It's Safe to leave Children
Description

Learning disabilities vary from mild forms such as attention deficit disorder to more severe disabilities like autism and mental retardation. Incorporating art into the curriculum of students with learning disabilities can be a useful tool. Students with disabilities are not students who are incapable of learning but instead are students who may need material presented to them using alternative methods. Methods that incorporate art can be very successful for these children.Many students with disabilities are separated from regular students for either part of all of the school day. These students spend a great deal of time focusing on remedial skills and learning new skills to help them catch up with the rest of the class. For students with learning disabilities the knowledge that they are not able to function at the same level as other students can be very discouraging. Introducing these students to art classes can offer them the opportunity to do something creative where success is not measured by the same standards as in regular academics. The feeling of succeeding at something can provide these students with self-worth and confidence that can carry over into other areas of study. Allowing children to be involved with art related activities also encourages creativity, problem solving skills, motor skills and other skills that are useful in all areas of academics like math, science and language.Art lessons can be combined with traditional lessons and used as a teaching tool for these students. Children that have difficulty with verbal expression will often have more success by expressing themselves through art. Practicing expression through art may translate to better overall communication skills. Teaching math and science lessons that are hands on art based lessons also tend to hold a student's interest more than traditional lecture lessons. Sometimes just holding a student's attention is half the battle especially for students with attention deficit disorder.

It's Safe to leave Children with their Pets at School



Children are great fans of pets. They like having their own pet to enjoy

themselves with., children do not need anything else when their pets are

around. Parents sometimes are found to be strictly against children

keeping pets. They think that it is unsafe to keep children with animals

because there are chances of animals biting the children. There are some

safety issues that parents can take before introducing any child with an

animal. Before they choose any animal as their pets, they should do

a bit of research and make sure whether the pet is safe to keep my thier

child. After a scientific research, it has been found out that dogs make

good pets for children because they are loyal to their masters and care

for toddlers. Children are quite comfortable when they are with dogs.

Another preferable pet can be a Syrian hamster. Hamsters are very small

in size and can be considered to be ideal because they take the least

time to mingle up with human beings when compared to a dog and cat.

Moreover, keeping a hamster is less expensive than any other animals.





Abroad, mostly in European countries, children are allowed to take

their pets along with them in the schools. Cages are made for the pets so

that they can be kept in the cages during the children's class hours. But

in India pets are not allowed to be brought to schools. It has been found

that when children are with their pets, they don't give importance to any

other thing. In that case, if they bring their pets in the schools then

they will concentrate in their classes less as compared to situations

when they don't bring any pet. But on the other hand, it is

necessary for the children to be in touch with animals. If they start

taking care of their pets then they will eventually learn to take care of

anybody. It also builds a sense of responsibility in them. The

responsibility of caring for the pets should not be left to the children

alone because they are not familiar with handling anything especially if

it is a living thing. Parents should teach the children how to be kind

with them. They should also tell them to play safely with animals because

animals are not as sensible as human beings are. Parents also should make

it a point to keep their pets clean because if they are not kept clean

then it may affect the health of the kids. The immune system of the

children is not as strong as adults'. To keep them disease free, pets

should be kept clean and children should be instructed to keep a minimum

of distance from their pets. Schools in India do not have any

arrangement for animals. Unlike schools abroad, Indian schools are strict

about not letting any animal enter inside the school premises as it may

disturb the atmosphere of the school. Not only the primary level students

but the grownups will also get involved with the animals. This
