Jeder kennt es, wenn das Essen mit Kita-Kindern zur Nervenzerreißprobe wird. Zu unterschiedlich sind die Bedürfnisse, Wünsche, Haltungen, Regeln, Erwartungen und Vorlieben von Eltern, Kindern und Erzieher/-innen. Die Bedeutung des Essens als etwas Gemeinschaftliches, Genussvolles, Schönes, aber auch Persönliches und Individuelles gerät dabei vollkommen aus dem Blick. Dieses Hörbuch möchte den Blick aufs Essen wieder geraderichten: Es erklärt kurz und kompakt, wie das Essen mit Kita-Kindern entspannt und bedürfnisorientiert gestaltet werden kann, und gibt Tipps und Empfehlungen für eine gelingende Erziehungspartnerschaft auch in strittigen Fragen ums Essen.

Digitale Medien in der Kita - dieses Thema wird von Eltern sowie Erziehern und Erzieherinnen kontrovers diskutiert.

Das Hörbuch setzt bei möglichen Fragen, verbreiteten Einwänden und Bedenken an.

We often talk about the challenges of teacher recruitment and retention, about new initiatives and political landscapes, but day in, day out, teachers and schools are delivering exceptional teaching, and most of it is invisible. Ross uncovers, celebrates, and disseminates best practice in teaching. This is supported by case studies and research undertaken by Ross in 10 primary and secondary schools across Great Britain, including a pupil referral unit and private, state and grammar schools, as well as explanations from influential educationalists as to why and how these ideas work.

Qui n’aimerait pas que son enfant soit avide d’apprendre et persévérant; qu’il soit capable d’introspection, de contemplation, de concentration; qu’il se montre chaque jour reconnaissant, ne tenant rien pour acquis? Pourtant, notre époque ne cesse de l’éloigner de ces aspirations, de le détourner de la nature, du jeu libre, du silence…

Have you ever wondered how your early life shaped you? From beginning to say simple words like 'mama' and learning how to walk around unaided, to the first day of school and forming new friendships, everyone has been a child. The roots of our adult selves go right back to our first experiences. How we think, act and interact is influenced by our early years, yet most people don't know the key findings from the juiciest child development studies that can give us insight into our adult selves.

Negli ultimi quindici anni gli adulti che hanno avuto a che fare con il mondo dell'infanzia, insegnanti o genitori, hanno dovuto confrontarsi in modo graduale ma inesorabile con una crescente terminologia medico-psichiatrica: disturbi dell'attenzione, autismo, dislessia, discalculia... Le certificazioni sono aumentate in maniera esponenziale e molti bambini - che un tempo sarebbero stati indicati come turbolenti, indisciplinati, in difficoltà - oggi hanno una diagnosi precisa.

In the 1930s and 1940s, there was nothing bigger in Texas high school football than the Masonic Home Mighty Mites - a group of orphans bound together by hardship and death. These youngsters, in spite of being outweighed by at least 30 pounds per man, were the toughest football team around. They began with nothing - not even a football - yet in a few years were playing for the state championship on the highest level of Texas football. This is a winning tribute to a courageous band of underdogs from a time when America desperately needed fresh hope and big dreams.
