    I like the quotes that you posted as well as the additional resources. Scholastic does have a lot of resources available to teachers.

    Scholastic has been a credible and enriching source for teachers and students for a long time. I've always been a fan of the Scholastic book fairs at my children's schools and those at my own school when I was a child.

CHILD DEVELOPMENT AND PUBLIC HEALTH

SIDS SUDDEN INFANT DEATH SYNDROME Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) is the sudden, unexplained death of an infant younger than one year old. Some people call SIDS "crib death" because many babies who die of SIDS are found in their cribs. SIDS is the leading cause of death in children between one month and one year old. Most SIDS deaths occur when babies are between one month and four months old. Premature babies, boys, African Americans, and American Indian/Alaska Native infants have a higher risk of SIDS. Although health care professionals don't know what causes SIDS, they do know ways to reduce the risk. These include: This information is meaningful to me because so many people are not even aware SIDS. It is so important that families be educated on the safe sleep habits when it comes to their infant. Compared to rates in other developed countries, the U.S. SIDS rate remains high. For example, in 2005, the U.S. rate ranked second...

My Connections to Play

QUOTES THAT SUMMARIZE WHAT PLAY REPRESENTED FOR ME AS A CHILD PICTURES OF ESSENTIAL    PLAY ITEMS I ENJOYED    AS A CHILD As I was growing up, playing was a way of life. My mother encouraged play and so did the entire neighborhood. I remember vividly how on the weekends we would get together and ride our bikes from one block to the next. I remember jumping rope day in and day out. The weekends we looked forward to. Groups of friends would get together to ride the bus to Greenville to go to Rollerworld. Rollerworld was the place where we would meet people from another town and maybe become friends.  Play was considered a way of connecting with one another. Today play is so much different from the way I engaged as a child. Technology has taken over the way our children communicate with each other. Even as I look at my 13-year-old son and compare his way of communicating, for him he mostly engages his peers using a cell phone and video game...

CHILD BIRTH IN YOUR LIFE AND AROUND YOU

Image
I was extremely scared of childbirth. I DO NOT handle pain well at all. I had been fortunate enough to avoid any kind of surgery or stitches. I cry every time I get a needle. My entire pregnancy I heard my doctor tell my mom because of my age I would have a C-section. My mother would respond, "I promise you everything is going to be okay." Then I would proceed to tell her just how scared I was, but I was determined to get through the pregnancy. My childbirth experience began at the early age of 15. I had no idea my life would change so drastically. August 23, 1993 was the day I gave birth to my first child. I remember going through the hospital doors and up to labor and delivery. I was just a child myself and was about to experience a life changing event. I got moved into my room and my induction got started. I, amazingly, only shed a few tears after they finally managed to get the IV into my hand. They started the meds to induce labor and I felt fine. The contractions...
