Children Quotes

Children are unpredictable.  You never know what inconsistency they're going to catch you in next.  ~Franklin P. Jones


 You can learn many things from children. How much patience you have, for instance. ~Franklin P. Jones

Measurement

Everyone deserves a chance to learn and show their capability. Not all children learn the same or is on the same level in the school district. Testing can prove level their child is own and also show their skills. A lot of children don’t like testing but they have to be reminded not all tests are to affect them. I think that children ability to be measured individually. You have different people, race, sex, and language. Why wouldn’t you measure them individually? You have some fast learners and some slow learners but that doesn’t mean they are slow. Standardized tests are designed to enable us to compare the performance of students in a relatively efficient way(

Growing up to fast, grown and wouldn’t mind parents can lead to something you never want to hear. While growing up, someone that I was close to suffered many diseases to due to the lack of obedience. The diseases was not curable only could be treated. After she found out about the disease she thought people would get her information from her file at the school and spread her illness. Every day she would come to me crying and saying “only if I would have listened to my mother I wouldn’t be in the situation I’m in right now”.  

I’ve always heard about the disease AIDS coming from Africa So I decided to do my research on it. Some of the disease that’s in Africa comes from insects, hepatitis B, HIV and Rabies. Some children are born with these diseases. Traveling plays a part in the Diseases in Africa as well.

breatfeeding

 

Breastfeeding is the best source of milk for babies. It’s not processed its coming directly from the mom and you will be eating off of what she eats and that should be healthy eating. A lot of new mothers are beginning to breast feed. Personally, If I could have I would’ve love to breast fed my son. It’s not only healthy for the baby but also the mother. With the way technology is improving you have great pumps now to make breastfeeding easier, less painful and faster way to get milk out of breast. Also, with breast milk you can pump so much and freeze it for up to six months. Being that I wasn’t able to breastfeed, my baby is on similac advance and I don’t feel he gets all of the nutrients that he need because of his weight. I encourage all mothers to breast feed if you can.

birth experience

I can remember this like it was yesterday. October 23, 2012 at 3:44p.m. I gave birth to my first son. The entire 9 months of being pregnant was AWESOME. I enjoyed every moment and day of being pregnant. I was so afraid when my water broke at 5 a.m. I almost panic because I didn’t know what to do, and was afraid I would be in the hospital alone because I knew my husband had class and my mom was at work. Once my water broke, I walked around the house in circles basically trying to decided which way to go because bags wasn’t packed, it was cold outside and I was in shock and afraid. The arrival at the hospital wasn’t as bad as I thought but once I got connected to my ivs and begin taking the pain medicine my nervous calm down. Well you know when everything is going goof someone has to mess that up. My doctor was so mean and rude to me because I was in pain, crying and barely breathing. Lesson learned from that situation I don’t plan to deliver there again. I begin pushing and this was the hardest part to me. I had an epidural and only one some of my body was taking the medicine well.. Pushing, Pushing and Pushing my baby head finally came out but of course the doctor wasn’t there just the nurse so my husband and mom was holding my leg and I couldn’t feel it so I almost closed my legs with my baby head out but I didn’t. As I continued to push and push my baby out he had no response when he first came out the womb. My heart dropped, and I begin praying. My baby oxygen was low so they put him on oxygen and finally got a response. Also, my baby was air lifted to Jackson, MS the same night because his sugar was low. I hadn’t never seen him, touched him, held him or nothing and they come telling me he had to go my heart was broken into pieces. After all a day later, I got to my son and we stayed in the hospital for a week and came on home. Now he is 10 months and a healthy and active baby. Reasoning being that I wanted to discuss my birthing was because this is my first child and I was so excited for me and my family.

In Germany, The biggest baby was born and no c section was needed. I applaud her for being able to push out an 13 pound baby. This isn’t a shocking to me because I have a sister who baby was 11 pound but she had to have an c section. Being that a 15 pound baby was delivered naturally is shocking to me because you have all type of women that want children and can’t get them.

Thanks for the Support

First time ever using a Blog was a success and I look forward to using it in the future. The interaction among colleagues was awesome. Never thought I would get actual feedback from colleagues but I actually did and it was great. I've learned so much from them and I wish nothing but the best as each and everyone prosper in the Early Childhood field.

Code of Ethic

Listed below you will find three ideals that was founded in the NAEYC code of ethics that interest me most. The reason why these three were selected is because I believe in helping children. Being a foster child can be hard so I will make sure that the child is safe and also up to date physically, emotionally and mentally. Also, I realize that not all children are the same or come from the same cultural. I will respect that by recognizing their cultural throughout different ways/activities. I will encourage all to get involved in the community and interact because it’s different ways to network in the world and being a people person is one.

I-1.5—To create and maintain safe and healthy settings that foster children’s social, emotional, cognitive, and Physical development and that respect their dignity and their contributions.

 

I-1.10—To ensure that each child’s culture, language, ethnicity, and family structure are recognized and Valued in the program.

I-2.9—To participate in building support networks for families by providing them with opportunities to interact with program staff, other families, community resources, and professional services.

My mom has been by my side through it all and now that Im grown and has a family she's still by my side. There where times when I felt like giving up but after talking to GOD, and my mom  giving up wasn't an option anymore. My mom has always showed me unconditionally love and support. In my mom voice," A mother Job is never done". Thanks Mom for being by my side and taking care of me. I love you for all that you has done, doing and will do. Sign, Your Baby Girl Chaundrea.

Photo of self, story about a child that touched your heart, and quote that meaningful to me

Photo of Self

The photo below was taken December 15, 2012. On this picture I was prepared to go walk across the stage. This day was very important to me because I received my Bachelors of Science on this day.

 

Story about a child that touched your heart

 

 September 2012 I begin my intern and became attached to my students. Well at the time I was 8 months pregnant and it started getting rough due to the fact  I was tired all the time and also hot. Nevertheless I had tons of fluid on my body so you can only imagine. Well `I had one student whose mom was pregnant and I guess she was having the same symptoms. My student  came to school one Monday morning and leaned on my shoulder and said Mrs. Chaundrea, I've been praying for you and also the baby. I just want you and my mommie to have healthy babies. He said I know it can be rough but you Can do it. I tell this story to many people's because it was amazing to hear these words from a 2 year old. Then on, he continued to tell me every Monday Mrs. Chaundrea I've been praying for you. This is something that will stick with me forever because praying doesn't have a age on it but to hear this from a 2 year old was totally unexpected.

 

Meaningful quote

 

 The only thing worth stealing is a kiss from a sleeping child. : Joe Houldsworth

I fell in love with this quote because I had my first born October 23, 2012 and being a mother is the BEST joy alive. Stealing kisses from the little one while sleeping is the cutest thing. Stealing is a crime but not stealing kisses from your sleeping child.
