Book excerpt: This straightforward and inspiring book takes readers into schools where educators believe—and prove—that all children, even those considered “hard-to-teach,” can learn to high standards.

Educators who teach in Title 1 or affluent school districts may want to share these strategies at a parent conference night.

"Academic success truly begins at an early age. My hope is that parents and particularly those who may be facing insurmountable odds will use these proven strategies to enable their young children to achieve phenomenal academic success.

But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

Download or read book Who's Defining Education for Your Child? written by Richard Williams and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2014-12-09 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book every African American parent should have. It points out how African American parents can build educational success for their child in spite of the negative effects of history and tradition. It outlines the steps necessary for parents to counter these effects. This book provides solutions by helping frame a strong definition of education, as well as how to create a home environment to support the definition. This is a timeless parental involvement tool which should benefit any parent and child who follows the advice. Randy Brown, Parent, Education Advocate in Cobb County Georgia Who's Defining Education for Your Child compiles a list of proven and practical suggestions, anchored in a timeless principle that can be easily implemented by parents today, if they are committed to developing a strong "mindset" for education in themselves and in their children. Dr. Lolethia Kibble, Title II Specialist, Virginia Department of Education Dr. and Mrs. Williams have created a profound piece of literature that is a "wake up call" to all stakeholders in the educational process of our African American students. They have set the platform for both much needed discussion and reform, in the way we value, relate to, and understand education. I have been inspired by the truths presented in this book, and will certainly use it as a springboard as to how I view the "teacher/learner" cultural and climate in my classroom. Nadine Lucate Pierre, Teacher In order to ensure that students receive the educational opportunities that prepare them for the challenges of the 21st century, parents must motivate their children to engage in learning so they can achieve school success. "Who's Defining Education for Your Child?" provides some concrete strategies for parents to help address the issues that short circuit the academic success of African American youth and it illustrates a compelling story for why you can't just let others define educational experiences for your child. Dr. Kimberly Matier, Deputy Chief Academic Officer, Minneapolis Minnesota

Book excerpt: It is the thesis of this provocative book that the deteriorating state of America's public school system is actually a reflection of the problems in our culture and society. In "Waiting For A Miracle," James P. Comer M.D., Maurice Falk Professor of Child Psychiatry at the Yale University Child Study Center and the author of Maggie's American Dream, and co-author of Raising Black Children, outlines the cause of these afflictions and presents an inspiring paradigm for a new way of thinking and acting with regard to children and family.At the root of the problem, he states, is a social failure to make a commitment to families, and to community and child development.Using many examples from his personal experience of growing up poor, and from more than thirty years of community involvement, Comer argues that schools can be the most important instrument of change in a society. He spells out how private, public and non-profit sectors can collaborate to enable children, families, and communities to survive and thrive.

Download or read book Transforming the Workforce for Children Birth Through Age 8 written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2015-07-23 with total page 706 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children are already learning at birth, and they develop and learn at a rapid pace in their early years. This provides a critical foundation for lifelong progress, and the adults who provide for the care and the education of young children bear a great responsibility for their health, development, and learning. Despite the fact that they share the same objective - to nurture young children and secure their future success - the various practitioners who contribute to the care and the education of children from birth through age 8 are not acknowledged as a workforce unified by the common knowledge and competencies needed to do their jobs well. Transforming the Workforce for Children Birth Through Age 8 explores the science of child development, particularly looking at implications for the professionals who work with children. This report examines the current capacities and practices of the workforce, the settings in which they work, the policies and infrastructure that set qualifications and provide professional learning, and the government agencies and other funders who support and oversee these systems. This book then makes recommendations to improve the quality of professional practice and the practice environment for care and education professionals. These detailed recommendations create a blueprint for action that builds on a unifying foundation of child development and early learning, shared knowledge and competencies for care and education professionals, and principles for effective professional learning. Young children thrive and learn best when they have secure, positive relationships with adults who are knowledgeable about how to support their development and learning and are responsive to their individual progress. Transforming the Workforce for Children Birth Through Age 8 offers guidance on system changes to improve the quality of professional practice, specific actions to improve professional learning systems and workforce development, and research to continue to build the knowledge base in ways that will directly advance and inform future actions. The recommendations of this book provide an opportunity to improve the quality of the care and the education that children receive, and ultimately improve outcomes for children.

It also requires knowledge of culturally responsive practices, such as collaborating with and learning from caregivers, using cultural referents, enacting critical and transformative literacy practices, and seeing the capacities of English Language Learners and children who speak African American Language.
