PARENT HANDBOOK | north-beach-kids

 

North Beach Kids is about growth and development in a nurturing, safe environment. We welcome all children regardless of race, religion,creed or national origin. We like to treat each child as an individual and aid them in their daily decision making. We are here to assist in their growth and  provide each child every possibility to explore and experience new things. Emphasis is on enjoying the environment, indoors and outdoors, by exploring a variety of activities within the limits established by the teaching staff. Planned experiences enable the children to grow emotionally, socially, intellectually and physically using their natural abilities, interests and temperaments to develop positive feelings about themselves and their world.

 

Days and Hours of Operation

The schools are open year round, Monday through Friday 8:00am – 5:00pm

Full-time care: 8:00am – 5:00pm, Part-time care: 8:00am – 1:00pm

A school calendar is issued on August 1st, listing all holidays and other days that the school will be closed.

 

Ages of Children Accepted for Care

6 months until Kindergarten. The earliest age of a child accepted will be 6 months as of September 1st.

 

Field Trip Provisions

All field trips will be within 2 miles of North Beach Kids. We will leave the school daily, walking or taking Muni to go to various local, neighborhood parks, gardens, events and attractions. We will get dirty! We will always be safe, but know that we will get dirty. A field trip waiver is included in your welcome package.

 

Transportation Arrangements

Most of our transportation needs will be met by MUNI. In the occasional event of a field trip (please see above), all children will be placed in safety-approved car seats as required by California State law. Parents may be requested to provide a car seat for the day.

 

Food Service Provisions

Lunches will be provided by the children’s parents every day. North Beach Kids has a cold food area for preparation of morning and afternoon snacks, as well as lunch if child has forgotten his/her lunch. The kitchen area is equipped with a refrigerator and freezer for food storage, cold and hot water sink, and a microwave. The facility does not have a stove. Parents are asked to bring in a nutritious lunch/dinner every day in a lunchbox clearly labeled with your child’s name. North Beach Kids will provide morning and afternoon snacks. These will include a healthy variety of fruit, focaccia bread, muffins, goldfish, cereal, pretzels, crackers, cheese, as well as gluten free options.  Water will be provided with all snacks. Please inform the Director of any food allergies.

 

Medication Policy

North Beach Kids’ staff will dispense medication only with written consent by the parent. All medications must be clearly labeled with the child’s name.  Parents are responsible for keeping a child home when there is  any doubt about a child’s health. A child that does not feel well enough to participate comfortably in the day’s activities needs to remain at home. Please keep children at home if they have: a contagious infection, a fever, vomiting, diarrhea, heavy continuous nasal discharge or a constant cough. A child must be free from all symptoms for 24 hours before returning to the program.

 

Services to be Provided if a Child Has a Medical or Dental Emergency

If an emergency arises, a qualified staff administers first aid care, calls the parents, and if necessary emergency medical personnel. Staff will accompany the child to the nearest hospital where emergency treatment is administered. The staff will remain with the child until the parent arrives. If the parents/guardians are unable to be contacted, we will then try to contact the child’s Emergency Contacts provided.  The child’s current Consent for Medical/Dental Treatment form (LIC 627) will be on file in the case of emergencies.  All records will be kept available on-site in a dedicated administrative area. In the event neither parent can be reached, the child’s physician will be contacted. An accident report log is kept at the front desk with detailed information on any injury to a child. An incident report is kept in the log, in the child’s file, and a copy given to the parent within 24 hours of any injury.

 

Sign-in / Sign-out Procedures

Parents are required by California law to sign their children in and out each day. The person will use a full legal signature when signing in/out and will record the time of day. If a person from the authorization list picks up the child, photo identification may be required. If an alternate not on the authorization list needs to pick up the child, written notice will be given to the center at drop off. All sign-in / sign-out records will be kept available on-site in a dedicated administrative area.

 

Admission Policies

North Beach Kids accepts applications for enrollment throughout the year; however, our official school year begins August 1st.  Students may enroll at any time through the year, provided space is available.  Enrollment will be granted without discrimination in regard to sex, race, color, religion, or beliefs.

Parents/guardians will be notified by phone when space becomes available. The below paperwork must be completed and submitted for enrollment. Medical reports and emergency contact information must be current at all times. (*additional forms are required for infants). 

 

  • Completed registration form

– 3 Polio     – 4 DTaP        – 3 Hep B        – 1 MMR, on or after the first birthday        – 1 Hib, on or after the first birthday        – 1 Varicella (chickenpox)

 

All copies of records will be kept available on-site in a dedicated administrative area.

 

Discipline Policies

Treating children as individuals and discussing their choices is what we feel works best at North Beach Kids. Helping the children learn compassion and understanding for their fellow classmates is the goal of NBK. Children will be encouraged to learn problem-solving skills and become self- correcting. They will be given the opportunity to choose alternatives that will enable them to participate in a socially acceptable manner without reinforcing their negative behavior. Staff will use positive enforcement while supervising children, encouraging them to cooperate and continue using appropriate behaviors. Children will be redirected to an alternate activity if their behavior continues to be inappropriate. 

 

If the situation becomes dangerous for anyone involved, then the child will be removed from the situation.  The child will be placed quietly to reflect on the situation before discussing the situation again, all while being supervised by a staff member.  If the situation continues to be of concern or escalates, the child’s parents/guardians will be contacted.

 

Physical / corporal punishment is never an option! Communication is key to a strong working relationship between the teachers and parents/guardians.  We encourage parents to visit North Beach Kids any time. We are more than happy to share any information about your child, how their day went, what they ate, etc.  Teacher conferences can be requested at any time during the year by the parent or teacher.  

 

Grounds for Dismissal:

The school reserves the right to dismiss a child from attendance for any reason whatsoever, including, but not limited to, health, lack of adjustment to the preschool setting, behavior that disrupts the cooperative climate of the classroom or delinquency of the tuition account.

Yes, I would book again.

If you are considering this venue just do your future self a favor and book it. It’s amazing. This review has been cut down to fit the character limit, I could rave on and on about how great it is. We hosted a 9am “toddler rager” with about 65-80 guests.
Peter was responsive from the very beginning of the process, even prior to booking. A joy to work with on every step of the way!
Arrival/setup was seamless and convenient. Guests used the nearby paid parking and found the front door easily from the detailed directions provided. The space was cleaned right before our event, it was spotless.
The space itself is a dream! It’s a little kids’ paradise with plenty of comfortable seating for adults. It allowed the little guests to run around with minimal supervision, which meant there was time for actual adult conversation (a rarity at most birthday parties!). Everything was so perfectly tailored to toddlers that everyone found a way to have fun, the shyer kids had a corner for books while the runners and climbers entertained themselves outside.
Indoor cleanup was a little daunting, but because of the meticulous labelling it was easy to get everything back where it belonged. I’d suggest budgeting about half an hour with 2 adults to reset the toys.
Some fun bonus features:
•the potties were complimented many times by grownups and kids alike
• the whole place photographs beautifully
• loved being able to play music from a phone
10/10 would book again.

Financial Analyst

Yes, I would book again.

We loved the space for our baby shower. The host was accommodating yet hands off. The space was perfect – a little outcove for decorations, plenty of space for the kids. The playground is definitely the highlight and we received wonderful feedback from our guests. It was clean, super private amidst the hustle and bustle of Chinatown, yet conveniently located next to a parking garage and Stockton st shops. Nice amenities on-site (water fountains, restrooms, Wi-Fi etc) were all in perfect functioning order! I would book this space again!

Associate Director

Yes, I would book again.

We had a wonderful experience this past Saturday at the playground. My son and his friends had so much fun – the play ground is up to date, safe, and has various activities for the kids to keep the kids busy and engaged. Because the space is contained, the adults enjoyed being able to relax and not worry about any toddlers running off.
The bathroom facilities were perfect for families with small children and everything was clean and very up-to-date. There’s a great speaker system as well, so we had the jams going.
Peter, the host, is very responsive and helpful. He was great at communicating and I’d highly recommend booking with him.

August 6, 2022


Yes, I would book again.

What can I say? This place was such a hit among our guests! We hosted a birthday party for 40 people and the kids didn’t want to leave. Had to extend the booking time to make sure everyone got their share of fun. Peter was such a great host and very accommodating. The venue was clean, well equipped and convenient. Would love to book again in the future.

May 7, 2022


Yes, I would book again.

He was super responsive and easy to communicate with. Everything at the event space was great and our party loved the space. Highly recommend reserving this space if you can.

Mom to Harper and Rowan

Yes, I would book again.

This is a perfect space for hosting a child’s birthday party. The playground and amenities are wonderful. Being able to park in the alley was incredibly helpful.

April 24, 2022


Yes, I would book again.

The space was the best location to celebrate our son’s 2nd birthday. We really enjoyed our time. Also, so many of our guests commented they were able to relax and not worry about their kids, as the place was very safe, enclosed, and full of activities. The small room next to the playground was perfect for setting up food and drinks. The bathrooms and kitchen were very clean and spacious.
The service from Peter was excellent – he was very responsive, answered all my questions/ provided suggestions, and shared photos/ videos of the space. When we arrived, he ensured we had everything we needed to enjoy the space.

March 20, 2022


Yes, I would book again.

This spot is an absolute oasis in a bustling part of the city! Everyone had so much fun and were in awe of the space because it’s safe, private, colorful and so clean with a spongy ground, so no sand or grass to worry about with babies/toddlers. Tables and chairs were ready to be used, there are lots of great toys and play structures for little ones, and you can easily get deliveries for food/decor, and have adult drinks which was a huge plus. Even the bathrooms have a wow factor that people couldn’t stop talking about! Setup and cleanup were super easy because Peter is amazing to work with. He is so friendly, organized and helpful and got our phone hooked up to the music system right after we arrived which we hadn’t thought about. Had the feel of throwing a chill party in your backyard but with way better amenities. Couldn’t have dreamed of a better 1st birthday for my child. Highly recommend!

What are travelers I visited Children’s North Beach with my parents.”

July 2019

When my dad was being treated at hospital No. 40 in Sestroretsk, I he, as well as my dear mother, the three of us visited this beach, located near the Time Out restaurant on the outskirts of Sestroretsk. First, we sat on a bench by the water, and then went to a nearby sports ground, having examined it as well. All this was quite good.

“Cute little beach”

aug. 2018

Came here on the last hot day of this summer August 10, 2018
The beach is sandy, the water in the spill is clean, but slightly peaty. Along the coast is quite shallow, safe for kids.
The beach has cabanas, a volleyball net, a playground with benches and trash cans. There are even lifeguards with a boat.
But the toilet could not be found.
There is no trade on the beach. Across the road is a supermarket “Pyaterochka” and a restaurant “Eurasia”. You can get there via a pedestrian crossing. Near the beach there is a parking lot and another one opposite the shops.

Primorskoye shosse near the Time-out restaurant there is the Northern Beach, which is very popular among family residents of St. Petersburg.

It looks more like a swimming pool, which is usually built in resort areas next to the sea – a small beach on Razliv Lake, where there are almost no waves, it is always quiet and calm here. What you need for a family holiday: a restaurant nearby, adult and children’s sandy beaches and a rental shop where you can rent various sports equipment at a reasonable price. The area itself is perfectly located: nearby is a spa hotel, parking and much more, a show program is organized on the beach on weekends.

The little paddling pool is one of the reasons why many people choose North Beach for families. It is limited by buoys, the approach to the water is gentle and soft, which makes it absolutely safe for children. In addition, there is a special playground for kids.

The best beaches of North Goa: photo and description

Everyone knows that Goa is not an island? This is a state of India, one of the smallest. However, this “small” state has given the world 100 km of uninterrupted beaches, which are simply unrealistic to drive around in a few weeks. The whole Goa is divided into 2 parts: South Goa and North Goa. The airport is right in the middle.

They say that the beaches of South Goa are cleaner and more suitable for the definition of “bounty”, which our compatriots are so eager for. But there are also disadvantages in South Goa: there is an order of magnitude less housing than in North Goa, mostly these will be expensive hotels aimed at European and Russian middle-aged tourists and families with children. Also in South Goa, things are bad with shops, and it will be very difficult to find the same famous Indian cosmetics or Indian Ayurveda there.

During our three-week stay in Goa, we never made it to the southern regions. Therefore, in this article we will talk about the beaches of North Goa. Maharashtra state. But among the guests and residents of North Goa, it is so popular that we decided to include it in this list. Moreover, it is only 16 km away from Arambol. By the way, on the map this beach is called Shiroda Beach.

This beach is without a doubt the best beach on this list. There are no such crowds of tourists here, and the beach itself compares favorably with the rest with crisp sand and azure sea. There are also no palm trees on this beach, and pine trees grow instead. Very unusual!

Now hotels are already beginning to appear here, many signs in Russian: everything says that this beach will soon cease to be such a paradise.

But for now, here is paradise. And we found the most beautiful shells that we brought from Goa on this beach. Not far from the beach there is a famous attraction – Redi Fort (we talked about it in the article about the sights of Goa). Read also more about Paradise Beach.

Kerim Beach

Kerim Beach is the northernmost beach in Goa, located at the mouth of the Terakol River, which must be crossed to enter the neighboring state of Maharashtra. It looks like Paradise Beach: here, instead of palm trees, coniferous trees grow.

This beach is not very famous among foreign tourists, usually Indians themselves rest here. But since they don’t usually swim in the sea or sunbathe, the whole coast looks rather deserted. On the beach there are sun loungers with awnings.

Kalach Beach

The beach is located right behind the rocks of Arambol on the north side. To get there, you need to go through a busy market on a cliff.

Behind these rocks of Arambola begins Kalacha Beach

The beach is quite beautiful, although quite small. It is limited by rocks on both sides, and nudists like to sunbathe on the rocks on the north side.

They say that earlier the entire Kalach beach belonged to nudists, but over time they were forced out onto the rocks. And on the beach they built a cafe and put sunbeds, which are rented to vacationers for 30 rupees .

And the fact that it is from him that you can get to the world-famous woman (respected old man), who has been sitting under the Banyan for 40 years.

The sand here is pleasant, there is a lot of dry sand: just right for children. Far from all the beaches of North Goa can boast of having dry sand, and for children (and for some adults) this item is very important: burrowing into hot sand is so nice!

Arambol Beach

Goa’s most famous party beach. It is here that the most creative and extraordinary people settle. Arambol is famous for its Drum Circle, which gathers daily at sunset and accompanies the sun with its rhythm.

Arambol’s famous beach market is located next to the drum circle. Here everyone can put their creativity on public display and even earn money on it.

We ourselves chose Arambol as the place of our three-week stay in Goa, since all the most interesting things happen here. Here we found excellent apartments with a Russian hostess and a wonderful Coco Villa kindergarten, where Vanya studied with a tutor in order to keep up with classmates during the trip.

There are a lot of cafes (sheks) on Arambol. The most pleasant thing is to sit in sheks right on the shore and dine on some delicious Indian dishes while watching the sunset.

Sunsets on Arambol

Arambol has the most diverse shopping: everyone knows this. There is a very large market where you can buy a variety of souvenirs and gifts, and there are also many shops that sell essential goods, Indian cosmetics and Ayurveda.

But shopping in Arambol does not end with the market and shops: even on the beach, numerous beach vendors will not let you relax. They sell anything: fruits, coconuts, pareos and torn, bracelets, drums … But we have to admit that they are quite “cultured”: if you firmly say “no, thank you”, they will no longer torture you (as, for example, in Vietnam), but simply move on to the next victim.

The beach itself in Arambol is not very good: the beach strip is wide, but there is practically no dry sand. Every day in the morning we observed the tide when the sea approached almost the cafes, and at low tide (every evening) the sea goes about 200 meters away from these shacks.

Only on Arambol we saw such a large number of starfish: there are millions of them!

And we were also lucky to meet Flamingo here and was not lucky – the sea snake:

You can choose and book a hotel with discounts with discounts on the Booking Reservation website:

9000 9000 9000 9000 Mandrem

Arambol beach smoothly merges into Mandrem beach. You won’t see any boundaries. The beginning of Mandrem can be distinguished by the appearance of a small river near the sea. Its width and depth change depending on the ebb and flow of the tides. Throughout the entire Mandrem there are many bridges along which you can cross the river and get to coastal cafes and hotels.

Families with children love to settle in Mandrem, as there are small and shallow bays along the entire coastline of the beach where children can safely splash around.

Mandrem ends with small rocks (one might say, stones), behind which the next beach begins – Ashvem.

Ashvem Beach

A sparsely populated and quiet beach in North Goa. There are no huge stones on the beach (which are found on almost all the beaches of North Goa), so sunbathing and swimming on Ashvem is a pleasure. It is suitable for those who are looking for a quiet and secluded holiday.

But it is worth considering that there are few housing and shops here. But there are also practically no annoying beach vendors, which is a huge plus.

Morjim Beach

The most Russian beach in all of Goa. Here is the so-called “Russian” village, where our compatriots settle. They say that the locals even call this beach “Moscow Beach”: there are so many Russian speakers here.

Prices for housing and goods on the market are higher here than in the same Arambol: again, due to the large concentration of Russians.

The beach itself in Morjim is good: the gradual depth and wide beach strip make it very suitable for families with children. Moreover, there is a Russian kindergarten on the territory of the village of Morjim.

There are a lot of Russian cafes here that don’t really bother with names: Nasha Russia, Glavfish, Tchaikovsky. Apparently, they should evoke notes of nostalgia in the Russian soul and attract them with this.

Vagator Beach

There are two sights of Goa on this beach: Chapora Fort and the face of Shiva on the stones (we wrote about them in this article).

The beach is divided into two parts: Big Vagator – the closest beach to Chapora Fort and Little Vagator or Ozran beach – this is where the face of Shiva is located.

Vagator and neighboring Anjuna are the first beaches of Goa, open hippies. It was here that this movement began, at that time nothing was known about Arambol. Therefore, it is on Vagator Beach at 19In the 60s, an Italian sculptor (who, by the way, came here from Italy on foot) carved the famous face of Shiva.

In these photos, it seems that Shiva’s face is huge

In fact, it is so

Vagator Beach is beautiful: the rocks extending into the sea can serve as an excellent backdrop for photo shoots. But for children, this beach, as it seemed to us, is not suitable. Swimming in the sea in many places is dangerous because of the sharp rocks, and the sand here is only wet. And there are a lot of cows on Vagator Beach, like no other beach. They feel at home here, no one is chasing them (as, for example, on Arambol).

Smiling cow

Cows are friends with local crows:

Anjuna Beach

It was from Anjuna that the “settlement” of Goa by visiting hippies began (60-70 years of the last century). Then a variety of people from various countries rushed to India: some for spiritual enlightenment, some for a slick life, some to study the oldest culture in the world. And these people got to know each other, communicated with each other. And one day it happened that all these people agreed to celebrate Christmas together in Goa, namely in Anjuna. And they liked it so much that many decided to stay here for a month, a season, or for the rest of their lives (like the sculptor Anthony Karoli, who carved the face of Shiva in the rock).

Now most of the “party people” have migrated to Arambol, but Anjuna is still very popular with creative “out of this world” people.

a cow again…

There is a famous Flea Market in Anjuna: it also originates in the distant 70s, the times of hippies. At that time, many visiting freedom-loving people, having spent everything cleanly, did not have money for a return ticket. And in order to collect this money, they began to sell everything that could be sold: their valuables, clothes, or hand-made things that they made themselves. This market still exists, although it has turned into an ordinary day market, where tourists can buy souvenirs, clothes, tea, spices, etc. from local residents. Today Flea Market is the largest market in all of Goa.

Baga Beach

Baga Beach is famous for its unusual brown sand. The beach owes its name to the river of the same name, which flows here and flows into the Arabian Sea (it is also the Indian Ocean). Locals, who are afraid of the open ocean, and kids love to swim in this river.

Baga is a noisy, party place: there is everything for tourists: bars, shops, markets, massage parlors and a rich nightlife with trendy DJs and discos.

The beach is very crowded: there are many tourists and merchants. Beach parties often take place right on the sand. On this beach there is a club Titos, very famous among all tourists and locals. For families with children, it is rather unsuitable.

Calangute Beach

Calangute is known for its shops, restaurants and nightclubs. Unfortunately, only here you can find real branded stores, and not local shops with dubious quality clothes.

Calangute is more popular with Indians than with tourists. The city and the beach are beautiful. But the dirt that numerous Indians leave behind and the manure that is not cleaned up after the cows on the local beach scare away our and European tourists.

Spring camps and holidays abroad in camps and schools for children \

Spring camps abroad are recreation, new acquaintances, language courses, sports, creativity, entertainment and excursions. Programs designed specifically for spring break attract children, teenagers and students from different countries every year who are bored with staying at home.

One need only look at the strings of airlines that have entangled the planet to understand how strong our desire for travel is. The sea coasts, ski resorts, world capitals or small cozy cities that are difficult to find on the map are called on the way. Very young travelers can try their hand at going abroad without parents to a spring children’s camp abroad. Thanks to the careful organization of the tour and the stay in the camp and country, it is fun and safe!

Where to send a student in the spring for holidays:

  • UK
  • Switzerland
  • Belgium
  • Malta

The mild climate and clean air of sea or mountain resorts, professional teachers, counselors and animators create all the conditions so that foreign spring holidays leave only the best impressions. The administration of foreign camps selects staff to work with children with particular care. In addition to pedagogical experience, educators and teachers are required to understand child and adolescent psychology, respectful and benevolent attitude, and love for their work.

Spring break programs abroad include not only foreign language lessons, but also excursions, creative activities, sports.

Upon arrival at the foreign spring camp, the guys take a language test, after which they start a language course, which includes 15-20 lessons per week, lasting from 40 minutes to an hour each.

If a child loves music, attends a theater or art studio, in the right camp he will have the opportunity to learn and learn new things in his area of ​​interest. If his preferences are on the side of sports, in the camp he will find modern gyms and open areas.

At the end of the language program during the holidays, the children receive a certificate from the language school about participation in the program, rewards for participating in competitions and competitions.

Spring break in the UK – learning English and getting to know the country

English. The duration of spring break in England is usually one to two weeks. Classes are formed according to the results of testing and age. The program in most cases is aimed at learning general English, improving oral speech and pronunciation, overcoming the language barrier. The students interact a lot both in the classroom and outside the classroom.

Accommodation. As a rule, seasonal camps are located on the campuses of eminent colleges and boarding schools, which have excellent infrastructure for recreation and study. Children live on the territory of school residences, in comfortable rooms for 2-4 people with peers from other countries of the world. Meals 3-4 times a day, varied, at the request of the camp they organize a dietary table.

Optional. Bring tennis rackets, sneakers or boots, sportswear, swimwear to UK Spring Camp. The camp is also a talent workshop, open to all who love music, singing, dancing, theater and cinema, journalism, art and design. In the evening, discos, film screenings and thematic events dedicated to countries of the world, professions, games are held in the camps, the main purpose of which is to get to know and communicate with the participants.

Getting to know the country . A spring break trip to the UK gives you an inside look at how life and learning work in British boarding schools. Many programs are based on prestigious private schools, which are 100-500 years old. Children from all over the world get the opportunity to be filled with spirit and touch the ancient traditions of the educational institution, which expands their personal horizons, forms ambitions, goals and future, gives new dreams.

Spring holidays in Switzerland – blooming cities and snowy Alps

The geography of trips during the spring school holidays is not as wide as in summer or winter, but certainly not limited to just one direction. So, children are happy to go on spring break to Switzerland, away from noisy densely populated cities. A camp in Switzerland in the spring attracts with the opportunity to learn and practice several languages ​​at once, participate in a rich program of events, visit flourishing cities, snow-capped Alps and beautiful clear lakes.

For many, a camp abroad becomes a rehearsal before entering prestigious schools and universities in Europe.

In the spring in Switzerland, in small classes, you can study languages ​​and school subjects – French, German, English, Italian, history, geography, art, mathematics, as well as play sports and attend creative circles. Spring break in Switzerland is an opportunity to learn more about the world and make new friends. Only an hour a day on weekdays is devoted to homework – the rest of the time is devoted to new knowledge, entertainment, outdoor activities and communication.

If you want to perfectly organize a trip, from choosing a camp and filling out an application to resolving issues with a visa, air tickets, and meeting your happy child at the airport upon return – entrust this to EduTravel specialists.

Children’s vacation for the summer holidays 2020

Summer school holidays are the most desired time for all students. Each child is waiting for them with impatience and anticipation of an interesting vacation, fun entertainment, new acquaintances. One of the options for organizing summer holidays for children for the holidays can be a camp.
Children do not just relax in nature, gain strength and communicate with their peers, but also actively participate in a wide cultural and entertainment program. Interest circles, hikes, evenings spent by the fire will remain in the memory of the child for life.

If you decide for the first time to send your child to children’s vacation in the summer , it is best to choose a camp in MO, which is located nearby. In this case, you can visit the child on any day, and, if necessary, pick him up.

Children’s vacation for the autumn holidays 2020

The beginning of a new school year is always stressful due to a sudden change in the regime and the weather. A good way to temporarily change the situation and allow the child to relax mentally and physically is autumn children’s vacation in camp .

While parents are working, experienced counselors and animators will offer a rich and interesting program in accordance with the age characteristics of the child.

Children’s vacation in autumn is a balanced program – these are both sports and creative activities and intellectual games, as well as swimming in the pool, fresh air, proper nutrition and careful monitoring of the safety and health of the child.

Children’s holidays for the winter holidays 2020-2021

If you decide to add vivid impressions and give an unforgettable winter children’s holiday to your child, then we advise you to ask him with whom he wants to spend his winter holidays: with his family, friends or meet new peers. Thus, it will be easier for you to decide on a ticket to the winter camp – a tour with or without the New Year.

Children’s winter vacation is full of such entertainments as cheesecake rides, snowball fights, team building in the fresh frosty air, etc. Your child will forget about the bustle of the city during the winter holidays, being in harmony with nature. The winter adventure will give strength to cope with the school loads of the second half of the year and will be remembered by your child for a long time. Each child will gain new friends and pleasant memories.

Children’s rest for the New Year 2020!

New Year is the most fabulous time for children. During the winter holidays, every family has the opportunity to introduce their children to this mysterious season more closely: play various outdoor games in the snow, attend fun New Year events, and celebrate Christmas.

In order to make this New Year’s Eve unforgettable for your child , we suggest that you familiarize yourself with our options for children’s New Year’s holidays.

We offer vouchers to winter camps near Moscow or sightseeing tours to Veliky Ustyug. Throughout the holidays, children have an exciting and informative time with health benefits.

Children’s holiday for spring break 2020

The issue of preparing a child for the end of the school year also remains relevant. Best children’s holiday in spring is a change in the type of activity from mental to physical. A children’s spring camp in the Moscow region is perfect for this. The duration of shifts can vary within 3-7 days – a weekend camp or a vacation week. The main task of spring children’s holiday is to change the environment and gain new knowledge, skills and abilities, not only in an official school setting, but at ease, in the form of entertainment and play.

Children’s spring break programs in the camp “Petrushka” for children 7-12 years old and “Young Builder” for teenagers 12-15 years old provide this opportunity without overloading the child with information that is not mandatory for him. Personal development is a continuous process, including on vacation.

Honestly this was not my first choice, daycare period. But when I had no other choice little over a year ago, they accepted my child! I was very skeptical at first but I have to say that that opinion changed when I saw how much my child was learning and growing. They really do care about these babies! And as some of the reviews on here about the teachers don’t seem great, please put yourself in their shoes and keep day after day little ones, it can be quite trying at times but that doesn’t mean that they love our children any less, it just means that maybe our kids were a little “extra” that day lol. But in my opinion and after researching daycare after daycare, for this center to get 5 stars by the state is pretty darn good! They are clean, my child learns daily and they keep me more informed about my child then I ever thought possible! Great place, everyone knows everyone and genuinely cares about us as parents and our babies! I would definitely recommend to anyone! You definitely pay for what you get! The o my thing I would change is if they had an app where tefird22180@gmail. comsee my baby during the day and maybe a keyfob entrance program! All in all I love them and my baby’s teachers!!

04/12/2016

I have sent my children here since they opened (first as babies, now as after school care) and have had great experiences! Caring teachers and wonderful staff!

07/21/2015

This center is clean and looks appealing. The times you just show up it is clear the teachers put on a fake show to please family members. Kids seem unhappy

February is Family Support Awareness Month

Dallas, NC – The Partnership for Children of Lincoln & Gaston Counties (Partnership) is pleased to announce that February is Family Support Awareness Month, as proclaimed by Governor Cooper. The Partnership uses Smart Start funding to support programs serving children and families in Lincoln & Gaston Counties. Their impact on each of our communities has been remarkable.

The Lincoln County Child Advocacy Center (LCCAC) at the Lincoln County Coalition Against Child Abuse supports children who have experienced abuse and neglect along with their non-offending family members. Against the backdrop of a home-like setting, child victims experience the LCCAC as a safe space where they along with their families receive support to navigate the system and access the professionals and services they need in one place.  Smart Start funds pay for a forensic interviewer and victim advocacy and counseling services for children birth to age five and their families. The LCCAC has both transformed the way our community responds to child abuse and neglect, and helped victims experience safety and healing. To find out more about the LCCAC, visit https://cac-lincolncounty.org. View a powerful video here to learn more about the impact of this program.

“It is so important to all of our children who fall victim that we have the types of support that children receive in a child advocacy center.” ~ A grateful parent

In Gaston County, the Positive Parenting Program (Triple P), operated by the NC Cooperative Extension, Gaston County Center, is a collaboration among county organizations to support all parents and families. Through individual support and group training, the Triple P approach promotes children’s development and behavior management based on positive attention and communication. Priority is given to parents or caregivers of children birth to age five, and those who have been identified as being at high risk for child abuse or neglect. Research shows that many parents and caregivers who have successfully completed the program develop critical skills to be positive and effective parents for the long term. To find out more about the Gaston County Triple P Program, visit https://gaston.ces.ncsu.edu/family-consumer-science-program/gaston-county-triple-p/.

Upon completion, one parent shared, “This [Triple P] program is a huge help…it has helped me realize many different skills to use in my everyday life, as well as helping me and my son grow together!”

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.

Dixon 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

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.

Learning Adventures – Enrichment Program

Cooking Academy™ (3 – 12 Years)

In Cooking Academy, kids learn new recipes from cultures around the world and
develop a healthy relationship with food. They’ll whip up everything from Southwest
rainbow lettuce wraps to pumpkin muffins, building their skills in STEM, communication,
and more along the way. And yes—little chefs get to eat their culinary creations!

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.)

Spanish

Spanish Adventures provides young learners with a foundation for later success with
the Spanish language. Music, games, children’s Spanish literature, and other tools give
children multiple opportunities to hear, practice, and see Spanish language to develop
vocabulary and conversation skills. Curriculum includes lessons on greetings, numbers,
colors, animals, family, body parts, and pets, as well as how to engage conversationally
during common scenarios at home, a restaurant, or at the zoo.

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!

  • Since my son has started in KinderCare, I have seen him blossom into a very mature young man and he is talking more. This was the best option for him since he has been through a lot with some important family members being sick. I want to thank all of the staff. I picked KinderCare because it is nearby and I can quickly get there, if needed, and I can stop in to check up on him and to take him to lunch.

    Tina L. – KinderCare Parent
  • When we relocated to North Carolina, I was very worried about where my child would attend preschool. We toured several centers and did not feel that they would be the right fit for our family. We then toured KinderCare and the director Ms. Sharon and all her teachers were amazing! We felt very comfortable and she answered all of our questions. We knew immediately that that’s where we wanted our daughter to attend. Our daughter has been attending KinderCare since she was eight months old and she will be two years old in a couple of months. The staff has become like family, and I never worry when I have to leave her. They are very informative about her day and communication between the teachers and parents are great. Also their curriculum has played an important role in her development. We are very grateful to have found our KinderCare center, they are like family.

    Ciara – KinderCare Parent
  • Dixon KinderCare is our second family. My son, Joshua Jr., has been a part of the KinderCare family since six weeks old. He is now four years old. He has grown so much and learned a lot throughout the past four years. From the KinderCare office staff to the KinderCare teaching staff, they all play a role in my son’s learning and life. Enrolling Joshua Jr. in Dixon KinderCare was the best educational decision made for my son.

Dorothy Cotton

For EastEnders character, see Spot cotton.

Dorothy Cotton (January 5, 1930 – June 10, 2018) was an American civil rights activist who was a leader in the Civil Rights Movement in the United States [1] and a member of the inner circle of one of its core organizations, the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC). As director of education for the SCLC, she was arguably the highest ranked woman in the organization.

Early life and education

Dorothy Fordan, 9 Julia, 9 Julia, 9 of the year – Dorothy Lee Foreman. [2] Her mother, Maggie Pelham Foreman, died when she was 3 years old. [2] As a result, she and her three sisters were raised by their father, Claude Forman, a worker in a tobacco factory and steel mill. [2] with only third grade education. [3] Life in their isolated southern town was a daily struggle. [4] Cotton’s father often beat Cotton and her three sisters. [2] Cotton said, “I don’t remember having anything caring at home.” [2]

While Cotton was in high school, she met Rose Grey, an English teacher who positively changed her life and inspired her to be successful and powerful. Gray, as director of the school’s annual play, frequently put her on the lead, which Foreman said made her feel “such a connection to her.” [5] Gray helped Clap find a place at Shaw University where she studied English, and also secured her two part-time jobs on campus, one in the school cafeteria and the other cleaning in the teacher’s dormitory. When Dr. Daniel, a teacher at Shaw, was offered the presidency at Virginia State University, Cotton went along and worked as his housekeeper. Cotton has described his work in the house as “half daughter, half housekeeper”. [5] While in Virginia, she met a man named Horace Sims, a student in her Shakespeare class, who introduced her to George Cotton. George Cotton was not a student at the state of Virginia. Dorothy married George at the President’s house immediately after graduation. She then continued her studies and received a master’s degree in speech therapy from Boston University at 1960 year. It was in Petersburg that Cotton joined the local church led by Wyatt T. Walker. It is here that her active work in the field of civil rights will begin.

Civil rights activism

In an interview with the Library of Congress, [5] Cotton recalls an incident when she was on the street and a white boy rode a bicycle and sang “in the heart of a Negro town.” [5] She talks about this experience and says that it made her angry and she never forgot about it, giving her “awareness of the wrongness of the system”. [5] This set her mentality up as she began her journey working with the Civil Rights Movement.

During her time at Virginia State University, she contacted the local church, led by Wyatt T. Walker, regional leader of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. She says she was drawn to the church because of her involvement in the movement. [5] Walker asked Cotton if she would like to help organize and train children to picket. Her job was to teach them how to properly picket and march for the movement. “She helped Walker protest segregation at the library and at the dinner table, and she taught direct action tactics to students.” [6] Shortly after she intervened, Martin Luther King Jr. was invited to the church to speak. Both King and Cotton were on the program of the evening. Cotton read a piece of poetry and King showed interest and then spoke to Cotton. While in Petersburg, King asked Walker if he would move to Atlanta to help King form the Southern Christian Leadership Conference. Walker said he would only go if he could bring two of his closest associates with him. The two partners were Jim Wood and Dorothy Cotton. Cotton made the decision to leave, but to stay there for only three months. She ended up staying there for 23 years. In those years, she made a huge contribution to the Civil Rights Movement. [3] When Cotton first arrived at Atlanta, she was Walker’s administrative assistant. Soon after, she was hired by King to help Highland Folk School, a badly publicized school. At Highlander, Cotton met Septim Clark with whom she would work on a citizenship education program.

Cotton’s participation in the movement dominated her life. This was due to her sense of duty. In her autobiography, Cotton wrote, “Our work with SCLC was not just a job, it was a lifelong commitment.” [7] Perhaps her greatest achievement in the movement was the Civic Education Program: a program designed to help blacks register to vote.

Citizenship Education Program

I understand that people generally viewed the civil rights movement as just marches. And I know first hand that it’s not true. We had a big training program called the Citizenship Education Program. The reason for going through this citizenship training was to help African Americans who were living at a time when we had what I call the American style. apartheid.

Dorothy Cotton, interview with PBS (2013)

Cotton’s close collaboration with Septima Clark and Esau Jenkins, through both the Tennessee Highland Folk School and the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, created a mass movement in southern rural areas during a time of violent and tense civil rights era of the 1960s. Esau Jenkins was one of the first participants in the formation of the Program. As an independent businessman with a “third-grade education but a Ph.D.” Jenkins traveled by private bus to the mainland from the offshore islands of South Carolina, taking local residents to and from work. [4]

During these trips, Esau would initiate conversations with his passengers about the power and importance of their personal voice. Esau recognized the urgent need for educational programs to raise awareness of political and civil rights in order to galvanize African American communities into action for change. These informal conversations were necessary to form the base of the first participants in the Civic Education Program. [4]

The civic education program is primarily focused on teaching voter registration requirements as well as community and individual empowerment. Most Southern states have enacted voter registration laws specifically designed to promote literacy in order to disqualify potential African American voters. Such requirements for registering to vote included being able to speak arbitrary parts of the constitution as well as signing one’s name in cursive. Many of those who forced these premises on blacks were themselves illiterate, making the process unreliable and subjective; many blacks were rejected. The program sought to strengthen their understanding that their right to vote is inviolable. The program also taught basic daily needs. Another hope for the program was to create a wave of education that would spread throughout the local communities, with community members themselves being teachers. [8]

The hope for the educational program was that it would spread to other communities and that these programs and schools would be established in other communities in the South and eventually throughout the United States. The brochure for the program clearly states the goal: “Their immediate program is teaching reading and writing. They help students pass literacy tests for voting.” [9] These programs also included tuition, training, and even travel to a training center. Through its commitment, the Civic Education Program will help many blacks register over the next few years. The civic education program had a profound effect on the movement, with over 6,000 men and women participating in workshops and classes. [4]

Cotton helped James Bevel organize students during the Birmingham Campaign and the Children’s Crusade and taught citizenship classes in the South during that era.

We offer transportation to and from the local schools in the area. If you request transportation, we will expect your child to be on the van everyday, unless you tell us otherwise. This is to guarantee the safety of your child.

  • Parents must notify the center at least one hour prior to school dismissal time if their child will not be riding the van in the afternoon. Ideally, a note should be written and given to QCC staff stating the dates of the days you know your child will not be riding in the van from school to the center.

  • Please do not assume that we will know your child is not riding the van if they did not ride in the morning or if a sibling is not at the center.

  • Roll is checked at the school and upon arrival at the center. You will be called to verify your child’s location if your child does not get on the van when expected.

  • Refusal to call and let us know your child will not be riding the van could result in a $5.00 fee for each offense.

Hours of Operation*

Please note that from 11:30AM and 2:00PM children are preparing for naptime and resting. Dropping your child off during this time is strongly discouraged. This is not only disrupts other children that are trying to rest, but it may also upset your own child if they have to lie down for a nap as soon as they arrive.

Calendar

Holiday Closings

We will be closed on the following holidays. Should any of these dates fall on the weekend, we will observe the holiday on Friday or Monday, whichever day is the closest to the holiday. Tuition is not waived or altered for closings.

There will be other holidays, such as Black Friday, Christmas Eve, and Spring Break for which parents must sign up ahead of time in order for their child to attend. This allows us to plan staff scheduling and meals. Depending on the number of kids that sign up, Director’s will staff for those children only and may possibly close early. Each center will have this information posted so make sure you check with your facility about the closing time on these days.

Children enrolled in the ABC Program will follow the local school district’s calendar for holidays and school closings. If your child needs care when ABC classrooms are closed, please contact your center’s director.

According to Regulation 23.04 in the Arkansas Department of Education Rules Governing the ABC Program, we will follow the Establishment Clause in the First Amendment. ABC materials must be neutral with respect to religion, and no religious activity may occur during the ABC Day.

We struggle to measure quality child care — and even more to fund it

When Sasha Shunk first opened a child care center in her Maine home nearly 20 years ago, she knew she would have to stand out among the nearly 3,000 other home-based child care providers operating in the state at the time.

This story also appeared in Mind/Shift

“I always knew there were other child care providers a road away or the street down from me,” said Shunk, who cares for 12 children at $325 a week, each, and has about 40 more children on a waitlist. “I looked for training, I sought out ways to differentiate myself.

Over the years, she has earned a master’s degree in early childhood education. She’s earned accreditation from the National Association for Family Child Care, an organization in which she is now involved as a state representative. She revamped her program to offer an extensive outdoor classroom. And her center has reached the highest level of quality in Maine’s quality rating and improvement system, or QRIS, a voluntary program that is meant to encourage child care providers to meet high standards and, not incidentally, provide parents a way to find programs that are exceeding the state’s basic licensing requirements.

Sasha Shunk works with some of the children in her home-based child care program before the coronavirus pandemic. Families in her state have fewer options for providers than they did when she entered the child care profession nearly 20 years ago. Credit: Courtesy Sasha Shunk

But the family child care landscape has changed in Maine over the years. There are fewer than 800 care providers in the state now, Shunk said, and with the intense need for child care, those few don’t have any problem attracting clients. Shunk said the dwindling competition has made it harder for parents to find care, and has removed an incentive for providers to pursue quality.

Shunk says more providers must be brought into the industry and given the resources and incentives to improve. That takes time, but is a worthwhile policy goal, she said.

“When you’re entry-level, you are prioritizing the health and safety of the children, but there are different components that you can build upon,” Shunk said. “Just because a program is a level one doesn’t mean you shouldn’t send your child there,” she said, referring to the first step on her state’s child care ranking system. But hopefully, entry-level providers can develop plans to continue their growth, she said.

The need for increased child care access and quality have never been more important, and the child care industry has never been more fragile. The Biden administration’s signature domestic bill, Build Back Better, was the latest attempt by the federal government to increase both the number of child care providers and to ensure those providers offer safe and nurturing environments. But the bill was benched indefinitely in late December, when Sen. Joe Manchin, a Democrat from West Virginia, raised concerns about the overall cost of the legislation.

Now, child care advocates hope the fractures exposed by the pandemic will focus public attention on creating some kind of government support for improving a child care system that is currently on the ropes.

“What we have is breaking us,” said Mary Beth Testa, a policy consultant with the National Association for Family Child Care. “Leaving things as they are is not the answer.”

Related: The racist and sexist roots of child care in America explain why the system is in shambles

Testa’s organization had been particularly enthusiastic about provisions in the bill that would have greatly expanded the number of children eligible for child care subsidies, and that would have required states to base those subsidies on the cost of providing high-quality care. Currently, most states link subsidies to the market rate of child care in a given community, but the market rate can be much lower than the actual cost of a high-quality program.

An increase in funding is necessary because quality improvement efforts have long been grossly underfunded, said Susan Hibbard, the executive director of the BUILD Initiative, a national organization that helps states create systems to measure child care quality. Without sufficient funds, some programs have not been able to survive. For example, in 2017 Mississippi discontinued its QRIS program, citing financial reasons. State QRIS can often end up funneling limited resources to child care programs that are already doing well, Hibbard said, rather than investing in programs that need support to improve.

“You do want to give the three-star centers enough money to be able to maintain their quality,” Hibbard said, referring to centers that meet state measures of high quality. “But you also need to have something for all the smaller programs. That’s more important, and that needs to be the first thought.”

Some states are still energized around the issue of how to appropriately measure and motivate high-quality child care, even without the backing of a bill like Build Back Better, said Terri Sabol, an assistant professor of human development and social policy at Northwestern University. “We see states that even without federal funding seem to want to invest in this,” said Sabol, who studies the factors that lead to healthy child development. “Yes, it would be awesome if there were this federal system that supported it, but absent that there’s great appetite for figuring out how to measure quality.”

And yet, quality has proven incredibly challenging to measure in a sector that includes everything from a single provider caring for a few children in her home to for-profit entities with dozens of employees. It’s also difficult to nudge providers who are already operating on razor-thin margins to make extensive — and sometimes expensive — changes in their operations. One incentive used in some states is to give a larger child care subsidy to higher-rated centers. But not all providers take public dollars.

“It was very hard for centers to be responsive to any pressures to improve without any resources to put into it,” said Daphna Bassok, an associate professor of education and public policy at the University of Virginia, and a researcher in child care quality measurements.

“There’s a massive amount of instability in child care right now,” Bassok said. The focus from providers is “on a very baseline level of quality — how do I get enough teachers in this classroom every day?”

State and federal government have tried many ways to incentivize quality. What child care advocates liked about Build Back Better is that it included generous federal incentives to increase the number of providers, encourage providers to make quality improvements, and pay for center renovations and repairs.

The bill also would have required that child care workers be paid enough to lift them above the federal poverty line. Child care workers earn less than $14 an hour, on average.

But Build Back Better did not require states to start from scratch when it came to measuring child care quality. States were expected to build on the framework that most of them already have, the QRIS. Nearly every state has a quality system, such as “Great Start to Quality” in Michigan, “Capital Quality” in the District of Columbia, Texas’ eponymous “Texas Rising Star” system, and the “Quality for ME” program in Maine, in which Shunk participates.

Many QRIS frameworks measure quality by combining scores on several different measures, such as teacher-child interactions, staff training, teacher-student ratios and family involvement. The framework then boils all those measures down into a simple four- or five-point scale. A center that meets minimum standards would earn a 1. A 4 or 5 rating indicates a top provider.

But research has found that while there might be notable differences between a minimally qualified provider and one of the best, it was hard to see meaningful distinctions between centers in the middle — those that might receive a 2 or 3 on a 5-point scale. A 2017 study of Oregon’s QRIS — which has since been revamped — reported that even though providers were ranked on a 5-star scale, there was no difference in observed quality “between programs rated 1 vs 2, or between programs rated 3 vs 4 or 5, or between programs rated 5 vs those rated 3 or 4.”

A bigger problem arose as researchers started to look even more closely at child outcomes. The provider ratings based on these composite scores weren’t predicting how well a child was prepared for school.

In 2013, Sabol was the lead author on one of the first research papers to raise concerns about rating systems that attempted to boil several measures down to one score. A single measure — teacher-child interactions — was more predictive of good child outcomes than the composite scores.

More studies followed, with similar results. A 2019 report, prepared at the request of the U.S. Department of Education, looked at nine states that had conducted their own research on how they were measuring child care quality. That report also found that children who attended higher-rated programs did not have better developmental outcomes than those who attended lower-rated ones.

Measuring quality is still essential, Sabol said. But, she added, “those findings really highlighted the need for a more slimmed-down approach that really focuses on the key elements of quality that matter for the development of young children” — how providers teach, talk with and play with the children in their care.

States are responding to the research, in some cases by revising their child care rating systems to focus even more closely on the interactions between adults and children. Louisiana, for example, invested in a mandatory rating system that requires observers to rate teacher-child interactions in every early childhood classroom. Bassok’s research shows that, over time, those interactions have improved.

Investing in teacher training, however, is difficult in a field where educators may stay just a year or so before moving on. To help address this problem, Bassok is working on a program in Virginia that gives early childhood teachers $1,500 to $2,000 to stay with their employer for a year. The stipend has helped cut teacher turnover.

Sabol said the next generation of ratings systems should try to include even more nuanced measures of the elements that are known to affect young children. For example, ratings focus on an overall score for a center, but individual classrooms at the center could differ considerably. Even within a given classroom, children’s experiences could vary.

“Our work is showing there is just as much variation in kids’ classroom experiences between classrooms as there is between centers,” Sabol said. “We really need to be able to characterize classrooms accurately and not assume kids are having the same experience.”

If a massive federal investment in early childhood education does not make it out of Congress, expanding high-quality child care still has to be a priority, Shunk said.

“Clearly, [Build Back Better] is not going to pass the way we had originally hoped it was going to pass, but I am hopeful,” she said. “I can understand the cost being a concern, but that’s still some short-term thinking. We really have to look long-term to make this a sustainable early childhood system so that parents can be working and children are in quality environments from a young age.”

How to choose the right kindergarten

Recommendations for parents on raising children

How to choose the right kindergarten

Antonina Feneva

aspects to pay attention to. The mother of the future kindergartener has to pay attention to the nutrition of children in a preschool institution, and to the attitude of educators towards children in the group, in a word, to many aspects of the life of a beloved child who goes on his first big voyage. At the same time, you must not forget anything, because transferring a child from one preschool to another is not always an easy and painless process, so many parents hope to find “their own”, the most reliable kindergarten that will suit their child and help the baby find his second home.

Seven important tips for choosing the right kindergarten, which will help you focus on the most important aspects

1. Choosing a kindergarten: private or public

they are attracted by the conditions of (although more expensive, but in some aspects more reliable) private preschool institutions. First you need to figure out if the family can afford to pay for the services of a private kindergarten. If possible, but the second step could be to visit public and private kindergartens to actually identify the differences: strengths and weaknesses.

2. Decide on the goals of attending kindergarten

The next thing to pay attention to is the parents’ own goals regarding the specifics of the kindergarten. Ask yourself the question: “What is the most important thing for me in the educational process?”, Because your feeling of satisfaction with the work of the preschool educational institution staff will depend on this. For example, kindergarten staff pays maximum attention to the development of the child’s creative and physical abilities, while not focusing on quality child care. For parents who do not care at all what developmental methodology the preschool teachers work on, it will not be very pleasant to know that children while playing on the playground suffer from a lack of attention from educators, which leads to injuries and falls.

We determine the parental preferences:

  • High-quality supervision and care for the safety of the child in the kindergarten
  • Following the most effective methods for developing children’s abilities and character
  • Teaching children numeracy, reading, a foreign language and other useful life skills, such as the basics of healthy eating
  • Kindergarten is a territory of children’s communication, so the more interesting the children attending preschool, the better.

We make a choice in favor of one of the above directions and pay attention to it at the first visit to the kindergarten.

3. The distance to the kindergarten also plays a role.

Pay attention to the remoteness of the kindergarten from the child’s home. Think about how parents can facilitate the process of bringing the baby to preschool. If the kindergarten is located close to the place of work of the parents, then this can be another plus in favor of choosing a convenient kindergarten.

4. Collect all the necessary information in numbers

When choosing a good kindergarten from several options, you can make a table with important numbers. In this form, the collected information is better structured and helps to make the right choice.

The following information can be entered in the comparison table:

  • Kindergarten opening and closing times;
  • Number of children in the group;
  • Number of caregivers and nannies in the group;
  • Meal data (time for breakfast, lunch, dinner) ;
  • Data on payment and additional contributions;
  • Travel time to kindergarten;
  • Number of educational courses in the kindergarten programme;
  • The amount of payment for additional educational courses provided by employees of preschool educational institutions.

5. What do children eat in kindergarten? Take it seriously. For example, you need to find out whether food is prepared right on the premises of the institution or whether it is delivered. If the food is imported, then it may not be as fresh and healthy as compared to what is prepared in the kindergarten itself.

6. Reconnaissance in force

After choosing a few kindergartens you like and collecting all the necessary information from friends and acquaintances, try to find time and visit all the “suitable” children’s institutions in order to get to know the teaching staff, to feel the psychological atmosphere in which you will spend a large part of your preschooler’s day. At the same time, be a bit of a “scout” and keep an eye on all the “little things”:

  • Watching what happens to children on a walk
  • We pay attention to the style of communication between teachers and pupils
  • Do adults play with children or do children play by themselves
  • How adults resolve conflicts
  • What do teachers do when it’s cold outside: sit indoors all day or go on short walks
  • How is the quiet hour
  • What attention is paid to comfort in the premises of the kindergarten
  • Do you feel natural sympathy for the future teacher?
  • Are children reloaded with activities or given time for play and entertainment?
  • What smells in the dining room and from the kitchen? Delicious or unpleasant?
  • Do you feel peace, peace and tranquility in your soul?

Be sure to take your baby on a “tour” and listen to his feelings: if the child immediately felt that it would be boring in the “exemplary” institution and he would not be really dear and needed here, then feel free to go look for another Kindergarten.

7. The adaptation period is an important time in the life of a preschool child

Find out the peculiarities of the adaptation period, when you will go to kindergarten with your child. Make sure the teachers understand the importance of this activity and are committed to providing you with all the help you need to help your child get used to the new environment.

The reliability of a kindergarten depends on many factors: the professionalism of teachers and cooks, nannies and even a janitor; from the quality of toys and high-quality repair of premises. But it is quite difficult to make a choice right away, so full confidence in the correctness of the choice will come only after one or two weeks of visiting the kindergarten group. All efforts to find “their” kindergarten will be more than justified by the child’s quick adaptation to the team and life outside the home. This will manifest itself in the fact that the baby’s behavior will not undergo drastic changes, unexpected whims will not appear, and the parents will understand that the child is all right. The pleasure of visiting your favorite kindergarten is a rather pleasant reward for responsible parents who decide to choose the right kindergarten for their favorite miracle child.

Kinder City Kindergarten Services | Kindergarten in Gelendzhik

Our private Kinder City Kindergarten provides services under the Origins Program edited by L. A. Paramonova. The current program is an innovative educational document for preschool institutions. It maintains the best traditions of national education, at the same time being a modern innovative product. The creators of the program laid down several principles in the document. One of which is the most important is the preservation of the uniqueness and self-value of preschool childhood, as an important stage in the overall development of a person. A key feature of preschool childhood is familiarization with the values ​​of culture, the socialization of the child in society. All this happens through the leading type of children’s activity, the game. The program was developed in accordance with federal state requirements, taking into account the latest achievements of science and practice of domestic / s foreign preschool education.

Basic kindergarten services:

Full day.

Kinder City Private Kindergarten invites children to full day groups. The group operates from Monday to Friday from 8:00 to 19:00. Here the child will be offered 5 meals a day and all the educational programs that take place in our kindergarten (educational games and activities according to the program, communication with peers, walks, sleep, exercises, hygiene procedures, exercise therapy).

Mini kindergarten (not full day).

If you do not want your child to attend a full-time kindergarten, then our Kinder City kindergarten offers a short stay group, which is open Mon-Fri until 12.30. (with lunch) or until 15.00. (with sleep). Here the baby will do the same as the children in the kindergarten groups (educational games and activities according to the program, communication with peers, walks). The only difference is that he will attend only those classes that are scheduled during the day.

Hourly stay.

Hourly stay is a convenient offer for parents who need to leave their child under supervision for a short time. Also, children who are just starting to get used to the kindergarten (adaptation group) are taken to the hourly stay group.

Weekend group.

Kinder City Private Kindergarten offers childcare on weekends, is also open 24/7. In the comfortable conditions of the playrooms, qualified th educator. The service involves individual work with a small number of children. Game activities, developmental activities, good nutrition, walks, daytime sleep. Your children are waiting for high-quality care and good attitude of the employees of our kindergarten.

Early childhood development.

Your child is your continuation. And the sooner you start investing in him certain knowledge and skills, the more success he will achieve in adulthood. And this is our sacred function, our parental mission – to do everything so that our offspring are better than we are. Smarter and more promising. This is the meaning of evolution, especially since many effective methods are available to you at the Kinder City Early Development Center! (link to development center)

Productive activities: modeling, drawing, appliqué, manual labor, construction, etc.;

Productive activity in kindergarten is a kind of cultural practice where the successful formation and realization of the abilities of pupils takes place, and which can be organized in the form of a joint activity of an adult with children. Productive activities include drawing, modeling, designing, embroidery, assembling mosaics and appliqué. These activities differ from the game in that they are associated with the creation of some final product. Such actions develop figurative forms of thinking, as well as purposefulness Th, the ability to plan and achieve results.

Speech development

Speech development in kindergarten is carried out not only in the classroom, but also in the joint activities of children with the educator and with peers, so it is important for the educator to include games for speech development in planning work. It can be all kinds of riddles, tongue twisters, games, etc.

Getting to know the outside world and social reality

In working with children of middle preschool age, the task of expanding children’s knowledge of the immediate environment, a gradual transition from highlighting pronounced qualities and properties (color, shape, size, etc.) to establishing more complex connections and relationships, essential characteristics , underlying the first generic concepts (toys, shoes, clothes, tools, etc. ). It is necessary to teach children to consider objects, highlighting the features of their subject content.

Social and emotional development .

One of the tasks of all specialists and educators in kindergarten is the moral development and education of preschool children, instilling in them the basic moral qualities and foundations that will later help them communicate with other people and adequately relate to their behavior and actions.

Musical education: theater, music classes.

In the kindergarten we are engaged in musical activities. We are working on the development of musical abilities, instilling aesthetic taste. The kindergarten and the family are the two main teams responsible for the development and upbringing of the child. Musical art is of great importance in mental, moral, aesthetic and physical education.

Physical education: physical education classes.

The basis for the correct development of the child is constant care, prevention and physical education of preschool children. Mastering natural movements, such as walking and running, crawling and overcoming obstacles, contributes to the rapid intellectual and functional development of children in kindergarten, stimulates growth processes and improves health. Proper physical education of children is one of the key tasks of preschool institutions.

Preparing for school: learning to read and write, learning to read, developing elementary mathematical concepts.

School preparation courses implement the main directions of development of a child of preschool age: teaching literacy, teaching reading, development of elementary mathematical concepts. The course program includes directly educational activities in the main areas: mathematics and logic, writing and reading, speech development and the world around, rhetoric.

Apache2 Debian Default Page: It works

Apache2 Debian Default Page

This is the default welcome page used to test the correct
operation of the Apache2 server after installation on Debian systems.
If you can read this page, it means that the Apache HTTP server installed at
this site is working properly. You should replace this file (located at
/var/www/html/index.html) before continuing to operate your HTTP server.

If you are a normal user of this web site and don’t know what this page is
about, this probably means that the site is currently unavailable due to
maintenance.
If the problem persists, please contact the site’s administrator.

Debian’s Apache2 default configuration is different from the
upstream default configuration, and split into several files optimized for
interaction with Debian tools. The configuration system is
fully documented in
/usr/share/doc/apache2/README.Debian.gz
. Refer to this for the full
documentation. Documentation for the web server itself can be
found by accessing the manual if the apache2-doc
package was installed on this server.

The configuration layout for an Apache2 web server installation on Debian systems is as follows:

/etc/apache2/
|-- apache2.conf
|       `--  ports.conf
|-- mods-enabled
|       |-- *.load
|       `-- *.conf
|-- conf-enabled
|       `-- *.conf
|-- sites-enabled
|       `-- *.conf
          
  • apache2.conf is the main configuration
    file. It puts the pieces together by including all remaining configuration
    files when starting up the web server.
  • ports. conf is always included from the
    main configuration file. It is used to determine the listening ports for
    incoming connections, and this file can be customized anytime.
  • Configuration files in the mods-enabled/,
    conf-enabled/ and sites-enabled/ directories contain
    particular configuration snippets which manage modules, global configuration
    fragments, or virtual host configurations, respectively.
  • They are activated by symlinking available
    configuration files from their respective
    *-available/ counterparts. These should be managed
    by using our helpers

    a2enmod,
    a2dismod,

    a2ensite,
    a2dissite,

    and

    a2enconf,
    a2disconf
    . See their respective man pages for detailed information.

  • The binary is called apache2. Due to the use of
    environment variables, in the default configuration, apache2 needs to be
    started/stopped with /etc/init.d/apache2 or apache2ctl.
    Calling /usr/bin/apache2 directly will not work with the
    default configuration.

By default, Debian does not allow access through the web browser to
any file apart of those located in /var/www,
public_html
directories (when enabled) and /usr/share (for web
applications). If your site is using a web document root
located elsewhere (such as in /srv) you may need to whitelist your
document root directory in /etc/apache2/apache2. conf.

The default Debian document root is /var/www/html. You
can make your own virtual hosts under /var/www. This is different
to previous releases which provides better security out of the box.

Please use the reportbug tool to report bugs in the
Apache2 package with Debian. However, check existing bug reports before reporting a new bug.

Please report bugs specific to modules (such as PHP and others)
to respective packages, not to the web server itself.

By forcing children to commit suicide, the administrators of death groups compensate for their inferiority

With the development of the Internet, children sometimes face insurmountable challenges. The topic is very sensitive.

An extended meeting of the Collegium of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia took place. It was attended by Russian President Vladimir Putin. A separate topic was teenage suicide. With the development of the Internet, children sometimes face insurmountable challenges. The topic is very sensitive.

“Another threat has appeared in the information sphere, which I would like to speak about separately – the spread of websites promoting suicide. Criminals target teenage and youth audiences, children with a fragile psyche or those in a difficult life situation. In this I support the initiative of the deputies of the State Duma to supplement the legislation with a norm that expands the list of actions in which criminal liability for incitement to suicide sets in. This will make it possible to prosecute the owners, creators and administrators of such sites, to stop their destructive, I want to emphasize once again, criminal activity” – said Vladimir Putin.

In fact, we are talking about remote killing technology. What is the scale of the problem?

Author: Pavel Zarubin

In several countries of the post-Soviet space, the topic of teenage suicide is one of the main ones.

In Russia, messages began to spread on the WhatsApp messenger that the Ministry of Internal Affairs allegedly warned schools about an allegedly planned mass teenage suicide. Everything has been refuted. Organizers are looking for. But law enforcement agencies confirm that some of the Russian teenagers who committed suicide in the past two years did so, among other things, because of suicide propaganda on the Internet.

“She was my best, most beautiful princess in the world, I still can’t believe what happened, for me she is always alive,” says Elena Davydova, the mother of the deceased Angelina.

Elena Davydova keeps all those dolls that she and her daughter Angelina made together. Talented and creative child. Unusual slang in the 7th grade, mother considered small oddities in behavior to be quite normal phenomena for adolescence.

On December 25, 2015, she was informed that her daughter had thrown herself out of a window. Over the past year and a half, Elena Davydova has been conducting her own investigations, meeting other parents whose children have died. Sergei Pestov’s daughter Diana committed suicide. It turned out that they all belonged to certain groups in social networks, in which ideas about the worthlessness of life were imposed.

“When a child forms himself as a person, he is instilled with depressive, destructive things, when he is crushed as a person and made out of him, excuse me, a bag of bones. That is, there is a completely reformatted consciousness,” Sergey Pestov believes.

It all starts, however, in reverse: some Internet friends offer help. Almost every teenager has a stage when it seems to him that his parents do not understand, his classmates despise him, he has acne on his face, his body is ugly and fat, there are terrible exams ahead, everyone demands something and wants something from you.

“An orphan with living parents. That is, dad is in business, mom is also busy somewhere, and the child is actually abandoned, he is left to himself. Everyone buys him, he is well dressed, he has modern phones, and so on, but he does not gets the main thing. And the child feels it perfectly, he does not receive care, love, “explained Boris Polozhy, professor, head of the department of the V. P. Serbsky Federal Medical Research Center for Psychiatry and Narcology.

“What does a parent usually do? He begins to scold, shame, thereby lowering self-esteem even more, increasing the feeling of loneliness, thereby alienating this teenager from himself and his family. Where should he go? Where his name is. And his name is some uncles who say: “You are lonely, I understand you, your parents do not understand you, but I will help you,” explains Maria Kiseleva, psychologist, psychotherapist, candidate of psychological sciences.0003

The so-called curators, puppeteers, who imagined themselves to be the arbiters of destinies, gave their answers to teenage questions, step by step raising the stakes. At first, the child was instructed to draw something on his hand and put the photo on the Internet. The teenager did it, because it seems to be both a game and an opportunity to assert oneself. Then there are the cuts. The last step was calls for suicide as supposedly the only way to solve problems.

“Administrators and curators are also selected for a reason. These people are very often flawed, who in this way try to raise their authority at least for themselves,” said Vadim Gilod, head of the crisis department of the Yeramishantsev City Clinical Hospital.

One young man, who is now under investigation, clearly belongs to this type of person. On the Web, in his community, he seems to be omnipotent and omnipotent, in reality he cannot connect two words.

“We can preliminarily say that his motivation lies in the events of his childhood, when he was offended by his peers. From this a hostile attitude towards children arose, which, taking into account the peculiarities of his psyche, led to such actions,” said Svetlana Petrenko, Acting Head of the Department interaction with the media of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation.

But did he act on his own or was there someone else behind him? Psychologists are sure that only well-prepared people can trample on the child’s psyche so subtly. Detention of this young man clearly required a special will, because suicidal groups are such a new phenomenon that there was simply no law to combat them. But parliamentarians are planning a quick and tough response – a bill under which the organizer of such communities faces 12 years in prison.

“There is no doubt that those persons who offer a child tests confirming that he is ready to commit suicide, setting tasks for him, are like an explosive device clockwork, where the child goes step by step and inevitably those who are at the other end wires understand that death will follow. Therefore, these are the people who act absolutely intentionally, “said Irina Yarovaya, Deputy Chairman of the State Duma.

The appearance of the document is welcomed in the Internet community, because without the criminal liability of provocateurs and perpetrators of suicide, the fight against such groups is largely enthusiasm.

Office of the largest Russian social network VKontakte. New special measures have been developed here to prevent the spread of such groups. In just two months – 600 thousand blocked accounts. Such a huge number, of course, is due to the increased hype – new communities are massively trying to create someone just like that, someone for advertising purposes, someone out of a desire to become famous. But every VKontakte user can now complain to the moderators if he believes that any of the pages have signs of suicide propaganda. And it’s almost impossible to create such a page now – instant blocking.

VKontakte created a powerful neural network – a fast-running computer program that tracks attempts to regenerate such groups and pages when they try to change the name, but leave the essence of the former.

“We signaled to our moderators that, most likely, in the new modified posts we are talking about calls for suicide or any other problems,” said Evgeny Krasnikov, head of the VKontakte press service.

After blocking, the user will have to answer the question, why is he writing this at all? And if it turns out that a person is writing about suicide seriously, VKontakte redirects him to a special psychological center.

The charity foundation’s strong point is that conversations with psychologists also take the form of correspondence via the Internet, because many teenagers are afraid to call and talk about their problems. In February alone, the Your Territory Online Center received 8,000 requests.

All major Internet companies have adopted a zero-tolerance attitude towards deadly content. Together with Roskomnadzor – total blocking. According to the head of Roskomnadzor Alexander Zharov, 10,000 communities and websites that encourage teenagers to commit suicide have been closed. But blocking leads to only temporary success, dangerous groups can migrate to even more closed digital environments, for example, instant messengers. To solve the problem, an integrated approach is clearly needed – it is important to act proactively, to work in the family, in society.

A terrible story when Pskov teenagers shot police officers, committed suicide and broadcast everything live on the Periscope Internet application. Yes, the technologies are new, but the problem is as old as the world: bad relations with parents, the desire to prove their case, their importance, to attract attention by any means.

“There are no difficult children in the world. They appear as a result of the influence of adults. It is necessary to work with teachers, with school psychologists to identify such children, to develop a non-individual program for them, an individual approach of the teacher in the classroom. The child ceases to be a bully. there is no need to kick him out of the class, because if he became a jester in the class, they met him somewhere behind the school and said, yes, brother, you are normal, they are fools there, let’s teach you this and that, run across here , show how cool you are, ride on the roof of the train and feel how cool it is,” said Vadim Gilod.

Or another challenge to society – to have time to slip in front of the car. Didn’t make it – he died.

Creators of online groups that promote such extreme entertainment will also be subject to the new criminal law. But no law will keep track of a teenager if he is not really watched in the family.

“A teenager is deprived of even simple hugs and kisses, because he is no longer a little boy or girl, and it is somehow embarrassing for an adult to be in this contact with them. And teenagers really need this,” says Maria Kiseleva.

“Now I work with children in a children’s center and spend endless holidays, although this is not easy for me. But I love them very much so that they never think about suicide,” Elena Davydova, the mother of the deceased girl, admitted.

Many of the parents shrug their shoulders when faced with adolescents in transition. How lazy! How much aggression! How much rudeness! And they don’t want to study at all! Everything is true, but any of these behaviors has its own explanation. Teenagers are not always to blame for being “like that…”. They still cannot analyze many of their reactions and actions, they do not understand what is happening to them. And the most reliable helpers in passing this difficult age should be those whom children rashly write down as enemies number one, that is, we parents. We are talking about how to survive a time of crisis and maintain friendship with your own children with psychologist Olga Isaeva, a senior lecturer in the Department of Clinical Psychology at the Moscow Medical and Dental University.

And let them hit the cymbals!

— Olga, I don’t want to grumble about the fact that water used to be wetter, sugar sweeter, and children more obedient, that you and I weren’t like today’s teenagers, but…

— You will be surprised, but grumbling is justified. After all, not only we are changing, the time itself, the cultural environment is changing, and adolescence, or transitional age, as psychologists believe, is a cultural phenomenon. Some time ago it was not. For example, under Ivan the Terrible…

– So how? Difficult teenagers were flogged with rods, and therefore they preferred not to show character?

– Not really. The meaning of adolescence is the transition from childhood to adulthood. In a traditional society where there is a hierarchy, where life is clearly regulated, there is a ritual that takes a person from the world of childhood to the world of adults, so there are no problems with teenagers. But in the conditions of our civilization, everything is much more complicated. Try to answer the question, what does it mean to you to be an adult?

– I don’t know. Probably be able to hold back. But in general it is difficult to articulate.

– This is how millions of parents find it difficult to answer. And what to ask from children? The teenager looks at himself in the mirror, at his long arms and legs, at his almost narrow mustache, and sees “not a boy, but a husband.” But everyone else looks at the same thing, but for some reason they see a child and address accordingly: “Put on a scarf, it’s cold!” He snaps in response, because he does not understand what needs to be done so that others recognize his adulthood.

The simplest answer is that an adult is one who can do things that children cannot, namely: drink, smoke, swear and stay out late. And if you allow yourself all this, then, supposedly, everyone will understand that you have grown.

I must say right away: those parents who from childhood bring up adulthood and a sense of responsibility in their child have the least problems. But some children, of course, do not grow up from a good life – for example, when there is no father in the family and the eldest son plays his role. Teenage foolishness in such cases is usually a rare occurrence, because a child is counted on as a big one from childhood. So why does he have to prove anything to anyone?

— And in ten years, he will present his mother with a bill: you deprived me of my childhood!

– Almost every child will have to take a sip of worries. And of course, the example of an incomplete family is an example of an extreme situation. Here, as they say, life itself solves the problem of transitional age. But after all, in any family there are duties that a child is able to fulfill. Already in three or four years, you can wash your plate. And children are usually willing to help – through this they feel like adults. Parents, of course, take risks: there is more fuss, and there is a danger to the dishes, and it is much easier to do everything yourself. But this is exactly how children are discouraged from helping. When a child does something, and a parent corrects him, the result for both is joy. Therefore, it’s better not to give him an expensive plate – let him break the one that he doesn’t feel sorry for, if only from early childhood he had at least some part of his responsibility.

If the child is already fifteen, and for the first time we think about why he is inactive in everyday life and try to involve him in housework, then we should not be surprised that he “sends” us. He is not accustomed to duties and is no longer at the age when he is willingly included in the life of the family. And it’s impossible to explain to a fifteen-year-old teenager why it is now that he gets help around the house. You can tell him that he is already an adult, and in response you will hear a reproach that a month ago he was considered small and allowed to do nothing, but now for some reason he has grown dramatically.

The only thing left for parents to do here is to use a trick. For example, refer to fatigue and ask for help with the dishes. Do not blame the child for being lazy, just ask, because you really get tired after work… Most likely, the reaction will be positive.

“Put on a scarf immediately!”

– You mentioned the scarf that parents ask you to wear when it’s cold outside. How to make sure that the scarf really ends up on the neck, and not in the pocket – out of the spirit of contradiction?

— The spirit of contradiction is as natural for adolescents as it is for any person experiencing an age crisis. The principle is very simple: the stronger the action, the more powerful the reaction. But we admit that the child does not meet with hostility any of our requests, but rather the one that is expressed in a directive tone, from a position of power. A teenager will simply try to neutralize this power if he does not recognize its authority. So it turns out that you, taking care of the child, demand: “Put on a scarf immediately!” – and he answered: “Yes, you go … I’m already an adult, you will point me out here!”

Solve the problem in the same way as with dishes. Ask, explain your excitement and anxiety: “Well, please, it’s so cold there … Honestly, I will be calmer.” Your chances of being heard will immediately increase.

We sit down to do our homework…

— Another situation: we sit down to do our homework. Tomorrow is a test, the child’s head is empty, the desire to prepare is zero. Two is guaranteed. But he doesn’t care…

— The beginning is already good: we sit down to do our homework. Ask yourself the question: who needs it more, you or him? If you – then you got exactly what you were striving for, that is, you are studying instead of him, which means that the lessons are yours, and not his problem, until graduation. In psychology, this is called learned helplessness syndrome. If you sat down to do homework together from the first grade, then there is nothing to expect that the teenager will do it himself. Why? It’s you who are afraid to get an A, it’s you who want to “get him into an institute.” In addition, children cannot think and calculate in a long-term perspective to understand that a bad certificate is a real problem. But not talking to a friend in ICQ is really a disaster for them…

You may have noticed that even before school, children play role-playing games: shop, hairdresser, teacher… They want to become adults as soon as possible. Support this beginning in them! And when the child goes to the first grade, explain to him that he is already an adult and he has a job that needs to be done well. Usually children, albeit instinctively, gladly accept this new responsibility. The task of parents is simply not to spoil the matter.

— Well, what if the child has matured and cannot cope with difficult lessons? After all, it is with this that parental participation in algebra, physics, compositions begins . .. Otherwise, he will simply quit studying.

— That’s exactly what participation is, and nothing more. It is necessary to explain to the child that the deuce is his problem. Let him first try to understand what exactly his difficulties are, keeping in mind that he can always turn to you in case of difficulties. Well, you should be ready to help him deal with this particular problem so that he can work again on his own.

— And if, in response to an offer to help, I hear: “Leave me alone! Mind your own business!”

— So be it. And you go about your business: go to work, earn money for your family. You are doing your duty. Remind him, only in a very friendly tone, that he also has responsibilities, but, unlike you, he does not fulfill them. Then the question arises: why? Let him figure out what the difficulty is and come up to you with a specific question, without shifting homework onto your shoulders. As long as his bad grades are yours and not his problem, don’t expect anything to change in him.

In adolescence, the topic of studying is complicated by the fact that good grades cease to work as a self-sufficient incentive. Children are no longer afraid to be doubles. On the contrary, it is shameful to be excellent students. They are interested in walking, meeting, the school becomes a place of parties. And here parents need to make efforts to discipline the child. The starting point can be his interests. Someone likes history or geography, someone “swallows” books… Throw “fuel” into this cauldron.

— And if the child is not interested in anything? And he has only one desire – not to be pulled?

— If a teenager is not interested in anything, then the problem is in the family. This means that there is no priority of knowledge in the house, and parents work so much that they have no strength left for intellectual life. They don’t read anything themselves for a long time, except for newspapers, they don’t go anywhere … And why then should a child strain at school if all this knowledge was not useful to parents?

The value of knowledge must be cultivated in the family. Go to museums together, take photographs, travel (not necessarily far, you can also go to a neighboring city, if only together), communicate. If these interests are awakened, then it will be easier for the child to learn. Knowledge gained outside of school gives a kind of trump card: for example, in geography, he will know something that no one knows, and he will shine with it in the lesson. And it is prestigious for him, and the teacher is pleased.

— Yes, but if the child is only interested in TV and computer games? And it is useless to ban them. There are friends who also have computers, he will just go to visit them …

– Any prohibition causes only additional interest in a teenager, therefore it is more correct to give an alternative. Instead of a stupid cartoon, watch a cool movie together. Yes, you will waste your time. But we have to fight for the children.

Computer is a separate topic. Of course, you must and have every right to limit the time your child spends at the monitor. (If there is only one computer in the family, say, for example, that you need to work on it). But be aware that as a rule, it is not at all easy for children to leave the virtual world. And sometimes, in order to get a teenager out of there, the parent needs to go down there himself. Play together, preferring more peaceful game options, gradually switch to other non-computer-related joint activities. If the game has become a drug for a child, call psychologists for help! This topic – addiction to the game, or gambling addiction – is now being taken very seriously.

However, it is often convenient for the parents themselves that the child is sitting at the computer and does not touch anyone. But this state of life in the virtual world is akin to homelessness. It just looks quite socially acceptable – the child doesn’t seem to be climbing in basements, not lying under the fence, but sitting at home and doing something. But this is a dangerous calm. In the virtual world, he has ten lives, and he is a hero, but here he has problems at school, quarrels with his parents. .. Why does he need to return to reality?

Sound the alarm if you notice that a child is becoming a fanatic. Look for an alternative activity for him that would be no less exciting. Maybe wrestling classes, hiking…

– Speaking of the virtual world. Many children draw with a pen in a notebook. And sometimes these drawings are terrifying, because there are iron monsters, gargoyles and other aggressive creatures incompatible with life. How to react to it? Is it all about computer games?

– Drawings are the embodiment of the child’s inner images. This means that all this is in his head, and most likely formed by the same TV and games. Horrors do not arise in the mind for no reason. I know a case when a teenager pulled his photograph out of a frame on the wall and put in its place a drawing with such an iron monster. Perhaps this is how he sees his real portrait. Can you imagine what he has inside?.. Such episodes should be a very serious signal for parents: act, knock on the child, do not leave him to the mercy of a virtual fate with ten lives! He will lose his only one, and you will lose with him.

There is such a term – laziness

– Many children go to art or music schools, but not all of them graduate. It would seem that the person has abilities, and there was some kind of interest … But the matter was abandoned halfway, the child was tired. Is it worth it to keep going?

— Everything needs motivation. If a child, for example, draws, then there must be exhibitions and competitions in which he participates. He must understand what result he is working for, and the competitive spirit here is the best engine. Just drawing or playing the violin, without a specific goal – this interest will not last long. If there are no exhibitions of children’s drawings and music festivals in your city, find them on the Internet! Introduce the child to artists, musicians who have their own blogs (again, first find them yourself, see what kind of people), let them communicate there. For teenagers, after all, it is not so much the classes that are important, but the social circle, the hangout that develops in the process of work. If your child goes to a music school, but his friends do not, and it is in their company that he realizes himself as a person, then he is unlikely to need this school. Rather, he will have the same question: why do I need it?

– Let’s say I start a group on a social network, I suggest that he post his works and drawings of art classmates there. The result is the same – first it makes body movements, then it deflates. How to be?

— What you describe is what psychologists call teenage laziness (yes, that’s the term!), which has its own physiological causes. In connection with the rapid growth in the body, there is a shortage of energy, which means that it must be saved. True, if a genuine interest wakes up in some business, this energy will overflow. But this means that in another case it will decrease. There is another important reason – adolescents have poorly developed volitional regulation. From the point of view of the will, this is generally a failed age, it is very difficult to force yourself to do something. They have a constant feeling of apathy, loss of strength. Parents need to wait out this period, endure it, while periodically “kicking” the teenager, returning to the issue of his personal responsibility. The main thing is that he still completes school assignments himself, and you would only provide constructive assistance and create conditions for the development of his interests. Give your child the opportunity to express themselves in life.

To drink or not to drink

— There is another threat: at the age of thirteen or fourteen, many people already try alcohol.

— You cannot insure your child against this. But it is in your power not to create a stir around the topic. The principle is still the same: if adults in a family can drink a little, but there is a strict taboo for a teenager (“You are still small, you cannot!”), Then alcohol becomes a tempting fruit. And the child will definitely get drunk, and you will be the last to know about it. Therefore, the task of the parent is to develop a calm attitude towards alcohol in the child. If you are sitting at a festive table with a glass of wine and a teenager asks you to try, do not say: “This is only for adults”, do not arouse interest. Explain that the wine does not taste so good. Offer juice. If the child insists, give a sip. Wine really seems tasteless to children, and if it is not banned, it is unlikely to arouse additional interest. If you do not drink at all and there is a certain philosophy behind this, it is very important to share your thoughts with your child.

— Wouldn’t it be better to stick to protective tactics so that the child does not know anything about alcoholic beverages at all?

— This tactic is common in our Orthodox families, Orthodox schools. It seems that it is better to hide the child from the temptations of the world, and then he will grow up to be a pious person. But temptations cannot be removed from the world, and a teenager will not be ready to meet them. There are so many examples when, after leaving the walls of an Orthodox lyceum, students stand around the corner and smoke like steam locomotives. This is how children learn to be hypocrites.

It is important not so much to protect the child from temptations as to be there when he starts to get to know them. Talk to him about your concerns in a friendly way. If someone you know drinks heavily, do not hide that this is a real illness, let the teenager be clear about the causal relationship between alcohol and alcoholism.

When I worked at the drug center, some of my colleagues brought children to work and showed what drug addicts are, what withdrawal is, what it looks like and how it is treated, they let the children talk to the sick … They talked about the buzz, but they themselves were in that moment is so not high! One visit to the child was quite enough to form a lasting impression and attitude.

Authorities

— Many of your tips, it seems to me, can be put into practice, provided that parents maintain authority in the eyes of the child. But while he is in his transitional age, will he listen, are his parents an authority?

— Parents can and should be an authority for their children. But, unfortunately, this is not always possible. The fact is that in adolescence, a child makes an important discovery for him – it turns out that he has his own inner world, and this world is extremely interesting. And if parents don’t care about this (and often this is exactly what happens: we strive to dress, shoe, feed, etc., and talk, for example, heart to heart – well, if there is time), then they have extremely little chance of maintaining their authority, and the teenager has nothing to do with it. Children often do not forgive such inattention to themselves, and precisely because they acutely begin to understand that the inner is more important than the outer. They see themselves from the inside, their essence, thoughts, character traits … They want to share this. And not with anyone. Parents have one thing on their minds: “Have you done your homework? Why aren’t the boots removed? Did you take out the trash? Well done!”

To maintain parental authority, you need to maintain a trusting relationship with a teenager and live an interesting life yourself.

– A relationship of trust? At a transitional age?

— If you have not had confidential communication for thirteen to fifteen years, and one fine evening you decide to ask what the child writes in the diary, then the reaction will be sharp and rude. But you still need to make contact, and there is a win-win trick that manipulators love to use: people will open up to you if you start opening up to them. You have a life behind you, you were also at a transitional age, somehow you were weird: you tried your first cigarette, wrote on the fence or cursed obscenely… Everything was there, and one should not assume that our children are not clear who they are. Remember what you felt, what you were worried about, and share with your child. Of course, you should not tell the details of how you got drunk, but your experience of living in crisis situations is indispensable for him and much more interesting than stories from books. A child often does not see a parent as a person, because we hide him intensely, leaving on the surface only what can be called a life support machine. And when mom or dad begins to gradually open up, when it turns out that they also had youth, disappointments and loves, then the child becomes clear that his parents are normal people, you can deal with them.

For example, Bishop Anthony of Surozh began all his stories with the words: “You know, there was such a case with me…”. He never said directly what to do and what not to do. He talked about his personal experience, about his experience of God. I think we should take an example from him.

Are you interested in life?

– You say that parents should be interesting people and then there will be respect for them. What is meant?

— Often, when we become parents, we stop living our own lives. In the first years after birth, the child takes so much attention that the mother does not have the strength for any books other than children’s books, and the father does not have time to be interested in anything other than work and providing for the family. Children grow up, as do their requests, and we, adults, get used to a purely technical function – “to feed, clothe, provide . ..”. And nothing more than what we should be doing as parents. So we partly cease to be ourselves. But when a parent turns into a round-the-clock educator and loses his personality, he ceases to be interesting to the child. Especially a teenager. After all, the first question he asks in response to our claims is: “Well, what about you? You demand that I read books, but do you read them yourself? Are you interested in anything?” And this is serious.

– But how can a parent who comes home from work with a squeezed lemon, until dinner, cleaning, while checking the lessons, take time for hobbies?

– And this is a matter of priorities. Among my acquaintances there are several professorial families. You come to their house: there are many, many books that do not fit in cupboards and lie everywhere – on shelves, chairs, window sills… What order is there. In these families, there is often no lunch, almost never dinner, and in the refrigerator is what the teenage son managed to buy on the way from school. After all, in the end, the child himself begins to do what he lacks. He knows: there is no food at home, mom will come after the lecture at ten in the evening, she also needs to be fed, because she can’t cook anything for herself, and she doesn’t have the strength. Therefore, he himself will buy food, cook, help around the house, and he and his mother, can you imagine, will have time to talk in the evening.

A woman often sees her mother’s purpose in providing a life, but after that, not only does everything else disappear, often this life is not needed to such an extent. And resentment begins that the husband refused to have dinner (he ate at work), although she tried, she did not spare her strength. As soon as you decide for yourself: what is more important for you – everyday life or something more, then there will be time for personal interests.

— I think the self-examination should begin with the question: Does my own life bring me joy?

– A very useful question. If your answer is “yes”, then in general everything is fine with you. If no terrible events have happened, and you are angry and discouraged, then it’s time to change something. Often the cause of despondency is driven out, tragic fatigue. If so, it’s time to stop. We won’t earn all the money, and what we have, we won’t be able to take to the next world, and there may not be tomorrow! Remember, as Bulgakov says: a person is mortal, and what is even worse, suddenly mortal. Even if you are sure that you are trying not for yourself, but for the children, stop and think. Is the money you make worth the time you didn’t spend with it?

If it’s a matter of being irritated with life, that it “is arranged that way”, then remember that this is your life, and no one but yourself can change anything in it. Look for an outlet, remember what interests you had in your youth… And it is also important to understand that it is those parents who perceive life as a joy, or rather, will become a real authority for children. For one simple reason – you really want to grow behind such people.

Children are leaving life / News of the Society of Krasnoyarsk and the Krasnoyarsk Territory / Newslab.Ru

10/24/2012

The Investigative Committee of Russia started talking about a bad trend. According to the law enforcement agency, the number of child suicides has been steadily growing in recent years. Experts, speaking about the causes of an unhealthy trend, name the main problem – the lack of a system and responsible people. According to the law, everyone must prevent suicides – both the police, and officials from education, and parents. And that means no one.

The numbers issued by the Investigative Committee are shocking. In 2010, 798 cases of juvenile suicide were registered in Russia, in 2011 – 896. In the first half of 2012 – already 532 cases. Judging by the growth rate, we can draw an unpleasant conclusion: by the end of the year, the number of child suicides will exceed one thousand.

It follows from the statistics – children have their own way of leaving life . This is hanging. Only then comes a fall from a height, poisoning with drugs, piercing and cutting objects. Dealing with the consequences is stupid and inefficient. We need to look for reasons. According to the experts of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation, the suicides of most minors could have been prevented if at least someone had paid attention to the children.

“The analysis showed that a significant part of children who committed suicide already needed not only the help of a social pedagogue or psychotherapist, but also intervention in their lives by police agencies for the prevention of juvenile crime,” said Vladimir Markin, official representative of the Investigative Committee.

Albina Komovich, Commissioner for Children’s Rights in the region, spoke about the sad regional statistics with examples on October 11 at a session of the Legislative Assembly of the region. According to her, in the region in 2011 there were 33 cases of suicide of minors . The main age of juvenile suicides is 15-16 years. It is curious that in 80% of cases these are children from prosperous families, where there are both parents and a good income.

— Let me give you one example: a mother did not allow her child to help her with repairs. He did something wrong, and she sent him to the next room. Two hours later, he looks – he is hanging on a belt … – Komovich said at the session. – Parents get divorced, the child either lives with his mother, then lives with his father. As a result, the girl writes a note and commits suicide,” Komovich told MPs. Moreover, she named the lack of attention to children from parents as one of the main reasons for such cases.

In a comment to the online newspaper Newslab.ru, the commissioner drew attention to the need to work with parents. “The most important thing is that the child must feel that he will find protection and help from his parents” .

— Parenthood is for life. And it’s very hard. But our parents are not ready to be parents. Many are not ready. Fed, watered, dressed beautifully and that’s it. And what is in the soul of a child is trifles. Just think, the son quarreled with the girl… – says Komovich. – The parent should always be nearby, talking with the child. There must be an internal connection.

Krasnoyarsk psychologist Vadim Kozhevnikov also talks about these reasons. In his opinion, the reason for the increase in child suicides is a consequence of unfavorable trends that are observed in society. Moreover, not only in our Russian. This is an increase in the level of general depression due to the economic recession and all crisis conditions.

– All this affects a person. Including on a child who receives less warmth and care. Finally, the child simply becomes isolated from the parents. Any tension in society leads to the fact that, no matter how scary it may sound, children are the last ones. They receive less love, affection, care. Suicide is depression . And if a child dies, then this is a consequence of the depression of an adult who is next to him or who affects his condition, the psychologist is sure.

Kozhevnikov believes that the upward trend in the number of child suicides is natural. Despite the fact that it runs counter to the improvement of the well-being of society. Including financial. – Well-being is growing, while spirituality and morality are deteriorating. This leads to the fact that people begin to degenerate. Suicide is the degeneration of people.

Komovich believes that it is necessary to correct the pedagogical incompetence of parents. And he recalls the “universal education” that were still in the Soviet Union.

— There are no problems that cannot be solved. With the help of adults, you can solve everything, fix everything and find a way out of any situation. Except for death,” she sums up. It only turns out that it is adults who most often push children to a terrible step by their unintentional actions.

    Linda Gray Career

    • Dim became famous through the work of Sue Ellen Ewing, J.R’s. indulgent alcoholic spouse in a CBS dramatization of Dallas (1978–89, 1991). At first he was a regular for the first five-scene arrangement, but later in 1978 Gray turned into a regular arrangement and remained on the show until 1989 years old
    • Her character was generally welcomed by television experts. Biography Channel stated: “Who could ever overlook Dallas with vodka-drinking Sue Ellen Ewing stuffed with braces shortly before Dynasty stunning Southfork Ranch with perpetually mournful articulation as she bore the brunt of J. R. Ewing’s vicious acts? The Boulevard magazine stated, “It may be 2009 and seventeen years since the prime-time dramatization of ‘Dallas’ went off the air, but the memories of the Ewing family are still waiting.
    • Defilement and betrayal, lies, gluttony, trouble and embarrassment were all just part of another day at Southfork Ranch. The focus was on one of our all-time favorite Ewings, the person we really wanted to get through every week as she drank and napped through one challenge after another. This was obviously the tormented and (sometimes) despicable Sue Ellen Shepard Ewing, former Texan prom belle and trophy wife of rebellious womanizer J.R. Ewing, played flawlessly by entertainer Grey.”
    • Gray received two Golden Globe Awards for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series and a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series for her Dallas show. She has also received various universal awards, including the German Bambi Award, the Italian Il Gato Award, and in 1982, the Hollywood Radio and Television Society named her Woman of the Year.

    Linda Gray of Dallas

    • After Dallas, Gray starred in the 1991 parody film Oscar with Sylvester Stallone and then appeared in the British playwright Lovejoy (featuring her co-star, and she loves the enthusiasm from her last season in Dallas, Ian McShane). In addition, she has acted in several made-for-television movies, including 19 movies’91 The Artists (with Bob Newhart), Bonanza: The Return (1993), Moment of Truth: Why My Daughter (1993), and Chance Encounter (1994).
    • In 1994, she appeared on the Fox primetime drama Melrose Place, starring Hillary Michaels, mother of Amanda Woodward (Heather Locklear). She continued at Melrose Place, shutting down Models Inc. where her character Hillary ran the show organization, however the show was canceled after one season. Dim appeared in Dallas, where the television series Dallas: The Return of J.R. Returns was assembled (1996) and Dallas: The Ewing War (1998), but did not appear in films or television in later years.
    • In 2001, Gray portrayed Mrs. Robinson in a West End theater production of Charles Webb’s The Graduate. This earned her a round trip as her legs (not Anne Bancroft) were the ones in the popular scene in The Graduate where Mrs. Robinson’s legs are respected by Dustin Hoffman. She also quickly took on Broadway work when she replaced Kathleen Turner in September 2002.
    • Dim acted as coordinator of the presentation of the play “Murder in the First”, and other acting stage work includes “Terms of Endearment”, “Vagina Monologues”, “Agnes of God” and “Love Letters”.

“Dallas” sundress for children with pockets

Bright sundress fitted silhouette with a round neckline, without a sleeve and an elasticated waistband. Can create a family look with the women’s Irving sundress (sold separately).
Fabric – cooler (100% cotton).
Kulirka (kulirka) – a thin knitted fabric made of cotton fiber. Due to their thinness, cooler products are comfortable to wear at home, as well as in warm or hot weather. From the outside, the weaving of the fabric looks like a pattern of longitudinal braids. Properties: cotton-based cooler is pleasant to the touch, hypoallergenic, eco-friendly, smooth and thin, stretches easily and does not wrinkle. It absorbs moisture well and allows the skin to “breathe”. The density of the canvas is about 120-140 gr.m. May shrink slightly after washing. Easy care.

Daycare for Kids with Special Needs

Donate

Eligibility and
Weekend Adventures

At Jill’s House Weekend Adventures (JHWA), our desire is to provide an excellent camp experience for kids with intellectual disabilities, ages 6-17. In order to accomplish this goal, we need to ensure that we can safely provide the level of care needed for every camper.  

New Campers

Jill’s House has a thorough intake process to collect all the necessary information for your child. Part of this process requires our parents to visit their health care provider and our team before your child arrives for their first visit. 

Health Condition Details

In order to ensure the safest weekend possible environment for all our campers, staff, and volunteers in addition to providing peace of mind for the families of our campers (so they can truly enjoy their respite!), JHWA cannot adequately support campers with the following health and behavioral conditions. This is not an exhaustive list, each child will be thoroughly evaluated through the intake process to determine eligibility. 

 

Medical

  • Diabetes – JHWA cannot accommodate 24-hour monitoring
  • Trach or ventilator dependent campers
  • G-tube/J-tube/NG tube for liquid diet feeding or medications
  • Any form of urinary catheter
  • Any form of Ostomies for bowel elimination
  • Any type of port requiring access or care
  • Individuals requiring transfers with a Hoyer lift
  • Children with a history of tonic clonic seizures must be seizure free for one year.

    (Campers with a a seizure disorder accepted on a case by case basis, depending on seizure type, frequency, and necessary treatment.)

Behavioral

  • Physical aggression toward others while at camp. 
  • Property destruction or theft
  • Verbal misconduct toward staff members, visitors, or other individuals.
  • Sexualized behaviors, sexual language, or expression of inappropriate physical affection
  • Exposure of private body parts.
  • Threats to harm self, peers or staff
  • Attempting to injure self or creating a dangerous situation for others

Food & Allergies

JHWA can accommodate all gluten free and dairy free dietary restrictions. If families prefer to send food from home, JHWA is able to accommodate that as well.  We cannot guarantee campers with anaphylactic allergies will not experience a trigger while at camp.

For example, despite attempts to restrict our campers from bringing peanuts, we cannot guarantee that other individuals on the camp premises will not bring peanuts.

Overview of our Intake Process

Intake Application
Process Details

The intake team is made up of various Intake Mangers, who will assess your child’s eligibility for any program provided through Jill’s House.

Inquiry Form

Step 1

To begin the intake process, please fill out our inquiry form

Step 2

Following this form, an Intake Manager will schedule an initial call to gather some general information about your child. This is a great opportunity to ask any questions that you may have about our program.

Step 3

After the initial call, you will receive the first round of paperwork via email. This first round of paperwork includes: information about your child’s Individualized Education Plan (IEP), specific care needs, and health history.

Step 4

The intake team will then review this paperwork to determine eligibility. If your child is eligible, you will receive the second of paperwork via email. The second round of paperwork includes: consent forms, legal documents, and medical paperwork.

Step 5

One of our Local Program Managers will schedule a meet and greet at a public location convenient for both parties. At this meeting, the child’s individualized support plan (ISP) can be discussed, and the second round of paperwork can be handed in or emailed.

Step 6

Once your child’s ISP and paperwork are approved, your Local Program Manager will be able to assist you in scheduling your child’s first visit.

This webpage has been copied from http://www.cde.ca.gov/sp/cd/re/caqspecialneeds.asp at CDE.
As we are implementing the child care transition to CDSS,
there may be additional modifications made to these webpages.


It is the right of every child to have high-quality, safe, and nurturing child care. It is your responsibility to choose the best care for your child and help providers know that they CAN meet the special needs of your child—and that you’ll help them do it.

All children have special needs. However, some children, because of physical, emotional, or learning needs, may require extra support in the child care setting. It is very important to choose child care that meets your basic requirements first—then address your child’s unique needs with the provider.

Things to consider
  • If a child care provider has never cared for a child with special needs, he may be fearful or uncomfortable until he gets to know your child. You are the most knowledgeable person about your child’s needs, so it is important for you to share with the provider information and ideas that you have found work best.
  • Children often act differently in the child care setting than at home, so don’t be surprised if your suggestions don’t always work out.
  • Caring for a child with special needs is a partnership among the family, child care providers, and any specialists involved.
  • The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires child care programs to make “reasonable” efforts to accommodate a child with a disability. 

There are other resources that can help you. Family resource centers provide parent-to-parent support and training. Regional centers link families of children ages birth to three years who have or are at risk of developmental disabilities to early intervention programs in each county. You can call 1-800-515-BABY to get the number of your local family resource center or regional center. 

Children ages birth to three who qualify for early intervention services receive an individualized family service plan (IFSP). The IFSP identifies the special services and who will provide them.  Once your child turns three, if he is eligible for special services, such as speech therapy, they are provided by the school district through an individualized education program (IEP). These plans describe the goals for your child and the services to help meet them.

Finding child care

Some child care resource and referral agencies match families with caregivers who specialize in working with children with special needs. Call the child care provider and ask about policies, fees, schedules, and activities to determine if this setting is a good fit for your child before discussing the disability. AFTER you feel comfortable with a provider, let her know about your child’s special needs in a way that is nonthreatening and supportive. This lets the child care provider know that you are concerned with her skill and ability to help your child and you will provide her with the necessary resources, training, and support to care to care for your child’s special needs. 

If you feel that a child care program is discriminating against your child because of her disability, you can get legal advice from the Child Care Law Center at 415-394-7144.

Choosing special needs care

When choosing child care for a child with special needs:

  1. Interview caregivers as you would for any child.
  2. Ask for references and check them out.
  3. Visit without your child first. Make sure you are comfortable with the type of care provided.
  4. Then bring your child to the child care setting and observe how she reacts or adjusts to the staff, the materials, and the other children.
  5. When you are ready, start your child’s care for an hour or so, gradually increasing the time until he gets used to the provider and the provider is secure in meeting his needs.

Children with special needs require different levels of support and care. The willingness and openness of the provider to work with specialists in coordination and partnership with the family is crucial in providing high-quality child care for your child.

In your search for quality child care, the following checklists may be helpful:

Caregiver considerations
  • Has special training, skills, or experience with children with special needs.
  • Works as a team member with family and specialists.
  • Communicates regularly about the child’s development and any concerns as they arise.
  • Maintains confidentiality and with your permission answers questions regarding the child’s special needs.
  • Has a system to record medication, special feedings, or other procedures.
Environmental considerations
  • Facility is accessible and safe for the child, accommodates adaptive equipment (e.g., wheelchairs, walkers).
  • Toys and play materials are within the child’s reach.
  • There are enough adults present to meet children’s individual needs.
  • The overall group size is not too large to be overwhelming for the child.
  • The environment does not create too much or too little stimulation for the child.
Parent responsibilities
  • Provide caregiver adequate training for special procedures (e.g., nebulizer, g-tube feeding, finger-prick testing).
  • Photocopy written information about the child’s special needs for the provider.
  • Invite the child care provider to the IEP or IFSP meetings.
  • Request consultation with the child care program be written into the IEP or IFSP.
  • Plan a method of communication among the family, the child care provider, and any specialists the child sees.

How to prepare a special child for kindergarten

Parents can help themselves and their child not be afraid of going to kindergarten if they take care of everything in advance

Attending kindergarten is the first stage of the child’s socialization. In order for it to go smoothly and be as useful as possible for the child, parents and the baby need preparation. Galina Yuryevna Odinokova, candidate of pedagogical sciences, talks about how to cope with possible problems associated with being in kindergarten.

Entering a kindergarten is an extremely difficult period for both adults and the child himself. Getting into an unfamiliar environment, the baby is hard going through separation from his mother. Changes in the usual rhythm and way of life, strangers, new environment, the need to comply with the rules and requirements common to all can negatively affect his emotional state and lead to stress. Any child is acutely experiencing a period of breaking the habitual situation, and it is hard for parents to see the despair of their baby.

Special children have their own difficulties

Difficulties in adapting (from the Latin word adaptatio – adaptation) to new conditions are present in all children entering educational organizations, but in special children, getting used to new conditions may have peculiarities. They are associated both with their developmental disorders and with the inconsistency of the organization of the environment with their capabilities and needs.

The unpreparedness of a special child to attend a kindergarten, traditional views on the first stay of a child (“cry and calm down”), difficulties in interacting with other children who are also adapting – all this creates additional difficulties and can detain a special child in the zone of discomfort for a long time.

In this case, there may be a temporary loss of skills and abilities (he knew how to eat himself – now he refuses, he said a few words – now he is silent), the child begins to get sick often. As a result, parents may wonder: “Does my child need a kindergarten?”

Contact with peers helps in development

Of course, a child who has problems with health and development definitely needs communication with other children. And today, and tomorrow, and in the future, he will have to live among people. Family members should be guided by the fact that the child’s communication is not limited only to the immediate environment.

The ability to communicate does not develop overnight. A favorable period for establishing contact with peers is precisely an early age, and this period should not be missed.

In addition, peers themselves represent an extremely developing environment for a special child: they involve the child in their contacts, games and encourage the child to be active. A special child in an environment of typically developing peers, if he is comfortable in it and is drawn to it, develops better, he “pulls himself up” to other children.

The number of children with special educational needs in kindergartens is increasing every year – in 2019 there were 546,768 of them. More than 40 thousand groups of combined and compensatory orientation functioned for them (10.3% more than in 2018).

What parents should pay attention to

Recommendations for preparing a special child for kindergarten are aimed at children in their third and fourth years of life and are of a general nature. For children with different categories of impairments (with visual impairments, musculoskeletal disorders, etc.), their own specific recommendations will be added.

1. Approximately six months before the planned visit to the kindergarten, you need to choose the preschool institution itself and get to know it. Find out about the requirements for entering kindergarten and about the daily routine. Plan that in the first month of the child’s visit to kindergarten, the mother should be next to the baby.

2. It is necessary to work specifically on the child’s independence skills. It is important that your child knows how to eat and drink by himself, before eating, wash his hands, and also know how to use the potty (toilet). These are the basic requirements of the institution for the skills of a child with disabilities. The lack of such skills and abilities will complicate the work of the educator, who needs to ensure compliance with the daily routine and pay equal attention to all children, who can be 25–30 people in a group.

3. Approximately 1–2 months before visiting kindergarten, the child should be gradually transferred to the daily routine of the institution. For example, parents often complain that a child falls asleep late at night and wakes up late in the morning. Pediatricians rightly remark: “A child’s daily routine begins from the time the child woke up.” From the moment of waking up in the morning, everything is built: food, walks, morning and evening sleep. If a child falls asleep late, he should be gradually awakened earlier so that he usually gets up at 7:00 or 7:30 before visiting kindergarten.

4. It is important to take care that the child does not shun or be afraid of other children. For this, it would be good for a mother with a child to meet with other pairs of mothers and children on the street, to go to visit where there are small children. Often, mothers of special children say that they do not visit playgrounds, they are afraid of unnecessary questions from others. Uncomfortable questions can be answered briefly, for example: “Yes, we don’t walk/talk yet, but we are seen by good specialists. Soon the baby will walk / talk”, “The baby was born prematurely, so he does not walk yet.”

It is not necessary to name the diagnosis and introduce other parents to the developmental features of the child. It is better for mothers in conversations with other parents to support common “childish” topics: about food, about sleep, games and toys.

Walking on playgrounds allows you to watch children together, learn to play on a slide, ladder, swing, face the situation “This is mine”, “Let me play”, in which you need to negotiate with other children (at first, this is done by the mother instead of the child, and later – mother with the child, only after that the child will be able to cope with the conflict situation on his own).

5. It is necessary to acquaint the child with such an experience when the mother leaves, and he remains with a close adult (grandmother, father). It is important here that the person replacing the mother should put aside their affairs and take care of the child: play, read books, talk with him.

At first, mother leaves for a short time – to talk on the phone in another room, then returns. Mom always warns the child about leaving, when she returns, she says that she has returned.

Gradually the time of mother’s absence grows. Later this time can be increased. For example, say that the mother will go to the store, and the baby will stay with the grandmother. It is important that the child has and strengthens the confidence that the mother is gone, but she will definitely return.

6. It is important to interest the child and motivate him to attend kindergarten. 1-2 months before coming to the garden, the mother and the child can walk around the institution during the morning walk of the children from the garden (usually from 10 am to 12 pm). Together you can watch how the children play, while the mother calls everything: “The boy is digging sand. They are playing with the girl. The kids are running. They are having fun. The girl is crying. The teacher consoles her. Everything is fine. What a beautiful house. The children ran into the house and hid.”

Mom speaks positively about children (good, friendly), their emotions (interesting, funny, joyful), educator (kind, sympathetic). The attitude of the mother and her comments form a positive attitude towards the kindergarten in the child.

If parents take care to prepare the child for attending kindergarten, then the adaptation period will be milder both for the parents themselves and for the children.

Group “Special child” – Kindergarten №8 “Romashka” Gulkevichi

Every child is special, that’s for sure. And yet there are children who are referred to as “special” not in order to emphasize the uniqueness of their abilities, but in order to indicate the special needs that distinguish them – these are children with disabilities (HIA).

At present, there is an urgent need for understanding their problems, respect and recognition of their rights to preschool education, desire and willingness to include them in the children’s community.

The “Special Child” group is attended by 7 people, aged 3 to 8 years, who are accompanied by affectionate and caring teachers. This is an island of warmth and homeliness, kindness and comfort. The main task of the educators of this group is to create emotional well-being for children with disabilities, the children’s lifestyle is sparing, protective. The desire of teachers to make the stay of children in kindergarten interesting and relaxed, unforgettable and varied led to the decision to focus on activities in a playful way, games and fun due to the educational process with an increase in the time spent by children in the fresh air. An action plan has been drawn up for each day, which has its own name, individual work is planned for each child, since each child is in the teacher’s field of vision, the age characteristics of the child, the gender-role education of children, the diagnosis of each baby, and the type of temperament are taken into account. To achieve maximum pedagogical impact, any games, fun games are held only if there is a positive emotional attitude on the part of both the child and the adult. The teacher builds his work in such a way that there is praise, tactile contact between an adult and a child, encouragement in the form of a gift or word.

Advice for parents with disabled children.

  3. Just today I will take care of my health. I will exercise, take care of my body, avoid unhealthy habits and thoughts.
  4. Just today I will pay attention to my general development. I’ll do something useful. I will not be lazy and will make my mind work.

  7. It is today that I will live with the problems of today only. I will not seek to solve the problem of my child’s health right away.
  8. It is today that I will outline the program of my affairs that I want to carry out. This program will save me from haste and indecision, even if I cannot accurately execute it.
  9. Just today I will spend half an hour in peace and solitude, completely relaxing.

Special child: how we were looking for a kindergarten

take pity?” These and a dozen more flawed formulations were spinning in my head when it was time for the first time to think about kindergarten for my silent one.

A simple but expensive solution soon emerged. The son went to a private kindergarten, where they ground food with a blender, he did not know how to chew and choked. They fed only white food, as he turned away from others even before sniffing. They drank only water, because no drink seemed suitable to him.

There were only 4-6 children, so the caregivers, like me, learned to determine at a glance what he needed.

But it couldn’t go on like this for long. Besides, now I know about private gardens, where they know how to work methodically with special children. And with our educators, we went at random. The child had to be integrated into less refined conditions.

At that time there was no electronic queue in municipal gardens. I went to the offices of the heads of state kindergartens. Telling that I have an unusual child, I kind of apologized for it.

Now I get annoyed when I remember this behavior. Neither of them even wanted to hear about the features. They gave me a list of what the child must be able to do at the age of three in order to get a place in the garden. And they looked at my attempts to convey my list to them as an attempt to steal time from them.

  • Special children: if they are silent, you need to act
  • How not to yell at children
  • Living with autism: the story of my family
  • “Why did you give birth to him”: how to change the attitude towards special children?

Days and nights I spent my days on moms forums looking for options for a garden.

, I have allocated leggings, I was allocated for myself. It was only later that I did not understand why I had not thought of them in the first place. However, why should I know about it? This knowledge is not basic, and no one was going to tell me for sure.

They weren’t going to listen to me either. But not because the children in them also owe something to someone, but only because they get there in the direction of the Kyiv City Psychological, Medical and Pedagogical Commission. I received it. Don’t ask how. Has got, it is possible to tell in a departing train. All processes with the commission had to be started in February. I found out about its existence in May.

In September, we finally got to the speech therapy kindergarten. There are 10 children in the group. With them is a teacher, a nanny and a speech therapist. It was our first unique hit at the right time in the right place. There is a catastrophic lack of staff in kindergartens, teachers change like frames in a video clip, while the son ended up in a group with a teacher who cared.

I brought the same child who doesn’t chew, doesn’t talk, and doesn’t leave the house without a pot, because he just doesn’t know how to do it any other way, even on the street. I was secretly allowed to bring a pot.

Already on September 1 he stayed in the garden from 8 am. I took him home from the duty group at 7 pm. He was all right. He liked having children around. The adults took care of him. Dream? Yes. But I understand that this is luck.

Children in the group had different levels of language problems. Only one boy had additional hyperactivity and aggression. In order to neutralize his outbursts, the teacher and the nanny were enough. At the same time, I personally saw that no one yelled at him.

My toddler had one of the most severe language problems of the ten children. Every evening after kindergarten, we went to additional classes with a speech therapist and a correctional teacher. Then every morning. Breakfast was left for him in the garden, because we traditionally did not have time for it.

During the two months of the garden, he stopped eating everything that was edible and white at home, because he began to eat in the garden. Hunger is not an aunt. He began to chew. Herd instincts at their best. Do what others do and you will survive.

The pot was returned to me a month later. The toilet is man’s best friend.

In a separate line, just for fun, it is worth remembering the children’s parties in the speech therapy garden. You should have heard these verses! But we, parents, were not allowed to laugh in the hall, because we were all in the same boat.

Every child had to recite something. Even if he mumbled. Anyway, in the program of any holiday there was a poem performed by each pupil.

I will never forget my parents’ cheerful hysteria in the hall, when the actors began to sob one by one. Moreover, this misfortune “mowed down” only “mushrooms”. The “bunnies” and “bear cubs” worked out, bravo chewed their texts with their jaws, and the “mushrooms” then, probably, were “spoiled” by the woodman, because in the end there was not a single one left on the stage – everyone moved to their parents’ knees.

Three years have passed in the garden. The time has come for the commission, which was supposed to decide the fate of the children – to school, special school or leave in the garden.

We were warned right away: everyone who is six years old will go to school one way or another. Even if ten psychologists write a conclusion about the unpreparedness of the child for school. But in general, this is not true. I felt for myself how parents are frankly manipulated, taking advantage of the fact that they do not know the rights of their child.

I firmly decided to leave my son in the garden for another year. I felt that now, at six, only a language special school shines for him, and before seven there is a chance to shake his brain to a level that will allow him to go to a regular school. The dynamics of development gave hope for this.

We went to the senior group for the second time. But in a different garden. Following our teacher, who went to work there.

Even then we felt the common truth: it is not the institution that matters – the person is important.

Special Kindergarten

Children with disorders of the musculoskeletal system, cerebral palsy, autism and Down syndrome have been going to Zvezdochka, which is located in the fourth district of Kachkanar, for five years now. Today, Zvyozdochka has several exercise machines and specialized rooms at its disposal, where special classes are held for children. Kindergarten teachers assure that disabled children are not abandoned today and thank Evraz

The director of the kindergarten, Elena Ryabova, proudly leads us through the corridors.

— Now, at ten in the morning, not all the children have come to the kindergarten yet. We have children here with a free schedule, so parents wait for the children to wake up, and then bring them to us. Someone comes at nine in the morning, and someone at 11. We have children with disabilities. There are autistic and downy children among them. They are attended by a defectologist, a speech therapist, a psychologist, a music director and a physical education instructor who has undergone special training for classes with special children. Such classes are called “Adaptive Physical Education”. We have such a unique kindergarten in the city.

She says that children with disabilities work in two groups. Each has eight people. – Each group has one or two healthy children. Their parents expressed their desire for their children to attend an extraordinary group. GOST allows this.

— We also have a counseling center in the kindergarten, where parents of special needs children can turn if they need help with upbringing.

Deputy director Svetlana Borodulina is responsible for the kindergarten and knows everything about the needs of children.

“Our kindergarten has a sensory room and a Montessori room for the kids,” she explains. – For children with impaired musculoskeletal functions, there is a separate room. It is decorated with crafts created by educators. The figurines of jellyfish hanging from the ceiling are their work.

On the floor of the room there are green paths with a special coating with bulges that allow children to enhance the tactile sensations when walking. Closer to the center is a structure with a ramp, steps and handrails. Here, children are taught to climb the hill with their feet.

– Who can, climbs the stairs. Others can climb the ramp on this playground, sit on it, because for these children, the most important thing is tactile sensations. When walking on this hill, children develop joints.

A device similar to gymnasts’ parallel bars is also installed there.

— This piece of equipment expands and adjusts to the child’s height. We can move it anywhere. On the uneven bars there are special fasteners for hands, with the help of which they can move without falling. Since many of our children do not walk, the availability of such equipment is very important for us. There are special chairs for them.

A lot of special equipment for the children was purchased with Evraz money. One of the latest acquisitions is a special bike.

– The child’s hands are fixed on the handlebars of the bicycle, where special devices are located. So it can’t fall off during the trip. In summer, children go for a walk.

Svetlana Borodulina shows another device purchased thanks to Evraz. It looks like a colored ski walking machine.

– This is for leg and back training – only for those who can move their legs.

There is a music simulator in the kindergarten, specially assembled by order of the preschool institution. It was also purchased with Evraz funds. A simulator with a harp, a turntable, a drum and much more – musical instruments were selected with the expectation that children learn not only music, but also develop hand motor skills. According to teachers, classes on these instruments are very useful for children with motor dysfunctions.

Most of the money was spent on equipping the sensory room.

– This is our sand therapy, – clarifies Svetlana Borodulina. – Sand is scattered on the table, the backlight makes it possible to create beautiful drawings. A special atmosphere is created here so that the child feels like being in nature and relaxes: the sounds of nature sound, birds sing, artificial fish swim in flasks with water. Sometimes we turn off the lights in this room, turn on the light bulbs with lighting effects. All this is good for children.

Small blue light bulbs on the wall create the effect of a starry sky. With the help of special lighting, children can feel the special rain.

– And here we have a light panel. It displays four geometric shapes, they glow in different colors. The figures consist of small light bulbs that can be touched, feeling how the figure stands out on a flat canvas. We can give the children a task – to find a triangle. They define it by color and shape.

Everything in the sensory room is aimed at normalizing the child’s emotional state. If he is worried about something, here he is helped to relax.

— Five years ago, we received a child who practically did not move. He went to the cerebral palsy group. This year he transferred to a group of more mobile guys. Doctors respond only in a positive way – they thank us for helping them treat children.

Many pupils do not lag behind their peers in development. There are cases in history when special children became geniuses.

On the second floor there is a gym with treadmills and exercise equipment. The training is led by Yulia Poskrebysheva, who has undergone special training in Yekaterinburg.

“Here we have the Stepper, which is mainly aimed at working the muscles of the legs,” she points out. – Next to him is the Twister, he is needed to strengthen the back. There is a rowing machine, necessary for the muscles of the back and arms. It is regulated by gravity, there are 12 load modes. On treadmills, you can walk, you can run. Some of our children just stand next to the simulator and step on it slowly with one foot. And the last simulator “Running on the Waves”, we use it for cardio training and imitation of skiing movements.

All simulators were also purchased at the expense of Evraz’s charitable funds.

Montessori room furnished with wooden items. Three walls are occupied by hanging boards with training stands. On one of them there are doors closed with different types of valves, which are used everywhere in our everyday life. Children learn to open them on their own. On another stand, there is a shelf with holes of various shapes, where children need to put objects of the corresponding shape. There are several stands and all of them are aimed at developing logic and motor skills in children.

Now children with autism are coming to the kindergarten. They also require special equipment. To get it, the kindergarten traditionally took part in the competition of social projects “Evraz: the city of friends – the city of ideas!”.

“We need special weighted blankets, blankets and vests,” says Elena Ryabova. – The extra weight adds warmth and gentle pressure to the body that mimics a hug. According to doctors’ research, such products can improve sleep, children’s mood, reduce anxiety, anxiety, and help in the treatment of sensory disorders.

Teaching at school: how to prepare a blind child for the first grade / “Un Certain Regard”

Listen to the publication

Tiflocommentary: color photograph. Wooden school desks stand in a row.

Entering the first grade is an exciting process for both blind children and their parents. Is the child mentally ready for school? What skills should he have by the time he enters the first grade? What do you need to buy and how to organize a workplace for a future first grader? We answer these and other questions together with the parents of blind schoolchildren and the tiflopedagogue, head teacher of the primary classes of the boarding school No. K. K. Grota Anna Nikolaevna Levada.

When it’s time to go to first grade

The age at which a blind child is recommended to go to first grade is no different from the age recommended for a child without visual impairment: he can start school at the period from six and a half to eight and a half years .

“In practice, blind children go to the first grade at the age of seven or eight. It is important that the child be physically ready for school: be active, move well, not be afraid to move in space, navigate in the classroom, in the school building, so that he can run, jump, so that he has an active life position, so that he has everything interesting, it’s not scary that he was not accustomed to sit in one place, ”said Anna Nikolaevna Levada.

Description: color photograph. A dark-haired boy of about seven, wearing blue-rimmed glasses and a gray jacket, is standing in a room with white walls. He stretches out his hand in front of him, clenching two colored felt-tip pens in his fist.

Olga, the mother of the blind boy Roma, said that the specialists of the central psychological, medical and pedagogical commission, which determine what type of institution a child with a disability can study in, did not recommend her to send her son to school at the age of seven.

“He was psychologically unprepared for this, but at the age of eight he was already given a referral to the first grade,” she said.

Olga drew attention to the fact that a blind child must be physically ready to endure not only the stress at school, but also the journey to school.

“In addition to vision, Roma has other health problems, the hour-long journey from home to kindergarten was stressful for him, as a result of which he began to have epileptic seizures. It is best to contact specialists who will help determine his physical readiness for such loads, ”she added.

Olga recommends that parents accustom their child to the daily routine, which will begin in the first grade: wake up early and go to bed earlier.

Kindergarten or home?

“It cannot be said that children who were at home are less prepared for the first grade than children who went to a specialized kindergarten. The degree of preparation of a blind child for school depends on how they were engaged with him, ”said Anna Nikolaevna Levada.

If the child was at home, but the parents worked with him, read books to him, led an active social life, then he will go to school without problems. According to the teacher, there are many rehabilitation centers where children with visual impairments can study with specialists and get ready for school.

Visually impaired Yulia has two blind children: her eldest son Vsevolod is graduating from a specialized school for blind children, and the younger Arseniy is in first grade.

“I myself am visually impaired and for me the environment of a specialized school is familiar and understandable. The youngest child went to the kindergarten at the school for four years, and then entered the first grade. There were no problems. Arseniy studied in kindergarten with teachers, and at home I taught him myself, taught him to touch everything, feel, explore space and not be afraid of anything, ”said Yulia.

Nikolai’s daughter, a blind first-grader Daria, went to a kindergarten for visually impaired children before entering a specialized school, but, according to him, she was not given the necessary classes there.

“My wife had to look for information on the forums for mothers of blind children and on various websites about what classes can be done with blind children. We were in an information vacuum – there is very little information about this on the Internet, there are no clear recommendations from tiflopedagogues, there are no collections of tiflo drugs that are really necessary for preschool children with visual impairment, ”said Nikolai.

Writing and reading

“In our team, we believe that it is not necessary for a blind child to be able to read and write in Braille by the first grade. Sometimes it’s even better for him not to be able to do this, because some teachers have their own approach to teaching writing and reading skills in Braille, and it’s better for them to teach a child from the very beginning than to retrain him, ”said Anna Nikolaevna Levada.

According to the teacher, often parents in the pursuit of the intellectual development of a preschooler forget about elementary things: for example, that he needs to be able to go to the toilet on his own, eat, clean up the dishes, dress and undress, prepare for the lesson, put on place of the toy.

Olga, while preparing Roma for school, made him reading aids with different geometric shapes: the boy had to run his finger along the line with lined up geometric shapes and tactilely identify them. In order to instill in the child a love of reading, she made books with tactile pictures for him.

“Roma, like many blind children, did not develop the ability to touch objects. And we were afraid that he would not be able to learn to read Braille, but at school they coped with this, Braille easily entered his life, ”added Olga.

She believes that a blind child can already be introduced to the six-dots, the cage, and shown to him a device and a lead for writing in Braille already at preschool age.

“In kindergarten, we were told that a child would learn to read and write in Braille in the first grade. If I were preparing my son for school again, I would start introducing him to Braille from a very early age. Sighted babies look at pictures and letters in books and letters naturally enter their lives, and just as naturally Braille letters can enter the life of a blind child. A blind kid should understand that there are books on the pages of which you can run your finger and read the letters. This is my opinion not as a specialist, but as a parent,” Olga said.

According to Yulia, when her son Arseniy started first grade, he could not read and write in Braille. “Of course, we let him touch the embossed letters, thanks to sound tablets he knew what they were called, but he only learned to read and write at school,” she said.

Required skills

Typhlocommentary: color photograph. A boy in a gray sweater sits at a white table, assembles a designer from small black parts.

Anna Nikolaevna notes that it is important for a blind child to have self-care skills by the first grade. In practice, according to her, children come to school who do not know how to dress and eat on their own. Teachers teach them this, but such work requires them to spend time and effort, which is more rational to use for learning.

“It is important to sculpt with a child, to collect building blocks, because it develops his fine motor skills and is a preparation for school. It is necessary to teach him to navigate in his own body, in large and small spaces, for example, on the table,” Anna Nikolaevna said.

According to the teacher, it is good to introduce a blind preschooler to books printed in Braille and tactile pictures: open and close them, find the desired page using a bookmark.

Talking about the preparation for school of his blind daughter Darya, Nikolai focuses on the importance of her social adaptation and the ability to navigate independently in space. On walks, he tried to unite children in games without visual impairment around Daria, so that they would learn to interact and communicate with each other.

“We travel a lot and try to give our blind child information about what surrounds her, so she has learned to navigate well in space and has no problems moving around the school,” Nikolai said.

The process of adaptation to school

The process of adaptation of blind children to school, according to Anna Nikolaevna, takes place individually.

“Both among sighted and blind children, there are those who adapt to school more easily, and there are those who find it more difficult to do so. The fact that the child remains in the boarding school does not particularly affect the adaptation process, but, probably, those children whom their parents take home are more positively disposed towards school, understand what the child is going through at school, and can discuss it with him. Of course, without an important reason, parents try not to leave first-graders in a boarding school, and we support them in this endeavor,” she said.

Workplace

Like any schoolchild, a blind first grader, according to Anna Nikolaevna, it is necessary to organize a comfortable workplace at home. It’s good if it looks like a child’s workplace at school.

“We have a school desk with sides so that the objects placed on it do not fall to the floor. Parents can ask the teacher how the textbook, instrument, stylus are located on the classroom desk of their child, and keep the same arrangement of objects on his desktop at home, ”said the teacher.

Anna Nikolaevna also advises parents to set up a small shelving or shelf next to the workplace in order to place books printed in Braille vertically, and thereby maintain the quality of the embossed type.

Choosing a desktop for Roma, Olga also took into account her convenience.

“I understood that I would help my son do his homework by sitting next to him, so I chose a table that would be comfortable for me to sit too. The convenience of parents is also important. We also marked books and notebooks with embossed stickers so that Roma could distinguish them tactilely,” she said.

And when organizing his daughter’s workplace, Nikolay took into account the factor of good lighting. “Dasha has a very small margin of vision, so having good lighting is important to her,” he said.

Advice for parents

“For parents of blind children who are about to enter first grade, I would advise you to try to enjoy the last weeks before school. In the last days of preschool life, you should try to get a lot of positive emotions, which you can then rely on. Everything that a child could master, he has already mastered, there is no point in learning something else in an accelerated mode. You can take your child to a specialized store and together choose notebooks for school, a Braille writing device, beautiful tactile stickers. Let him have only good impressions from the process of preparing for school and no stress, ”said Olga.

“The main thing is to choose a good school and positively set the child up for the learning process. Of course, it would be good if preparatory classes were organized at the school and teachers would study with the future first-grader, to whom he would later enroll for training. They could give the child those skills that will be useful to him in the first grade, ”Nikolai added.

A Yulia, Arseniy’s mother, believes that the main task of the parents of a blind preschooler is to teach him to do everything on his own: “A blind child should be able to do everything on his own, you need to give him tasks, tell him how to complete them, but not do them for him. Many mothers of blind children think that they are unhealthy, so everything must be done for them, but this is wrong.

Setting the bar higher with robust youth programs founded on FUN

The sounds of kids laughing and playing are the sounds of kids learning at Kids ‘R’ Kids.

Each child will learn more and grow more by making new friends and absorbing new concepts every day.

Defining their greatness

We happen to believe that kids are pretty great to begin with

Our before and after school programs, holiday breaks and summer camps are designed to help kids dig a little deeper and find those ambitions, traits and talents that will help them define their personal greatness.

From fun character-building and STEAM-based activities to social interactions with real staying power, our G.Y.M curriculum® is ideal for “Growing Young Minds” – providing school agers with the tools necessary to make their dreams a reality.

Shared experiences lead to lasting friendships

They go together like peanut butter and jelly

Social development is an important part of the role we play in each child’s life. Whether before and after school or during one of our camps, our programs give kids a chance to interact in fun, stress-free and collaborative environments. Memory making occurs daily as kids share experiences, and laughter is sure to erupt during action-packed activities.

Digging a little deeper to find those ambitions, traits and talents

Kids try new things as they gain confidence

Forming friendships and tackling challenges together are only part of the equation to becoming more confident. Opportunity and encouragement play major roles, too. That’s why our engaged teachers inspire kids to explore unchartered territories like sports, art, drama, science, technology, cooking and more.

Finding a passion and unearthing an unknown talent go a long way in building a kid’s sense of self-worth – assuring them they are truly enough, and their potential greatness knows no bounds!

Where curiosity launches innovation everyday

Curiosity launches innovation!

More robust than most, our innovative before and after school programs are thoughtfully engineered for K – 5th grade students! We provide a wide variety of activity clubs to fit their interests and homework clubs to ensure their scholastic success, while providing dedicated homework-free family time at the end of the day.

Our programs serve as an impactful segue between the demands of school and the comforts of home, and our extended hours alleviate some of your stress, too! It’s about more than snacks and blowing off steam on the playground, we’re expanding their minds to new possibilities and encouraging them to act on new-found passions.

Regular use of imagination is not only encouraged… it’s celebrated

ENHANCING A CHILD’S UNIQUE GREATNESS

Every hour of every day we have each child’s best interest at heart, as they form lasting friendships, explore new experiences and discover hidden talents. Our mission is to help school agers enhance their unique greatness beyond the school year program.

We also offer field trips, holiday breaks and summer camps built on a foundation of FUN and self-discovery. The most important lesson a child will learn is THE SKY IS THE LIMIT!

The Salvation Army Supplements and Supports Kids’ Educational Opportunities Through:

Homework Assistance and Counseling

The Salvation Army’s high-quality after-school programs serve children and youth of all ages. We provide one-on-one assistance with homework and school assignments, as well as the teaching and advancement of literacy and study skills.

Many of our facilities also include computer labs to help children with their homework. The Cedar Rapids Salvation Army recently opened a new computer lab, complete with ten computers, at its C Avenue headquarters. The lab provides academic support to kids who otherwise have no access to computers.

Sports, Clubs, and Extracurricular Activities

Healthy minds and healthy bodies are both crucial elements of youth development. Our no-fee and low-cost after-school programs offer children from low-income neighborhoods a chance to play sports, learn athletic skills, and cultivate healthy, safe relationships with friends through better social skills.

At the Seattle White Center facility, we organize youth sports leagues for basketball and futsal. Futsal is a simple soccer game, played on the gym floor with a low-bounce ball and smaller goals. Besides having a blast, the kids learn essential teamwork skills that will follow them for the rest of their lives.

Dance, Art, and Music Programs

Our youth community programs enable children to experience music and art education in positive no-cost or low-cost environments. Our wide array of classes focuses on everything from choir, band, and dancing to drawing, writing, and acting.

The Gresham Corps Youth Center in Oregon recognized the need for music programs after many schools in the area could no longer afford them, so it began an after-school music program. From choirs to instrument training, activities and lessons instill an early love for and appreciation of the fine arts.

Parental Involvement Coaching

Each Salvation Army community center is dedicated to equipping parents with the skills needed to support and sustain their children’s educational needs.

One very special example is the “Fatherhood in Action” program at The Salvation Army Metropolitan Division in Chicago. There they help men learn successful co-parenting skills and provide job training and placement assistance to help them be better dads to their kids.

 Serving All Without Discrimination

In providing its after-school and summer camp programs and services to families, The Salvation Army is committed to accommodating all those in need without unlawful discrimination or harassment based on age, race, color, religion, sex, national origin, marital status, disability, citizenship, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, or any other characteristic in accordance with our capacity to help.

Other Ways We Meet Needs

Before & After School Distance Learning Lab

Kids Klub’s School-Age Program is more than just a place for your child to hang out while waiting to be taken to school—or picked up after a long day at school. What sets us apart is: our dynamic, well-rounded programming; our loving staff that gets to know each child for who they are; and a top-notch homework room where your child will actually learn, complete their work correctly, and acquire valuable study skills.

Our School-Age Program looks to strengthen your child’s zest for learning and living, while providing the comfort and safety of a home away from home. By providing structure and routine, combined with the excitement of fun activities and engaging people, we actively facilitate your child’s academic, physical, social and emotional growth.

Whether your child is “buying” a prize with stars that he/she earned during Homework Time; constructing a model of his/her dream home in Architecture Class during Hobby Hour; collaborating with other children by creating a skit for the Holiday Show; or singing with his/her favorite bus driver on the way to or from school…your child will create special memories and bonds each and every day at Kids Klub.

    This is by far the best daycare center that I have had the pleasure of being a part of my kids love to go to daycare. I would recommend this to anyone looking for an awesome daycare with an amazing staff. Ms. Kelly and Ms. Krystle are always so friendly, interactive and helpful. We have been here 2 years now and have never had an issue.

    My child has attended kids r kids since she was 6 wks old and I love the center. The teachers are trained and professional. We have been at the center for 4 years strong!

    We didn’t even make it one month here. Teachers were so dis-engaged from the children. No love or affection to be seen. Facility is top notch, but the lack of love was untolerable for us. Very unprofessional tactics used in the class. Actually used my child’s “lovey” as a threat/bribe at naptime on 3 different occasions. Said they would “throw it away” if my child didn’t stay on their mat. Very unprofessional and immature if you ask me. Very sad for the children still in their care. We had issue after issue and weren’t happy from the start and they still kept our $155 tuition that was paid in advance. Speaks volumes about their character and how they run their business. Wouldn’t recommend to anyone.

    I searched everywhere for a place that made me feel comfortable leaving my children for the first time. After looking at a few centers in the area, i was very uneasy. Then I foung Kids R Kids. It was absloutely the nicest center I looked at. The front desk staff and teachers are so friendly and observant. And the best part is they actually learn.

    The best decision I ever made!

    I have two children enrolled at Kids R Kids. They have been there now for 5 months. I am very satisfied with the care and attention my children get from the teachers and staff. The center is now under new ownership, and I am very pleased with the cleanliness and professionalism that the center has to offer to my family. I am amazed at the size of this center. There are over 200 students enrolled here and are very efficiently staffed with Teachers and administration. I wouldn’t even think about taking my children any where else.

    By saving this step, you will create a draft review. Fill in the 3rd step with a detailed description of your stay at the hotel, confirm adding a review and it will be able to influence the rating of the hotel.

    Your feedback is very important to everyone

    Detailed feedback on our project helps millions of people get a quality vacation that meets their expectations.

    By leaving your opinion, you help not only with the choice of the right hotel, but also encourage hoteliers to improve the level of service, making the entire tourism industry better and more transparent.

    It is your review that can be decisive when choosing a hotel for specific people.

    How to write a good review

    A rating review is a user review that affects the rating of a hotel. Below are simple tips on how to make your review rank.

    Write for details

    Write about the main criteria that affect the choice of a hotel by travelers: food, accommodation, service, territory.

    Justify estimates

    Reviews such as: “Everything was great”, “The hotel is terrible, I put deuces” are considered unreasonable and can be removed or transferred as thanks or complaints.

    Make text readable

    Try to break the review into logical parts, so it is easier for travelers to find the details of interest. We also recommend avoiding large continuous volumes of text – break the text, for convenience, into paragraphs.

    Add photo

    Add only those photos where the hotel you are reviewing is visible. Photos will give your review increased relevance and trust from other travelers. The allowable size of the photo is 3000 px in width and 3000 px in height. Accepted format: JPG, JPEG. The maximum photo size is 12 MB. You can add up to 150 photos.

    Participate in the tophotels rating and earn your rating

    Not only hotels, but also users have ratings on TopHotels.

    The more useful reviews and comments a registered tourist has, the higher his rating and readers’ trust. TopHotels also encourages active users with various awards that help to highlight opinion leaders and draw attention to their publications.

    You can become one of them and help other users in choosing a hotel – just start sharing your impressions of the places you have visited.

    Continue adding a review of the hotel

    Adding photo materials is optional,
    but significantly increases the interest and credibility of the review

    YOU CAN UPLOAD UP TO 200 PHOTOS OF THE HOTEL TO YOUR REVIEW

If you have a classroom full of hyper-energetic and mischievous kids, getting them to focus and pay attention is a difficult task. However, introducing them to some fun games may be a creative way to involve them in the lessons and activities.

        If you are looking for some games that children will enjoy playing in the classroom while also gaining knowledge, find below our curated list of classroom games that you can use. In addition, some of these games specifically focus on improving their language, art, and memory skills.

        Fun Classroom Activities For Kids

        Education is a serious business, but kids just want to have fun. So here are some fun ways to educate the children, seriously!

        1. Buzz

        There’s no buzz word here. Only a buzz number or letter.

        Image: Shutterstock

        Buzz is an excellent game for younger kids who need to recite long lists such as a series of numbers, letters of the alphabet, and days of the month.

        Number of players: Ten or more

        You will need: A little preparation

        How to play:

        1. Pick a series that you want the kids to list out – numbers from one to 100, prime numbers, or any other series of words or numbers they have access to.
        2. Decide what the buzz word or number is going to be. For instance, you can decide that every fourth number or letter is going to be the buzz word. You could also choose words starting with a specific letter or numbers divisible by a particular number.
        3. The word ‘buzz’ will replace the figures or letters.
        4. Get the kids to start reading the items on the list or the series in order, while replacing the chosen letter number with buzz.

        For example: 1, 2, 3, buzz, 5, 6, 7, buzz, 9,10,11, buzz…

        Number of players: Eight or more

        How to play:

        1.  Write the statement “I’m going on a trip and bringing __________” on the board.

        You will need: Flashcards

        How to play:

        1. Pick up three to five cards each and show it to the class, for a few seconds.

        3. Take the image away and ask them questions such as – ‘Was there anything red in the picture?’ or ‘Where was the man with the beard standing in the room’ depending on the image and the details.

        Note that the idea is to help children jog their memory to recall something and not pose difficult questions. So pick questions about a few evident details that most kids notice, along with a couple that only a few observant ones do.

        Art Games For Classroom

        19. All about me hats

        With this game, everyone can be a mad hatter. The game encourages creativity using mundane things, or even things considered useless.

        Number of players: Five or more

        You will need: Hats of different shapes and sizes, stickers, decorative paper and pins, old scraps of fabric

        How to play:

        1. Get as many hats as there are students in the classroom.
        2. Ask the students to pick a hat.
        3. Set a timer for 30 minutes and ask them to decorate the hats in a way that best suits them.

        They could also spell their names on the hats to wear them to a class party.

        20. Art bingo

        Bingo is played for money. But art bingo is played for fun.

        Number of players:

        You will need: Letter sized paper, pens or pencils

        How to play:

        1. Give each student a letter-sized sheet of paper. Get them to fold it in half, four times. When they unfold it, they will have 16 blocks.
        2. They can draw lines along the folds or creases to separate the blocks.
        3. Create a word bank of 40 words with the help of your students. Number them and write them on the board.
        4. Ask the students to pick any 16 words from the board and write it at the bottom of each block. They can illustrate the object in the remaining space in the block.

        Write numbers one to 40 on slips of paper and put it in a bag. Pick the numbers randomly to play bingo. Students have to mark the corresponding words, and one who marks all the words first wins.

        21. The combination man drawing game

        This is an engaging art activity that you can try at beginner level or even advanced art classes. The game works well with kids who can draw human shapes and combine two shapes to form a new one.

        Number of players: Six or more

        You will need: Papers, color pens or pencils

        How to play: Six to eight

        1. Each person gets a sheet of paper and pencil.
        2. The students begin by drawing the head and the neck or a man, an animal, a robot, or even an alien. Fold the paper backward at the neck, such that only the bottom of the neck is visible.
        3. Pass the paper to the next person, who will draw the torso of any person or creature. They will fold it again at the end of the waistline, and pass it on.
        4. The last person will draw the legs and the remaining body to complete the combination man.

        In the end, unfold the paper to see the resultant picture – we guarantee there will be laughter!

        1. Make a Personalized Backpack

        This is a great way to get your child excited about going back to school. Help them pick out a new backpack, and then let them decorate it however they want. They can use fabric paint, markers, stickers, and anything else they can think of.

        2. Create a “First Day of School” Crown

        This is a fun and easy way to commemorate the first day of school. All you need is some construction paper, scissors, and glue. Just help your child cut out the crown shape and then decorate it however they want. They can add their name, the date, or anything else they want.

        3. Paint a Picture of Their Classroom

        This is a great way to help your child feel prepared for the first day of school. Go on a walk to their school and then have them paint a picture of it when you get home. It will help them feel like they know the place before they even step foot in it.

        4. Make a “Back to School” Countdown Chain

        A countdown chain is a fun way to help your child feel excited about the return to school. Just cut out strips of paper and write down something different that they can look forward to for each day (i.e., “1 more day until I get to see my friends again!”).

        5. Have a “Back to School” Themed Breakfast

        Start the first day of school off right with a special breakfast. You can make pancakes in the shape of pencils or cut fruit into the shape of apples. Get creative and have fun with it!

        6. Back to School Photo Shoot

        This is a great way to document your child’s growth from year to year. Dress them up in their first-day-of-school outfit and take some pictures. Then, do the same thing next year and compare the two sets of photos. It’s sure to be a cherished memory.

        Back to School Activities for Elementary Schoolers

        Here are some activities that are perfect for elementary school kids who are just starting to get used to the idea of going back to school:

        1. Have a Back-To-School Picnic

        What could be more fun than having a picnic in the park? Pack some lunch and snacks, and head outdoors for an afternoon of family fun. This is a great way to enjoy the last few days of summer weather, and it’s also a great way to get into the back-to-school spirit.

        2. Make a Back-To-School Memory Book

        One of the best ways to commemorate the back-to-school season is to create a memory book. This can be as simple or as elaborate as you want it to be. You can include photos, drawings, and essays about your favorite memories from the past school year.

        3. Start a New Tradition

        Why not start a new tradition for the back-to-school season? This could be something as simple as reading a book together every night before bed, or it could be something more elaborate like setting up a homework station in your living room. The possibilities are endless!

        4. Go on Scavenger Hunt

        This is a great way to get the kids excited about school. Head outdoors for an afternoon of fun searching for items that represent the back-to-school season. Some ideas include leaves, acorns, apples, pencils, and textbooks.

        5. Make a School Supplies List

        One of the best ways to get ready for school is to make a list of the supplies you will need. This way, you can make sure you have everything you need, and you won’t forget anything important. Not to mention, it’s also a lot of fun to go shopping for school supplies!

        6. Make a Time Capsule

        A time capsule is a great way to preserve memories from the school year. Have your child collect special items throughout the year, such as photos, drawings, tickets stubs, and newspaper clippings. Then, have them put everything in a container and seal it up. This can be a fun project to do near the end of the school year, and then you can open it up together in future years.

        7. Setting Up a Goal Board

        A goal board is a great way to keep track of your child’s goals for the school year. Have them write down their goals and then hang the board in a prominent place where they can see it every day. This will help remind them of what they are working towards and will help keep them motivated throughout the year.

        Back to School Activities for Middle Schoolers

        Here are some activities that are perfect for middle schoolers who are getting ready to head back to school:

        1. Create a Study Schedule

        Help your middle schooler get into a good study habit by creating a study schedule for them. This will help them stay on track and ensure they are getting all their work done.

        2. Write a Letter to Your Teacher

        Start the school year off on the right foot by writing a letter to your teacher. In the letter, explain what you hope to accomplish this year and thank your teacher for all they have done for you in the past. This is a great way to show your appreciation and set the stage for a productive year.

        3. Design a New School Year Calendar

        Why not get creative and design your own school year calendar? This can be as simple or as elaborate as you want it to be. You can include photos, drawings, and quotes about the coming back-to-school season. It will be a great way to keep track of all the important dates and events.

        4. Get Online Learning Materials Ready

        If your child is starting school this year, it’s essential to get online learning materials ready ahead of time. This way, you will have everything you need, and you won’t have to worry about last-minute preparations. There are also different types of online learning games available on SplashLearn, which can keep kids entertained and engaged while they are learning.

        5. An Autobiography Project

        This is a great way to get your child thinking about their school year. Have them write an autobiography, starting with the first day of school and ending with the last day. This is a great project for older kids who can reflect on their year in school.

        6. Make a Homework Station

        One of the best ways to make sure homework gets done is to create a designated homework station. This could be as simple as a desk in your child’s bedroom, or it could be something more elaborate like a special area in the living room. Ensure the station is stocked with all the supplies your child needs, and make sure it’s a quiet and comfortable place to work.

        7. Have a Reading Marathon

        Reading is a great way to get in the school spirit! Not only does it help improve your child’s literacy skills, but it can also be fun. Whether you choose to read fiction or non-fiction books, set a goal for how many books your child can read in a day or week.

        8. Start a Journal

        A journal is a great way to document your child’s thoughts and experiences during the school year. Encourage your child to write in their journal every day, or at least once a week. This will be an excellent way for them to reflect on their year and look back on all the memories they made.

        Let’s Go Back to School!

        Back to school is a time for new beginnings. It’s the perfect time of year to try out something you’ve never done before or do more of what you enjoy doing. Whether it be painting, reading books, or making your own calendar–there are so many different ways kids can get creative and have fun with these back-to-school activities. We hope this list gives you some good ideas to get started!

        Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

        What should I do if my child has a hard time adjusting to school?

        If your child is struggling to adjust to school, it’s important to talk to their teacher and find out what might be causing the problem. There may be something going on at school that is making them feel uncomfortable or stressed out. You can also try working with a therapist to help your child cope with any anxiety or adjustment issues.

        What are the best ways to keep my child motivated throughout the school year?

        One way to keep your child motivated is to set goals for them and help them track their progress. You can also create a positive environment at home where your child feels supported and encouraged. Finally, make sure they have plenty of time to relax and enjoy themselves outside of school. This will help them recharge and stay motivated throughout the year.

        20 Back-to-School Activities for Kids of All Ages

        Can you believe it? It’s already time to go back to school! Another thing it might be hard to believe after the year we’ve had is that kids are going back to in-person teaching. This means that things are slowly going back to normal! However, kids need more time to adjust and feel comfortable in this new environment after spending most of the time home this past year. This is why preparing awesome back-to-school activities can be the perfect beginning of the new school year!

        In this article, we’ll share some fun back-to-school activities for kids of all ages, so regardless of what grade you teach, you can find the ones that work best for your students. Now, let’s get started!

        Back-to-School Activities for Preschoolers

        Preschoolers’ social development was probably the most affected during the pandemic. The reason for this is because they never established close relationships with other kids. Therefore, it’s not surprising that most of the activities are focused on children getting to know each other and interacting in a playful way. 

        Passing the Ball

        Passing the ball is a powerful team-building activity that even adults use when working in groups. However, due to its simplicity, we believe it would be the perfect ice-breaker activity for preschoolers on their first day of school.

        All you need is a soft ball that kids can easily throw from one to another. The challenge is that they need to say the name of the classmate to which they’re throwing the ball. For instance, “I’m throwing the ball to Lily!”

        This way they can all remember each other’s names from the very beginning, the purpose being to feel more comfortable and safe in each other’s presence. 

        All About Me Caterpillar

        Another fun back-to-school activity for preschoolers is making them say something about themselves in a fun way. Each child receives a caterpillar made from four or five green paper circles glued one after another. In the first circle, glue a small photo of the student, while in the following circles white their name, their favorite color, their favorite food, and what they want to play the most. 

        Once you collect caterpillars from all students, create a big board where you’ll pin them. Then, hang the board on a wall, so all the students can see it all the time. 

        Alphabet Activities 

        Preschoolers still haven’t learned how to read, but they’re familiar with the letters of the alphabet. And, even if they’re not, playing fun activities and games based on the alphabet is the perfect way for them to learn. Plus, alphabet games and activities are the perfect back-to-school activity as it’s not too challenging nor intimidating.

        Memory matching games are always welcomed, regardless of the subject. That’s one of the reasons why we love them – they are very flexible and easily adjustable to different circumstances. However, as a back-to-school activity for preschoolers, we love them because they can introduce a friendly competition among kids, improve their memory, and familiarize them with school items. 

        To play, make matching cards – one card with a picture of a school item, such as a ruler, and another with the name of that item. Make as many as you want. Then, mix the cards and arrange them on the desk, face down. Ask kids to pick two cards – if the cards match, they receive one point, if the cards don’t match, they lose their turn, and another student guesses. The winner is the student with the most points. 

        Drawing Activities

        We can’t really finish this list without suggesting some form of art crafts or art activities. After all, they’re perfect for helping children feel more comfortable, expressive, and open with other students. As a back-to-school activity, you can ask preschoolers to draw and paint their name, their family, their pet, favorite school item, and so many other things. After all, drawing is an activity that never fails. 

        Back-to-School Activities for Elementary School Students

        Elementary school students are also very young to begin with curriculum-based activities from day one. Keep a chill and playful atmosphere with the following back-to-school activities for elementary school students. 

        Autograph Hunt!

        Hunting for an autograph not only sounds cool, but it will help students feel appreciated and socially more close to their classmates. The activity consists of children drawing a table with a couple of boxes in which they write their favorite activities, interests, or exciting things they’ve done in the past. Then, they show each other the table. If the other student has done the activity, they leave an autograph inside the box. This way, kids will know the classmates they have most in common with, so it’ll be easier to socialize with them later on. 

        Do You Know Your Neighbour? 

        Another activity for kids to get to know each other is called “Do you know your neighbor?” To play, you first need to randomize children’s seating arrangement. Then, ask them to get to know the classmate sitting next to them by engaging in a conversation for 10 minutes. Then, ask them to present their new friend in front of the whole class with the information they now know about that student.  

        Writing “I am..” Poem

        Ask kids to write a short poem or text beginning the sentences with “I am… ” Through this poem or text, they need to present to the class the most important characteristics making them who they are. 

        Setting Goals

        Even though teaching has not started yet, kids can still form long-term goals for the upcoming year by writing a short paragraph explaining what they want to master (knowledge and/or skills) and why. Then, tell them that you’ll take all of the writings and keep them until the end of the year, which is when you’ll give them back. This way, they’ll see whether they’ve accomplished their goals and reflect on how the year has changed them. 

        Summer Memories

        This one is a classic, but still worth covering. It’s a simple writing activity where kids write a short essay about their summer experiences and memories, then they read it in front of the class if they are comfortable. 

        Alternatively, you can also ask the student to simply share their experience orally, and not by writing an essay. Choose the alternative you think will best fit your students’ abilities and skills. 

        You can also encourage them to write or think of happy memories, no matter how trivial they might seem. 

        Back-to-School Activities for Middle School Students

        Middle schoolers are filled with energy and social drive that makes it a considerable challenge to keep their attention longer than a few minutes. This is why playful back-to-school activities are very important for middle school students. Diving straight into the material from day one might backfire, making them disinterested and impatient, which is why we recommend the following activities. 

        Vocabulary Exercise: Describing My Personality

        There’s still a way for kids to learn without them even realizing it. For instance, through this back-to-school activity, you can enrich kids’ vocabulary by asking them to describe themselves or their best friend in new words. Bonus: make it a game, the student who uses the newest words, wins a reward.

        However, when we say new words, we mean some high-end descriptive adjectives that kids don’t often use. Give them a vocabulary pool of words with their definitions and ask them to find words that best fit their personality (or their best friend’s). 

        What Do I Remember?

        This is an activity that gives teachers the chance to evaluate students’ retained knowledge from the past year, without giving them a test or stressing them out with a formal quiz. 

        Sit in front of the students and ask them to share what they remember most about the past year. Do not limit them, but simply encourage them to share anything they feel is worth remembering. This can be a joke, an activity that made an impression on them, a specific lecture, a field trip, or maybe something else.  

        How I Spent My Summer Vacation

        Just like the “Summer Memories” activity for elementary school students, “How I spent my summer” is a writing activity that asks students to write about their summer, but in a more elaborate way. Instruct students to include skills they’ve learned, new knowledge they’ve gained, new hobbies they’ve taken, places they’ve visited, or more personal experiences if they’re comfortable sharing. 

        Rhyming Riddles 

        Is there a better way to fill the classroom with laughter than challenging kids with a joyful brain game, challenging their creative thinking? They’ll have fun while working on their cognitive development, the best of both worlds. 

        Here are a few examples of a rhyming riddle for kids: 

        The sound of my voice can bring you to tears without a single word touching your ears.

        I have a tongue but cannot talk.

        I regularly go for walks.

        Yet, despite all this, I have no legs.

        No, not even a peg.

        My Personal Journey

        Finally, the last back-to-school activity for middle schoolers is creating a personal journey based on their interests, hobbies, talents, and other important things they find important. Ask them to write down the things they enjoy doing, the questions that cause curiosity, and the skills they would like to develop. Then, with your help, ask them to write a step-by-step plan on how to improve their knowledge or skills regarding the things they’ve written down. 

        Back-to-School Activities for High School Students

        How do you grab the attention of teenagers? It’s not easy, but the following activities might help you make them more interested in the matter at hand. After all, many of the activities involve group work, which for them is a great opportunity for socializing.

        Would You Rather?

        “Would you rather” is a popular party game, which is why we believe it would be appealing to high school students. However, to make it more educational, ask questions that pose a moral dilemma, or a dilemma concerning an upcoming topic. Encourage kids to elaborate their opinions and even develop a debate with other students who might think differently. This would result in a very educational and productive discussion, and that’s the perfect beginning of high school. 

        Back-to-School Stations

        Another back-to-school activity for high school students is to divide them into groups and have them take a look around the classroom materials and set up, trying to make predictions about the upcoming lessons. Additionally, ask them to pick a book, textbook, or other educational material (topic overviews) and choose a topic they want to explore more in-depth, then write a presentation when that topic is covered. 

        Writing Assignment: How I’ve Changed?

        For high school students, this writing assignment should be a more abstract, reflective task that focuses on their identity as a central topic. Teenagers are in their formative years, where their most important job is figuring out who they are and what they want from their life. This is why asking them to write an essay on changes and how their feelings or opinions have changed is an extremely beneficial assignment for their self-development. 

        Anonymous Questionnaire

        Building a positive learning environment and setting good classroom principles that all students will respect is not an easy job. This is why it’s a great idea to start the year by preparing anonymous questionnaires and asking students to fill them out as honestly as they can because it’s only for feedback and improvement.

        This type of evaluation questionnaires are given at the end of the course, but doing one at the beginning is probably even more useful. Ask students what they expect, what they want to learn about, what type of teaching style they prefer, what bothers stem most, on what level is their previous knowledge on the subject, and how they feel about the subject in general. Using this information, you can choose to structure the upcoming lessons accordingly. 

        Setting Up a Career Goal

        Finally, the last back-to-school activity for today is asking kids to set up a career goal. Of course, this is not something decisive as when they have to make a decision at which college or university they’re going to attend, but more of a reflective activity and practice plan that forces students to think about the future in a more serious way. Regardless of what they choose, make them write down how they envision themselves after 10 years – what skills or knowledge they possess, why they are good at their job, what makes them happy, etc. 

        Before You Go

        We hope that these activities will help you prepare students for learning. After all, it’s important to acknowledge that new beginnings are hard and there might be psychological barriers that keep kids on their toes. Spending time to make them feel comfortable with each other and you as a teacher is a productive time that will pay off throughout the year.

        17 Fun First Day of School Activities to Try This Year

        Whether you’ve been teaching for years or it’s your first day as a full-time teacher, the first day of school is usually accompanied by some anxiety — no matter how prepared you might be.  

        It’s the same for students. Uncertainty about friends, teachers, and schoolwork is enough to make even the most extroverted students a bit nervous.

        With that in mind, you should always consider that first day of school activities can stimulate introductions, get students talking, and set the tone for successful classroom management.

        Get inspired by these 17 fun, creative first day of school activities and try them out yourself. They’re easy, free, and guaranteed to ease the tension on a busy, hectic first day of school.

        Plus, we’ve added some of our favorite remote- and social distancing-friendly activity ideas toward the end.

        1. Prodigy Math

        Try Prodigy Math — a curriculum-aligned game-based learning platform for grades 1 to 8 — to engage your class while reinforcing lesson content and teaching essential skills.

        Borrowing hyper-engaging elements from video games, students use Prodigy Math to compete in math duels against in-game characters. To win, they have to answer sets of skill-testing math questions. It’s a great way to get kids excited about learning on the first day of school and beyond.

        Prodigy uses adaptive learning and differentiated instruction principles to personalize learning.

        Use it on the first day of school to get valuable student insights, pre-teach upcoming concepts and understand learning progress all year round.

        Plus, there’s a Placement Test that starts gathering insights as soon as students start their first math battle, and automatically runs every January and August

        The Placement Test determines the math content students see in-game and places students at the grade level that’s right for them. It’s the baseline that all their other math work in Prodigy builds on.

        2. Find a friend

        The “Find a friend” game is a fun activity designed to help students become comfortable with their new classmates. To play, students must first receive worksheets containing a list of topics — such as sports, foods, games, and so on — from which they must pick their favorites.

        Image source: First Grade Schoolhouse, Teachers Pay Teachers

        Distribute the worksheet to students, and allow five minutes or so for everyone to indicate their favorite categories with a pen or pencil. You can create your own worksheet or access free printables such as the one above.

        Then, have students find fellow classmates fitting the description in each box. This will give them a natural talking point as they meet one another — helping them find what they have in common and sparking friendly interaction.

        Note that:

        • Students can list each classmate only once on the worksheet
        • Students should spell names correctly; when they find a friend to add to their sheet, they should ask the friend how to spell their first name
        • You can use this chance to have students show you their best handwriting, setting a good precedent for the school year

        3. “Who’s new?” word search

        Use a free word search generator such as Discovery Education’s puzzle maker to create a word search using the names of your students as the hidden words. Print copies to place on each desk.

        Students will enjoy searching for their names along with those of their classmates. After 10 minutes or so, students naturally begin helping each other — kindling conversation and facilitating introductions.

        4. Thanks for the compliment!

        This lighthearted, confidence-boosting icebreaker encourages students to share compliments about one another.

        To start, every student gets a blank piece of paper taped to their back. Then, each classmate thinks of a compliment to write down on the back of every other student.

        After the entire class is finished, have students remove their papers and read all the compliments they received in front of the class.

        Review with your students what a compliment is (and isn’t) to be sure all compliments are appropriate.

        5. Let’s decorate

        Invite students to help decorate the classroom — sending the message that their opinions are valued, their voices are heard, and you welcome their presence.

        Split the class into four groups and designate each group to a wall. Distribute materials such as markers, posters, tape, and pieces of chart paper. For a personalized touch, have each group come up with one common goal they wish to accomplish in your class, and to summarize it in one word.

        Next, have students write their words in big letters on the chart paper, ensuring each group has a unique goal.

        Once the class is finished, hang them on each designated wall, encouraging your class to embrace the responsibility of making sure they all achieve the goals they set for the end of the school year.

        6. “Would You Rather” Questions

        Lead, guide, and stimulate healthy debate among students with a set of questions that are sure to get the classroom talking.

        Consider a few examples of “would you rather” questions, such as:

        • Would you rather play outdoors or indoors?
        • Would you rather see a firework display or a circus performance?
        • Would you rather go skiing or go to a water park?
        • Would you rather everything in your house be one color or every single wall and door be a different color?
        • Would you rather visit the international space station for a week or stay in an underwater hotel for a week?

        To keep the class on the same page, consider preparing a few questions on a printable such as the one below.

        7. Group contracts

        Write group contracts containing guidelines, and have everyone sign them to foster effective student group work and good behavior in the classroom.

        Group contracts — an important feature of cooperative learning— should be based on expectations students and teachers have for one another.

        You can collect the class’s thoughts by talking about what the ideal group member does, and how he or she behaves. Once you’ve come up with the contract, brainstorm with students to come up with consequences for breaking expectations.

        Image Source: The Creative Colorful Classroom

        For example, in the flexible seating contract above, students agree to use the learning space appropriately. If they break the contract, students agree “that my teacher will move me to a spot that will better meet my needs.”

        8. Student surveys

        Use surveys to collect and assess information about a broad range of topics that will help you get a feel for your new students and guide them to success this school year.

        Consider asking questions about preferences for seating arrangements, group work versus individual work, and noise levels in the classroom.

        Use this information to get a better sense of trends in the classroom. See if you can use the information to differentiate instruction, assessment, and evaluation to improve the learning environment.

        One of the qualities of a good teacher is the capacity to use different teaching strategies — especially ones that are responsive to different students’ unique learning preferences.

        For example, consider taking a survey of how students like to learn, asking the following yes or no questions:

        Endless engagement. Adaptive content. Standards-aligned.

        9. Classroom scavenger hunts

        Send your students on a classroom scavenger hunt, helping them to get to know each other and their new learning space.

        Provide a print-out of classroom items to look for, leaving a space for students to write a brief description of where they found each item.

        The completed scavenger hunt sheets can serve as an easy reference for students in the first weeks of school to ensure they know where to find everything in your classroom.

        You can make the list of items yourself, or use a free printable such as the example below.

        Image Source: The Creative Colorful Classroom

        10. Two truths and a lie

        Encourage students to write down three statements about themselves, with one of the statements being false.

        After giving students five minutes or so to write their sentences down, have them read them out loud one by one — and enjoy the entertainment as fellow students try to guess which of the statements is a lie.

        This activity also serves as a simple, early way to get a gauge of the skill levels of your new students: As your new students write out their sentences, you can walk around and see which students need help might need help with written communication.

        As they read out their sentences, you can also gauge verbal communication skills.

        Be sure to give students an example by sharing your two truths and a lie first. Students always love learning about their new teacher too!

        11. Class time capsule

        Create individualized time capsules on the first day of school. Fill them with items such as personal letters about what students plan to accomplish throughout the school year.

        Letters can include expectations, clubs they would like to join, and desired grade point averages.

        You can also take pictures of your students on the first day, print them out, and put them inside the time capsules.

        On the last day of school, return each student’s time capsule and allow them to see how much they have learned, grown, and achieved throughout the school year.

        12. Tall Thomas

        Encourage students to think of an adjective to describe themselves. The adjective must suit the student and must also start with the first letter of their name — for example, “Tall Thomas,” “Funny Frankie,” or “Smart Sam.

        Encourage students to try and memorize every name to add a skill-testing element to the activity.

        Have the class stand in a circle, and then have one student state his or her new nickname. Then, have the next student try to name the previous name before saying their own name.

        Make sure to keep the activity lighthearted and fun. Feel free to stand in the circle and join the fun to further engage with your students!

        13. Don’t answer

        Ask your class to stand in a circle. Have one student engage with another classmate, and pose the other student a question about his or her personality. To clarify, give students a few examples: “What is your silliest habit?” or “What is your pet peeve?”

        However, explain that the student who is asked the question may not respond — with the student to their left answering for them. Note that the answer doesn’t have to be right and that each student can make their answers as imaginative or creative as possible.

        14. Draw a Self-Portrait

        Provide a self-portrait worksheet such as the one below as an easy beginning-of-year activity. When everyone is finished, have each student present their self-portrait to the class as a formal introduction to their colleagues and to yourself!

        15. Be unique

        Have everyone stand in a circle. Encourage each student, one by one, to say something they believe to be unique about themselves. For example: “My name is Jason, and I have two brothers” or “… and I speak three languages.” If another student also has two brothers or speaks three languages, they must sit down.

        The goal is to stand as long as possible and therefore to share very special things about yourself that no one else typifies.

        16. Six word story

        Get students to explain what they did over the summer using only six words, writing the statement down as a complete sentence on a piece of paper.

        Then, have students exchange papers with a classmate, with that colleague also adding a comment comprised of only six words. You may choose to rotate the papers to adjust the length of the story to your preference!

        17. The question web

        This activity helps students learn interesting facts about one another. Have your students stand in a circle. Next, take a ball of yarn or string and hold on to the end of it while passing the ball to another student.

        Ask this student an interesting question such as “If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go and why?”

        Once they have answered the question, have them pass the ball of yarn to another student in the circle and ask them a question. When all your students have had their turn, explain that the web they created represents the uniqueness of your classroom — and that their participation makes the classroom a special place for learning and creativity.

        First day of school activity ideas for remote learning or social distancing

        Create your own virtual background

        If possible, have older students create their own virtual background on whatever video conferencing tool you use. They can even make it themed to a favorite hobby, video game, book, movie, etc.

        Create a Google Classroom banner quilt

        Have your students collaborate on a blank Google digital classroom quilt square or add their names to a Google Classroom banner template to use in your traditional or online classroom.

        Set up a fun Kahoot quiz

        Kahoot! is a game-based learning platform that makes it easy to create, share and play learning games or trivia quizzes in minutes. Whether you make the quiz about yourself, fun facts about your school or students, or even subject-based questions, your class will have a blast.

        Go over online learning best practices

        This doesn’t scream “fun” but, at the start of a school year, it’s always a good reminder to review classroom rules — especially with the challenges that learning online poses.

        This could include things like routines and procedures for online learning, how to get the teacher’s attention, turning the camera or microphone on and off, changing video backgrounds, or anything else that’s relevant to your specific class.

        Final Thoughts: first day of school activities

        It’s important to pair fun and kindness with clear and firm expectations — so think of the first day of school as your chance to demonstrate your ability to conduct activities that are both enjoyable and orderly.

        See which activities on this list appeal to you most, and try them out yourself as a memorable back to school introduction!

        And whether it’s with Prodigy Math or any of the other first day of school activities listed above, we encourage you to get involved, too! Play with your students.

        It’s a perfect way for you to truly learn about your new students and for them to learn about you!

        10 First Week of School Activities Your Students Will Love

        The first week of school is always a challenge. The kids have been playing and swimming for three months. How are you going to keep their attention for more than 5 minutes? Here are 10 of my favorite first week of school activities.

        The first week of school is all about getting to know your students and getting them back into the school routine. You need activities that will get them up and moving and keep them engaged.

        10 First Week of School Activities

        *This post contains affiliate links and I will be compensated if you make a purchase after clicking on my links. I only recommend products that I use and love.

        #1 – All About Me Bags

        My students receive an All About Me Bag when they meet me at our Popsicle and Packet night the week before school. It has a note on the front telling them about the treats that are inside. It also instructs them to decorate the bag and put three things in it to share the first week of school.

        The students bring the bag back on the first day of school, and we start the day by sharing 5 bags. Each student tells about the three items they brought. Then, they ask for 3 questions or comments from their classmates. This helps us get to know each other and make connections.

        We share 5 bags each morning for the first week of school. By the end of the week, everyone has shared.

        Download the Beginning of the Year Bag Letter at the bottom of this post. Just click “Make a Copy,” and you will be able to edit your name, grade level, and start date.

        #2 – MINGO

        All kiddos love playing BINGO. We start the year with a game of MINGO, where the students have to find classmates who fit certain characteristics.

        This activity gets the kids up and moving and talking to each other. When they find someone who has done an activity, that person has to sign the paper. The goal is to fill the whole MINGO board.

        You can download the MINGO board I use for free from Children Heart Books on TPT.

        #3 – Back to School Unlock the Box Mystery

        An Unlock the Box Mystery is the perfect way to get your students up and moving the first day of school. We all know how hard it is for them to sit still for long periods of time!

        Put a treat into a locked box and challenge your students to solve the clues and unlock the box. To solve the clues, your students will have to explore the classroom and get to know their new classmates.

        Find everything you need for the Back to School Unlock the Box Mystery in the Teach Without Tears TPT Store.

        Get more tips for engaging your students with Unlock the Box Mysteries.

        #4 – Classroom Rules

        One of the most important things to do the first week of school is to establish the classroom rules and practice them. In the past, I’ve read the book Do Unto Otters, and the students helped me write the rules.

        This year, we have four school rules – Be Kind, Be Responsible, Be Respectful, and Be Ready to Learn. I’m still going to read the book. Then, the students are going to make a list of what each of those school rules looks like.

        #5 – All About Me Writing

        Another way I get to know my students is through an All About Me writing assignment. The students answer questions about their favorite things and draw pictures of themselves.

        These make a great display for Meet the Teacher Night or any time parents are coming to school.

        I got my All About Me writing sheets from Really Good Stuff. They don’t have the exact same one anymore, but the one I linked is similar.

        #5 – Me Quilt

        The Me Quilt is an activity I’ve done since my first year teaching. It shows me how well my students are able to follow directions. The Me Quilt is a glyph where students have to listen to directions, find the correct item, and color it the correct color to tell about themselves.

        This activity very quickly shows me who is able to follow directions. I know to keep an eye on those kiddos who are 3 steps behind me and those that keep asking me to repeat the directions.

        I got this activity from another teacher my first year, so unfortunately, I don’t have a link to it.

        #6 – Reading Interest Inventory

        In addition to getting to know my students’ favorite foods and hobbies, I also like to start getting to know them as readers. I have them complete a Reading Interest Inventory so I can find out what types of books they enjoy and how they see themselves as readers.

        We are starting Lucy Calkins Units of Study this year, so the Reading Inventory will let me help them select good-fit books for their book boxes.

        Download my Reading Interest Inventory from my Teachers Pay Teachers Store for free.

        #7 – Numbers About Me

        For math the first day, we get to know each other with numbers. I start by writing 5 numbers on the board that tell about me. Then, the students have to guess what the numbers mean. For example, they need to guess that 315 is my address.

        Then, the students get a piece of paper and write 5 numbers about themselves. They trade papers with a partner, and the partner guesses what the numbers tell about them. This is a really fun activity, and it helps us get to know more about each other.

        #8 – Marshmallow STEM Challenge

        Team building activities are so important at the beginning of the school year. The students need to be able to work together, even when the activity is challenging. I love STEM activities, and the Marshmallow Toothpick Bridges Freebie from Meredith Schaar is so much fun!

        The students use mini marshmallows and toothpicks to build a bridge. Then, they have to see how many pennies their bridge can hold. It’s very challenging, and the students really have to work together to find a way to build a bridge that stands and holds weight.

        #9 – First Day Jitters

        My favorite beginning of the year read aloud is First Day Jitters. I read it every year. The students love finding out that teachers can be nervous on the first day of school, too. It leads to a great discussion of ways to overcome our fears and have a great school year.

        #10 – School Rocks Game

        At the end of the first week of school, we play the School Rocks Game. I put students into groups of 4. To play this board game, the students roll a die and choose a card. Each card asks a question about school. This game is a great way to review your classroom rules and expectations.

        You can download it for free from Dots-n-Spots store on TPT.

        The essence of the concept of “independent activity of students” in teaching schoolchildren

        Bibliographic description:

        Konovodova, Yu. A. The essence of the concept of “independent activity of students” in teaching schoolchildren / Yu. A. Konovodova. – Text: direct // Actual issues of modern pedagogy: materials of the II Intern. scientific conf. (Ufa, July 2012). – Ufa: Summer, 2012. – URL: https://moluch.ru/conf/ped/archive/60/2536/ (date of access: 05.10.2022).

        Professional activity of a modern teacher
        should be aimed at organizing the educational process,
        when students are actively involved in independent work
        obtaining knowledge.

        Independent activity directly affects the personality
        student, creating opportunities for its development, i.e. opportunities for
        the emergence of neoplasms in the personality, new mental qualities
        or their new levels, for the formation of abilities, interests,
        needs, desires, emotions. The important point is that these
        neoplasms refer to qualitative changes in personality as
        of an integral system, affecting not only changes in individual
        components, but also the system of their interconnections. This is what determines the meaning
        independent activity as an essential component in the system
        learning process.

        In literary sources, significant
        attention is paid to the category “activity”. How
        philosophical category “activity” reflects
        a specific human form of relation to the world around,
        the content of which constitutes its expedient change and
        transformation in the interests of people [10]. Also from a philosophical point of view
        It is emphasized that the concept of “activity” is already in itself
        itself includes the goal, means, result and the process itself.

        In philosophy, activity is understood as external and internal
        human activity, regulated by awareness of the goal. Activity
        includes: goal, result, means and the process itself [1].

        The category “activity” has been studied in detail in psychology
        A.N. Leontiev, S.L. Rubinstein, K.K. Platonov and others

        Activity as a substance in itself captures the individual and
        is reproduced by itself [8], i.e. the student is involved in the process
        activities.

        The famous psychologist A.N. Leontiev in the structure of activity singles out
        components such as the actual activity (simple
        activity), action and operation. Under simple activity
        is understood as “… such an activity that does not fall apart
        to action.” At the same time, the motive, subject and goal are simple
        activities always match. The motive is the needs of the individual,
        that encourage action. “Activities without a motive are not
        happens” [4]. Action differs from action in that the goal
        or the expected result does not match the motive. Action feature
        is that it can “move from one activity to
        another”, while being relatively independent.

        The next structural unit of activity is the operation.
        Operations are processes whose goals are not in themselves,
        but in the action of which they are an element, i.e. action
        is made up of operations, and activity is made up of actions. If clearly
        understand the relationship of the structural elements of the activity, then the educational
        the process goes from the teacher’s management of operations to the management
        actions, and then to the management of student activities.

        One of the central ideas of S.L. Rubinstein is
        activity concept of the psyche, consisting in the fact that “reflection
        real life is mediated by concrete human activity”
        [7]. The author develops the meaning of activity from the positions that in it and
        through it, a person realizes his goals, intentions and ideas in a transformable
        them reality, i.e. psyche and activity are one and that the psyche
        is formed only in activity “manifesting itself in activity,
        consciousness is formed in activity” [7].

        Thus, in psychological theory, the subject performs
        activity. Education, from this point of view, is a system
        successive activities, and the activity itself
        motivated process by the student of certain means
        to achieve their own or externally set goal [8].

        The theory of formation and organization of independent educational
        activities developed in the studies of teachers: A.P. Belyaeva,
        V.V. Davydova, P.I. Pidkasistogo, G.I. Schukina and others

        In the studies of P.I. Pidkasistogo [5] the effectiveness of the lesson is put,
        first of all, depending on the activation of independent
        activities of students, from the correct relationship of activities
        students in the lesson. In his experimental studies, he proceeds
        from the position that students during their studies at school should not
        only to acquire a certain amount of scientific knowledge, but also to learn
        buy them on your own. These two sides of the learning process
        organically linked. Cognitive independence
        is formed with a deep and meaningful assimilation by schoolchildren of the basics
        sciences, mastering the skills of working with a book, working in a laboratory, and
        also by applying the acquired knowledge in practice. Among the means
        development of students’ independence, great importance is attached to
        those that are directly related to the forms and methods of teaching.
        As well as elucidating their comparative effectiveness: the combination
        presentation of knowledge by the teacher and independent work of students;
        comparative efficiency and ways of combining reproducing and
        creative, independent works, frontal and individual types
        classes of students in the classroom, individual creative work.

        According to G.I. Shchukina, activity
        characterized in the following aspects: activities are carried out in
        collective, activity develops from reproductive to creative,
        thereby changing the student’s position in it from object to subject.
        Independent learning activity most fully characterizes
        the learning process, being a special, necessary for society
        activity [9].

        An analysis of the works of these scientists showed that in pedagogical science
        independent learning activity is interpreted as purposeful
        activities focused on the assimilation of knowledge and skills. Special
        interest in this is the implementation of self-study
        activities of students in the learning process.

        P.I. Pidkasty believes that the main structural components (goal,
        motive, content, objective actions and result) in an independent
        activities are expressed specifically; they become deeply personal
        meaning becomes relevant and meaningful to the student. characteristic
        is, first of all, the active attitude of the student to the goal of the upcoming
        work that is done independently. In some cases, the goal
        is deeply realized and “assigned” by the student that
        is absolutely necessary, since it projects the expected
        results, in others – the student joins the goal-setting (on
        based on the analysis of the situation), thirdly, he himself sets a goal and in
        carries out its activities in accordance with it. Goal transformation into
        the motive of activity causes those internal impulses that
        characterize the activities of students in the performance of the task. brightly
        a pronounced motive of activity mobilizes cognitive abilities
        student, his will, emotional sphere [5]. The most typical and
        specific for independent activity are motives
        self-control and independence, which are manifested, first of all,
        in the desire of the student to complete the task without outside help,
        satisfy their cognitive needs, approve their
        individuality.

        The most important component of independent cognitive activity
        students, which form the basis of its structure, are independent
        subject actions that the student performs without the help of a teacher. He
        he himself chooses the ways of fulfilling these tasks that are adequate from his point of view.
        actions, performs many operations, controls them in
        accordance with the intended purpose. These actions are varied
        their content and focus and are carried out on the basis of different
        teaching aids, which ensures their diversity and
        objectivity.

        Educational, developmental and educational value
        independent activity lies in the fact that it requires
        solving each problem of a complex of mental, practical and
        organizational actions.

        In independent activity more than in other types
        cognitive activity processes of self-regulation are expressed, one of
        characteristic manifestations of which is self-control. Whatever
        no matter how active the teacher’s guidance was, the correct results of the work
        cannot be achieved if the student does not control his own
        actions.

        As P.I. piddly, independent
        activity always ends with some result. it
        completed exercises, solved problems, written essays,
        completed tables, constructed graphs, prepared answers to
        questions, feelings. And since to these results the student
        comes on its own, their value and significance is realized more sharply
        compared to those mined in joint work [5].

        Teachers N.M. Rosenberg, E.N. Dutko, I.M. Nosachenko to the main
        The signs of independent activity of students include the following:

        a) focus on independent assimilation of knowledge, methods of solving
        educational and practical tasks, including activity planning,
        finding ways to achieve the goal, the ability to implement
        self-control and adjust the work based on its results;

        b) management by the teacher;

        c) the possibility of organizing and conducting individual, group and
        frontal forms of work [6].

        Teacher and psychologist L.V. Zharov [3] stand out
        three levels of self
        activities: copying, reproducing and creative, depending on
        how the student is able to use the acquired knowledge.

        Let’s briefly describe the content of each level.

        Low level. The student can perform actions on the finished sample
        (copy). According to L.S. Vygotsky, imitation is
        property of a developing personality, on the other hand, a way
        knowledge of reality. L.S. Vygotsky wrote to imitate
        the child should be able to move from what he can to
        what he does not know [2].

        The middle level (actively searching) is characterized by freedom
        application of knowledge in a standard situation. Purpose of work, educational task
        put forward by the teacher, but the student can plan its solution himself.
        Performing exercises, examples, outlining the text, the student exposes
        material of partial reconstruction, the essence of the issue is able to reveal with its own
        words without copying the textbook or teacher’s story.

        High level (intense – creative). Apprentice successfully
        applies knowledge in a new, non-standard situation, i.e. observed
        transfer phenomenon.

        A personal development-oriented learning strategy encourages
        conduct in the class differentiation of students according to the levels of independence and
        purposefully develop these levels.

        Each of these levels objectively exists. Program –
        the maximum for any creatively working teacher is to bring
        as many children as possible to a higher level of independence.

        Entering the system of the learning process, independent activity
        indirectly affects the process of self-education, determining its quality,
        by stimulating the development of such personality traits as
        introspection, self-regulation, initiative, creativity, and
        also forming general techniques and methods for implementing independent
        cognitive activity, its methodology, without which
        self-education is ineffective and unsystematic.

        In addition, in the process of implementing interconnected activities
        teacher and student, the opportunity for which is provided during
        independent learning activities of the student, develops and
        the student’s perception of himself as a subject, not an object, is formed
        educational process, which qualitatively affects not only
        process of self-education, but also largely determines the process
        education outside of school.

        The influence of independent activity on the development and formation
        personality of the student is a universally recognized fact in modern
        pedagogical science.

        Research activities of students

        General pedagogical technologies


        Different children study in a modern school. Each student has their own interests
        abilities, desires, opportunities. But despite this, we, teachers, must give
        knowledge to all children, to teach them the basics of understanding the world around them, to educate them in
        each student a comprehensively developed personality capable of self-determination and
        self-realization. Therefore, every teacher is in constant search of new
        methods and techniques of training and education, new forms of conducting training sessions,
        conducive to improving the quality of the educational process, fostering interest
        to the subject being studied, to the learning process, the development of cognitive and creative
        abilities of children..

        organization of research activities of schoolchildren.

        Research activity of schoolchildren is the activity of students
        under the guidance of a teacher, associated with the solution of creative research
        a problem with an unknown solution in advance and assuming the presence of main stages,
        characteristic of research in the scientific field.

        Organization of research activities of schoolchildren allows
        develop students’ cognitive interests, independence, culture
        educational work, allows you to systematize, generalize, deepen knowledge in
        a certain area of ​​the subject and teaches them to apply in practice.

        The product of the research activities of schoolchildren is
        creative research work. There are five types of creative
        research papers:


        Abstract – works based on the collection and presentation
        information on the chosen topic. The essence of abstract work is the choice of material from
        primary sources that most fully cover the chosen problem. Specificity
        the abstract lies in the fact that it does not contain detailed evidence, comparisons,
        reasoning


        Experimental – creative works written on the basis of performance
        an experiment described in science and having a known result. Job data
        are rather illustrative in nature, suggest an independent interpretation
        characteristics of the result depending on the change in the initial conditions.


        Design – creative works, which are based on the achievement and
        a description of a pre-planned result for solving a problem,
        meaningful to the project participants.


        Descriptive – creative work aimed at observation and
        qualitative description of a phenomenon. Job data can have an element
        scientific novelty. A distinctive feature is the lack of quantitative
        research methods.


        Research – creative work done with the correct
        scientific point of view of the technique, having obtained using this technique
        own experimental material, on the basis of which the analysis and
        conclusions about the nature of the phenomenon under study. The peculiarity of such work is
        the uncertainty of the result that research can give.

        All creative works have common elements:

        1. All works are performed using literary sources, but
          performing abstract works, literature analysis is the main
          the content of the work, and when performing design, experimental,
          descriptive, research works analysis of literary sources
          acts as a literature review of data on the phenomenon under study.
        2. In the methodological plan, all types of work are structured for setting
          problems, the actual material and conclusions.

        A distinctive feature of research work from other types of creative
        works is:

        1. Practical methodology for the study of the selected phenomenon.
        2. Own experimental material.
        3. Analysis of own data and conclusions arising from it.

        There is a certain algorithm for performing research work –
        technological chain, which includes four stages:

        Philosopher, educator Sophocles said: “Great things are not done suddenly”. To
        achieve high results, improve the quality of education, teach the child the basics
        knowledge of the world requires a long painstaking joint work of the teacher, student and
        parents. The main task of the teacher is not just to transfer knowledge to the student, but to teach
        to train him. And this is largely taught by the organization of research
        schoolchildren’s activities.

        What does the educational activity of younger schoolchildren develop and what does not develop? It is not customary, however, to ask what this system of education cannot develop, the development of what age-related potentials it hinders. Putting the question in this way, I want to emphasize the danger and responsibility

        choosing the direction of development , which adults make for the child, placing him in one or another educational institution, that is, offering him a completely specific (note: not determined by the child) subject of joint activity and an equally specific type of educational relationship.

        Declaring its goals and intentions, i.e., denoting the direction of development of its pupils, each domestic psychological and pedagogical school, in the self-name or self-definition of which there is the word “development”, swears allegiance to the ideas of L. S. Vygotsky. All these schools proceed from a single premise about the potentially universal and universal nature of man [19], but they interpret the relationship between learning and development in their own way. A constructive result of the simultaneous existence of different schools, deriving their genealogies from a single theoretical source, was a non-linear representation of the zone of proximal development, and, consequently, the relationship between learning and development. It became obvious that different psychological and pedagogical schools intend to lead the child from the same point of actual development in different directions, using their own specific educational technologies for this. But the same child cannot be led both to the left and to the right at the same time.

        Of course, the choice of a possible direction of a child’s development is a matter of purely value and is not verified in the scientific categories of truth or falsity. The disputes raging today between adherents of various areas of developmental education or education often flare up on the sovereign and untouchable territory of the value self-determination of each psychological and pedagogical school. Meanwhile, the question of the merits of one or another technology of developmental education and the compatibility of the best elements of different technologies is correct to raise only where the directions of development chosen on value grounds basically coincide. Within the scientific community, all of us – the creators and designers of educational systems – are obliged to be responsible for the consistency of the declared goals and the means of developmental education used. Precisely specifying the goals of education, that is, honestly saying what a certain educational system develops and what does not develop, is our duty to teachers and parents who choose this or that educational system, based mainly on what its authors promise.

        All these eternally difficult problems of choice are doubly difficult for those whose personal and professional development took place under Soviet rule, because in the USSR the problem of choosing the direction of a child’s development through the choice of the educational system did not exist. In all schools of a vast territory, a single general education school reigned, which quite successfully, of course, with a certain percentage of defects, fulfilled the main state order: it molded the type of thinking and personality that the totalitarian regime demanded – conscientious and diligent workers who did not have independence and initiative in accepting decisions, people committed to the goals of the team and uncritical in relation to the leaders.

        Emerged in line with the Vygotsky school in the late 1950s, the Elkonin-Davydov system, one of the most influential “new” educational systems, until recently could not receive wide social recognition and remained a purely academic study of the age-related capabilities of children of primary school age [3]. In terms of its values, this educational system was essentially dissident, because it contradicted the social order of the state and, moreover, sought to develop in its pupils qualities that were dangerous and inconvenient in the Soviet community: independence of judgments and actions, independence from authorities, criticality towards one’s own and other people’s actions, initiative in setting new tasks, the ability and inclination to transform existing modes of action if they conflict with the new conditions of action.

        Based on the concept of psychological age as a space of children’s opportunities, only partially realized by the education system, D. B. Elkonin formulated the hypothesis that the level of intellectual achievements, which, under the then existing (and prevailing to this day) system of primary education, is demonstrated only by gifted children of 6-12 years old, becomes available to the majority of younger schoolchildren when teaching a different type [16]. It was about the ability of gifted children, after the first attempts to solve a new problem, to single out its most essential conditions and then, focusing on them, solve all problems of the same class “from the spot”, practically without errors [1]. D. B. Elkonin suggested that if, at the very first step of teaching a new subject, an adult helps children to do what the gifted do without outside help: to identify and fix the connections that are most significant for this subject, then most of the younger students can form the ability to reflect , which, with spontaneous development, is considered the lot of the elite. To transform this hypothesis into a theory of learning activity as a form of development of the theoretical consciousness of junior schoolchildren [5], a forty-year experiment was required, conducted under the guidance of V.V. learning and a new system for diagnosing its developmental effects [10].

        The main novelty of this system of education lies in the idea of ​​VV Davydov that the introduction to a subject should begin with the discovery by children of the most general properties of this subject. Students discover these common properties as a result of actions to transform the original subject of study in its sensually perceived form and fix it in the model. Further study of the subject unfolds as concretization, enrichment of the original general concept when meeting with new facts [4]. The movement from the general to the particular, or, in the terminology of W. F. Hegel, “the ascent from the abstract to the concrete” occurs in situations where children encounter contradictions between the knowledge fixed in the model and a new fact. The resolution of these contradictions leads to the enrichment of the original concept.

        I will illustrate this general position on the example of teaching Russian spelling to children. It has the following general law: there are sounds that can be designated by letters by ear (act according to the rule “what I hear, I write”), and there are sounds for which several letters “argue” and which are risky to write by ear. These sounds form orthograms, and the choice of a letter when writing an orthogram presents an orthographic task. There are several dozen such classes of spelling problems, private ways to solve them children are taught for 6-8 years; and this is what the traditional teaching of spelling in the Russian school boils down to.

        In the Elkonin-Davydov system, before teaching children particular ways of solving certain classes of spelling problems, they are taught the general way of setting any spelling problem [8]. In the 1st grade, even before studying specific types of orthograms, children discover the very existence of a spelling as a problem of choosing a letter and learn to ask (adult, dictionary, reference book) about each spelling unknown to them. If it is possible to teach a child systematic “spelling doubt”, which is based on the ability to separate known and unknown spellings, then it is possible to ensure error-free writing long before knowing all the specific spelling rules. A special check [13] showed that at the end of class III 92% of the students who studied according to the Elkonin-Davydov system were able to write an extremely complex dictation without errors precisely because they were able to ask all the necessary spelling questions. Only 24% of the students who studied according to the traditional system coped with this task.

        Such a difference in the ability of children to independently set new spelling tasks is determined primarily by the way they learn. Some children knew the general concept “spelling”, on the basis of which one can recognize any, even for the first time, spelling, think about choosing a letter, ask an adult for the missing information and not make a mistake, other children knew only particular methods for solving certain classes of spelling problems, and in unknown cases, they acted at random, unaware of the possibility of making a mistake.

        Now let’s do a thought experiment. Let us invite all these children to further improve their literacy on their own by providing them with excellent reference books, self-study books and the schedule of work of teacher-advisers. Which group of children will be in a better position? Of course, the one that knows how to independently determine what they do not yet know, what to ask the consultant about, what to look for in the handbook, that is, they know how to set new learning goals. In other words, education according to the Elkonin-Davydov system forms ability to teach yourself on your own . Reflexive in nature, the ability to separate the known from the unknown and to make an assumption about the content of the unknown (but not yet the ability to independently look for ways to test the stated hypotheses) is the level of educational independence that is available to most 10-11-year-old schoolchildren who studied in elementary school according to the system Elkonin – Davydov [10].

        The works of VV Davydov describe in detail the subject and structure of children’s learning activities aimed at finding and developing common methods for solving problems. Therefore, here I will allow myself to very briefly name only the most essential characteristics of educational activity; At the same time, the focus of consideration will not be a practical question: how it is organized, but a semantic question: why is it organized in this way.

        1. Why and how is the educational activity of younger students organized?

        When a child first sits down at a desk, he already has his own concept of number, word, social norms – everything that they are going to teach him at school. The child’s naive, worldly concept is significantly different from the adult, teacher’s, but the child is unaware of this. Because of this, situations of multi-subject interaction often arise in the classroom, when children and adults use the same term to name different objects. If the teacher, sharing the goals and values ​​of the creators of the system of educational activities, sees in the child not tabula rasa , and the person with whom it is necessary to negotiate the general grounds for joint action , i.e., to build a common concept (common both for the class of tasks and for all participants in joint educational activities), then he has to almost simultaneously solve the following pedagogical tasks:

        I. To create a situation in which the child discovers: a) his own, as a rule, non-normative, idea of ​​the phenomenon under discussion, b) the existence of other ideas, other points of view, c) the insufficiency of his idea for solving a new problem, or to defend your own opinion. If the teacher manages to present to the children the sides of a conceptual contradiction through the clash of their own points of view, then educational task , aimed at introducing a new concept, can be considered set, that is, emotionally captured by children. It is clear that the formulation of the educational problem is achieved only through the organization of discussion in which the teacher helps the children to fix all the expressed points of view and see the internal logic of each of them. It is also clear that in elementary school the setting of a learning task should be carried out primarily in the form of objective and game actions that provide a sensory-figurative basis for emerging concepts, and not only in the form of verbal disputes [7], [18].

        II. To give the child a tool for retaining and analyzing a sensually elusive abstraction before its verbal description. This tool is schemes and other sign-symbolic means that describe both the subject of study and the method of its transformation [12]. Schemes, which in the practice of educational activity are used primarily as a means of obtaining and storing new knowledge, are at the same time a written monument of the discoveries made by children; the scheme is what the most dramatic event of educational activity is molded into – the search for a solution to the educational problem. The schema built by a class as a result of the acutely experienced drama of ideas and the struggle of opinions, even if it is exactly similar to the schemas built in a hundred other classes, is copyright work; pointing a finger at it, the child says: “We discovered it ourselves. And now I have the right to use this discovery as the basis of my action.” It is not necessary to imagine the scheme, which is the first language for the student to describe his knowledge and ignorance, as dry theoretical jargon, alienated from the speaker, devoid of sensuality and emotionality. Such a language of schemes can become if it turns from a means of educational communication into its ultimate goal, if the student builds a scheme in order to complete the task of the teacher and earn his praise, and not in order to solve a problem that is significant for him or express his point of view .

        III. To make the task meaningful, for this the question should be asked not by the teacher, but by the children. The transition from the relationship “asking teacher – answering student” to the relationship “asking student – teacher helping the child to formulate his question and find an answer to it” – this is the main condition for educating a younger student as a subject educational, and not performing activity. The most difficult pedagogical task of a teacher who builds learning (and not any other) activity is the task of self-change: the teacher has to overcome the stable illusion that the child is learning when he finds the right answers to the teacher’s questions. The child learns when he asks himself, he himself builds hypotheses about the unknown and seeks to test them (for example, with the help of a teacher who organized the situation of asking and searching for the unknown). Answering questions not asked by children is, unfortunately, the single principle of constructing most traditional curricula and manuals, the general way teachers work in most schools and universities. If it is possible to educate a student who asks the teacher, and not only answers the teacher’s questions, then such a student develops the ability to learn – independently set new learning goals and independently find means to achieve them [14].

        In the course of experiments on the organization of learning activities in elementary school lessons, it was proved that the first children’s questions and hypotheses are born most successfully if the teacher organizes the joint actions of the children themselves so that different points of view on the problem under discussion are not distributed between a child and an adult, and between peers – equally ignorant, equally inept, equally imperfect partners [13]. At the same time, children almost inevitably discover the inconsistency of different logics, the partiality of their own rightness.

        So, the specific content built in the logic of ascending from the most general, essential to more and more specific properties of the subject being studied, and the specific form of cooperation, which allows polarizing different points of view to identify their foundations, distinguish learning activity from other types of activity existing in the school at every lesson. Purpose of learning activity: by organizing the search for common ways of action , an adult creates conditions for the development in children of the ability to separate the known from the unknown and formulate questions – hypotheses about the unknown. The basis of these skills is defining reflection , which reveals itself in the subject actions of the student as the ability to learn new skills, in communication – as the ability to see the difference in points of view, in self-consciousness – as an interest in self-change. The connection of a new (reflexive) type of generalization with a new (positional, allowing one to distinguish the positions of partners) method of communication – is the connection of the INTRA- and INTERpsychic stage of development of the ability (ability) to teach and change oneself, i.e. to go beyond the boundaries of one’s own knowledge and skills.

        2. Why and how to distinguish learning activities from other activities present in the lesson?

        The basis for posing such a question is the very concept of “leading activity”, which can perform its function (set the main direction, leading theme, leitmotif of development) not as a solo instrument for the formation of new abilities (new formations), but only in a symphony of others ( non-leading) activities. The basis for answering this question can be the periodization of the leading types of activity proposed by D. B. Elkonin [17]. Taking into account the fact that any activity of a child begins as a joint activity with an adult and peers, the periodization of the leading forms of activity can be simultaneously read as a periodization of the leading forms of communication and cooperation specific to each activity.

        Scheme 1 is a kind of score for designing and reading a lesson in all the variety of cooperative and communicative processes taking place there.

        It differs from the classical scheme of DB Elkonin in two extensions. The first extension is related to the idea of ​​E. Erickson [20] that no age ends with the onset of the next age. Once having appeared, this or that form of activity and cooperation should live while its bearer is alive. When it is born, it performs the leading function, that is, it determines the general direction of the child’s mental development. Later, it continues to serve the range of life tasks for which it is intended, it has its own territory and its own tools (its own motives, goals, subject matter, means). If this does not happen, if one of the forms of cooperation does not develop or perishes, then this inevitably leads to a certain inferiority of the entire mental life of a person. The most difficult thing is the loss of basic trust in oneself, in the world and in people – a person reacts to the loss or impoverishment of direct-emotional communication – the earliest, basic form of a child’s connection with the world. But no less traumatic are other injuries in the living body of cooperation. So, about a person who has not mastered object-manipulative cooperation (let me remind you that the improvement of this line also lasts a lifetime) they say that he has “both hands are left”, because the acquisition of any manual skill is given to him with difficulty. A person who has not learned or has forgotten how to play suffers from a poverty of imagination, which limits his creative possibilities. And the lack of formation of educational cooperation leads to the inability to learn, that is, to improve oneself in the sphere of thinking and activity for the rest of one’s life.

        The second extension of DB Elkonin’s scheme is a consequence of the first one. If none of the types of activity and cooperation mastered by the child, having given rise to its mental neoplasms, subsequently dies off, then the question of how it is restructured under the influence of the subsequent age-related achievements of the child and how it retains its morphological and functional autonomy is logical. As an example, direct-emotional communication between a child and an adult is improved under the influence of speech and other psychological neoplasms of the following ages and at the same time remains itself: an activity aimed at “cognizing and evaluating another person and searching for, clarifying the relationship of an adult to oneself” [ eleven; 279-280]? This question is answered by the periodization of forms of communication created by M. I. Lisina and her followers [6], which exists within other joint activities, not coinciding with them either in terms of goals or means.

        Scheme 1. Age periodization of the leading and undying forms of joint activity of a child and an adult

        Double icons of scheme 1 indicate transitional forms of joint actions. Thus, the icon {©\”} denotes the communication of a child acting with an object with a loving adult who expressively accepts and evaluates the child as an actor and his unique manner of acting. It is clear that without such a layer of relations, a layer of proper object-business relationships oriented to patterns of objective actions.Other doubled icons are read similarly.0009

        The main task of this scheme is to ensure such a completeness of the forms of jointness in the lesson, in which the entrance to learning activities will be open to children with a variety of personal orientations and values: not only cognizers, but also communicators, dreamers, practitioners, aesthetes . .. For this The lesson as a unit of the life of a younger student should be presented as a fusion of various forms of cooperation built by an adult with an accurate knowledge of its ingredients and their proportions.

        Scheme 2 serves as a tool for answering the question of what task the student is solving in the lesson, that is, the subject of what activity he is, when the teacher invites him to educational cooperation. It is extremely important to determine this, because far from always a child solves exactly the task that an adult sets before him. Thus, the teacher often offers the child a learning task aimed at finding a way to solve a new problem, and the child, imperceptibly for the teacher, replaces the learning task with a performing, playing or communicative one. The substitution of the subject of the educational task is determined only with the help of special diagnostic \”traps\”. A directly observable behavioral criterion that makes it possible to determine what form of cooperation a child enters into is the method of proactively inviting a partner to communicate, derived from two other characteristics of cooperation that are irreducible to each other: 1) the method of interaction between partners, b) the system of mutual expectations of partners ( scheme 2, lines 2-4).

        It has been experimentally established that the form and content of joint leading activity are noncoinciding factors of development [13], which makes it possible to separate two types of neoplasms (Scheme 2, lines 5-6). The functioning of neoplasms associated with the development of new objectivity ensures the success of individual activity. Neoplasms associated with mastering a new form of cooperation make a person capable of establishing certain relationships with other people and with himself. This scheme did not include new formations of self-consciousness, which most likely arise in crisis ages [9] and not coinciding with the identified two types of neoplasms of stable ages.

        2. 1. Educational activity and direct-emotional communication

        The brightest event of the first lessons in the 1st grade is not learning activity, but direct-emotional communication, in which children strive to enter into with the teacher. The birth of educational cooperation begins in the same way as the birth of human communication: intense eye contact, the desire for bodily contact (to touch clothing, cuddle, caress), motor and vocal animation, a smile when a teacher appears – all these easily recognizable components of the infant “complex first graders, like all people in the world, use to involve a new and extremely significant adult in the activity from which the basic conditions of any other activity grow: emotional well-being, trust, openness. Children are usually extremely proactive in non-verbal expressions of kindness and attention to the teacher. If this is not observed, if it is not possible to establish eye contact with a child who has just sat down at a desk, if the child does not smile, avoids touching, then this serves as an alarming signal for the teacher and school psychologist of trouble precisely in the directly emotional sphere; with such a child, it is necessary to immediately establish, first of all, trusting, warm relations – and only after that to build educational cooperation.

        Scheme 2 . The main characteristics of the leading forms of activity and their developmental effects

        Leading characteristics:

        Direct-emotional communication

        3. The nature of the partner’s initiative invitation to cooperate

        Expressions of kindness (predominantly non-verbal)

        “Show me how to do it! Right? Good? It doesn’t work … ”- Request for Sample, Control and Evaluation

        “Come on as if … You will … And I will … “- alternation of the game and inter-game communications about the ways of interaction

        “I can solve this problem if. ..” is a missing knowledge hypothesis to be tested jointly

        4. What a child expects from an adult partner

        Presence, empathy, support, acceptance, appreciation

        Sample demonstration, step-by-step help, control and evaluation

        Building a shared vision and freedom to improvise within an agreement

        Ability to coordinate actions, taking into account the playing role of a partner

        Ability (skill) to learn

        7. With the full formation of age-related neoplasms, the following is observed:

        Trust in self and others, resilience to emotional stress, empathy

        Ability to learn from samples and instructions

        Ability to act in the mind, to create; social skills of cooperation with adults and peers

        Knowing the limits of one’s capabilities and the ability to overcome them: setting and solving problems of changing one’s ZUNs

        8. With underdevelopment of age observed:

        Inability to love and trust, lack of self-confidence, low self-esteem

        Poor fantasy, difficulty in dealing with unusual situations, social egocentrism

        Lack of ability to learn, predominance of rational thinking

        9. With hypertrophy

        the development of age-related neoplasms is observed:

        Dependence on emotional support and evaluation of other people, need for overprotection, loss of the object of cooperation, withdrawal into interpersonal communication

        10. The contribution of age to learning activities

        Trust in the teacher, the need to establish a relationship with him, self-confidence, openness to new experience

        Ability and propensity to imitate the teacher’s patterns of action, follow instructions and rules

        Mastering the role of a student and the rules of life of a “real student”, readiness for an educational discussion

        Youthful ability to learn independently

        The teacher will not be able to start building a new (learning) community with children without relying on children’s gullibility and openness of communication, uncritical acceptance of an adult (with any curriculum) as a universal source of care, goodwill and protection in the new, unknown school world . For the teacher’s business-like detachment, distance, emotional closeness, children pay with school anxiety. For the desire of some children to reduce all relationships in the classroom to direct-emotional relationships, the teacher pays with the loss of any objectivity of joint actions, except for the objectivity of direct-emotional communication: the evaluative side of the relationship “I am the other.” Children who strive to reduce all communication to directly emotional revel in the personal attention of the teacher, consider praise and signs of sympathy addressed to them as the only content of the lesson, strive to prolong bodily contact with the teacher, keep him near them, and for this willingly and ingenuously demonstrate their helplessness and affection , tears and other emotional means achieve hyper-custody, intellectual “spoon-feeding”.

        These extreme cases only set off the norm: all children with a normally developed need for acceptance, emotional support and benevolence from the teacher strive to enter into direct emotional communication with him, in which any objectivity of joint action is dissolved, emasculated. Therefore, the teacher faces the most difficult task of maneuvering between the Scylla of non-objectivity and uncritical trust and the Charybdis of unemotionality and independence of judgment.

        Ways of building evaluative relationships in the classroom – this is the bridge through which the teacher transfers children who are primarily oriented towards relationships into learning activities. Against the background of an invariably benevolent attitude towards the personality of the student, the teacher teaches children the most differentiated business self-esteem. Let us give only one method of such training (see table). After each written work, the children evaluate it according to several criteria, for example, put crosses on the rulers in the middle column of the table.

        Checking children’s work, the teacher puts his grades on the same rulers, and the next day he congratulates those children “who have already learned to evaluate themselves as a real teacher” and explains to the others the reasons for the discrepancy between the children’s and the teacher’s grades. For example, if a child rated himself too low, the teacher says: “You solved four examples for subtraction. Two, i.e. half , you decided correctly. That’s why I put my cross exactly in the middle of the ruler. Your cross is much lower. You did a better job than you think. I ask you today, when evaluating your work, to be fair to yourself. ”

        Table 1.

        I’m sure I’ve solved everything

        addition examples correct

        |——x——-|

        I’m sure I solved all the addition problems WRONG

        I am sure that I solved all subtraction problems correctly

        |—————x——|

        I am sure that I solved all the subtraction problems WRONG

        I wrote the work very beautifully

        |–x—–|

        I wrote the work very ugly

        Every day comparing their own assessment of their work with the teacher’s and participating in the creation of assessment criteria, children master objective assessment criteria and quite early stop mixing the global personal assessment of themselves as a worthy and beloved student, and a partial assessment that does not affect acceptance / rejection his skill in spelling, counting and other academic prowess. Distinguishing personal and business evaluation and mastering business self-esteem are the means to avoid confusion between the two types of cooperation – educational and direct-emotional.

        2. 2. Educational and object-manipulative activity

        Educational activity is constantly mixed with object-manipulative activity, leading in the development of children in the first three years of life [15], [17]. Even in early childhood, a child begins to learn from an adult various actions with tools and signs, the main feature of which is that “neither its social function nor the method of its rational use is written on the object” [15; 6]. A child is not able to discover a method of action with any human tool and sign without samples of action , which he masters only in joint action with an adult – the carrier of these samples. The method of object-manipulative cooperation between a child and an adult is imitation , or action according to a model. The formula for this type of collaboration is: “Do it with me, and now do it yourself, but is the same as I am “. Unlike a one-year-old child, a first grader is already capable of delayed imitation based on verbal instruction. A six-seven-year-old child is a virtuoso imitator, capable of reproducing the finest features of the sample, but not yet able to single out the essential in the sample – what needs to be imitated, and the non-essential – what can and should be done in his own way.

        Such a global, undifferentiated, contextual reproduction of the teacher’s models of action, and most importantly, the very tendency to imitate, gives rise to a special type of schoolchildren who are extremely diligent and diligent, act well according to instructions, but get lost in the actual educational situation, when the teacher does not give any sample solutions new task, but encourages children to search for independent solutions, to make assumptions. Instead of acting in their own way, children with an exaggerated tendency to imitate begin to initiate the adult help that they need. They call the teacher and touchingly, childishly complain about their helplessness: “I can’t do it … I don’t know what to do … Show me how to solve … ” In other words, these children voluntarily refuse to independently search and ask an adult to give a ready-made sample or instruction, which they will willingly follow. The skills and abilities of such children are formed successfully, but each new task confuses them again and again. If this tendency to imitate is not overcome in the course of schooling, then the student will not develop the ability to learn – to independently set and solve new problems.

        The main means of overcoming reproductive tendencies and transferring children focused primarily on the implementation of rules, obedience and imitation into educational activities is the systematic organization of joint work of students, which takes place in relative independence from the adult – the bearer of samples [13]. At the same time, the optimal content of the joint educational work of children is unsolvable or underdetermined tasks. “Write the answer where possible. If you cannot solve the problem, ask me what will help you solve it. But each group has the right to ask me only one question,” the teacher says to the first graders and offers them tasks of this type:

        A = B A = B

        s

        ___ ___

        A? C A? C

        “How to solve a second example?” – ask the teacher a child focused on reproductive action and asking for a role model. In the joint action of children, much more often than in individual action, a different kind of appeal to the teacher arises: “Is B more than C or less?” – for the sake of this question, all the work was started. When the student is able to ask the teacher for the missing data, he has taken the first step towards the ability to separate the known from the unknown and formulate a question regarding the unknown. Such a request for missing knowledge is strikingly different from the complaint of a child-imitator, indicating to an adult the limits of his abilities: “I myself (a) cannot. Show me what to do!” Now the child communicates to the teacher a much more optimistic and independent thought, which contains not only an indication of the limit of the child’s possibilities, but also an assumption about what is beyond this limit – the hypothesis of the unknown: “I will succeed if I find out something and so-and-so.”

        2. 3. Educational and play activities

        “He plays, not studies!” – teachers and parents give such a characteristic to many first-graders who are really ready to learn anything, but present their own legitimate demands of creative people to the learning process. First, they want to enjoy the very process of training. Promises like “you will learn how to write even sticks, then you yourself will be pleased to look at your notebook” do not work. Pleasure should be received from the writing of sticks. Therefore, a head, a bow or a flower is attached to each stick. Secondly, “gamblers” want to have constant food for imagination and improvisation. And if such food is not enough in the lesson, they are ready to generously share it with others: we write the word beetle, so let’s buzz for our pleasure. “Players” really like it at school, because the whole school life seems to them a giant game with difficult but interesting rules (how to raise your hand, how to go to recess, how to greet the teacher, how to add numbers, how to indicate the softness of consonants …) and the extremely attractive role of the “true student”. It is also wonderful that everyone around also plays their roles well. The teacher does what she is supposed to: gives assignments and praises. Parents also do what they are supposed to do: they buy a satchel, notebooks, a ruler, a pencil case, pens and other school “toys” and are proud of their child. All familiar adults also regularly play their roles: respectfully ask about the school and give advice. This exciting game lasts for several months and helps children to painlessly master the social role of the student and the social norms of school behavior.

        The child’s fascination with school as a complex game according to the rules for a long time obscures the most important intellectual problem from him: the “player” does not see that rules like “twice two is four” and rules like “if you want to speak in class, raise your hand” have a completely different nature and only the latter relates to the social role of the schoolchild. When asked why two and two make four, the honest “gamer” replies: “These are the rules. That’s what they told us at school.” The game is an indispensable means for the universal foundations of mathematical, linguistic and other concepts to be filled with personal meaning for the child, to become the child’s own logic. But such a means is not any, but a completely specific – conceptual game, for which special conceptual characters are created. The conceptual characters of educational games embody the concept, i.e., they allow the theoretical abstraction to be dressed in the flesh of feelings. Acting on behalf of such a character, the child is doomed to act according to the logic of the concept [2].

        For example, in order to master the concept of “spelling”, a child learns not to act like game characters in a Russian language textbook, embodying the spontaneous spelling orientations of a first grader who has just begun to study the basics of Russian spelling. Ushan Poslushenny is a famous linguist who created a consistent theory of Russian writing: “It is written as it sounds”: cinema and ristaran . According to the equally original theory of the equally famous linguist Neslukh Naoborotov, it is necessary to write not as it is heard, but vice versa: restaurant and keno . In the disputes of these characters of the Russian language textbook, the last word is left to the student, whose remark ends each dialogue. The child’s own opinion acquired in these dialogues (not about how to write a sign for a restaurant and cinema, but about how to write without errors until you know the rules for choosing a letter, that is, about where and how to systematically doubt) is emotionally experienced and sensually colored basis of the concept of “spelling”. So the game can become an emotional-symbolic entry into theoretical thinking for many first-graders with a game type of values.

        CONCLUSION

        VV Davydov saw the key to the problem of internalization or the formation of its main new formations in the study of the problem of the subject of educational activity [5].

        Educational activity becomes a form of reflexive development only for those schoolchildren who are its subjects, but not a single first-grader sits at a desk as a ready-made subject of the upcoming educational activity. However, all children have a fair amount of experience of subjectivity in preschool activities, and this experience can both contribute to and hinder the formation of a new – educational type of subjectivity. The preschool experience of subjectivity becomes an obstacle in those frequent cases when a child replaces educational objectivity with the objectivity of preschool activity, and the teacher does not notice this or is not able to cope with it. An adult can cope with the substitution of an educational task, educational cooperation for some other, by building forms of action and interaction, transitional between educational and other types of activity.

        In this article, the question of the relationship between educational (leading) and other (slave) activities was raised twice. First, as an answer to the question in the title. Educational activity develops only its own new formations, and the improvement of all preschool achievements in mental development should not take place in an educational form. Educational activity develops in younger students the ability to reflect , which allows them to separate the known from the unknown and, using hypotheses regarding the unknown, refer to the grounds for their own actions and the actions of a partner in jointly solving new problems (this partner can be both a peer and a teacher). The ability to ask, request missing information, readiness to change the established methods of action if they conflict with new facts, criticality to actions and opinions – one’s own and others’, unwillingness to take anything for granted, independence in assessments and self-assessments, the habit of looking for evidence and a tendency to debatable ways of solving any issue – these are the behavioral manifestations of the reflexive development of younger students as subjects of educational activity.

        Educational activity does not develop those abilities that are basically non-reflexive – gullibility, imitation, fantasizing with a zero reality index. These abilities are developed in other activities that can be enriched through learning activities, but by no means replaced by them. Building a child’s school life, developing curricula, planning a lesson, the designer and teacher must combine all activities in due proportion at each specific moment of learning, otherwise the child’s development may turn out to be one-sided.

        Secondly, the question of the relationship between educational and non-educational activities of the child is a question about the individual typological features of the entry of different children into the objectivity of joint educational activities. It was shown above that children with different value attitudes and, accordingly, different subjective preferences should be provided with different inputs into learning activities. For a child whose preschool experience of subjectivity pushes him into play and playful relationships with adults and peers, special centauric forms of work should be created, playful in form and educational in content, i.e., orienting to the essential properties of the subject of study. For a child whose subjective preferences determine the substitution of a learning task for a communicative one, differentiated self-assessment becomes the thread of Ariadne orienting him in the maze of learning tasks. For a child who has come to school with a subject orientation to practical action, for a child who values ​​himself primarily for the excellent products of his efforts, the very method of obtaining these products should be such a product.

        The system of educational activities is not the only possible direction for the development of a junior schoolchild. Choosing this system of education, i.e., choosing a reflexive direction for the development of children, teachers and parents should be based primarily on their own system of values. Other educational systems prefer to build development based on other development potentials of children aged 6-12. Passing on the system of educational activity to teachers, we – psychologists and the authors of this system – ask them again and again to try it on with their life values ​​and weigh the full responsibility of choosing this risky, dooming reflexive direction of development for the child.

        Organization of students’ creative activities | Creative projects and works of students

        The process of organizing the creative activity of students at school is very important and relevant for a modern teacher and educational organization. Creative activity at school contributes to the development of personal properties in schoolchildren in unity with the professional skills of creative and inventive activity.

        See also:

        • musical and creative activities of children;
        • extracurricular activities of students;
        • creative activities of preschool children;
        • cognitive and creative activity of preschool children.

        Organization of creative activity in an educational institution solves the problem of developing the creative abilities of the younger generation.

        Creativity – a complex concept that includes the following components:

        • desire for knowledge;
        • the ability to learn new things;
        • quickness of mind;
        • the ability to find non-standard things in ordinary things, phenomena;
        • desire for discovery;
        • the ability to apply in practice, in life the acquired knowledge, experience;
        • free imagination;
        • fantasy and intuition, as a result of which inventions, discoveries, something new appear.

        Most of the studies in the field of organization of creative activity of students point to the high educational and upbringing effectiveness of the technical creativity of school students and, in this regard, the provision of broad links between scientific knowledge and practical activities.

        The main goal of organizing the creative activity of students is to develop the skills of creative activity in schoolchildren.

        The effectiveness of the development of creative abilities is due to the following conditions:

        1. Children have the necessary knowledge, skills and abilities;
        2. Correspondence of the student’s personal qualities with creative activity;
        3. The use of new technologies in the process of building student creative activity.

        In creative project activities with school students, a variety of methods, methods and forms of creative work should be used, while these forms of work can be effective both when used in the classroom and in extracurricular and project activities with children.

        Organization of creative work among children of primary school age is aimed at developing creativity.

        Creative thinking develops in a situation of searching and discovering something new while solving various problems. Situations of difficulty imply the emergence in younger students of such mental processes as analysis, synthesis, comparison, generalization, which are reflected in the formation of judgments, concepts, and conclusions.

        Thus, work aimed at the development of creativity in primary school students contributes to the development of the child’s creative abilities and the formation of project and creative skills in the future.

        Creative projects in grades 1 – 4 of the school can be offered in the form of almanacs, theatrical performances, sports games, works of fine or decorative art, etc.

        The product of such project activities will be exhibitions, wall newspapers, costumes, holidays, illustrations, fairy tales, etc. At this age, children begin to be able to take into account the conditions and laws of the world around them and the genre of the activity in which creativity takes place.

        Creative activity in primary school is carried out under the guidance of a teacher or parents, and children, within the framework of educational and extracurricular activities, implement their own ideas, conduct research, summarize and present the results.

        In the 5th – 8th grades of secondary school, the formation of the motive for satisfying creative needs, the search for ways to create the desired product takes place. Due to the fact that the middle level of the school, the main thing is to gain knowledge in “ basic subjects “, such aesthetic disciplines as music, fine arts and reading become secondary in the child’s perception and the child’s personal motive for the development of creative abilities is lost.

        Thus, the question of the organization of creative activity in the middle grades of school is relevant and aimed at preserving and developing students’ already accumulated knowledge in the field of art and culture and the desire for self-expression through the performance of creative tasks.

        During this period, children begin to realize the probabilistic nature of most patterns, so in their project activities they pay attention not only to obtaining the desired product, but also to the study of alternatives. Students learn to make a preliminary assessment of the situation and choose among different options and a variety of factors those that are most likely to be suitable for obtaining the desired result in the course of creative activity.

        For organization of creative activity in high school personal interest and student’s interest in the final product of their creativity is important. The motivation of the student and the ability to competently apply the knowledge and skills he has previously accumulated are the key points in the implementation of creative activity among high school students.

        Motivation – one of the key psychological concepts that explain the origins of personality activity. The desire of adolescents for self-realization stimulates creativity, in which the student can try on different roles and determine the range of his aspirations.

        In the process of organizing the creative activity of students, the teacher must observe:

        1. Compliance of the creative task with the interests of students;
        2. The focus of creative activity on the development of creative abilities of school students;
        3. Formation in schoolchildren of such necessary skills as: balance, responsibility, self-confidence.

        To organize the creative activity of students, the teacher must:

        1. Use a variety of teaching methods, including games, develop students’ flexibility of thinking, stimulate the processes of switching attention and search activity.
        2. Learn to reason, to approach problems from a non-standard point of view, to reflect on the solution of tasks.
        3. To teach children to draw their own conclusions, find new, original approaches, get interesting results, unusual solutions.
        4. In the process of developing students’ creative abilities, it is necessary to use active methods and forms of work.

        Among the types of creativity there are: scientific, technical, literary, musical, gaming, educational, domestic, professional, etc.

        The subject “ Technology ” provides greater opportunities for the development of creative abilities of schoolchildren than other academic disciplines.

        For example, the study of traditional folk art helps schoolchildren to understand the peculiarities of the artistic culture of their people, to comprehend the basics of creating works of art. Classes in artistic painting on wood and other types of applied arts bring up the aesthetic and artistic taste of children and form an idea of ​​​​future professional activity.

        One of the most effective ways to identify and develop a person’s creative abilities is the correct organization of school and out-of-school forms of artistic and aesthetic education.

        Classes in circles contribute to the development of children’s imagination, the formation of their artistic taste, and the early detection of creative abilities. The labor process allows you to learn the patterns of building a form, the beauty of details, the possibility of material and color.

        Research activity of junior schoolchildren

        Detailed description

        TRAINING PROGRAM FOR YOUNGER STUDENTS
        RESEARCH ACTIVITY

        The practice of using research teaching methods in the educational process of modern school is increasingly used. The teacher-innovator, already in elementary school, is increasingly striving to offer tasks that include children in an independent creative, research search.

        Children of primary school age are researchers by nature and take part in various research activities with great interest. The success of a study largely depends on its organization.

        Research activity contributes to the development of cognitive activity of schoolchildren, teaches them to think and make independent conclusions. The lack of fundamental knowledge sometimes does not allow children to correctly evaluate the result of their research, especially if the result is negative. The gentle help of the teacher here is necessary not only to find out the possible reasons for the failure, but also to convince the child not to be disappointed and continue the study.

        When organizing educational and research activities of younger students, it is necessary to follow the methodology. The problem posed and the topic outlined must be relevant to the child, the research work must be carried out by him voluntarily and be provided with the necessary equipment, tools and materials.

        The result of the research work and the main stage in the training of a young researcher is a presentation at a children’s conference. Unlike the “adult” conference, here it is necessary to create a “success situation” for each student. All work, regardless of its quality, must be praised so that children have a desire to continue research activities.

        The purpose of the program: transformation of the process of development of the intellectual and creative potential of the child’s personality by improving his research abilities in the process of self-development.

        Program objectives:

        • development of cognitive needs and abilities of younger students;
        • teaching children of primary school age the special knowledge necessary for independent research;
        • formation and development of the skills and abilities of research search in children of primary school age;
        • the formation of younger students and teachers of ideas about research learning as the leading method of learning activities.

        This program lasts 22 hours.

        The proposed distribution of hours is approximate, it can be adjusted depending on the level of development of children, their interests.

        Duration of lessons: 1st grade – 30 minutes, 2nd-4th grades – 40 minutes.

        The course material is based on the following concepts:

        The problem of research as a category suggests the study of the unknown in science: what is to be discovered, proved, studied from new positions.

        The research topic reflects the problem in its characteristic features. A successful, semantically clear formulation of the topic clarifies the problem, outlines the scope of the study, concretizes the main meaning, thereby creating the prerequisites for the success of the work as a whole.

        The relevance of the chosen topic justifies the need for research.

        The goal is formulated briefly and extremely precisely, in a semantic sense expressing the main thing that the researcher intends to do.

        The object of study is the area within which the study of the totality of connections, relationships and properties is being carried out as a source of information necessary for the study.

        The subject of research is more specific and includes only those connections and relationships that are subject to direct study in this work, it sets the boundaries of scientific research in each object. The subject is always studied within the framework of some object.

        Requirements for the level of mastering the content of the program

        • In the course of mastering the program, the cognitive needs of younger students will increase.
        • Own research practice will expand the horizons of the child, will allow to master the mechanism of self-acquisition of new knowledge.
        • In the course of the trainings for research abilities provided for by the program, special skills and abilities necessary in research search are developed.

        The main criteria are the desire and attempts to use research teaching methods in the main educational process and everyday practice of interacting with the world.
