This accessible, informative book will help teachers, parents, and practitioners make sense of current issues and controversies surrounding childhood disabilities. Childhood Psychological Disorders: Current Controversies was compiled to disentangle controversial issues, contributing to a fuller understanding of the needs of children with disabilities and the families raising them. The book focuses on emotional, social, and behavioral concerns such as the psychological dimensions of childhood disability. Specific, topical essays highlight the current state of knowledge and the nature of opposing arguments among specialists in various disciplines. The book opens with a consideration of the historical and social context of child disability, addressing the evolution of disability concepts and the changing nature of disability as a social/cultural phenomenon. Disability's impact on the family system and schools is explored, too, from the vantage point of educators, children, and their parents and siblings. Subsequent chapters examine such diagnoses as pediatric bipolar disorder, autism, the educational label Emotionally Handicapped/Disturbed (EH/D), food allergies and related disorders, and Gender Identity Disorder (GID).
"Far over the Misty Mountains cold To dungeons deep and caverns old We must away ere break of day, To find our long-forgotten gold" I am so thrilled to share the first set in a series of Family Learning Literature Guides that I am creating. As a busy mom of three I understand how challenging it is to teach to multiple age groups and learning styles. This year as I have homeschooled, I have introduced an approach that brings together learning experiences based upon a common theme. This Unit, inspired by The Hobbit, is a one month long curriculum that brings together Language Arts, Handwork, Art Lessons, Nature study, Geography and exciting hands on projects that will breathe fresh air and magic into your home schooling experience. My desire is that each family completes their month long journey with a love of the characters, props and toys, bellies full of hobbity dishes and a new thirst for Adventure and learning. The target age is 8-11, but suggestions for each day will be included to tailor the experience towards families who have younger or older children (or both!). This set is ready to print and use immediately after purchase! 95 pages *This is a print at home item that also includes membership to a private facebook group* Reviews: "We purchased the print version of the Hobbit learning guide and it has been so much fun to use with my kids! My husband and I are huge Tolkien fans and when I saw that HearthMagic had put this guide out, I knew we would use it to help bring the love of Middle Earth to our 5 kids. It hasn't disappointed. There is so much in the guide that wonderfully builds on each chapter of The Hobbit, from recipes to go with the wonderful food descriptions in the book, to craft projects (wool felting spiders!), art projects, games, and so much more. Great resource!" "My family thoroughly enjoyed the Hobbit set! I homeschool my daughters, ages 8, 7, and 3. They are on the younger end of the scale, and I actually had not planned to read The Hobbit with them yet. However, with this guide, we really enjoyed wandering through the world of Bilbo and his adventures. The guide is well-organized and varied in its suggestions for activities and extensions. There is inspiration and information and recipes. I think we will pull it out again next year because we didn't even get to all of the activities and as any fan of The Hobbit knows, you can't just read it once! My family is looking forward to more literature-based guides by Amber! " LOVE this study!!! I honestly cannot say enough how happy I am with this purchase. We are only on Chapter two and we are having such fun together. So highly recommended. Thank you!
