First Aid NSC Home First Aid Article The Do's and Don'ts of Teaching Home Fire Safety by Jim Bowman Fires and burns are the second most common cause of death to children under 10, next to automobile crashes. That's why Battalion Chief Kevin Wiley, of the Oak Park, Ill., Fire Department, is a firm believer in teaching children about fire safety. A few years ago, a first-grader saved himself from a fire using the "stop, drop and roll" technique that Wiley taught him. The boy's shirt caught on fire as he sat near an open fireplace while on vacation. "He dropped and rolled on the cabin floor. It saved him," Wiley says. Fire Is Not Child's Play Children can be fascinated by fire. From the first-grader who sits too close to an open fireplace to a youth who unintentionally starts a fire, all kids need to be taught fire safety tips. Keith Patterson, director of public education for the Deerfield-Bannockburn, Ill., Fire Department, identifies and counsels juvenile fire-setters. Fire-setting, he says, is "correctable behavior." He offers parents the following advice: Do teach kids that fires and fire-making are for grown-ups. (Scouts are taught to make fires, but under supervision and with emphasis on safety procedures.)

42. Resources - Teaching Family When I teach family, I use the anthology as my main text and then For whateverit s worth, I just finished teaching Marriage and family Problems. http://newmedia.colorado.edu/~socwomen/resources/family.html

back to resources Teaching Sociology of the Family The following is a compilation of suggestions I received in response to my request for ideas for teaching sociology of family. It includes mostly text recommendations, but also some exercises and films. There are 16 entries. Note that I stated that I did not want to use a regular text book and was looking for some materials that would help me make soc. of family a little less problem-focused. Lisa Jones lisajoneswrites@cs.com * I use Carol Stack's book because it is a classic. A more updated version is Anne Roshelle's book with a similar title, "No More Kin," about kin networks in Puerto Rican families. Every semester I alter some of the books in the family seminar. In the past, I have used Linda Gordon's book on the history of domestic violence, "Heroes of Their Own Lives" and Patricia Zavella's book on Chicana women and their families. More recently, I have used Scott Coltrane's "Gender and Families," which is very good. * Judith Stacey's "Brave New Families Flux : Women on Sex, Work, Kids, Love, and Life in a Half-Changed World_, a new book by Peggy Orenstein (author of Schoolgirls), contains several chapters with stories about various parenting arrangements. Voices include mothers and fathers who are sharing parenting, single mothers, mothers who work outside the home, mothers who stay home with children, etc. Kris Montgomery, Coordinator Women's Resource Center/SAFE Peer Education Program Sonoma State University, 1801 E.

htmlAdWH('93212819', '728', '90'); Main Your CareerOther Living and Teaching in China: Marriage and Family Issues Should I Get Married in China? Let me preface my comments with this. Chinese-American marriages (or Russian-American marriages for that matter) can work. I just want to warn you about the huge pitfalls that await you if you choose to marry someone from China or another culture. Many people rush into marriage without thinking about the consequences. You need to be prepared for the eventuality that you may become romantically involved, so that, in the heat of emotion, you won't make a decision that you will regret for the rest of your life. Please, understand that my concerns are not based on race! It's the culture differences, not racial differences! My wife and I grew up in the same U.S. city and still had a lot of problems adjusting to marriage. To get an idea of the huge cultural differences between the U.S. and China that can destroy a marriage You must read this fascinating story of a Chinese-American marriage! Most Americans who go to China are single, and many are at the stage in life where they are on the lookout for a mate. Furthermore, it seems like China tends to attract many people who don't necessarily fit it in in America, or whatever their home country is. Many such people didn't have much luck in romance back home, and raring to go when someone shows interest in them in China.

Teaching Diverse Learners http://www.alliance.brown.edu/tdl/ Research states that home involvement with children's schools supports their achievement ( Epstein, 1995 ). Family involvement takes distinct forms for different communities, due to varied understandings of the roles that families play in school and the expectation for "involvement" as understood by school staff. Since other family members and individuals in communities often engage with schools on behalf of children, we recognize the need to expand the discussion beyond "parent" involvement. Research also demonstrates that schools benefit from families' funds of knowledge ( ). Therefore, it is important to forge relationships between families and teachers in their children's schools ( Valdes, 1996 ). The following information presents a basis for building family/teacher relationships by presenting facts and resources that educators of diverse learners need to know in order to promote communication between home and school. This exploration of family and community in education will focus on selected equity issues that influence family access to schools: Knowledge about schools Culture Language Social status in the larger community ...

Our continuing series of interviews with teachers throughout the country. Advertise with Commitment Chatrooms Message Boards Email ... Site Map Meet Tiffani Mugurussa, a kindergarten teacher at the John Reed Elementary School in Rohnert Park, California. Her advice to parents: "READ, READ, READ read to your child every day. Get involved. Visit the school, meet the teacher, find out what they are learning about. Don't just ask how was school today. Ask specific questions....If your child thinks you think school is important, they will think it is important too." Why did you become a teacher? As long as I can remember, I have wanted to be a teacher. My great grandmother was a teacher. I have always loved working with children. I couldn't see myself doing anything. else. I knew I wanted to work with children. I thought about Juvenile probation, but I wanted to reach kids before they got to that point in their life. Did you find it difficult securing a position? Yes, I had landed a few temp positions, but they were well temporary. I taught Kindergarten for a year, as a temp, but got pregnant that year and well, no one was looking to hire an 8.5 month pregnant woman for the following year. After that there seemed o be a freeze on hiring. I took a position at a private school for a year. Then when class size reduction came, I had several job offers. It was great to choose where I wanted to work.

Additional Family Involvement Teaching Case Resources Casebooks and individual teaching cases that focus primarily on family involvement issues are rare, however, many existing casebooks and case collections focusing on other issues have cases that address family involvement issues. The following is a sampling of published cases with family involvement content. Families, schools, and communities: Together for young children . Independence, KY: Delmar, Tomson Learning. Case 1 A teacher's philosophy on parent involvement and support conflicts with her colleagues' philosophies and creates tension in a pre-kindergarten. Case 2 A rookie teacher with strong belief in and preparation for family involvement begins teaching in an upper-middle-class community midway through the school year. She receives negative feedback from parents who are accustomed to traditional approaches to family involvement when she reaches out to them through letters and interest surveys. Case 3 A new teacher enters an urban school with a good reputation to find that his colleagues have more experience, but not the same level of preparation. This teacher's family involvement and early childhood education approaches are viewed negatively by staff and parents.

Resolving Issues at Johnson Elementary School Teaching Case Sylvia Sensiper Contents: Case narrative Discussion questions Instructor notes Case Narrative Johnson Elementary School In the heart of South Central Los Angeles, Johnson Elementary looked desolate to many outsiders. The school district had continued to put money into programs and projects, instead of facilities and grounds. Almost no grass, trees, or shrubbery dotted the bleak area, and the buildings were shabby. The surrounding neighborhoods were made up primarily of third-generation Mexican-Americans and recent immigrants from Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, and other Central American countries. The former were often completely fluent in both English and Spanish, while the latter spoke mostly Spanish. Johnson housed an active Parent Resource Center with a three-fold purpose. First, it provided educational services for parents and held both GED classes and ESL classes. The Center staff were also organizing a class in general parenting skills and a class for parents whose children had special needs. Second, the Center provided parents with brochures and booklets about various issues that were of interest to them, and maintained a lending library and a used clothing exchange. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, the Resource Center was a place where parents could just drop in to learn more about the teachers and school, either by chatting with the staff or with other parents who were there.

Fall 1996, Volume XII, Number 1 Family Law Classroom Exercises for Teaching Gender Issues [Editor's Note: Below are suggestions from some conferees who participated in the "Feminism and Family" workshop of the ABA "Families and Law" conference of April, 1996.] It is important to have students reflect on ways in which gender has shaped their lives, both positively and negatively. Therefore, men need to think of ways in which gender has both privileged and disadvantaged them. For women, the converse may be true. I use some of my own experiences, such as this one: I am alone in my house, have just gone to bed, and realize I left my windows open downstairs. I ask: what do I do? Women tend to respond that they would get up, go downstairs, and lock the windows. Men hardly understand the question. Men become aware that physical safety is of great concern to women. I then ask them to consider what this means. One thing it means is that women are more vulnerable than men. But it may also mean that we expect men to be "braver" than women. I might then ask men to relate experiences where they were expected to be brave. Were they? Did they feel pressured to act so? - Susan Apel, Vermont Law School
