Language And Literacy Development

June 9, 2023/in Uncategorized /by SK

Oral language and literacy development can be affected by physical health and ability, cultural characteristics, and socioeconomic factors, among other things. Students with difficulties in these areas often do not follow the typical rate of oral language and literacy development that other children do. To plan effective instruction, special education teachers must understand the typical literacy development of students across grade level bands, as well as their variations, in order to meet the needs of all students.

Design a 10‐15 slide digital presentation describing typical language development, and factors that can influence that development, for each of the following grade level bands: Kindergarten, Grades 1‐3, Grades 4‐6, and Grades 7‐8. Be sure to include a title slide, reference slide, and presenter’s notes.

Within your presentation, address the following:

Identify typical language and literacy development.
Analyze how oral language development influences literacy and academic achievement.
Summarize how various factors (physical health and ability, cultural characteristics, socioeconomic factors, etc.) can influence language and literacy development within K‐8 grade levels.

Support your work with 3‐5 scholarly resources.

Health Care Through the Years

Date	Event and Significance
1870-1889	In order to keep their employees healthy and able to work, employers began to provide employee health care. Companies in several industries, including mining, lumber, and railroads, developed group industrial clinics with plans that prepaid doctors a fixed monthly fee to provide medical care to employees for industrial accidents and common illnesses. This increased the availability of care and also gave the employees less expensive, higher-quality care than they could afford on their own. While it was not health care as we know it, this set the stage for companies becoming involved in the well-being of their employees.

RESPOND TO THE NEXT TWO STUDENT

Latonia post

I will begin to utilize the math skills that I learned this week at work to give myself a better concept of my productivity. This is usually something that management is responsible for, but if I start to keep count of my own productivity on the spreadsheets that I work on a daily basis, I will be better able to present the math which shows my achievements, so when it comes time for annual review and I will better position myself for a decent raise. It has been quite a long time since I have taken a math course, but this past week has given me a new outlook, even though I was never great in math. The Show What You Know diagnostic was something that I was really not prepared for and opened my eyes to the challenge I face in this class ahead. Math is a part of everyday living, from managing checking and savings accounts, calculating bills and managing a budget, and putting a percentage up in a retirement fund and so forth. So, I realize that even though we make think we don’t use math in our daily living, we do rely on math to maintain our daily, weekly, and our monthly needs and so on, and to plan for the near and distant future.

In my everyday life, i feel I use math quite a bit. I cook, budget my checkbook, figure out how many plate of food I need to prepare and I help my son with his homework. I also am a Retail Sales Associate, so I use math quite a bit. I figure sales tax estimates, prepare quotes, and figure my commissions on sales. I estimate and gather bills, while trying to figure what has changed on a customers bill when needed, we count every SIM card, and use math on inventory. I also use math when I do makeup, my passion. I use it by trying to create symmetry with my face. As the text suggests, math can promote creativity where allowed. I Guess I use arithmetic, algebra, probability, statistics and calculus in my daily life.
