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.)

The National Education Goals Forums Gifted Children Related Articles How Important Is Homework? Helping Your Child Succeed in School Foreword Families play a vital role in educating America's children. What families do is more important to student success than whether they are rich or poor, whether parents have finished high school or not, or whether children are in elementary, junior high, or high school. Yet, for all that common sense and research tell us, family involvement often remains neglected in the debate about American school reform. To focus more attention on this important subject, the U.S. Congress recently added to an initial list of six National Education Goals another that states: Every school will promote partnerships that will increase parental involvement and participation in promoting the social, emotional, and academic growth of children.

You know how sometimes you go along with something because, even though it obviously isn't perfect, it seems to be headed in the right general direction? And as time goes on, it gets less and less perfect, but you carry on being a fellow-traveller because ... well, what else is there to do? And then, things get sillier and sillier until you find yourself waking up in the middle of the night thinking, 'How, in the name of sanity, did I get mixed up in all this? I've got to bail out.

Mark them 1st choice, 2nd choice and 3rd choice. (If you already have a western name that you like and want, use that as your 1st choice.) (a) Include Mr. or Ms so I will know if this name is for a boy or a girl! :-) (b) Be sure to consider how each name you choose sounds in front of your pinyin one-syllable family name. Your western name will often appear with your family name like that and you don't want an awkward combination. Note, just as with my own name, it is correct to say - Peter - Mr. Xu - Mr. Peter Xu but not Mr. Peter! (Mr., Mrs. and Ms should not be used with just a first name.) Next week I will collect all the papers and circle one of your choices that I like for you. If I don't circle your first choice name I will write a note why that it sounds awkward or old fashioned to me or that we have two people with that name in our class. I will hand the papers back to you for your approval. If you don't like the name I circled let me know and we will choose another. I want you to have a name that

91. Shhh, Mom's Got Homework It will also teach them about commitment and dedication, not to mention good study habits. What kid wouldn t love to see mom or dad doing homework too? http://www.stretcher.com/stories/971027b.htm

Shhh, Mom's Got Homework by Alicia Kaminski alikam@juno.com I wanted to share some ideas I had on continuing education outside of the classroom. Many stay-at-home parents are discouraged when it comes to continuing their own education. They may have started college and never finished (like myself) or never got the chance to start. For many, they feel that it is necessary to put their own education on hold while they are raising their children. Although parenting is an education in itself and such a vital role, I'm sure it is not the only subject parents want to learn about. Maybe they cannot afford to take even one class at the local college or feel they don't have the time or energy to study for their class. I have found a very simple way to continue their own education and do it without spending but a few dollars on supplies. It is very easy: 1. Start by making a list of the subjects that interest you or that you want to learn about like becoming an accountant or a gourmet chef or life in Italy or real estate or learning a foreign language, whatever. 2. Go to the library and find books on your subject. Just like your kids do for a school report. Go through magazines or other resources that you might have access to find more material. Talk to family, friends or other people who might be of help to your particular subject.

92. Solutions To The Homework Dilemma parental responsibility. You have your own things to teach your child and to share with your child. Don t be homework police. . http://www.drheller.com/homework.html

Family Solutions To The Homework Dilemma The ritual usually begins with the first after school visual sighting of a child by a parent: "How much homework do you have?" Eventually comes the inevitable "Have you done your homework?". For many parents, a significant amount of their evenings are spent assisting, checking, or arguing about homework. Time available to spend with our children is so limited and so precious. Is this how it should be spent? No! What is a parent's responsibility when it comes to a child's homework? Much less than most parents assume. You have all read or been told the basics: provide a reasonable workspace (which, for any given child, can be almost any physical context in which they can do schoolwork) and make sure there is a quiet and reasonable amount of "work time" set aside in each child's schedule. Most parents try to do this but it is wasted advice because for children who are not doing their homework well or consistently, time and place are almost never the issue. Helping children with their homework is also supposed to be a way that parents demonstrate their interest in a child's schoolwork. The same thing can be done much more effectively by having discussions about what a child is learning in school and by parents modeling the value of learning in their lives and in shared activities with their children. "What are you discussing in Social Studies these days?" is far better than questions that focus primarily on grades and homework. Doing a project around the house with a child that requires learning some knowledge or skill is not only an excellent way to convey the value of education but also enables a positive parent-child bond to be developed. Allowing a child to teach YOU something, e.g., about computers, music, or whales, is another great way to reinforce the power of knowledge.

I am never surprised by my students' attitude toward extra assignment. In fact, I can even sympathize with them. After all, they have been cooped up in my classroom all day doggedly working sums and sounding out new words. It seems almost cruel to ask them to fill up their after school hours with more paperwork. More surprising to me than my students' outcry is the number of parents that join in with their complaints. All too often I hear parents telling me that homework is too much work for them, or they feel like they are being asked to do the teacher's job. Unfortunately, this mindset hinders the opportunity parents have to show their children that they care about their education. As a teacher, I have found that

Special Report RELATED The Brookings Institution RAND Corp. YOUR E-MAIL ALERTS Back to School Schools Family Education or Create your own Manage alerts What is this? WASHINGTON (AP) The image of students lugging home heavy packs of books may be familiar in many homes, but two new studies offer a different picture: The nation's homework load is light. "The popular belief out there, the conventional wisdom, is that homework is rising and becoming onerous. It's just simply not true," said Tom Loveless, director of the Brown Center on Education Policy at The Brookings Institution, a Washington think tank. Most students have less than an hour of homework a night, according to a Brookings analysis of a broad range of homework research. The report is based on data from the Education Department, international surveys and research by the University of Michigan and the University of California-Los Angeles, among other sources. For example, when asked how much homework they were assigned the day before, most students age 9, 13 and 17 all reported less than an hour, according to a federal long-term survey in 1999. The share of students assigned more than an hour of homework has dropped for all three age groups since 1984.
