The reason why is that she loves to hang out with my family talk to them and see us all together. She is my youngest cousin on my father's side of the family.
In the book, it says "In 2019, families made up roughly 30 percent of the homeless population on any given night. (150)" I think my cousin and I are very grateful to have a family and homes to live in, but we do feel bad for those who don't have these things we have.

In her first grade year, her teacher did a Candyland game that was a large version of it that was made around the classroom with brakes where they had brains to calm down a little bit.

The reason the teacher did this was to help them learn math but also have fun while doing it.
In the book, it says "By 5 years of age, they understand that if they are sad about something, they can try to think about something else or decide they don’t want something anymore to feel better. (156)" I believe that is true because when my cousin gets sad she listens to music or does something else to help herself calm down.]]> 2023-03-01 02:54:36 UTC https://padlet.com/awinters47/8vu19mzza4gok36a/wish/2498901302 awinters47 https://padlet.com/awinters47/8vu19mzza4gok36a/wish/2498902406 7 years old (In second grade)

Her teacher had them earn points for eight points story the eight she had searched they could spend up their points to get rewards or even maybe Coloring materials or things of supplies for their classes.

My cousin says that she learned a lot from this for a real-life of how to spend money.
In the book, it says "By second grade, children’s stories become longer and more complex. (210)" This relates a lot with how Carma tells me or her family about her day at school.]]> 2023-03-01 02:55:50 UTC https://padlet.com/awinters47/8vu19mzza4gok36a/wish/2498902406 awinters47 https://padlet.com/awinters47/8vu19mzza4gok36a/wish/2498903313 8 years old (In third grade)

She learned to play the ukulele in her music class.

She loved learning how to play the ukulele because she loves learning anything about music. Carma plays music also to help when she is sad about her parents.
In the book, it says "Divorce can also harm adolescents’ relationship with their father. (276)" This relates to why my cousin plays music or plays games when her father does want to see her anymore.

She learned in her art class how to paint with only three colors with a Q-tip for each color.

She believes that her teacher did this so that they would learn how to use their imagination to be more creative in their writing or even in their artwork. In the book, it says "Sense of belonging to a loved one or to friends and companions. (336)" This statement is true because being with friends or family does give children a sense of belonging.]]> 2023-03-01 02:58:15 UTC https://padlet.com/awinters47/8vu19mzza4gok36a/wish/2498904430 awinters47 https://padlet.com/awinters47/8vu19mzza4gok36a/wish/2498905753 10 years old (In fifth grade)

In her fifth grade year, her teacher for English had them have a journal where she would pick a prompt for them to write About in their journal.

My cousin thought it was a great thing because she made them really imagine their old lives or even learn more about themselves by doing these writing prompts and their journals. In the book, it says "Social competence also matters and contributes to an understanding of thoughts and emotions. (157)" I belive this statement from the book is true because Social competence does matter to children to help them develop in their classes and in their life.]]> 2023-03-01 02:59:56 UTC https://padlet.com/awinters47/8vu19mzza4gok36a/wish/2498905753 awinters47 https://padlet.com/awinters47/8vu19mzza4gok36a/wish/2498907745 11 years old (In sixth grade)

She learned Orchestra in her sixth-grade year.
Reasoning again for learning this was because she really does love music. In the book, it says "People [are] motivated to resolve the issues that [emerge] during development. (13)" This statement from the book is true and means that teachers and families of the children should support their kids and help them with their development through their life as young children and maybe a little guidance when there in high school or college.]]> 2023-03-01 03:02:10 UTC https://padlet.com/awinters47/8vu19mzza4gok36a/wish/2498907745 awinters47 https://padlet.com/awinters47/8vu19mzza4gok36a/wish/2498908483 I believe her development has come a very long way she is a very intelligent little girl. She is very hard-working. And I love that about her especially with her being part of my family but that is not the main reason I just want her to live her life to her full potential.]]> 2023-03-01 03:03:00 UTC https://padlet.com/awinters47/8vu19mzza4gok36a/wish/2498908483 awinters47 https://padlet.com/awinters47/8vu19mzza4gok36a/wish/2498909234 When I asked her what her future dreams this was her answer was “to become a singer.”

The only thing I can give her rice for that for her future life that she wants is just keep doing what she does work hard to our dip and learn all she can relating to music.
In the book, it says "If trust predominates, as it should, children develop hope: believe they can fulfill their needs and obtain their desires. (150)" I believe that is true in a good way because if the child doesn't develop hope in themselves they will never reach their dream for their future dreams.]]> 2023-03-01 03:04:00 UTC https://padlet.com/awinters47/8vu19mzza4gok36a/wish/2498909234 awinters47 https://padlet.com/awinters47/8vu19mzza4gok36a/wish/2503079772 Humor: When Carma is with her friends or family she is always laughing and having fun, but she still learns to be respectful to all that is around her.
Empathy: Is always taught to our family because we want members of our family to treat people the way they want to be treated.
In the book, it says "A young researcher sat across from 6-year-old Schi. "What is memory?" he asked Schi, pen in hand ready to take note. (153)" In the book that person answered, "When you remember something. (153)" I believe memory also relates to if it's a good memory (with laughter) or bad memory (with anger or sadness), but mainly relates to how children develop or how their living environment is like.]]> 2023-03-03 20:07:44 UTC https://padlet.com/awinters47/8vu19mzza4gok36a/wish/2503079772 awinters47 https://padlet.com/awinters47/8vu19mzza4gok36a/wish/2503086941 In my cousin's life so far she has some trouble with her classmates staying quiet for the teacher to speak and for her to hear her teacher teach the lesson. In the book, it says "Piaget maintained that preoperational children cannot yet reason logically about cause and effect. (153)" This relates to what is happening in this classroom with my cousin in it because the parents of these kids and the teacher of these classrooms are not maintaining balance and parents didn't teach their kids to listen or behave themselves.]]> 2023-03-03 20:16:27 UTC https://padlet.com/awinters47/8vu19mzza4gok36a/wish/2503086941 awinters47 https://padlet.com/awinters47/8vu19mzza4gok36a/wish/2503091434 Kids between the ages of 5 to 12 should know how to listen and behave themselves by their parents teaching them by example. This way the teachers can help them understand themselves better in their classes. If the parents don't help in the development of their kids they will never understand what they are doing right or wrong in their lives and in their futures.]]> 2023-03-03 20:22:11 UTC https://padlet.com/awinters47/8vu19mzza4gok36a/wish/2503091434
