      Incredible experiments carried out by a scientist are described in such a way that one becomes convinced of the possibility of their real implementation. That is why Belyaev is the best Russian science fiction writer for me.

      I have read many of his works, but this is still my favorite.

      It is surprising that the main character of the novel is not a man, but only a part of him – the head, as it is stated in the title of the work. Professor Dowell is a great scientist who makes scientific experiments. He had an assistant, Kern, who was not afraid to turn Dowell’s death into his own hands.

      Kern performed an operation and separated the professor’s head from the body. From that moment on, the head was enclosed in a transparent flask and was in the complete power of the evil scientist. The professor was forced to help his former ally, and now enemy, in his new experiments on separating heads and arranging their life without a body.

      Kern wanted to become famous by appropriating the achievements of another person, but by a happy coincidence, he did not succeed. There were people who were ready to expose the liar and reveal the truth, despite all the difficulties. So Kern was brought to light, and the truth triumphed, although this led to a great sacrifice.

      Getting rid of the evidence, Kern with the help of drugs changed the head of Professor Dowell beyond recognition, from which she died.

      It seems to me that on the one hand, this entertaining novel with a fantastic plot can be read to relax and unwind, but, on the other hand, it gently teaches one simple truth: the truth will always prevail.

      Girls (222 words). War is our past, which should not be forgotten. I like military prose.

      This literature helps in the imagination to be on the battlefield and feel what happened almost a century ago. My favorite book is Boris Vasiliev’s novel “I wasn’t on the lists”.

      It does not contain a detailed description of military events, but with its sincerity it evokes the strongest emotions.

      Nikolai Pluzhnikov is in the spotlight. This is a young man, a lieutenant, who came to military service in Brest. Coming June 22 1941 years old, the Great Patriotic War begins.

      Nikolai heroically defended the fortress, led constant skirmishes with the enemy along with other detachments. The forces of the German troops outweighed, and the Soviet soldiers died one by one. Soon Nicholas was the only defender of the fortress.

      Despite the fact that he was alone, he still made sorties and exterminated enemies with all his might. This went on for 9 months. Randomly, once again hiding from the enemy, Pluzhnikov ended up in the same casemate with the girl Mirra.

      They fell in love and were expecting a child. Unfortunately, she did not manage to get out of the besieged fortress, she was brutally killed by the Germans. Nicholas was also found, and he was killed.

      Boris Vasiliev’s novel ends with words about how important it is to remember why soldiers loyal to their Motherland died. But this work tells not only about the hostilities taking place in the Brest Fortress, but, more importantly, about the life of a particular person who endured all the difficulties of the war with honor, having fulfilled his duty.

      10-11 grade

      For a boy (287 words). Orwell’s novel “1984” is unusual in that it is written about the past, present and future at the same time. Each reader can count in his own way.

      It is only undeniable that it describes the life of people living in a system of absolute totalitarianism. At the same time, it is essential that the author looks not only at the structure of the state apparatus.

      The focus is on the life of a frequent person – Winston Smith.

      The novel gives a fairly detailed description of the ministries that support the closed existence of the country and its inhabitants: the ministry of peace, truth, abundance and love.

      These state organizations control all spheres of life, monitor not only the present, but also correct history depending on the current foreign policy situation. They control the entire personal life of their people.

      However, oddly enough, the desire for complete subjugation of the population does not protect the state from the presence of free-thinking people who want to change the political system and their private lives as well. Winston is one of those people.

      He finds true love, which, of course, is also forbidden. Together with their beloved, they try to join the opposition society, but pretty soon they find themselves in the hands of the government.

      The most terrible moment in the novel is the conclusion of the protagonist. This moment is terrible not so much by the fact that Winston and his beloved were deprived of their freedom, but by the punishment intended for them.

      They were not jailed or sentenced to death, as one might think. They were chosen a much harsher fate.

      Through torture, physical and, even more terrible, psychological influences, the heroes were forced to admit the wrongness of their views and sincerely renounce them. It seems impossible. But… nothing is impossible.

      Orwell depicts before us not only a bloodthirsty world of total control over the personal life of the people, but, what is more terrible, he shows a society in which even the thoughts of citizens are monitored. Although, if you think about it, then people who do not have their own desires, feelings and thoughts, blindly obeying the will of the ruler, can only be called creatures …

      For girls. (288 words) Why do we read books? How do you choose your favorite from so many? There are no, and cannot be, unambiguous answers to these questions.

      It seems to me that we call a favorite a book that we read at the right moment, thanks to it, perhaps we managed to discover something new in ourselves, solve a problem, or find an answer to a question that has long been of concern.

      Tolstoy’s novel Anna Karenina turned out to be such a work for me.

      In the novel, the story is not only about the personal life of the main character, as it may seem from the title of the work. It has several storylines that are closely interconnected.

      In parallel, a story is told about Kitty Shcherbatskaya, who suffered from unrequited love, but eventually found family comfort and peace; about Konstantin Levin, who is looking for peace of mind and the meaning of life; about the disagreements and ordeals of Dolly and Stiva Oblonsky, and so on.

      In addition, the novel reflects social changes in society, shows the life and way of life not only of noble families, but also of peasants, describes the ways of managing the economy and various opinions of the nobles regarding the transformation of their estates. However, the work is not limited to socio-psychological problems.

      Tolstoy is not only a writer and publicist, but also a religious thinker. The theme of religion, acceptance of birth and death occupies an equally significant position in the novel. It is no coincidence that the only chapter to which the author gives a title is called “Death”. One of the main characters, Konstantin Levin, whose prototype was Tolstoy himself, is characterized by philosophical reflections on faith.

      I can say with confidence that Tolstoy’s novel “Anna Karenina” is so multifaceted that everyone can find a part of themselves in it, as I did. It can be called a work for all time.

      The characters’ personal searches, social problems and philosophical questions raised in it will always be in demand. Books give us invaluable life experience, and a favorite work can be re-read again and again, discovering new details in it.

      Tolstoy’s novel “Anna Karenina” became such for me.

      Composition on the topic My favorite book (grades 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9)

      A book often helps a person in difficult periods of life, distracts from routine problems and brings bright colors. From childhood, everyone usually listens to fairy tales about Cinderella and other world-famous characters at bedtime.

      However, children grow up, begin to explore the world of books on their own and acquire their own favorites, which they then repeatedly re-read.

      That is why in the classroom at literature lessons they write essays on the topic “My favorite book”.

      Essay My favorite book is The Wizard of Oz

      Once, I went to the library to return my school books. There were summer holidays, the weather was cloudy, I didn’t feel like walking at all. And to pass the time, I decided to sit in the reading room and read magazines or some interesting book.

      For a long time I wandered between the shelves with books and could not decide on a choice, as here, one very inconspicuous book caught my eye, it was called “The Wizard of the Emerald City”.

      Bright cover and unusual title aroused my interest in this literary work. I took the book, found myself a place in the reading room, and began to read.

      Only a library worker was able to stop me from reading when she said that the reading room was already closing. When I came to my senses, I saw that there was no one else in the room. «

      The Wizard of the Emerald City fascinated me so much that I lost track of time. I took this book home and read it as soon as I arrived. And then I read it over and over again. I never thought that a book could be so enjoyable. A very interesting idea.

      A girl who found herself in a magical land with her dog, who later finds such strange and wonderful friends for herself, made a very good impression on me.

      I am sure that I will re-read this fairy tale many more times, because now this book is my favorite!

      Rules for writing

      A feature of reasoning essays is strict adherence to the plan. Since this is most often graduation or preparatory work for the exam, a clear causal relationship should be traced in it.

      Do not jump from topic to topic abruptly, lyrical digressions should be short and appropriate. This type of writing is based on such a type of speech as reasoning.

      This means that as soon as an idea has been expressed on paper, it becomes necessary to substantiate it.

      Composition My favorite book The Little Prince

      There are many different ways to become happy in the world. But with age, people lose the opportunity to be like that, turning into slaves of their own limitations. But sometimes there are individuals who challenge this system of reality.

      Antoine Marie de Saint-Exupéry in the last century managed to show humanity the richness of the colors of the world. Thanks to a small child who decided to travel through asteroids, the world was able to plunge into a fairy tale a little.

      I like a book about the adventures of a little boy who did not understand adults and sincerely tried not to grow up. Thanks to this book, I learned to appreciate every second of my childhood.

      I began to notice details that would never have made me feel anything. In addition, the tale reveals the global problem of the disappearance of dreams from our world.

      Indeed, now it has become a priority to have financial well-being, not spiritual.

      This is sad, because there are people who have not yet deteriorated, these are children. And I sincerely place great hopes on children for whom social or financial status is not so important. They are the future. The book “The Little Prince” once again shows a clear example that there is nothing more beautiful in the world than children and their desires.

      Take care of the child in you and sometimes let him breathe deeply. From this, the world certainly does not pull worse …

      Review, review or review?

      First you need to understand how these concepts differ:

      • A review is a personal opinion about a book. You can tell whether you liked it or not, what about it hooked you or repulsed you.
      • A review is a review of storylines, a full description of what was written, your thoughts on the main theses of the book.
      • Review – a description of the book with highlights of interest. Such text usually encourages reading.

      If you are writing an essay about a book for school, then most likely you need to write a review about the book.

      Composition My favorite book is Harry Potter Grade 5

      Not so long ago, I read a book about a boy named Harry Potter. This book was recommended to me a long time ago, but I never really got into reading. But it was this book that made me reconsider my preferences.

      Such a magical story, about an ordinary boy whose life changes in an instant, in a way that he could not even imagine, involuntarily makes you believe that magic really exists, and it is among us. Even if we don’t even suspect it.

      I fell in love with this book because even though it is, of course, a fairy tale, you read it in one breath. An interesting, exciting plot allows you to participate in all the events of the story and go through all the trials and adventures along with the main character, Harry Potter and his faithful friends Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger.

      I would like there to be much more such interesting literature, and even in our life, I would like to have, though small, but still a piece of magic. Thanks to this book, in addition to an interesting plot, it taught me a lot. Be brave, do not turn away in the face of danger and always come to the aid of your true friends. Like Harry Potter did.

      Grades 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

      Basics

      An essay about my favorite book should be, first of all, sincere. There is no need to take the last read work just because it is easy to retell it briefly and isolate the semantic subtext. It is better to take a really favorite story, because it is much easier to write about what you value and respect.

      You can make a lyrical digression about the author of the work, but do not get too carried away with this, so as not to get away from the topic. As a rule, the ability to keep the topic within the framework is also assessed when checking the work. Before writing, you need to imagine in advance what to write about.

      What conclusions would you like to reach? Which argument will be the strongest? But, of course, the main thing is to determine your favorite work.

      The Catcher in the Rye

      D. Salinger’s The Catcher in the Rye has long been considered a classic of children’s and teen literature. Holden Caulfield is not the most ordinary guy, he has a different way of thinking, interesting, original thoughts, young people of his age are addicted to the opposite sex and drinking, and he wonders where the ducks from Central Park in New York disappear when the lake is covered with ice.

      He was kicked out of school numerous times, his parents placed him in the best private schools . However, in none of them did he stay for a long time due to:

      • a sharp tongue;
      • laziness;
      • defiant actions.

      But at the same time, Caulfield can hardly be called a bad person. He respects his parents, is upset that his mother will be sad because of another expulsion, and adores his sister Phoebe.

      He has no specific goals, he seems to be lost in this life, all he wants is to be in a huge field of rye over the abyss, where the kids will play, and when they run up to the edge, he will catch them.

      It seems that Holden was simply born at the wrong time and in the wrong environment. Many teenagers see themselves in the main character, just as lost and not understanding in society. The biography of the author Salinger will also be interesting, a whole film was even made about this with the title of his book, which became a world bestseller.

      Essay My favorite book Scarlet Sails Grade 6

      In the first grade, as soon as I learned to read, I signed up for the school library. The first book I wanted to read was Alexander Grin’s story Scarlet Sails. Of course, in the first grade I could not master this story, I read it and did not understand anything. But then, when I grew up a little and started reading a lot of books, I was struck by this book.

      One summer vacation, I opened a book, sat on a bench in the sun, and did not notice when I turned the last page. She fascinated me so much that I didn’t even notice how time flew by.

      Before my eyes, the childhood and youth of the main characters Assol and Grey, their dreams, their meeting were vividly imagined. They grew up and were brought up in families of different prosperity.

      But they were united by common features: the ability to dream and romanticism.

      In this work, the author confirms that any, even the most incredible dream can come true. The main thing is not to be afraid to dream and share your thoughts with loved ones.

      You have to believe that somewhere in the world you can find the only one who can make your dream come true.

      Perhaps not everyone around you will understand you and even make fun of you, but kindness and love always win. This is a bright story about faith in beauty and love.

      Grade 6

      Conclusions

      Inferences at the end of the essay emphasize the student’s opinion about what they read. Usually they begin with the words “Thus”, “So”, “From all of the above.”

      Do not overuse introductory words and repeat them everywhere. It is better to generalize using other speech turns.

      The richness of your language will be assessed first by the examiner, so a variety of epithets and metaphors will play into your hands.

      Essay My favorite book Snow Queen Grade 5

      Even in my early childhood, my mother and grandmother read Anderson’s fairy tales to me. One of them is the Snow Queen. I really enjoyed listening to a fascinating story about the adventures of a little but persistent girl Gerda. She was not afraid to go on a dangerous journey to save her friend Kai.

      Since childhood, they lived side by side, played and were friends. But one imprudent word of Kai angered the fabulous Snow Queen. She decided to take the boy and raise him as a cruel person with a cold heart. And little Gerda boldly rushed to the rescue of a friend.

      The girl met many good and evil heroes on her way. However, Gerda managed to convince each of them that there is nothing stronger than true friendship.

      And if it weren’t for her persistent character and warm heart, then perhaps Kai would never again be able to become an ordinary boy who knows how to enjoy just a beautiful flower on the window.

      What the book The Snow Queen teaches

      This book teaches you to value true friendship and not be afraid to overcome trials for the sake of loved ones. There can be many friends in life who are only called friends, but a true friend will always support you not only in joy, but also in trouble. Such friendship must be preserved.

      “The Master and Margarita”

      There are so many books in the modern world, and all of them are so diverse that it is problematic to find exactly what you need among them, however, as a rule, everyone has them.

      Favorite books are usually intertwined with a person’s own thoughts, with his fate, outlook on life, they resonate in the soul. In addition, they find a place in the corner of the author’s own heart.

      One of the first such books is Mikhail Bulgakov’s novel The Master and Margarita. Everyone remembers him from school, but not everyone loves him.

      The plot revolves around a strange company that suddenly appeared in Moscow. Woland and his retinue, the cat Behemoth and Koroviev are wreaking havoc and creating unrest, causing trouble to certain people. But it may seem so only at first glance.

      If the reader is smart enough, he will notice that Woland’s suggestion that bad things happen only to people who do not have the highest moral qualities:

      • to bribe-takers;
      • disbelievers;
      • by the critic, because of which the Master, one of the main goodies of the novel, lost everything.

      Satan himself, who in fact is Woland, declares in the work that he embodies evil that does good, and this is precisely the main idea of ​​the novel.

      This work is relevant even now, in the age of bribery and immoral officials.

      Who wouldn’t want such a retinue of Woland to suddenly appear and punish all the bad people? Well, where without a love line that will add romance to any work?

      Margarita’s great love for the Master, who is ready to sell her soul to Satan for him, is really amazing, you involuntarily begin to dream of the same.

      Composition My favorite book Robinson Crusoe Grade 6

      The great story of how the human mind overcomes incredible obstacles is forever ingrained in my heart. Robinson Crusoe is an example of what a real person should be.

      No, it does not mean that he should go to his goal, achieve everything. It’s obvious.

      No, the book tells an incredible story of the unity of man with nature, and shows with a clear example that people are not at all the rulers of the world, but only a part of it.

      Robinson Crusoe was based in part on a true story. The story begins with the protagonist’s ship caught in a storm. Because of this, the entire staff died, only the guy survived.

      And now he will have to survive on a desert island. An excellent exposition of how man must reunite with nature in order to get a chance at life from her.

      After all, the book says that you can’t renounce your mother, you need to protect and love her.

      My favorite character is Friday. Robinson’s only friend. He is shown as an inexperienced and frightened person. Thanks to him, it is easy to understand the futility and fragility of life.

      Robinson Crusoe is a chic philosophical book in which every person can find answers to many questions.

      This is a selection of essays for students in grades 2-11 on the topic “My favorite book.” Both boys and girls can find samples of essays here, since they have different tastes in reading. The only thing that students in grades 6-7 agreed on was the book “Harry Potter”, written by JK Rowling.

      Grades 2-3

      For boys

      (166 words) Not so long ago I read a wonderful book by the Russian writer A.N. Tolstoy “The Golden Key or the Adventures of Pinocchio”. She made a huge impression on me. This work tells about the adventures of a boy named Pinocchio, carved from an ordinary log by dad Carlo.

      At the very beginning of the tale, the wooden boy behaves like a capricious and naughty child. HE does not want to go to school and even sells the alphabet that his father bought him. Because of this, he was deceived by the fox Alice and the cat Basilio, street beggars, swindlers and thieves.

      But real friends were found – this is the girl Malvina, Pierrot and the dog Artemon, who helped Pinocchio find his place in life. The story, like all fairy tales, had a happy ending.

      Pinocchio, with the help of the old turtle Tortilla, found a golden key that brings happiness, opened a new puppet theater, in which his friends began to play.

      At the end of the tale, the boy became responsible, he changed a lot for the better, stopped being naughty and even went to school to gain knowledge,

      The main character Karabas-Barabas lost all his artists. This is a very good book, all the characters got what they deserved and take out useful lessons for yourself.

      For girls

      ( 199 words) I recently read a fairy tale by the great Danish storyteller G.Kh. Andersen’s “Thumbelina” The main character of the fairy tale is a tiny girl who went through serious trials to find her happiness.

      First, she was kidnapped by a fat toad who dreams of making the girl the wife of his ugly and lazy son. Then she was carried away by a cockchafer. He liked her, but when other bugs began to criticize her, he left Thumbelina in the forest.

      The whole summer the poor little girl lived alone under a leaf, drinking the dew and eating the nectar of the flowers. But when winter came, the girl almost died. The old field mouse took pity on her and let her live in her hole. In winter, Thumbelina found a frozen swallow in the underground labyrinth and began to care for her. Only thanks to the girl the bird recovered and flew away with the beginning of spring.

      And the mouse decided to marry Thumbelina to a rich blind mole. A terrible life awaited her in total darkness. The girl was very sad, she did not want to say goodbye to the sun.

      And then a kind swallow saved her, she took the baby away to distant lands where beautiful flowers bloom. There Thumbelina was met by elves – tiny creatures with wings behind their backs.

      The elf prince fell in love with Thumbelina and made her his wife.

      When I read this fairy tale, I realized that the most important thing in life is to believe in goodness and miracles and never lose heart.

      4-5 grade

      For boys

      ( 173 words) I really liked Alexander Volkov’s books “The Wizard of the Emerald City”, “Urfin Deuce and His Wooden Soldiers” and others. After reading them, I realized that the most important thing in life is friendship. It was friends who helped Ellie and Totoshka to return to their homeland from a magical land.

      Ellie’s house is blown away by a hurricane, which was unleashed by an evil sorceress. So a girl with a faithful dog gets into the country of winks. She needs to return home, but only a wizard can help.

      On the way to the capital, Ellie meets the Scarecrow who wants to get brains and become wise, the Tin Woodman who dreams of a loving heart, the cowardly Lion who wants to become brave.

      On the way to the Emerald City, our friends face various dangers, but they still get to the goal.

      The wizard says that he will definitely fulfill their dreams, but first Ellie must deal with the evil sorceress Bastinda, and her friends must help her in this. Only mutual assistance helped our heroes cope with this assignment.

      The tale ends very well: Ellie returns home, and her friends stay in a magical land and rule its peoples. The author believes that no magic is needed if there is true friendship and self-confidence.

      For girls

      (187 words) When I was little, my mother used to read Sergei Aksakov’s fairy tale “The Scarlet Flower” to me. Now I re-read it on my own and realized that you can’t judge a person by their appearance. The main thing is what this person is inside, what character he has, how he treats other people.

      The merchant had three daughters, and her youngest beloved Nastya asked me to bring her an unusual gift from distant lands – a scarlet flower. Returning home, the merchant ended up on an island where this magical flower grew. BUT when he tore it off, there was a thunder, a roar and a monster appeared, which demanded that the merchant return to the island for his deed.

      Having learned about this, Nastenka, who loved her father most of all, went to the island instead of him.

      At first she was afraid of the monster, but then his kind heart conquered the girl, and she sincerely fell in love with the monster, who turned out to be an enchanted prince. To the envy of her older sisters, Nastenka got married, and her wedding was talked about all over the country.

      I really liked that the older envious sisters were punished, they wanted to harm Nastenka, but they did not succeed. This is how it should be in life, good always triumphs over evil, justice triumphs, and evil and envious people understand that they did not succeed.

      6-7 grades

      For girls and boys

      (163 words) All the children read books and watched movies about Harry Potter. I also recently read several books from this series, written by the English writer JK Rowling. My favorite book was Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. In this book, of course, there is a lot of magic and magic, but there is also a detective story that attracts me very much.

      Harry and his friends were looking for the secret room and the one who secretly attacked the students.

      An old legend goes around the school, which says that once upon a time there was a boy who studied at Hogarth, who believed that only purebred magicians should study at this school. This legend, oddly enough, turned out to be true.

      And Harry, with the help of Hermione and Ron, as well as using the tips of Albus Dumbledore, finds and destroys the basilisk, a terrible snake that can kill with one glance.

      The plot of the book keeps the reader in suspense. Harry and his friends are looking for a room, and I, reading about their adventures, tried to solve all the riddles that my favorite characters faced on my own. The culmination of the plot is the battle with the basilisk, after which everything becomes clear.

      ( 272 words) A real discovery for me was the book of the science fiction writer Alexander Belyaev “Professor Dowell’s Head”. Reading this book, you involuntarily forget that the author wrote a fantastic work, you believe in everything that happens on the pages of the story and you are surprised at the possibilities of human genius.

      Following this book, I read other works by Belyaev, but The Head of Professor Dowell still remained my favorite story. Amazing scientific discoveries, betrayal and loyalty to the idea, a clearly calibrated detective story – all this made me dizzy and did not let me tear myself away from the book even late at night.

      Professor Dowell, the protagonist of the book, a world leader in medicine, constantly struggled with the problem of organ transplantation. And he got some results. But when he had an accident, his student Kern, announcing to everyone that the great scientist had died, separated his head and placed it over a vessel with a solution that not only supported life in the head, but even allowed the brain to function.

      Now the professor’s head was completely under the control of Kernaz, the evil genius, and if it were not for the constant presence of a nurse who looked after the professor’s head, talked and supported hope, then the fate of the unfortunate scientist would have been extremely sad.

      Kern wanted to achieve more: he experimented on people, dreamed of learning how to transplant heads onto other people’s bodies. HE wanted worldwide fame and great wealth, at any cost.

      BUT the professor did not want to give such a weapon into the hands of a bad person, he deceived his former student, dictated to him the wrong formula of the nutrient solution and as a result he himself died. The whole world shuddered when people learned about Kern’s experiments and about the terrible death of Professor Dowell.

      This book gives you a lot to think about. And although on the one hand this is an exciting read, on the other hand it teaches devotion to one’s idea, firmness of convictions, true friendship and, of course, rightly asserts that the truth will conquer all.

      For girls

      ( 230 words) I have always believed that our peers should read as much as possible about the war. We must never forget the suffering the war brought to our people. I recently read a book by Boris Vasiliev “I wasn’t on the lists”, and she shocked me with her veracity.

      Young Lieutenant Nikolai Pluzhnikov has just graduated from a military school and arrived at his place of service in the city of Brest. It was June 21, 1941. A few hours later, the most terrible war in the history of mankind began. Nikolai had not even managed to check in at the place of service, as he already had to defend the fortress with weapons in his hands.

      The defenders of the fortress fiercely defended themselves, but the forces were unequal, and the soldiers of the Red Army died one after another. Once Nikolai met a Jewish girl Mirra in an underground casemate, in these terrible days the young people became close and fell in love with each other. But their happiness did not last long, when Mirra tried to leave the dungeon, she was killed by the Nazis.

      Soon Nikolai was left alone, but he still considered it his duty to leave the dungeon every day and kill at least one fascist soldier. HE held out for nine months, and the Nazis could not do anything with him.

      Boris Vasiliev, with all his works, tries to instill in his readers that the most important thing for any person is memory. We need to remember those who defended their homeland, not sparing their lives. None of our sacrifices can compare with what our grandfathers and great-grandfathers endured, we just need to try to be worthy of our ancestors.

      For boys

      (270 words) Orwell’s novel “1984” tells about the past, present and future almost simultaneously. Each reader will understand it differently. The only thing that their opinions agree on is that the novel speaks of people’s lives under complete totalitarianism.

      In the center of the novel is the life and fate of one person – Winston Smith. The author describes in great detail the work of the ministries that support the life of the state in a certain order once and for all: the ministry of truth, friendship, love and peace.

      • These organs vigilantly monitor not only each person individually and the functioning of all governing bodies, but even correct history if something in the past interferes with an ideally measured order.
      • It would seem that in such a perfectly arranged world there is no place for freethinkers, but, oddly enough, there are people who are dissatisfied with the existing order, they dream of changing the system of government, becoming free and independent.
      • Winston must be included among such people, he finds true love, which is also impossible in this state, and, together with his beloved, enters into opposition.

      But soon their party is in the hands of those in power, Winston and his girlfriend also find themselves in the dungeon. This is the climax of the novel.

      These pages are just creepy to read: young people are threatened not only with years of imprisonment and even the death penalty.

      No, under pain of painful torture they are being forced to give up their convictions, their faith in the future, their hope for freedom. It would seem impossible to do this, but it turns out that nothing is impossible in that world.

      Orwell’s art lies in the fact that he not only shows the horror of a totalitarian state that regulates the private life of citizens, but also keeps their thoughts, feelings and emotions in check. The author clearly shows that people deprived of independent thinking, will and convictions have no right to be called people, they are just thinking beings… And why read books, many of my peers think. BUT after all, reading a really good book, recognizing its characters, you yourself find yourself in the magical world of someone else’s fantasy.

      How does a book become a favorite? This is a difficult question.

      Probably, if even after turning the last page, you do not part with its characters, return to the plot in your thoughts, argue with the author, and the characters become friends, then this book will stay with you forever.

      The novel by L.N. Tolstoy “Anna Karenina”. This novel is dedicated not just to one woman, as the title implies, there are several storylines, the fates of different people are closely intertwined, they become close to each other, then part, as it happens in real life.

      From the very first line of the novel, one is amazed at the depth of the author’s worldview. Indeed, all happy families are very similar, and the unfortunate ones carry the secret of their misfortune.

      Kitty and her lover Konstantin Levin became close to me as well; and Dolly, the wife of Stiva Oblonsky, an eternally tortured wife and mother, as well as Stiva himself, a cheerful, charming reveler who was constantly torn between duty and desire.

      Konstantin Levin’s views on life, society and religion are interesting. The fact is that this hero is the prototype of the author himself.

      Tolstoy put into his mouth his thoughts about religion, about the place of man, about birth and death.

      The only chapter that has a title in this novel is called “Death”, probably because the author himself thought a lot about what awaits a person after death, how our existence on earth ends.

      I know for sure that in this novel every reader will find something important and necessary for himself. I am sure that I will re-read this book many more times, because the genius of L.N.

      Tolstoy tries to answer the philosophical questions that have interested mankind since ancient times.

      What is happiness? Is it possible to be happy in this world? Why does a person come into this world? What is its purpose?

      The heroes of his novel also asked these questions, they were looking for themselves and their happiness in this world. Love stories are closely intertwined with the socio-political processes that took place in society at the turn of the century. And this is right, because a person does not live separately from society, he is an integral part of it.

      Good books give us invaluable experience, convey the wisdom of our ancestors – and for me the novel by L.N. Tolstoy was a real revelation.

      Essay My favorite book is The Wizard of Oz

      Once, I went to the library to turn in my school books. There were summer holidays, the weather was cloudy, I didn’t feel like walking at all. And to pass the time, I decided to sit in the reading room and read magazines or some interesting book.

      For a long time I wandered between the shelves with books and could not decide on a choice, but then, I came across one very inconspicuous book, it was called “The Wizard of the Emerald City”. The bright cover and unusual title aroused my interest in this literary work. I took the book, found myself a place in the reading room, and began to read. Only a librarian could stop me from reading when she said that the reading room was already closing. When I came to my senses, I saw that there was no one else in the room. ”

      The Wizard of Emerald City “captivated me so much that I lost track of time. I took this book home and finished reading it right after my arrival. And then I read it again and again. I never thought that I could like the book so much. “A girl who got into a magical land with her dog, who later finds such strange and amazing friends for herself, made a very good impression on me. I am sure that I will re-read this fairy tale many more times, because now, this book is my favorite!

      Essay My favorite book The Little Prince

      There are many different ways to become happy in the world. But with age, people lose the opportunity to be like that, turning into slaves of their own limitations. But sometimes there are individuals who challenge this system of reality.

      Antoine Marie de Saint-Exupéry in the last century managed to show humanity the richness of the colors of the world. Thanks to a small child who decided to travel through asteroids, the world was able to plunge into a fairy tale a little.

      I like a book about the adventures of a little boy who didn’t understand adults and sincerely tried to “not grow up”.
      Thanks to this book, I learned to appreciate every second of my childhood. I began to notice details that would never have made me feel anything. In addition, the tale reveals the global problem of the disappearance of dreams from our world. Indeed, now it has become a priority to have financial well-being, not spiritual.

      This is sad, because there are people who have not yet deteriorated, these are children. And I sincerely place great hopes on children for whom social or financial status is not so important. They are the future. The book “The Little Prince” once again shows a clear example that there is nothing more beautiful in the world than children and their desires.

      Take care of the child in you and sometimes let him breathe deeply. This certainly does not make the world worse…

      Composition My favorite book is Harry Potter 5th grade

      Not so long ago, I read a book about a boy named Harry Potter. This book was recommended to me a long time ago, but I never really got into reading. But it was this book that made me reconsider my preferences.

      Such a magical story, about an ordinary boy whose life changes in an instant, in a way that he could not even imagine, involuntarily makes you believe that magic really exists, and it is among us. Even if we don’t even suspect it.

      I fell in love with this book because even though it is, of course, a fairy tale, you read it in one breath. An interesting, exciting plot allows you to participate in all the events of the story and go through all the trials and adventures along with the main character, Harry Potter and his faithful friends Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger.

      I would like there to be much more such interesting literature, and even in our life, we would like to have a piece of magic, albeit a small one. Thanks to this book, in addition to an interesting plot, it taught me a lot. Be brave, do not turn away in the face of danger and always come to the aid of your true friends. Like Harry Potter did.

There are a lot of ideas in his head, some kind of prank immediately comes to him, and he is always in search of adventure. I like Tom as a character, he is my idol, I also want to be smart, brave, a true friend and a good conversationalist. Tom is a good friend with him it is interesting to come up with exciting tasks together.

      How touching he is to Becky for her he will risk his life. When I’m sick and my friends can’t come to visit me because they’re at school, or they don’t get sick, I open the book “The Adventures of Tom Sawyer” and my mood immediately rises, which charges me with positive all day long.

      Essay My favorite book Scarlet sails 6th grade

      In the first grade, as soon as I learned to read, I signed up for the school library. The first book I wanted to read was Alexander Grin’s story Scarlet Sails. Of course, in the first grade I could not master this story, I read it and did not understand anything. But then, when I grew up a little and started reading a lot of books, I was struck by this book.

      One summer vacation, I opened a book, sitting on a bench in the sun, and did not notice when I turned the last page. She fascinated me so much that I didn’t even notice how time flew by. Before my eyes, both the childhood and the youth of the main characters Assol and Gray, their dreams, their meeting were vividly imagined. They grew up and were brought up in families of different prosperity. But they were united by common features: the ability to dream and romanticism.

      In this work, the author confirms that any, even the most incredible dream can come true. The main thing is not to be afraid to dream and share your thoughts with loved ones. You need to believe that somewhere in the world you can find the only one who can realize your dream. Perhaps not everyone around will understand you and will even make fun of you, but kindness and love always win. This is a bright story about faith in beauty and love.

      Essay My favorite book Snow Queen 5th grade

      When I was very young, my mother and grandmother used to read Anderson’s fairy tales to me. One of them is the Snow Queen. I really enjoyed listening to a fascinating story about the adventures of a little but persistent girl Gerda. She was not afraid to go on a dangerous journey to save her friend Kai.

      Since childhood they lived nearby, played and were friends. But one imprudent word of Kai angered the fabulous Snow Queen. She decided to take the boy and raise him as a cruel person with a cold heart. And little Gerda boldly rushed to the rescue of a friend. The girl on her way met many good and evil heroes. However, Gerda managed to convince each of them that there is nothing stronger than true friendship. And if it were not for her persistent character and warm heart, then perhaps Kai could never again become an ordinary boy who knows how to enjoy just a beautiful flower on the window.

      What the book The Snow Queen teaches

      This book teaches you to value true friendship and not be afraid to overcome trials for the sake of loved ones. There can be many friends in life who are only called friends, but a true friend will always support you not only in joy, but also in trouble. Such friendship must be preserved.

      Composition My favorite book Robinson Crusoe Grade 6

      The great story of how the human mind overcomes incredible obstacles is forever rooted in my heart. Robinson Crusoe is an example of what a real person should be. No, it does not mean that he should go to his goal, achieve everything. It’s obvious. No, the book tells an incredible story of the unity of man with nature, and shows with a clear example that people are not at all the rulers of the world, but only a part of it.

      Robinson Crusoe was based in part on a true story. The story begins with the protagonist’s ship caught in a storm. Because of this, the entire staff died, only the guy survived. And now he will have to survive on a desert island.
      An excellent exposition of how man must reunite with nature in order to get a chance at life from her. After all, the book says that you can’t renounce your mother, you need to keep and love her.

      My favorite character is Friday. Robinson’s only friend. He is shown as an inexperienced and frightened person. Thanks to him, it is easy to understand the futility and fragility of life.

      Robinson Crusoe is a chic philosophical book in which every person can find answers to many questions.

      Essay My favorite book Encyclopedia

      When I was in the first grade, I started reading one very useful encyclopedia book called “Encyclopedia of Traditional Medicine”. Ever since then, I have dreamed of becoming a doctor. I have not yet decided on the direction for sure, but I already know for sure that I want to help people, treat them and thereby benefit others.

      I learned a lot of useful information from this book. What are the diseases, how to treat them, what needs to be done to avoid this and how can you provide first aid to a person in trouble. Of course, at first all these medical terms, the names of diseases and medicines, were not clear to me, and some I even pronounce with difficulty. But over time, I became more and more interested in this encyclopedia and discover the wonderful world of medicine.

      This book influenced me in the most positive way, it helped me decide on my future profession, and this is very important for every person.

      It is very pleasant that among the many, frankly, unnecessary printed editions, there are books with which you want to go through life. I am sure that I will become a doctor, I will save people and I will read my favorite encyclopedia book from cover to cover more than once.

      For a boy (156 words). Recently I read an entertaining book by the Russian writer Tolstoy A.N., which is called “The Golden Key, or the Adventure of Pinocchio. ” I really liked this book. It tells about the adventure of Pinocchio, a boy made of logs by Papa Carlo.

      At the beginning of the book Pinocchio behaves like a child. He decides not to go to school and sells his alphabet. Due to the fact that he did not obey his father and did it his own way, he was deceived by Alice the Fox and Basilio the Cat. Then he almost got caught by the bloodthirsty Karabas-Barabas. Fortunately, his friends helped him: Piero, Malvina and Artemon. Pinocchio met them by chance, trying to hide from the villains, in which the Fox Alice and the Cat Basilio dressed up.

      Everything ended well. Pinocchio, thanks to the help of Turtle Tortila, found the key and opened a new puppet theater, to which everyone was invited. He became smarter and wiser. Everyone got what they deserved. Good heroes were happy, and the main villain Karabas-Barabas was left with nothing. That’s why I liked this book: everything in it is fair and reasonable.


      For girls (163 words). My favorite book is H.K. Anderson “Thumbelina”. This is a story about a little girl. She had to overcome a lot in order to eventually find her happiness.

      Thumbelina was stolen by a toad to marry her son. The heroine managed to trick them and escape. A cockchafer helped her fly off the water lily, which then left her alone in the forest. Winter was coming. The mouse did not let Thumbelina freeze. She took her in. Soon the girl was again offered to marry. This time for the neighbor of the field mouse, the blind mole. If the wedding took place, Thumbelina would have to spend her whole life underground. A swallow saved the poor woman from marriage. The heroine found this bird in the dwelling of the mole. She saved her from death and helped her fly away. The swallow has become a good friend for Thumbelina. She, having learned about the trouble, took Thumbelina with her to warm lands. There the little girl met an elf and lived happily ever after.

      What I like most about the book is that it teaches us that, despite all the difficulties, we must remain kind, sympathetic and believe in good things.

      4-5 grade

      For a boy (186 words). My favorite book is The Wizard of the Emerald City by Alexander Volkov. It seems to me that this fairy tale teaches the most important thing – friendship. Together, Ellie and her friends were able to cope with all the difficulties and make their wishes come true.

      Girl Ellie gets into a magical land because of a hurricane. There she befriends the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodman, and the Cowardly Lion. Each of them has their own dream. Scarecrow wants to get brains. The woodcutter wants a heart. And Leo dreams of becoming brave. Ellie – go home. These desires unite the heroes. Only a wizard could do them. On the way to it, friends overcome many difficulties and become a real team. They support each other in everything. It is unity that helps them not to despair and go to the end even after they find out that the wizard will not be able to fulfill their desires. But magic is not magic, but faith in oneself.

      This is an interesting book with a good ending. The wizard did nothing to help the heroes, but they themselves were able to fulfill their dreams. They just lacked confidence. That is what friendship is. The Scarecrow, the Lion and the Woodcutter were invited to rule by different nations, whom they helped along the way. Ellie, thanks to the help of a kind sorceress, returned to her home.


      Girls (171 words). I read Sergei Aksakov’s fairy tale “The Scarlet Flower” with my mother before going to bed. This is my favorite book. This is a fairy tale about good and evil, about the fact that you can not judge a person by his appearance.

      The main heroine of the tale is the youngest daughter of the merchant, Nastenka. She asked her father for the most unusual gift – a scarlet flower. The father could not but fulfill the desire of his beloved daughter. True, in exchange for a flower, the monster, in whose garden the merchant plucked a magical plant, ordered him to return back. But Nastenka loved her father very much and could not allow him to suffer because of her. She herself went to the monster, which actually turned out to be an enchanted prince handsome. The sincere love of the girl broke the spell. She got married to the envy of her sisters. Played a bright wedding.

      I liked this tale very much because in the end, sincere love was able to overcome everything. Good won, as it should. The merchant’s youngest daughter found happiness with the prince. Her father was happy for her. And the malevolent sisters could only envy aside. This is how it should be in life: good triumphs, and evil is punished.

      For girl or boy (200 words). Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets is one of a series of books by the world-famous writer JK Rowling. You may wonder why I chose her, because she is not the first and not the last. But this story seemed to me the most interesting and entertaining. In my opinion, this part is not only imbued with magic, but also has the features of a detective.

      This time around, Harry Potter and his friends are on an adventure to find the secret room and the culprit behind the attacks on the students. This is based on the legend that once a boy studied at Hogwarts at the Slytherin faculty, who believed that this school should be available only to purebred magicians. For this, he was expelled, but there are rumors that he created a secret room in the school building, in which a terrible monster lives. This legend turns out to be true, and, as usual, Harry Potter is at the center of the revelation of a strange incident. With the help of Hermione’s quick wits, Ron’s encouragement, and Albus Dumbledore’s hints, Harry Potter defeats the basilisk, a huge poisonous snake that can kill with a look.

      The most fascinating thing in this book is the search for a secret room and the reasons for the development of strange events at Hogwarts. While reading, I tried to guess and get to the truth faster than the heroes. The appearance of new victims heats up the atmosphere, and the fight against the basilisk is the climax, after which everything becomes clear.

      For a boy (245 words). The fantastic work by Alexander Belyaev “Professor Dowell’s Head” became my favorite book after I plunged into its atmosphere. In it, the extraordinary follows the even more surprising. The incredible experiments conducted by the scientist are described in such a way that you become convinced of the possibility of their real implementation. That is why Belyaev is the best Russian science fiction writer for me. I have read many of his works, but this is still my favorite.

      It is surprising that the main character of the novel is not a man, but only a part of him – the head, as it is stated in the title of the work. Professor Dowell is a great scientist who makes scientific experiments. He had an assistant, Kern, who was not afraid to turn Dowell’s death into his own hands. Kern performed the operation and separated the professor’s head from the body. From that moment on, the head was enclosed in a transparent flask and was in the complete power of the evil scientist. The professor was forced to help his former ally, and now enemy, in his new experiments on separating heads and arranging their life without a body. Kern wanted to become famous by appropriating the achievements of another person, but by a happy coincidence, he did not succeed. There were people who were ready to expose the liar and reveal the truth, despite all the difficulties. So Kern was brought to light, and the truth triumphed, although this led to a great sacrifice. Getting rid of the evidence, Kern, with the help of drugs, changed the head of Professor Dowell beyond recognition, from which she died.

      It seems to me that on the one hand, this entertaining novel with a fantastic plot can be read to relax and unwind, but, on the other hand, it gently teaches one simple truth: the truth will always prevail.


      Girls (222 words). War is our past, which should not be forgotten. I like military prose. This literature helps in the imagination to find oneself on the field of hostilities and feel what happened almost a century ago. My favorite book is Boris Vasiliev’s novel “I wasn’t on the lists”. It does not contain a detailed description of military events, but with its sincerity it evokes the strongest emotions.

      Nikolai Pluzhnikov is in the spotlight. This is a young man, a lieutenant, who came to military service in Brest. Comes June 22, 1941, the Great Patriotic War begins. Nikolai heroically defended the fortress, led, together with other detachments, constant skirmishes with the enemy. The forces of the German troops outweighed, and the Soviet soldiers died one by one. Soon Nicholas was the only defender of the fortress. Despite the fact that he was alone, he still made sorties and exterminated enemies with all his might. This went on for 9months. Randomly, once again hiding from the enemy, Pluzhnikov ended up in the same casemate with the girl Mirra. They fell in love and were expecting a child. Unfortunately, she did not manage to get out of the besieged fortress, she was brutally killed by the Germans. Nicholas was also found, and he was killed.

      Boris Vasiliev’s novel ends with words about how important it is to remember why soldiers loyal to their Motherland died. But this work tells not only about the hostilities taking place in the Brest Fortress, but, more importantly, about the life of a particular person who endured all the difficulties of the war with honor, fulfilling his duty.

      10-11 grade

      For a boy (287 words). Orwell’s novel “1984” is unusual in that it is written about the past, present and future at the same time. Each reader can count in his own way. It is only undeniable that it describes the life of people living in a system of absolute totalitarianism. At the same time, it is essential that the author looks not only at the structure of the state apparatus. The focus is on the life of a frequent face – Winston Smith.

      The novel gives a fairly detailed description of the ministries that support the closed existence of the country and its inhabitants: the ministry of peace, truth, abundance and love. These state organizations control all spheres of life, monitor not only the present, but also correct history depending on the current foreign policy situation. They control the entire personal life of their people. However, oddly enough, the desire for complete subjugation of the population does not protect the state from the presence of free-thinking people who want to change the political system and their private lives as well. Winston is one of those people. He finds true love, which, of course, is also forbidden. Together with their beloved, they try to join the opposition society, but pretty soon they find themselves in the hands of the government.

      The most terrible moment in the novel is the conclusion of the protagonist. This moment is terrible not so much by the fact that Winston and his beloved were deprived of their freedom, but by the punishment intended for them. They were not jailed or sentenced to death, as one might think. They were chosen a much harsher fate. By torture, physical and, even worse, psychological influences, the heroes were forced to admit the wrongness of their views and sincerely renounce them. It seems impossible. But… nothing is impossible.

      Orwell depicts before us not only a bloodthirsty world of total control over the personal life of the people, but, what is worse, he shows a society in which even the thoughts of citizens are monitored. Although, if you think about it, then people who do not have their own desires, feelings and thoughts, blindly obeying the will of the ruler, can only be called creatures …


      For a girl. (288 words) Why do we read books? How do you choose your favorite from so many? There are no, and cannot be, unambiguous answers to these questions. It seems to me that we call a favorite a book that we read at the right time, thanks to it, perhaps we managed to discover something new in ourselves, solve a problem, or find an answer to a long-standing question. For me, Tolstoy’s novel “Anna Karenina” turned out to be such a work.

      In the novel, the story is not only about the personal life of the main character, as it may seem from the title of the work. It has several storylines that are closely interconnected. In parallel, a story is told about Kitty Shcherbatskaya, who suffered from unrequited love, but who eventually found family comfort and peace; about Konstantin Levin, who is looking for peace of mind and the meaning of life; about the disagreements and ordeals of Dolly and Stiva Oblonsky, and so on. In addition, the novel reflects social changes in society, shows the life and life of not only noble families, but also peasants, describes the ways of managing the economy and the various opinions of the nobles regarding the transformation of their estates. However, the work is not limited to socio-psychological problems. Tolstoy is not only a writer and publicist, but also a religious thinker. The theme of religion, acceptance of birth and death occupies an equally significant position in the novel. It is no coincidence that the only chapter to which the author gives a title is called “Death”. One of the main characters, Konstantin Levin, whose prototype was Tolstoy himself, is characterized by philosophical reflections on faith.

      I can say with confidence that Tolstoy’s novel “Anna Karenina” is so multifaceted that everyone can find a part of themselves in it, as I did. It can be called a work for all time. Personal searches of heroes, social problems and philosophical questions raised in it will always be in demand. Books give us invaluable life experience, and a favorite work can be re-read again and again, discovering new details in it. Tolstoy’s novel “Anna Karenina” became such for me.

      Mini essays on the topic “Book”

      Option 1. “Book our friend and adviser”

      The book is indeed our friend and adviser, by reading the book we discover something new for ourselves, the book advises us, tells us what to do if something serious happens. Read books and be much smarter and wiser. The book is also the best gift for any holiday. After all, from the book we can learn almost anything. The books contain various sciences such as: physics, chemistry, mathematics, history and many others. The book never hurts, but rather helps in any situation.

      Option 2. “A book is a man’s best friend”

      From childhood, a book helps us to understand the world. First, parents read fairy tales to us, from which we learn what is good and what is bad. We learn new things for ourselves, draw conclusions, learn from the mistakes of characters in stories from books. After a while we go to school. There begins the road on which we and books are inseparable. We learn to write, read, count. We learn most of this information from teachers, but books help us consolidate and improve our knowledge.

      Throughout our lives, books interact with us continuously. They always give us the information we need. We can read a book at leisure or use it for learning. Books are always there, you can always count on them, which is why we can consider books as best friends.

      Option 3. “My favorite book”

      My favorite book is the immortal work of Joan Kathleen Rowling – Harry Potter.

      Why did I love this book? First, like any child, I did not like to read. But, oddly enough, this book was special. I didn’t want to leave her and go watch TV or play outside, no. I wanted to know what would happen next to the Boy-Who-Lived. Secondly, this book was not boring and annoying, there was a lot of adventure and magic in it. And what child would not want to dream and plunge into the world of magic? I think there are very few of them. And despite the fact that more than 10 years have passed, I still immerse myself in this wonderful world created by Rowling, like for the first time. And rest assured, I will be diving into it for a long time to come. After all, Harry Potter is not a children’s fairy tale, it is a whole era, a whole life.

      Option 4. “Book”

      What could be more interesting than reading a good book? Reading, you find yourself in a mysterious world, transported into the past or future. A book… such a simple word, but how much it contains. It is from books that we learn the answers to the questions that interest us. After reading this or that book, we sometimes change our view of the world around us, and rightly so – only in the search can you find your true “I”. It is a pity that at the moment such familiar childhood friends as books have been replaced by various Internet technologies and electronic games. There are many books, they teach us the sciences, help us navigate our lives. I love reading books, it helps with my studies.

      Option 5. “A book read in the summer”

      I have read several books, but the most memorable book is A. Green’s.

      Assol was the only daughter of the old sailor Longren, her mother died five years ago. In the village, her father was hated, and the girl was considered crazy. As a child, she had a toy, a small yacht with scarlet sails, and the old storyteller Aigle told her that when she grew up, the prince would come for her on the same ship and take her away with him. Every day she went to the seashore and looked into the distance with hope.

      Arthur Gray was a very rich, but kind and helpful man. When he grew up, he ran away from home and came to the schooner “Anselm” as a sailor. Having learned maritime affairs, he bought himself a three-masted galliot “Secret”, and one day fate led to the shores where Assol lived. He met her by chance and fell in love.

      From various people he learned the girl’s story and that she was waiting for a ship with scarlet sails. He sewed scarlet silk sails, took on board the wandering musician Zimmer, and arrived at the village where Assol lived. The girl was amazed that the storyteller’s prediction came true, and boarded the ship.

      This is interesting: A. for the reader’s diary.

      A beautiful tender tale about love and that you need to believe in a good future, be kind, do not hurt or hurt anyone, and your life will be fabulous.

      “Books, like people, have their own destiny” – essay

      Option 1

      As you know, all people on this planet are unique. Each has its own individual character, its own destiny. You may be surprised, but books are also unique. They, like people, have their own destiny and character.

      And, unlike us, books sometimes conceal thousands of lives and destinies. These are the fates and lives of all the heroes who are mentioned in this story. Some of them are destined to die, while others are to win our hearts. We read and experience together with the characters, weep when they are in pain and rejoice when they are happy. We live their lives.

      But each book, in addition to the fate of the characters, has its own fate. Some works are destined to become classics. This is and, and “Eugene Onegin”, and “Master and Margarita”. These works were created in order to make people think. This is their destiny.

      There are books that are not accepted by society. This is also their destiny. Let us recall the second volume of the poem Dead Souls. The fate of this book is to burn at the stake. There are books whose fate is to gather dust on the shelf.

      And some books are passed down in the family from generation to generation. Therefore, even without opening the work, you can see its history. To do this, you just need to look at the binding. After all, if you think about it, you can understand that dozens, maybe even hundreds of people held this very book before you. They all left a part of themselves in this book.

      And each book teaches something. Some are about friendship. Others about love, exploits. Some carry the history of the war. So each book has its own character.

      I remember when I was a child I had a book of fairy tales. It had a tattered cover, some of the pages had been torn out and reattached with tape. On some pages I saw sweeping drawings in blue pen, but I still loved this book with all my heart. There were so many good and kind tales in it that made me smile. I read it every day before bed. My mother told me that the book was in such a state because it belonged to my grandmother. And every time I picked up these fairy tales, I imagined how my grandmother did the same thing when she was little.

      Certainly, every book has a destiny. And this destiny is to make people happy with their stories.

      Option 2

      A book is not only leaflets bound in a printing house into thick or thin folders. The book carries such information that it is a weapon stronger than atomic or nuclear. In order to subdue the people to their will, it is necessary to take away from them the source of knowledge – the book.

      That’s exactly what the Nazis did. They collected books by their own writers and poets – Heine, Schiller, and burned them in huge bonfires. The Nazis needed stupid animals, not thinking people.

      People are brought up on books. Their heroes become educators. Here, for example, is the book “” by Nikolai Ostrovsky. An entire generation grew up on it. This book has a strong, iron character. Young people wanted to be like Pavka Korchagin. True, now the school does not study this work.

      And the books of my favorite author – A.S. . They teach both love for the Motherland and love for a woman. Who can compare with such lyrical, full of love, poems that the poet dedicated to his beloved women? His books, I am sure, will be read in the future.

      Detective novels about Sherlock Holmes, which my mother reads so much. These books have the character of a detective. They teach observation, the ability to notice little things, analyze everything. The method of deduction described by the author of the novels is successfully used not only in detective work. It can also be applied in everyday life.

      After reading Benjamin’s novel, many boys and girls signed up for flying clubs. Everyone wanted to be like the main character Sanya Grigoriev. This book has a stubborn, strong, purposeful character, like the protagonist, who nevertheless fulfilled his word and found the missing expedition. My mom really likes this novel.

      There are books that have outlived their author. This, for example, is the book “Timur and his team” by Arkady Gaidar. After the publication, the “Timurov movement” arose in the country. Boys and girls everywhere helped old people. Arkady Gaidar died in the war, but his book lives on. This book has the character of a boy who is smart and mature beyond his years.

      There are books for women on knitting and cookbooks. They have a feminine character. Cookbooks smell delicious – they are passed down from generation to generation, from grandmother to mother, and then daughter. They visited more than one kitchen, absorbed delicious smells.

      And in books on knitting, you can find pieces of thread, sometimes forgotten knitting needles. These books are hard workers. They have a soft feminine character.

      Mothers give children’s books to other children when they grow up. And there are coloring books where young children color their first pictures. Many mothers keep such books together with the first vest of their child, and with tags from the hospital. They have the character of a child who knows the world around them.

      Option 3

      It is well known that any book is a source of knowledge. However, is it really so? The book depends on the knowledge and character of its author, acquiring when writing, the features that are characteristic of this author. His beliefs, interests, knowledge, partially pass into the work he wrote. But, not every person who writes a book is smart, good, or worthy of emulation. Far from every person manages to write something of high quality so that his book is a source of information that readers really need.

      So what books are worth reading? To understand the answer to this question, we must consider the “fate” of books. At different times, people wrote millions of various texts, ranging from stories about fictional heroes to historical chronicles and scientific treatises. However, only an extremely small number of old books have reached the modern reader? Why did it happen? The answer is simple – high-quality works remain to live for centuries, and a useless set of letters, which the authors call “books”, is not preserved due to the complete uselessness of readers. The ones that have survived are called “classics” and are considered the best works in the world, and this is true, because they were considered the best, many generations before us.

      But how do you know which modern books are worth reading, since they haven’t had generations of review and evaluation by readers? These books, like young pop or movie stars, can break into world fame, or they can disappear into infamy. The answer to the question of how to choose them lies in the reason why people read any texts, namely in their information content. Such fullness is able to be assessed by those who are interested in it, and therefore, the assessment of the quality of the book should be entrusted to the community of specialists dealing with specific issues. And if you need to find books that would be scientific, you should ask the scientists, practical – the workers. The fate of a book is determined by those who read it. It is they who carry it through the ages.

      Option 4

      A book… We are used to considering it an inanimate object. But is it really so? Many of us do not even realize that she can be our best friend, wise teacher, senior mentor. Every house has a great variety of books, and they all carry their own specific history. Any book has its own soul, its own destiny. And it doesn’t matter if it’s thin or thick, whether it’s a novel or a detective story, every writer puts their heart into it.

      One has only to think about how many destinies are depicted in some books. For example, in the epic novel by L.N. Tolstoy’s “War and Peace” has about six hundred characters, and in the work of M.A. — almost seven hundred! Many of them are real historical figures. Therefore, in a book, unlike a person, not just one soul with its experiences and feelings is stored, but a huge number! It is impossible not to empathize with the charming Rostova or the controversial Melekhov. Each reader involuntarily begins a dialogue with the book: What will happen next with your favorite characters? What lies ahead for them? Will they be able to cope with all life’s trials? How many emotions can one book evoke! And not only for readers, but also for the writers themselves. They put their soul and their heart into their favorite child.

      It’s no secret that Nikolai Gogol, in a fit of emotion, burned the second volume of “”: he was so deeply immersed in his work, in the fate of the characters, the idea of ​​the work itself. But the smallest details, pointing to the imperfection of the book, led Gogol to serious depressions. The attitude of the writer to his creation is also depicted in M.A. Bulgakov’s novel “”. In it, the brilliant creator devoted himself to his book so much, empathized with his heroes so much that he could not withstand the onslaught of criticism and burned his manuscripts. But Woland would later tell him: “Manuscripts don’t burn.” This confirms that the book binding is just a shell, like a human body. But the history stored on the pages of a book exists forever, just like the human soul. It cannot be burned, destroyed or forgotten. The book is not just a box of knowledge, but a huge world, unlike the rest.

      After that, it is impossible to take the book for an inanimate object, because it can become our attentive and wise interlocutor. She has her own character, her own soul. And her parent is a writer who wrote out every letter, every line on paper with great love.

      “What are precious books?” − essay

      Option 1

      Precious books are works that amaze the human imagination, broaden our horizons and teach us morality, culture and kindness.

      Likhanov’s text describes how the hero learns the enchanting magic of books (Sentence 3). He liked reading so much that he lived it, imagining himself in the images of his favorite characters (Suggestion 13). Books liberated him, awakened creative energy in him. Even at the level of vocabulary, one can see how rapidly the boy’s intellect is developing: he talks about himself colorfully and interestingly, his speech is much richer than that of his peers.

      My attitude to books can serve as an example from life. Since childhood, my parents have interested me in ancient Greek mythology. I especially liked the legend of Orpheus and Eurydice. There were a lot of new and wonderful words in these works, with which I amazed my classmates and teachers. Such knowledge made me an outstanding interlocutor.

      Thus, the value of a book is its contribution to your development. This means that precious literature is works that teach a person and broaden his horizons.

      An example from the literature: The influence of books on personality is clearly seen in Pushkin’s poetic novel “Eugene Onegin”. Tatyana fell in love with Yevgeny because of his uniqueness for those places, and it was reading that made him such an interesting person. We learn about this when the heroine finds the library of her chosen one and studies him from it.

      Option 2

      Precious books are those that develop a person’s imagination and fantasy, give him new impressions, take him to another world and lay the foundations of morality. I think that a precious book can be called a book that you cannot tear yourself away from, which has been preserved in your memory for decades.

      In the text of V.P. Krapivina tells about a boy who enthusiastically read the book by S. Grigoriev “Malakhov Kurgan”. He was so carried away by her reading that, in response to the demand of the owner of the book to return it, he desperately shouted: “Anyway, I won’t give it until I finish it!” He behaved this way because parting with the story of Sevastopol was beyond his strength. Here it is, the power of the precious book!

      The poetess L. Okhotnitskaya writes about the same:

      I choose books with pleasure –

      On the shelves, in the silence of libraries,

      Now joy suddenly seizes, then excitement,

      After all, each book is like a person.

      One is old, wise, read to holes,

      In the other, everything is unusual, strange, new.

      Books open up the whole world to me!

      Thus, precious books are those that give us moments of pleasure, opening up a new, unknown world.

      Option 3

      Precious books are books that we especially appreciate because they help us find answers to many questions and form our character. I think every child should have such books, because what you perceive in childhood affects your whole life.

      So, in the text of V.P. Krapivina tells about a boy who was fascinated by reading S. Grigoriev’s book “Malakhov Kurgan”. He was so immersed in this occupation that he forgot about everything. The boy read the book over and over again, reading “about Venka and Nakhimov, about the sinking of ships sunk at the entrance to the bay, and about the sailors on the bastions. ” But through the smoke of “military destruction, he continued to see a peaceful and sunny city by the boundless sea.” Here it is, the power of a precious book!

      A.A. Likhanov tells about a boy who, after reading books, imagined himself a hero of various works. Now he was Filipkos, now Gvidon, now Gavrosh. So he lived in the world of book fantasies and was happy.

      I think that every person should have their own precious books, with the help of which we will learn about the world around us.

      Option 4

      Precious books are those that, in my opinion, stand alone on our bookshelf because we value them very much. We appreciate that they are our main assistants and advisers, as they come to the rescue when you are looking for answers to tricky questions.

      Thus, the hero of the text A.A. Likhanova, a great dreamer, reading the precious books of children’s classics, not only goes through the school of spiritual courage, but also develops her imagination. The reverent silence of the library, the smells of books had a magical effect on him: he imagined himself to be the hero of the book, certainly a positive character doing good deeds!

      I also have a precious book! This is a Jules Verne novel. He taught me not to give up in extreme situations, not to lose heart in a moment of danger and to believe! Believe in good!

      Thus, precious books are those that are dear to us, that teach kindness and mercy, nobility and decency.

      Option 5

      Precious books, in my opinion, are those that have become world classics. They became the guiding star of the reader, determined his ideals for the rest of his life, shaped his worldview, and laid the foundations of morality.

      Thus, the narrator from the text by A.A. Likhanova, reading the best works of children’s classics, precious books, not only goes through the basics of spiritual development, but also develops the imagination. The boy introduces himself as Filipko from the story of L. N. Tolstoy, then a prince, then Gavrosh from the novel “” by Victor Hugo. And most importantly – he is always a positive hero who does good deeds!

      I consider A.S. Pushkin “The Captain’s Daughter” It teaches the reader to be honest and faithful, kind and devoted. Words from the work “Take care of honor from a young age!” have become for many people the motto of all life.

      Thus, precious books are those works that define ideals, lay the foundations of a person’s spiritual life.

      Composition “My favorite book” – 4th grade

      The book is the best friend and helper

      The book is a person’s friend, because it will distract from sadness, will captivate with an interesting plot. In the book you will find many smart thoughts, various information that you did not know. Books are different: artistic, scientific, entertaining. Choose to your liking! At any time, she will give you an answer to any question, just open it and do not be too lazy to read it. With a book you are always alone. And if it is interesting, then it is simply impossible to break away from it. If a person reads a lot, then he becomes smarter, more literate. This book helped him. So, she is a true friend and assistant and adviser!

      In my spare time I like to read an interesting book. The most beloved are books about travel, about the sea, about distant lands. When I read, I imagine myself in the place of the characters. I like the description of unfamiliar countries, seas, exquisite young ladies … I dream of traveling, I dream that one day I will meet a handsome prince. I dream that someday I will live on the shores of a warm ocean … What if my dreams come true ?!

      In the meantime, you can learn a lot from books: how to behave in extreme situations, how to swim along a mountain river, where the best fishing is, what customs different nations have. You can learn a lot about the nature of distant countries, about cities. Everything that interests you, and you do not know the full answer to this, you will find everything in the book. Find the right topic, the right problem – and read, memorize, learn!

      There are many good and different books! It’s great to read before bed in the evening! Sometimes it’s so captivating that you can’t put it down. I advise all my friends to read, I give them interesting books that I have read myself.

      A book in my life

      Why do I need to read books? This question is extremely relevant in our time. We live in an era of universal computerization. I can find any book on the Internet. Moreover, I do not have to read it at all, I can just listen to it or watch the film adaptation. To be honest, it’s a lot easier than reading.

      This is the first answer to the question about the need for reading. When reading books, I “work with my head”, that is, I think, reflect, draw some conclusions. This is the first. Secondly, I am convinced that books educate both morally and spiritually. They raise questions that you don’t think about in everyday life. But these questions are of paramount importance in the life of every person: why do I live? what is love? what is the world around me? And so on.

      Now we have a huge selection of books. Classics, detective stories, intellectual texts, fantasy, modern “classics”. Among all this diversity, which is taken for granted, you can lose truly valuable books. What books are valuable to me?

      Those that inspire worthy deeds, that give birth to faith in oneself and in a brighter future, that reveal the essence of human actions, which are simply pleasant to read. Valuable books can be read repeatedly and each time you find something new and valuable in them. They are not intended for children or adults, they are out of time and age.

      One of my favorite books that changed my views in many ways is the philosophical parable Jonathan Livingston Seagull by Richard Bach. The protagonist of the work, seagull Jonathan Livingston, was not like everyone else. He wanted to fly the highest, the farthest, he wanted to be the best in everything. Nobody believed in him, all the seagulls in his flock laughed at him.

      Without listening to anyone, Jonathan flew at night, although no one before him had done so. The hero developed an incredible speed – 214 miles per hour – and dreamed of even more. Exiled from the pack, but not broken, in the finale Jonathan found freedom and found like-minded people.

      As an epigraph to the work, the author wrote the following lines “To the non-fictional Jonathan-Seagull who lives in each of us.” This book instills in us faith in ourselves, that a person can do anything if he strives for a goal and learns not to depend on public opinion.

      Books play an important role in my life because they have a strong influence on it. It can be said that, to some extent, books are my senior comrades, mentors. Through the prism of my favorite books, I look at the world and, it seems to me, I am getting better: kinder, wiser, more tolerant.

      Essay on the topic “My favorite book” – 6, 7 grade (with a plan)

      Option 1

      Plan

      1. What is my favorite book.
      2. What is the book about.
      3. What she teaches.

      My favorite book is Tomek’s Adventures in Kangaroo Country. It was written by Alfred Shklyarsky. There are several other books about the same hero, and I like them all very much. Tomek is a teenager who travels with his father across different continents. They catch different wild animals. And interesting adventures happen to them.

      In Tomek’s Adventures in Kangaroo Country, Tomek is offered to leave Poland, where he lives with his aunt’s family, for Australia. There he must meet his own father, whom he had not seen for many years. Tomek immediately agrees. And this is the beginning of his exciting adventures. He saves a girl who got lost, then they become friends.

      Thanks to this series, I learned a lot about the geography of different countries and became interested in this subject. I think it’s good when your favorite book not only entertains, but also teaches something.

      Option 2

      Plan

      1. My favorite book.
      2. Why I like this book.
      3. Who would be interested in reading this book.

      Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows is my favorite book. The entire Harry Potter series is the best I’ve ever read. I also like classical literature, but fantasy won and won me over.

      First I saw the movie and then they persuaded me to read the book. And I didn’t regret it. The book describes much more events, it is more detailed than the films. And the book explains the history of each character. But of the whole series, my favorite is the last part. It is in it that there is a key to everything that happened in the previous parts. It completes the story wonderfully and logically. I admire how Harry behaved in such difficult conditions. And the guys from Hogwarts showed themselves in the last battle from the best side. It’s a pity that good heroes died. But the same thing happens in life.

      This book has everything: friendship and love, betrayal. The support and help of real friends, and this is true at all times.

      A Judicial Learning Center Can Engage and Educate Courthouse Visitors

      “FOOD FIGHT!!” shouts Bluto Blutarsky, seconds before cafeteria mayhem ensues in the iconic 1970s comedy “Animal House.” More images of chaos from other corners of pop culture quickly follow on-screen, humorously illustrating what our lives might look like without the Rule of Law. For a moment, I forgot I was in a courthouse rather than a movie theater.

      I recently had the opportunity to tour the Ralph L. Carr Judicial Center in Denver with a group of judges, court executives, and architects. Located within this large, multi-tenant judicial center is the Colorado Judicial Learning Center, which is not only a centerpiece of the building but a valuable educational resource for the community.

       The Learning Center includes a brilliant video that explores the stark differences between the Rule of Man and the Rule of Law from the perspective of an inquisitive teenager. This video was so impressive in the way it interspersed a wide range of movie clips, graphics, and animation to convey important Constitutional concepts in an understandable and engaging way. It is certainly one of the Center’s more prominent exhibits. I also wandered through other exhibits and was able to explore the many opportunities for visitors to learn about the judicial process, including:

      •  Our Constitution – a trivia game testing participants’ knowledge of the U.S. Constitution
      • Path of Resolution – an interactive display demonstrating how different types of cases travel through the various levels of the court system, and the specific function of each court along the way
      • Our Colorado Map – a touch-screen map showing visitors how the state is divided into counties, districts, water divisions, and tribal lands
      • You Be the Judge – an interactive exhibit in which the visitor assumes the role of an appellate judge, learning the intricacies of judicial responsibility and discretion, reviewing facts and details, and eventually weighing the information to reach a decision

      After trying many of the exhibits (the trivia questions are not easy!), I could picture groups of schoolchildren visiting the Colorado Judicial Learning Center and walking away both entertained and educated. It reminded me of a similar space I toured a few years ago in the Thomas F. Eagleton U.S. Courthouse in St. Louis, MO, which is specifically designed to educate young students about the role of the judiciary . Similar learning centers can also be found in the Thurgood Marshall U.S. Courthouse in New York City, the Supreme Court of Virginia in Richmond, VA, and the Supreme Court of Wyoming in Cheyenne, WY. The Judicial Learning Center of Wyoming was directly inspired by the Colorado Judicial Learning Center after Wyoming’s Chief Justice attended the 2013 dedication of the Carr Judicial Center in Denver and “was struck by the number of children and adults of all ages fully engaged in the Rule of Law as it has developed in Colorado.”

       As a courthouse planner, I took away many concepts from the Colorado Judicial Learning Center that could be incorporated into our future planning efforts. Here are a few observations you and your planning teams might also find helpful:

      •  Judicial Learning Centers are best located in a Supreme or appellate courthouse – The Carr Judicial Center houses both the Colorado Supreme Court and the Court of Appeals. The courthouses mentioned above and others that feature learning centers also typically house Supreme or appellate courts. These types of courthouses do not normally host proceedings with in-custody criminal defendants and therefore do not have a cellblock, holding cells, or prisoner circulation. Although all courthouse visitors are carefully screened, the overall feel of the building once past security is one of civic importance and quiet solemnity. This pairs well with a space intended to emphasize the role of the judiciary and the importance of the Rule of Law. A learning center might not work as well in a high-volume court of general jurisdiction or a municipal court with busy traffic and misdemeanor dockets.
      •  A 1st floor location is ideal – The Colorado Judicial Center is located adjacent to the 1st floor lobby. The easier it is for visitors to access the space – especially in large groups – the better. Once visitors pass through security, they should be able to make their way directly to the learning center. Proper signage and wayfinding helps this process. In addition, the building lobby should be sized to allow groups to assemble after passing through security, to perhaps divide into smaller groups, complete head counts, use restrooms, etc. Some noise and disruptions are likely with school groups, so the location of the learning center in relation to courtrooms should be considered from that perspective.
      •  Exhibits should cover a range of age groups and learning styles – While all visitors might not be as amused as I was by Mr. Blutarsky, the Colorado Judicial Learning Center seems to have something for everyone. From interactive games geared towards elementary schoolers to more in-depth exhibits better suited for Constitutional law students, the variety of exhibits makes the center an inviting and informative experience for any visitor. Developing exhibits that cover a wide range of interests ensures that the learning center effectively serves the community.

      With technology rapidly advancing, it’s exciting to imagine what judicial learning centers might have in store for future visitors. Maybe we’ll see a virtual reality courtroom where aspiring lawyers could argue in front of Supreme Court Justices. Or perhaps the timeless importance of the Rule of Law will be illustrated through an entirely new series of cultural memes. Just watch out for flying tomatoes!

      v.
      KINDER-CARE LEARNING CENTERS, INC., a corporation.

      81-118.

      Supreme Court of Alabama.

      August 20, 1982.

      *860 Charles A. Graddick, Atty. Gen., and Herbert I. Burson, Jr., Chief Counsel, Dept. of Revenue, and Asst. Atty. Gen., and Ronald J. Bowden, Asst. Counsel, Dept. of Revenue and Asst. Atty. Gen., for appellants.

      Charles B. Paterson and Clyde C. Owen, Jr., of Ball, Ball, Duke & Matthews, Montgomery, for appellee.

      SHORES, Justice.

      Kinder-Care Learning Centers, Inc. (Kinder-Care) filed an action against the State and certain state and local officials, asking the court to declare that the assessments for ad valorem taxes on the property of Kinder-Care during the tax years 1977 and 1978 were illegal and void in that the property of Kinder-Care is exempt from ad valorem taxation as property devoted exclusively to educational purposes. After a trial, the trial court entered its order declaring the property of Kinder-Care exempt from ad valorem taxes, and the State appealed. We reverse and remand.

      Section 91, Ala. Const. 1901, provides a limited exemption from taxation for certain property used exclusively for religious worship, for schools, or for purposes purely charitable. Section 40-9-1, Ala. Code 1975, extends this exemption to “all property, real and personal, used exclusively for religious worship, for schools or for purposes purely charitable.” Amendment 373 to the Constitution, which was ratified November 20, 1978, and which amends § 217 of the Constitution, provides an exemption from ad valorem taxation in Section (k) for “property devoted exclusively to religious, educational or charitable purposes.” Similarly, § 40-8-1(d) provides an exemption for “real and personal property devoted exclusively to religious, educational or charitable purposes.” Kinder-Care operates approximately 725 day care centers throughout the nation. Its home office is in Montgomery, and it is regulated in Alabama by the Department of Pensions and Security. It accepts children between the ages of six weeks and twelve years, and the centers are open from 7:00 a. m. to 6:00 p.m. The programs offered are standardized throughout the system. Each center has a director and staff members who receive some training from the educational department, which produces a weekly program for each age group. A pre-school child (i.e., one between the ages of two years and five and one-half years) becomes involved with programs within the pre-school level at the age of four. These four year olds are involved in a pre-reading readiness program called “Happily Ever After.” The five-year-old child is involved in a reading readiness program entitled “Beginning to Read, Write and Listen,” and also in a mathematics program. The five year olds are given a test entitled “The Metropolitan Readiness Test,” which is designed to determine whether the child is ready to proceed to the first grade. Kinder-Care keeps quarterly progress reports or developmental records which indicate each child’s progress. Most of the children at Kinder-Care are enrolled on a yearly basis; however, Kinder-Care does accept “drop-ins” (i. e., children who are there for only a short period of time). Kinder-Care is *861 required by the Department of Pensions and Security to have minimum items of equipment.

      The children from six to twelve years of age who are at Kinder-Care only after school, on arriving at Kinder-Care after school, participate in the afternoon snack, after which they go outside for thirty to forty-five minutes. After coming back inside, the children play board games such as jigsaw puzzles and Monopoly.

      Kinder-Care is not licensed by the Board of Education and is not accredited by the Department of Education. The majority of children at Kinder-Care are between the ages of two and five. It is the business of Kinder-Care to earn a profit.

      The trial court correctly noted that it is the use to which the property is put which determines whether it is exempt from ad valorem taxes. It also correctly observed that the term “education” is a general term and is not a limited one, as we recently held in Clark v. Jefferson County Board of Education, (Ala. 1982).

      The issue, however, is one of constitutional and statutory construction. Did the legislature intend to grant an exemption from the payment of ad valorem taxes for the use made by Kinder-Care of its property? Or, stated differently, is Kinder-Care using its property exclusively for “educational purposes” as that term is used in the statutes creating the exemption, or are Kinder-Care day care centers “schools” within the meaning of those statutes? Those are the criteria established by this Court to entitle one to the exemption. Anniston City Land Company v. State, 160 Ala. 253, 48 So. 659 (1909). That case held that it was the use to which the property was put and not its ownership which determined the exemption issue. There the Court held that property used exclusively for a school was exempt. It also observed:

      “The `universal rule of construction is that exemptions from taxation, whether statutory or constitutional, are to be strictly construed, against the exemption and in favor of the right to tax, and that no person or property is to be exempted unless the intention to exempt such person or property clearly appears in some statute or constitutional provision. The relinquishment or curtailment of the power of taxation is never presumed.’ Gray, Lim. of Taxing Power, p. 655, § 1321, and cases cited in note 53 to the text, among them being that of Stein v. Mobile, 17 Ala. 234, 239.”

      160 Ala. at 256, 48 So. 659.

      Kinder-Care aptly points out that a subsequent appeal by the same taxpayer disallowed the exemption only because a part of the building was used as a boarding house and, thus, the property was not used exclusively for a school or for educational purposes. Anniston City Land Company v. State, 185 Ala. 482, 64 So. 110 (1913). It argues that all of Kinder-Care’s property is used for educational purposes and, thus, it is entitled to the exemption.

      We agree that the term “education” is a broad one and that much of what Kinder-Care provides is educational. We cannot agree, however, that the term was used in that broad sense in the statutes and constitutional provisions extending the exemptions from ad valorem taxes. The teachers in the Kinder-Care Learning Centers are not certified teachers as defined by Alabama law. The centers are not subject to regulation or certification by the Department of Education. They are not “private schools” as defined in § 16-28-1, Ala. Code 1975, and attendance at such centers would not satisfy the compulsory school attendance laws. Section 16-28-2, Ala. Code 1975.

      Because we must strictly construe tax exemption statutes, we conclude that, although much of what Kinder-Care offers is unquestionably educational, neither is its property used exclusively for “educational purposes,” nor are its centers “schools,” within the meaning of the pertinent statutes. Therefore, the decision of the trial court to the contrary must be reversed.

      We acknowledge that in Clark v. Jefferson County Board of Education, supra, we held that the county board was authorized *862 to operate day care centers under a broad grant of authority from the legislature to develop “community education.” There, as here, we were called upon to construe a statute consistent with the legislative policy in enacting it. There, as contrasted with this case, we were compelled to liberally construe the language of the legislation. Here, we are bound to narrowly construe the terms “educational purposes” and “schools.”

      The judgment of the trial court is reversed and the case remanded.

      REVERSED AND REMANDED.

      (b) doing so would cause us legal liability or compromise our ability to provide the Services to our other users, or

      (c) we’re prohibited from doing so by law.

      Discontinuation of Services

      We may decide to discontinue the Services in response to unforeseen circumstances beyond CountingWorks control or to comply with a legal requirement. If we do so, we’ll give you reasonable prior notice so that you can export Your Stuff from our systems.

      Services “AS IS”

      We strive to provide great Services, but there are certain things that we can’t guarantee. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, CountingWorks AND ITS AFFILIATES, SUPPLIERS AND DISTRIBUTORS MAKE NO WARRANTIES, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, ABOUT THE SERVICES. THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS.” WE ALSO DISCLAIM ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. Some places don’t allow the disclaimers in this paragraph, so they may not apply to you.

      Limitation of Liability

      WE DON’T EXCLUDE OR LIMIT OUR LIABILITY TO YOU WHERE IT WOULD BE ILLEGAL TO DO SO—THIS INCLUDES ANY LIABILITY FOR CountingWorks OR ITS AFFILIATES’ FRAUD OR FRAUDULENT MISREPRESENTATION IN PROVIDING THE SERVICES. IN COUNTRIES WHERE THE FOLLOWING TYPES OF EXCLUSIONS AREN’T ALLOWED, WE’RE RESPONSIBLE TO YOU ONLY FOR LOSSES AND DAMAGES THAT ARE A REASONABLY FORESEEABLE RESULT OF OUR FAILURE TO USE REASONABLE CARE AND SKILL OR OUR BREACH OF OUR CONTRACT WITH YOU. THIS PARAGRAPH DOESN’T AFFECT CONSUMER RIGHTS THAT CAN’T BE WAIVED OR LIMITED BY ANY CONTRACT OR AGREEMENT.

      IN COUNTRIES WHERE EXCLUSIONS OR LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY ARE ALLOWED, CountingWorks, ITS AFFILIATES, SUPPLIERS OR DISTRIBUTORS WON’T BE LIABLE FOR:

      i. ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR

      ii. ANY LOSS OF USE, DATA, BUSINESS, OR PROFITS, REGARDLESS OF LEGAL THEORY.


      THESE EXCLUSIONS OR LIMITATIONS WILL APPLY REGARDLESS OF WHETHER OR NOT CountingWorks OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES HAS BEEN WARNED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

      IF YOU USE THE SERVICES FOR ANY COMMERCIAL, BUSINESS, OR RE-SALE PURPOSE, CountingWorks, ITS AFFILIATES, SUPPLIERS OR DISTRIBUTORS WILL HAVE NO LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFIT, LOSS OF BUSINESS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, OR LOSS OF BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY.

      Resolving Disputes

      Let’s Try To Sort Things Out First. We want to address your concerns without needing a formal legal case. Before filing a claim against CountingWorks or our affiliates, you agree to try to resolve the dispute informally by contacting [email protected]. We’ll try to resolve the dispute informally by contacting you via email.

      Judicial forum for disputes. You and CountingWorks agree that any judicial proceeding to resolve claims relating to these Terms or the Services will be brought in the federal or state courts of Orange County, California, subject to the mandatory arbitration provisions below. Both you and CountingWorks consent to venue and personal jurisdiction in such courts. If you reside in a country (for example, European Union member states) with laws that give consumers the right to bring disputes in their local courts, this paragraph doesn’t affect those requirements.

      IF YOU’RE A U.S. RESIDENT, YOU ALSO AGREE TO THE FOLLOWING MANDATORY ARBITRATION PROVISIONS:

      We Both Agree To Arbitrate. You and CountingWorks agree to resolve any claims relating to these Terms or the Services through final and binding arbitration by a single arbitrator. This includes disputes arising out of or relating to interpretation or application of this “Mandatory Arbitration Provisions” section, including its enforceability, revocability, or validity.

      Arbitration Procedures. The American Arbitration Association (AAA) will administer the arbitration under its Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes. The arbitration will be held in the United States county where you live or work, Orange County (CA), or any other location we agree to.

      NO CLASS ACTIONS. You may only resolve disputes with us on an individual basis, and may not bring a claim as a plaintiff or a class member in a class, consolidated, or representative action. Class arbitrations, class actions, private attorney general actions, and consolidation with other arbitrations aren’t allowed. If this specific paragraph is held unenforceable, then the entirety of this “Mandatory Arbitration Provisions” section will be deemed void.

      Controlling Law

      These Terms will be governed by California law except for its conflicts of laws principles. However, some countries (including those in the European Union) have laws that require agreements to be governed by the local laws of the consumer’s country. This paragraph doesn’t override those laws.

      Entire Agreement

      These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and CountingWorks with respect to the subject matter of these Terms, and supersede and replace any other prior or contemporaneous agreements, or terms and conditions applicable to the subject matter of these Terms. These Terms create no third party beneficiary rights.

      Waiver, Severability & Assignment

      CountingWorks failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of its right to do so later. If a provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions of the Terms will remain in full effect and an enforceable term will be substituted reflecting our intent as closely as possible. You may not assign any of your rights under these Terms, and any such attempt will be void. CountingWorks may assign its rights to any of its affiliates or subsidiaries, or to any successor in interest of any business associated with the Services.

      Modifications

      We may revise these Terms from time to time to better reflect:

      (a) changes to the law,

      (b) new regulatory requirements, or

      (c) improvements or enhancements made to our Services.


      If an update affects your use of the Services or your legal rights as a user of our Services, we’ll notify you prior to the update’s effective date by sending an email to the email address associated with your account or via an in-product notification. These updated terms will be effective no less than 30 days from when we notify you.

      If you don’t agree to the updates we make, please cancel your account before they become effective. By continuing to use or access the Services after the updates come into effect, you agree to be bound by the revised Terms.

      About FOL

      “It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge” 

      –  Albert Einstein

      Learning Styles Matter

      Left Brain learners rule the classroom. School schedules pose no problems because they are very time conscious. Assignments and test dates are remembered and even neatly entered into assignments books. Verbal and analytical, left brainers readily learn sequential skills : phonics, grammar rules, multiplication tables make total sense. Left brainers are verbal and enjoy reading and writing, building strong vocabularies in the process. Test questions make sense to them. They like to talk, debate, and argue. They follow multiple directions well and take good notes. The classroom environment is their natural home. Left brainers become our lawyers, neurologists, accountants, journalists , teachers, politicians, bookkeepers and bankers.

      Right Brain learners view the traditional classroom as a foreign land. Visual and spontaneous, they have little sense of time. Assignments are forgotten and test dates not remembered. Nonverbal learners, right brainers struggle mightily with routine classroom tasks: phonics and grammar make no sense, memorization of rote facts is difficult, spelling is hopeless, punctuation is ignored, and the meaning of questions remains an ongoing puzzle. Note taking is problematic. Right brainers only learn what they understand. Out-of-the box thinkers, they are not verbal but creative and intuitive, often giving the right answer without being able to explain how they got it. Right brainers are our artists, musicians, designers, architects, athletes, builders, surgeons and software designers.

      Our Business was built by the Best!

      How to choose a training center and avoid scammers?

      New orders of the Ministry of Health, periodic accreditation and the system of continuing medical education establish requirements for regular training of doctors, nurses and pharmacists. The need to take courses has led to many offers of specialist training services.

      However, not all educational organizations conscientiously fulfill their obligations to clients. Therefore, it is important to choose the right educational institution in order to avoid losing money and problems with accreditation.

      What documents should a CPE center have?

      The key rule when choosing an educational institution is to check whether the organization has licenses and other permits that allow training specialists. In the absence of licenses, the CPE center does not have the right to conduct courses and issue educational documents.

      You can check the availability of a license on the official website of Rosobrnadzor . When choosing an educational institution, be sure to request information on the license and check the information on the Rosobrnadzor website.

      The following information must be provided in the licenses:

      1. Basic information – the date and number of registration of the document, the name of the organization, PSRN, TIN, the actual address of the institution and the validity period of the license.
      2. Appendix – includes the series and number of the document, as well as information about the educational institution and the type of permission for educational activities. In the appendices, the type of activity of the centers of further vocational education is registered as “Additional professional education”.
      3. Stamp and signature. All sheets of the license are stamped by the Department of Education and the person who approved the issuance of the document.

      Final documents

      Additional professional education centers issue documents of the established form:

      Educational documents are printed on special forms signed by the rector and stamped by the center of further education.

      Each educational institution is required to enter information about issued educational documents into the FIS FRDO (Federal Register of Documents on Education) – based on Government Decree No. 825. The registry is open, so everyone can check the information about the document – it is enough to know the details of the diploma or certificate.

      Important! Entering information into FIS FRDO affects admission to accreditation. The FAC necessarily checks the information on issued certificates. If there is no information in the register, the application for accreditation will be rejected.

      The law obliges educational organizations to register issued documents in the register within 60 days from the date of their issuance to specialists. Only licensed educational institutions can enter information into FIS FRDO.

      If the representatives of the CPE center state that the entry of information into the register is not significant, or they do not comply with the deadlines for registering information, this is a reason to doubt the competence of the organization. No document can be issued retroactively – this is illegal.

      Important! Responsibility for the use of fake documents lies not only with the educational organization, but also with the specialist to whom they were issued – according to article 327 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation .

      Curricula

      The educational institution is required to provide information about the program in which the client plans to receive training. Important conditions are:

      1. Compliance with the terms of training. The requirements for the duration of the programs are specified in the 273-FZ and the order of the Ministry of Education and Science No. 499. Professional retraining should last at least 250 hours, advanced training courses – from 16 to 249 hours.
      2. Availability of compulsory and profile disciplines in the curriculum. Arbitrary topics cannot be added to the program or materials required to be studied according to the Federal State Educational Standard cannot be excluded.

      Important! If a specialist wants to undergo training with ZET accrual, the program must be accredited on the NMO portal. If this requirement is not met, points for completing the course will not be credited to the specialist.

      In order to complete a 5-year cycle of study in the CME system, we recommend that you create an educational plan strictly in your personal account on the official portal of continuing education. This is necessary even if you have already chosen a training center – checking the programs will avoid wasting money and time.

      What else to look for?

      Documents for enrollment

      To take courses in specific areas of activity, specialists must have the appropriate qualifications. Requirements for the education and work experience of specialists are prescribed in the orders of the Ministry of Health No. 707n (VMP) and No. 83n (SMP). The educational organization must take into account the qualification requirements when providing educational services.

      When enrolling, you must submit copies of the following documents:

      Educational process

      When choosing an FVE center and distance courses, be sure to find out:

      • where and how training is organized;

      • is there any technical support;

      • what is the class schedule.

      Educational institutions must organize the learning process in strict accordance with Article 16 of the Federal Law No. 273. In particular, distance courses can only be conducted using the electronic information and educational environment. In simple words, all educational materials of the CVE centers should be placed on the educational portal, where the learning process is organized and the knowledge of students is monitored.

      If during the inspection it turns out that the educational institution does not actually conduct educational activities, its license will be revoked, and all issued documents on education will be invalidated.

      Tuition fees

      The cost of courses affects the results of training specialists. The low cost of the services of the CPE center should be suspicious, because prices below the market average indicate the absence of a full range of educational services:

      • a complete set of training materials;

      • support of a personal manager;

      • advisory and methodological support;

      • issuance of a legitimate document for employment and so on.

      By contacting the CVE center, you do not just purchase a document. If the cost of services is below the market average, it is likely that you have turned to scammers.

      To be sure of the quality of training and the legitimacy of the final documents, please contact our training center. “Institute of Medical Education” holds for health professionals:

      We conduct a number of courses with the accrual of CME points, and we register all documents in the FIS FRDO within the time limits established by law. We will help doctors, paramedics and pharmacists to prepare and initial or periodic accreditation.
