All I remember about kindergarten (in the late 60s) was taking a nap, dipping our bubble gum in sour powder out of those pixie sticks and standing on the porch singing songs with all my friends there like we were something special!  I don't remember learning much of anything tho I'm sure we did!  Good luck on the esssay!

U could write about the power struggle between the classes. U could write about the current state of healthcare. U could write about race relations. U could write about the typical american family, and how it's changed..and the troubles associated with it. U could also write about the struggles people have with the current administration. I'm sure u could find stuff on line, and in hard back. Check with ur instructor every step of the way.

By early Americans are you referring to colonists or native Americans?\nEither way,the child could research living shelters ( cabins/ wigwams, teepees, cliff dwellings etc.).  Also, how about checking out games and toys of the kids of those times?  What did they eat?  How did they learn? What did they wear? What were 8/9 year olds like in those days? That might appeal to a third grader.\nCheck out the library for interesting, age appropriate books.  Elizabeth Levy has written some interesting and humorous books about that time period.( My favorite is Our Awesome Ancient Ancestors ) . Another good book is  If You Lived in Colonial Times  by Ann  McGovern.  The Cobblestone History magazines have lots of information  about a lot of topics. If your student is a girl, she could learn how to do simple embroidery for a sampler.  Good luck.

Ask the childs' teacher. I believe you can find out local information on the internet.

Use eric as a search tool.  Check Educational Leadership and the Reading Teacher in a google search.  Good luck.  (Sounds like prime bedtime reading!)Look up NEA archives/local teachers union too.

I'm curious.... If it's due tomorrow, how long have you had to research it?  In any case, you are in luck!  This is the technological age and you can GOOGLE IT!\n\nBest Wishes,\n\nSue

ooohhh, cant list exact source but i believe if you look up the  IDEA law on that was created in the 1970s after the civil rights movement, it may give you a clue.  do you mean private preschool for sped, or inclusive?  because these answers will be different.  it wasnt until the civil rights movement that disable kids were even thought to have rights of their own to an equal education so my guess is that most of these kids were institutionalized.  but again, look up the IDEA and the history of special ed.  or the history of preschool sped.  good luck!

Sorry I can only suggest try going to google and put a few words in reference to your question, to narrow down the 1000's of respondents, add or change wording to narrow down to see something that you may want to work with or through...\n\nLike by School Name then Years... Or mabey if you knew a friend that may remember???\n\nGood Luck!

dear kdjags,\n\nif you are referring to the following article:\n\n"Memory: Luba art and the making of history" by Mary Nooter Roberts and Allen F Roberts.\n\nYes it begins at page 22 and runs till page 35 (a total of 14 pages) in the Winter Issue of African Arts volume 29, 1996.\n\nThe 9c and 9 bw behing refers to photographs, apparently this article comes with 9 color and 9 black and white photographs.
