This is the additional resource from Week 6 that I would recommend for those interested in child development and the educational policies that are put in place based on scientific studies surrounding this topic:
Pinto, Kristina. (2007). Growing up Young: The Relationship between Childhood Stress and Coping with Early Puberty. The Journal of Early Adolescence. 27:4, 509.
Below are a few other resources that I came across while looking through the Walden library database and the Internet. The Week 5 resources are listed at the bottom of the page as well.

The following is an article I came across on the ProQuest database. It talks about the importance for young boys to develop their language skills as toddlers to help them also develop their self-control.
Pediatrics; Building language skills more critical for boys than girls
Two books that I know our teachers have peeked through every once in a while are written by Maryln Appelbaum that I thought maybe someone else might like to check out.
Appelbaum, Maryln. (2009). How to Handle Hard-to-Handle Preschoolers. Corwin Press: Thousand Oaks.
Appelbaum, Maryln. (2006). 167 Startegies for Excellence Reach, Teach, and Motivate Difficult and Defiant Children. Appelbaum Publishing: Sugar Land.
The last resource is an website that I came across whie doing a general search for "child care support." This resource is a terrific way for families to located child care centers in their area that best fit what they're looking for in a program, using referrals for providers, licensing and registration rules, and Keystone Stars information for assistance:
Your Program resource is a great tool for parents and new daycare owners. They both can make comparisons to see which program is going to better to meet the needs of their families. The owner can see what the community is offering so that they too can offer the same things or more. Not to mention it will be more convenient to find the information by clicking on a mouse, rather than driving from one place to another.
ReplyDeleteCaitlin,
ReplyDeleteGreat resources you have listed! I have not heard of the book "how to handle hard to handle preschoolers" so I am going to check that one out! Thanks for the info!
Most of the referrals I get at work for developmental disabilities also ask for help with behavior management. Marilyn Applebaum workshops are also fun, funny, and informative. Thanks for the reminder about her work.
