Juegos que al entrar en la escuela vinculan la realidad que se vive al interior de cada cultura, recreándola a su vez en la fantasía de los niños que hoy tienen otra mirada sobre el tiempo que ya pasó. Con la posibilidad que se da en la escuela de construir significados junto con los otros en el momento en que están jugando, se pueden volver a jugar los juegos tradicionales.

Al respecto, la historia en clave feminista no es la elaboracion intelectual sobre un pasado muerto, sin anclaje en lo real, sino una urgencia social de las mujeres para poder apropiarse libremente de su futuro. EnglishThe final entry of women in historical studies is due to theoretical developments from the feminist critique, which will serve as a conceptual framework for further research in order to correct the omissions and distortions, considering the generic component as a key to properly understand why the historical moments impact differently on men and women. In this regard, the history on feminist clue is not an intellectual development on a dead past, not rooted in reality, but a social urgency for women to seize their future freely.

Lieberman, Linda Snell (both College at Brockport faculty members), Luz M. Cruz (College at Brockport emeritus faculty member), Phoebe Brown. The Journey to Wholeness book will literally take the reader on a journey into the diverse lives of 13 women with disabilities. This is a one of a kind book as there is no other compilation of women’s voices like this one. These women come from different backgrounds, experience different barriers and triumphs, and find joys in many unexpected places. Their disabilities range from Deafness, to MS, to Fibromyalgia to visual impairments, to rheumatoid arthritis and spina bifida. Some are born with their disabilities, some acquire theirs quickly or progressively over time. Some continue working, and some do not work after their disability is diagnosed. Some have children and some do not. Some are religious and some find spirituality in the outdoors, or by volunteering. One thing for sure is that these women are brutally honest, sincere and resilient.The reader is asked to take this ride with the contributors and learn that people with disabilities do not want to be pitied, or excluded. Disability can be a pathway to new opportunities, friendships, leadership opportunities, hobbies, and experiences. Disability requires a new way of thinking, but can be navigated and embraced when the woman see the possibilities and opportunities that they create. --Publisherhttps://digitalcommons.brockport.edu/bookshelf/1363/thumbnail.jp
ABSTRACT One of the essential factors that accounts for learning (rather than mere participation)... more ABSTRACT One of the essential factors that accounts for learning (rather than mere participation) is instructional alignment, a factor often overlooked in the richly complex arena of the gymnasium. "Instructional alignment exists when there is a match in the stimulus conditions of intended outcomes, instructional processes, and instructional assessment" (Siedentop, 1991). In other words, what the teacher intends to teach (objectives) matches the practice activities (various tasks and games), and is checked during assessment or closure. While instructional alignment is usually referred to on a curricular level-agreement between unit or program goals, learning activities, and more formal summative assessments--it is equally important on a smaller scale, such as in a lesson. When instruction is aligned on all levels, students will learn much more effectively. With the use of a few basic strategics, a clear sense that students have learned something becomes more likely, and what they have learned will be readily apparent to the instructor, the students, and outside observers. In this article, the authors describe a process for establishing instructional alignment at the lesson level and illustrate how to apply it to a specific lesson. (Contains 1 table.)

Right atrial volumes may reflect the burden of RV diastolic dysfunction. The objective of this paper is to evaluate the clinical, echocardiographic, biochemical and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) variables, focusing particularly on right atrial response and right ventricular diastolic function prior to and after elective PVR in adult patients with ToF. This prospective study was conducted from January 2009 to April 2013 in consecutive patients > 18 years of age who had undergone ToF repair in childhood and were accepted for elective PVR. Twenty patients (mean age: 35 years; 70% men) agreed to enter the study. PVR was performed with a bioporcine prosthesis. Concomitant RV reduction was performed in all cases when technically possible. Pulmonary end-dias...

The purpose of this article is to describe the results of two types of fitness assessments on physical education majors. The results of the Fitnessgram test on all physical education majors revealed a fairly high overall rate of passing (82 % of students passed all test items); higher passing rates were apparent for specific tests. BMI was the area of greatest difficulty and concern. In addition, majors in the teacher education concentration who had completed all coursework and student teaching were given a cognitive test called FitSmart, which is a National Health-Related Fitness Knowledge Test designed for high school students. Results indicated that although the pre-service teachers scored in the 99th percentile fo...

Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door! -Emma Lazarus Inscribed on the base of the Statue of Liberty Before We Begin: Describe the cultural composition of an elementary or middle school classroom in your community. How can teachers meet the needs of the diverse cultures represented in these classrooms? Be ready to compare your view with classmates. America's public school system was founded upon the premise that all people, regardless of their cultures or special circumstances, are entitled to a free, quality education so that they can become productive, contributing citizens in our society. Modern-day educators have extended that vision to create global citizens. Education is, in a sense, a "golden door" of opportunity that enables people to transcend social, physical, economic, or cultural barriers to pursue their dreams. Increasingly diverse classrooms provide a venue for children to learn to embrace cultural differences and eliminate the barriers of racism, sexism, and prejudice. If we want all students to enter this golden door of educational opportunity, teachers must be sensitive to their students' cultural and academic differences. They need to create culturally sensitive learning communities, develop positive teacherstudent-parent relationships, design lessons that motivate all students to learn, and implement those lessons using differentiated instructional strategies to maximize student learning. 1. List the special needs that Miguel and Juanita bring to the classroom. 2. How can you address these needs before the harvest ends? 3.
