Blog Post #510/1/2019 Three things I learned:
That culture includes the knowledge, skills, rules,norms, practices, traditions, self-definitions, institutions, language and values that shape and guide beliefs and behaviors. Another one is that poor children are at least twice as likely as non-poor children to be kept back in school. The third thing i learned was the definition of prejudice, it is a rigid and irrational generalization, it is a prejudgment about an entire category of people. 2 connections I have is: I have many parents at the daycare that believe they are better than us at the daycare, they show a kind of classism during drop off and picking up their child. I work at a daycare in more of the rich area so many of the parents make more money then the caregivers at their childs daycare, they may not speak to us at all or speak bare minimum to us. Another connection I have is when it talks about doing literacy activities with your kids. I do not have any children yet but ever since my sisters were just born I would read to them and as they get older I work on their homework with them and get them to read to me. I have loved reading since I was little even though my parents didn’t read with me as much as they probably should have. I want my sisters to love reading and to be able to succeed far in their lives. 1 question I have: How do we help low socioeconomic status children succeed in our classrooms and help them succeed through out their lives?
