In “Shapes of Childhood Recalled” by Maxine Greene the author explores how children and humans alike absorb and construe the world around them, from shapes and outlines to forming an understanding and fitting this information in their schema. Greene takes the reader on a journey in this passage from children not having any prior knowledge about their surrounding environment to being able to retrieve learned material. Many philosophers have used the term “tabula rasa” to describe how not only children learn from experiences and are initially born as a “blank slate” but also as adults continue to learn from what they encounter in life. This term was first introduced by John Locke in the 17th century but can be traced back to the writings of Aristotle

As a child you are born Innocent knowing nothing about life but the more menacing situations you are in your innocence is slowly being chipped away at. If you look around right after winter the leaves

• Children tend to see natural objects as designed or purposeful in ways that go beyond what their parents teach. Rivers exist so that we can go fishing on them, and birds are here to look pretty.

This toy uses the cognitive development theories of both Piaget and Vygotsky by helping children learn through experience. When the child turns the farmer and sees him pointing to the picture of an animal and then hears the noise it makes, the experience helps the child to understand that the picture and sound are connected. Just like Piaget says, the hearing and seeing of the animal helps the child create a theory of how these animals in their minds. Vygotsky says that children are products of their culture so, if a child is in a culture where there are no farm animals they would have no idea how these animals sound without the experience. However, with this toy they can experience a farm culture without actually having to be there. A parent could help enhance their child’s cognitive development according

The wind howled in the daylight.  Chills ran up my back.  That's how you know it is fall in New Jersey.   The leaves fell to the ground as they turned an ombre color.  “Come on!”, my mom shouted in frustration.

Leaves of the surrounding trees were starting to turn into different shades of red, yellow and brown; a sign of an early autumn.

The color green disappears. Crisp yellow, red and brown leaves fall from the tall oak and maple trees to make the perfect jumping pile. The clear night sky and cold air call for heavy boyfriend jackets with bonfires and roasted marshmallows with family and friends. All of these beautiful things make autumn spectacular. Four years ago around Halloween, Brittney made plans to have a bonfire with her friends Jessica, Haley, Ashley, Samantha. Instead of having a fun out with friends, her mother, brother and sisters are pressuring her to visit her step father’s family, whom she so deeply despised.

Autumn was extremely playful with both Sarah and Juli, Slapping her hands down on the counter at Sarah and popping up trying to scare Juli. As I pointed out she was making weaving motions with her head turned the beginning and seemed to be upset by something having to do with the back room, I say this based on were both she and Sarah were pointing. However, once Sarah was distracted with the customer she seemed to relax and clam down. This tells me that she may have been feeding off some something that perhaps Sarah was talking about and that she calmed down once the stimuli was

The air was crisp outside his cabin window. Fall’s cold brush had repainted the treetops; in other places perhaps they were a feast of colour, but the oak tree was different. The last piece leaf fell, not with the grace of a feather, but not so direct as a stone. It offers only a little resistance to the air, not knowing that this is its last dance in the sunlight, its last chance to play in the woodland air and that it soon will be lost in the sea of leaves that have already

This is an example of long-term memory as almost every child is asked to commit this fact to memory.

Throughout our childhood, we all can recall memorable moments about things we experienced. Whether it be losing a tooth or getting in trouble during recess. The children in To Kill a Mockingbird Scout, Jem, and Dill spends their childhood together learning from each other and the town around them. Today the concept of “childhood” is changing for each generation and becoming more connected with technology rather than going to the park. Still, there are things every child can relate to or remind them of a similar event. Such as fearing a neighbor, summertime, and the first day of school. There are many different components that make up our childhood experiences.

After two days, surrounded by concentrated stillness, a thick fog released from the fields around the house. The earth’s exhale of summer surrendering to the cool night air of autumn. It rolled across the back road. By morning, the trees outside the kitchen were responding to the mist, kissing their branches. Black walnuts. Last to leaf out in spring, first to shed them in the fall. The first to accept this new

The sound of the recently fallen, brown and gold leaves beneath feet. Autumn has arrived.

The beginning of a life knows of no gray. The world is pure. It flourishes. Nothing bad can happen except minute occurrences like a bee sting or a common cold. The start of life on earth begins with a baby. The start of the life of Earth begins with spring. A child knows little, and does not see the world’s evil in its entirety. For children life is hopeful, it is bright. There is an endless world of imagination living in the eyes of a child, a vibrant world. Spring. New plants arise from the dust and begin to blossom. Colors shine bright and the world seems to smile. Around this time of year life remains structured and orderly, just like how a child has strict rules. Spring is somewhat a selfish time. The earth shows off its potential. A
