    Extractions: Q. I teach a preschool reading program. Many parents ask me, "Isn't that what kindergarten is for?" How do I respond to parents' accusations that I'm "over-preparing" their children for first grade? A. I'm very disturbed about preschool programs that emphasize traditional academic learning that is more along the lines of kindergarten or first grade curricula. Indeed, many parents choose such academically-oriented preschools in the hopes that their kids will get a "leg up" on the kindergarten/first grade "competition." Early childhood development experts maintain that preschools should be caring, stimulating, child-centered environments dedicated to the overall social and emotional growth of young children. Teaching reading to preschool kids isn't on their or my developmental priorities list, especially since all kids are hard-wired on an individualized basis to learn something as complex as reading. Teachers and parents have created a demand for kindergartens to teach what first grades used to do and for preschools to become kindergartens. I deplore this shift. Read David Elkind's classic, The Hurried Child for an expanded, brilliant exploration of the unnatural "speeding up" of childhood.

But researchers have told us that children can begin to learn reading and writing at home, long before they go to school.

    Extractions: Please update your bookmark for this page to http://www.illinoishouse.org/a08.htm Preschool Education There are probably as many approaches to educating preschool-aged children as there are preschool families everything from unschooling to rigidly structured, intensively academic, strictly curriculum-based instruction. But you want the best approach, right? Alack and alas! There is no guaranteed, sure-fire approach to successful preschool education. In truth, the very definition of "success" (i.e., the desired mixture of language, numerical, cognitive, artistic, musical, gymnastic, social, emotional, spiritual, etc.! achievement) varies from one family to the next and "best" depends on your child's needs, interests, and abilities as well as your own desires, philosophies, strengths and weaknesses, and resources. (And, a word of warning any document that you read on this subject, including the one you are currently reading, will be biased by the author(s)' own attitudes and beliefs. Below are some tips to get you started: Relax! Legally, there are no requirements. Your child does not have to be in school until eons from now at the ripe old age of seven (see Illinois Annotated Code Section 26-1 (1981)). Socially, even with the proliferation of preschool programs today, it is quite acceptable to do absolutely nothing formal in the way of preschool education for your child. You might well imagine that preschool programs exist because of some proven advantage that such programming provides a child, but the truth is that two of the major factors in the current rise of preschool education in this country have little to do with their effectiveness for children such as yours who are growing up in what are probably intellectually stimulating environments (if you are concerned enough to be reading this).

    Extractions: Home Educator's Family Times Homeschool Support Network June 2001 Volume 9, No. 3 Current Issue Advertising Home Back Issues ... Great Books By Valerie Bendt It is with some reservations that I use the word preschool in this article. The term presupposes two things: that there is a specific time at which education begins - 'pre' and that there is a specific place where education transpires - 'school.' However, I believe that education is a lifelong endeavor, and begins at birth, or possibly even before, as the child learns through many of his senses while yet in the womb. I also believe that while the entire creation is given to us as a place of learning, the best environment is a loving, caring home. So, in using the word preschool in this article I will borrow a commonly used term meaning the time prior to that where society believes we should send our children out of the home to 'school' to get an education. Educational psychologists claim that more than half of a child's learning occurs during his first few years. These are important formative years that should not be neglected. But how do we teach our 'preschooler' or entertain him while teaching our older children. It is important that our 'preschooler' does not feel he is a burden or in the way. I know this is often difficult, because we do not have perfect children. My oldest daughter recently reminded me about the measures that we had to take to keep my son, Raymond, out of trouble during his preschool years.

    Extractions: Literacy Standards for Preschool Learners Elena Bodrova, Deborah J. Leong, and Diane E. Paynter In recent years, major studies ( Why Children Can't Read, To support early literacy, school districts, state agencies, and national organizations are setting early literacy standards. Accountability for teaching literacy in early childhood classrooms will likely grow stronger rather than weaker. But the path toward implementing literacy standards in these classrooms will present challenges that are quite different from those in the higher grades. First, defining literacy in preschool and kindergarten requires more than adding "the student begins to . . ." to literacy standards borrowed from higher grades. At these early levels, the precursors of successful reading and writing often are not even called reading and writing. A young child's ability to draw and represent actions symbolically in dramatic play, for example, is not writing at all, but it is an important step in early literacy development. Second, standards implementation requires a redefinition of the early childhood teacher's role in literacy instruction. Although the importance of setting the proper environment and providing opportunities for children to learn will continue to be essential, teachers may find their role broadening to include guiding and even directing learning, a role that many view with a certain wariness. With good reason, early childhood teachers are concerned about trading practices that contribute to the long-term growth and development of young children for the short-lived success of teaching narrowly defined literacy skills.

    Extractions: PRESCHOOLERS Three and four-year-old children are often called preschoolers. Preschool children are making developmental strides and express an interest in the world around them. They want to touch, taste, smell, hear, and test things for themselves. They are eager to learn. They learn by experiencing and by doing. Preschoolers learn from their play. They are busy developing skills, using language, and struggling to gain inner control. Fears often develop during the preschool years. Common fears include new places and experiences and separation from parents and other important people. You can expect the preschool child to test you over and over again, to use profanity and other forbidden words, and to act very silly. Preschoolers may still have trouble getting along with other children, and sharing may still be difficult. Because of their developing imaginations and rich fantasy lives, they may have trouble telling fantasy from reality. They may also talk about imaginary friends. Preschoolers need clear and simple rules so that they know the boundaries of acceptable behavior.

Proceedings from the 2nd International Symposium on Human Behaivour in Fire, March 26-28, 2001. Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, Massachusetts. SUMMARY Each year in the United States, an estimated 700 children aged five and under die in home fires. Representing 20 percent of the fire deaths each year, this age group has a fire risk that is double the national average. Children playing with matches and lighters and other fire sources started about 91,810 fires per year from 1993 through 1997, which resulted in an estimated 338 deaths and 2,624 injuries each year. Preschool children are the most frequent victims of fires started by children playing with matches or lighters. To address the problem of fire deaths among young children

I don't know if this news is still current, since there's been a lot of changes at the Henson Company since January. But shows in development are always a roll of the dice anyway, so here it is. ] Jim Henson Television has decided to give the world an inside look into what made Kermit the reptile he is today. Jim Henson's Frog School is a live action/Muppet preschool comedy (with some short animated segments) that centers around Kermie's adolescent years at Frog School, where his education was based on an ancient frog philosophy stressing virtue and responsibility for one's actions towards others and the environment. Jim Henson's daughter Lisa will serve as executive producer on the 26 x half-hour series, which is budgeted at between $350,000 and $400,000 per episode. Animated sequences illustrate fables and myths from around the world that are used to teach the reptilian students about life outside the swamp. The project is part of a new Henson curriculum focus guided by an educational advisory board established to help the company follow through on its assertion that TV can change people's lives, says Juliet Blake, president of Jim Henson Television US. Henson is hoping to carve a niche with preschool shows that tackle school readiness, Blake explains, from both an emotional and curriculum perspective. She likens
