In addition, with instruments children can create and explore their own music, rather than participate with and react to others. In this school-based research study 147 children were chosen randomly from among those who attended private kindergartens in high socio-economic areas in the city center of Ankara, Turkey. All children were aged between 4 and 6 years. The research methodology comprised a questionnaire to gather demographic information about the children, the use of musical instruments and a set of cards containing pictures of musical instruments. When the children were asked the question, ‘What is music’, they answered mainly by saying, ‘playing a musical instrument’. Many of the children were able to identify musical instruments correctly when shown pictures of them.

The fact that music being a very useful tool in education apart from being an artform, necessiates it to be included in programs for educating the disabled children, as well as the normally developing ones. While placing musical activities in special programs, situations where problems may arise with those special children should be taken into account. The aims and purposes must be determined by considering all developmental areas of disabled children. The educator should be well familiar with the specific group and should carefully judge their developmental levels and readiness. The purposes determined by considering all the factors mentioned above should proceed from easy to difficult and arrayed in steps into the program. Educators, materials and environment ar Tam Metin

Intelligence is also suggested to be among the major factors that affect fear. This study was designed and conducted to examine the fears of trainable mentally retarded children and those without mental retardation. Eighty-eight trainable mentally retarded childern aged 1015 years and 122 children without mental retardation aged between 7-15 years were included in the study. The "Fear Survey for Children with and without Mental Retardation" developed by Ramirez and Kratochwill was used as the data collection tool. After statistical analysis, a significant relationship was found between mental retardation and the healthy states in terms of both the number of fear episodes and in its severity. About a century ago in 1897, Stanley Hall made the following remarks about fear: "There is no one who is not afraid. All humans fear, and indeed must fear. The proble...

The Motor Development Section of the Portage Early Childhood Educational Program checklist was administered to all the children. Results revealed that motor skills developed more slowly in the hearing impaired children and the Down syndrome children than in the normal children. In comparison with the normal children, the hearing impaired children seemed to perform more poorly in skills associated with balance and general coordination than in other skills. The Down syndrome children demonstrated poorer performance than the normal children in all motor skills. This was attributed to the hypotonic muscles typical of children with Down syndrome. Results support the systematic inclusion of physical education activities in programs for children with disabilities.

Additionally, it has been observed that news on television, soap opera, childrens' programs, advertisements, video clips, and talk shows may contain messages related to sex. That is why it has been thought that television has an impact on sexual development and education and a number of studies have been done to research its effects.

Musical instruments were used whose frequency ranges matched those th .. children were capable of hearing. After a pretest, students spent 5 half-days per week in training over the course of 2 months. Training included breathing activities, sound distinction exercises, and training in such rhythm skills as the ability to beat the rhythm of a given unseen sound or musical passage and the ability to beat a rhythm by imitating a visible model. Students in an integrated group program were involved in rhythmic activities alongside hearing children, such as dancing and singing. Post-test results indicate significant improvements in students' performance on a variety of rhythm tasks, with imitation of visible models being evidently easier. Student results are analyzed by specific rhythm beaten. (Contains 11 references.) (PB)

The data were collected from caregivers, teachers and youth informants and compared of the same-aged children grown up by their families with the financial aid not being under protection and those who were grown up in institutional care. The sample of this study consisted of 37 children who were under protection and sent back to their families, 81 children who stayed with their families and 65 children who were grown up in institutional care. The total number of children was 183. Family Report Form, CBCL/6-18, TRF/6-18 and YSR/11-18 were used for data collection. The children who have been moved from institutions to their biological families had higher problem behaviors than the children who stayed with their families and those who grew up in institutional care (P<0.05).
