Nurture Shock: How Praise, Protection And PBS Are Ruining Our Kids | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
Essentially, the take-away is that parents today are treating their kids as if they are mini-adults, when, in fact, they require vastly different tools and parameters to grow up.

Two Faces of Perfectionism | Psychology Today

Two Faces of Perfectionism | Psychology Today | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

On the surface, striving for perfection in the things we do is a good thing. It helps us plan, organize, strategize and achievegoals. But there is a flip side to perfectionism that can harm children and teens as they journey through their school years.

 

How should parents and educators help kids understand their perfectionist tendencies so that doing their best doesn’t drag them down?

Great Tips: Label Books with Your Child’s Name

Great Tips: Label Books with Your Child’s Name | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

Try something new with your kids every day! Find tips on reading, learning, and raising a well-rounded child.

 

Make a point of writing your child’s name in the books that are hers to keep, in simple block letters. In part, this helps her begin to recognize the symbols that she’ll eventually learn as the unique sequence of letters that make up her name.

 

===> And it’ll make her (his) “library” feel that much more special and precious, something to build and save. <===

What Is The Right Age To Introduce Your Kids To Mobile Technology? | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
My boys love to play with their iPad. My oldest who is 4 &frac12; spends an average of about 45 minutes each day playing a variety of games. Some like Endless Alphabet are educational while others like Fruit Ninja, are not so much.
Gust MEES's insight:

 

I suppose the answer is a fairly simple one. Like everything in life, access to technology is best done with a healthy serving of moderation.

Never post online (either by words or photos):

Whom you are with.Where you are (or are going).What time you will arrive.

If you feel like you are being repetitive in teaching your child these rules, treat that that “nagging” feeling as a good sign. It means you care and understand the weight of safety online and your child will be safer for it.

Critical Thinking: Ways to Improve Your Child’s Mind

Critical Thinking: Ways to Improve Your Child’s Mind | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
by Marilyn Price-Mitchell, Ph.D. This article explores critical thinking in elementary school children and offers guidance to parents that helps keep young minds active during the summer months and all year long.
Gust MEES's insight:

To be good at thinking, children must believe that thinking is fun and want to be good at it. Parents can make thinking fun throughout the academic year as well as during the summer and on vacations. Good thinkers practice thinking just like they practice basketball or soccer.

You can talk about these ways of thinking with your children by watching this video together. Afterwards, have a discussion about how they can practice being like Fair-Minded Fran.

A Letter To Parents Of Digital Age Children

A Letter To Parents Of Digital Age Children | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
A Letter To Parents Of Digital Age Children

 

Helping children learn how to navigate their way in the digital world is a complicated business. Those of us in education need parents like you to be involved as active and open learners about the digital world, learners who can engage with us, their children and their children’s teachers, in much-needed conversations about digital matters.

 

We need parents to act as important models and supports in their childrens’ explorations online. We need, parents and schools alike, to get past the fear that holds us back from connecting with young people when they need us most. Only then can we help them travel far and learn from the journey once they cross the street to encounter the world.

 

Gust MEES's insight:

1. Teach your children how to cross the digital street!
