Unit # and Title: Unit 1 Personal Development

Case Study level and title: Elementary School: Team

· Connections

· 1. The different parenting styles can affect how students act in the classroom.

· 2. Family issues and divorce can often affect students who have emotional problems and struggle, causing lousy behavior.

· 3. Students often find friendship where they belong and sometimes have problems isolating themselves from friends and family

· 4. I have seen students act out if their parents are not there for them, especially if they are working long hours and not paying attention to their children.

· 5. This can lead to poor performance and academic.

· Module # and Title

· Reflect & Evaluate Responses

· 1. Kashi recently relocated to a new school and neighborhood; her parents divorced. Being the only African American in first grade, she must establish new acquaintances. Bronfenbrenner's bioecological theory states that a child's relationships with their parents, teachers, schools, and neighborhoods can affect their development.

· 2. Mary, Patricia's mother, seems to be an authoritarian parent. She is involved with her child on an emotional level and establishes boundaries in addition to having rules.

· 3. Since her parents are separated, Kashi probably spends more time with one parent than the other. Kashi could have trouble adjusting at school if family discord between the parents. Kashi's academic performance may also suffer if the family's financial situation has altered.

· 4. In my opinion, Kashi's term "team" use alludes to friends and peers who hang out together. They could be a "normal" or "popular" peer group member.

· 5. I don't believe Bill can be classified as a bully based on this one case study and encounter. It appears that both lads are acting cruelly toward one another. I would be even more confident that Bill is a bully if similar incidents included other pupils happened frequently. It's hard to rate it just on this one instance. I believe the teacher should keep a careful eye on the students in the future to determine if bullying occurs.

· 6. In both instances, Ms. Barone, in my opinion, intervenes appropriately, but she also continues the conversation with the boys. Because boys are more inclined to act out physically and aggressively than girls, she does this to ensure.
