The other three books of the series is geared towards developing other specific aspects of your child's brain and intellectual capacities. When using these workbooks, we suggest that teachers or parents read aloud the questions and encourage the child to explain his or her reasoning for each answer. Teachers and parents should also lead the child to think beyond the question and to consider how the answers would change accordingly if the questions were altered slightly. Before the age of 5, children are most susceptible to learning because their brains are growing and developing rapidly. Early educational experiences are vital to every child's life, and we at Pi For Kids Inc. aspire to play a role in this journey that all children must take.

Download or read book Right Brain Education written by Pamela Sue Hickein and published by . This book was released on 2019-03-04 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 10th Anniversary Edition - Celebrating 30 years of success with a truly holistic form of early childhood education that enriches both sides of the brain while honoring the heart. Right Brain Education is an exciting learning method developed to help utilize both sides of the brain - the logical left brain and the (generally under-utilized) creative right brain. At a time when our attention is on testing results, No Child Left Behind, budget deficits, teacher layoffs, and poor student performance, we are asked by Pamela to reconsider how different learning could be if we started with the heart and moved on from there. This book describes Pamela's educational experimentations over a 30-year period in which she has made discoveries that take us farther into new dimensions of teaching and learning that engage the whole brain, both conscious and unconscious.Children and adults alike can learn how to enhance the abilities of the right side of the brain, nurturing one's natural photographic memory and speed-learning capabilities, so that the "whole brain" is equally engaged. When both sides of the brain are used, a person's true genius can shine! Hickein's heart-based approach to right-brain learning consists of two main programs, which correspond to two distinct stages of development: TweedleWink early learning program (ages 0-6) and Wink (ages 6 +) to enhance photographic memory, enabling speed-learning and more.This EXPANDED version includes over 100 additional pages, including: updated brain research, a how-to guide for each of the 12 TweedleWink techniques, DIY material ideas, Wink right brain exercises (yes, right in the book!), age-by-age lesson charts and easy-to-follow guides.

In straightforward language, this book explains how to use the innovative "Learning Styles Inventory" to test for a right-brained learning style; help an ADD child master spelling—and build confidence—by committing complicated words to visual memory; tap an ADD kid's amazing speed-reading abilities by stressing sight recognition and scanning rather than phonics; access the child's capacity to solve math problems of increasing, often astonishing complexity—without pen or paper; capitalize on the "writing and weaning" technique to help the child turn mental images into written words; and win over teachers and principals to the right-brained approach the ADD child thrives on. For parents who have longed to help their ADD child quickly and directly, Freed and Parsons's approach is nothing short of revolutionary. This is the first book to offer them reason for hope and a clear strategy for enabling their child to blossom.

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 587 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.

Download or read book Working Memory Capacity written by Nelson Cowan and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2016-04-14 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea of one's memory "filling up" is a humorous misconception of how memory in general is thought to work; it actually has no capacity limit. However, the idea of a "full brain" makes more sense with reference to working memory, which is the limited amount of information a person can hold temporarily in an especially accessible form for use in the completion of almost any challenging cognitive task. This groundbreaking book explains the evidence supporting Cowan's theoretical proposal about working memory capacity, and compares it to competing perspectives. Cognitive psychologists profoundly disagree on how working memory is limited: whether by the number of units that can be retained (and, if so, what kind of units and how many), the types of interfering material, the time that has elapsed, some combination of these mechanisms, or none of them. The book assesses these hypotheses and examines explanations of why capacity limits occur, including vivid biological, cognitive, and evolutionary accounts. The book concludes with a discussion of the practical importance of capacity limits in daily life. This 10th anniversary Classic Edition will continue to be accessible to a wide range of readers and serve as an invaluable reference for all memory researchers.
