Product Description
In A Place to Call Home, Barton J. Hirsch identifies the strengths of after-school settings while challenging them to rise to new levels of excellence. After-school programs have attracted a strong and growing constituency. Parents, educators, researchers, and policymakers are engaged in pivotal debates about how after-school programs should be oriented. Powerful forces are pushing programs to be more school-like and oriented to academic drill. However, A Place to Call Home: After-School Programs for Urban Youth provides convincing evidence that yielding to such forces would be tragic, a wasted opportunity. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars The result of research conducted over a 40 year period
The result of an impressive and accessible scholarship, A Place To Call Home: After-School Program For Urban Youth by Barton J. Hirsch (Professor of Human Development and Social Policy, Northwestern University) is the result of research conducted by the author over a four-year period at six Boys & Girls Clubs located in low-income, predominately minority, urban neighborhoods. This study documents the crucial support that after-school programs provide urban youth with case illustrations, insightful analysis, and verbatim field notes. Enhanced with an extensive bibliography and an index, A Place To Call Home is strongly recommended reading for students of Urban Studies, Child Psychology, Education and School-Age Child Care issues. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Fun Literacy Activities for Afterschool Programs
Excellent format and material.Material broken down by age group.Explains all the whats and whys.

4-0 out of 5 stars Fun Literacy Activities for After-school Programs: Books And Beyond
The great thing is that the setup was fairly easy and the children were able to learn and retain what they learned according to the results of the tests that were administered.However, I would have been happier if we were able to get a cheaper price on this item, because the quality of the product did not quite warrent the price.

5-0 out of 5 stars A Fabulous Teaching Tool!
This book has sparked a new passion at our program - seeing how much we can interest the children in learning through fun.The activities are very exciting and have helped our staff come up with many new ideas.It's true, you can have fun while teaching and learning.Our favorite activity is the Haiku Straw Paintings.They are displayed for all to enjoy and the children show them to everyone entering the site. ...

Description:
A secondary analysis of data from the National Survey of America's Families was conducted to explore the use and quality of child care of a nationally representative sample of low-income school-aged children, stratified by disability status and family structure. Measures of care included hours spent in care, hours of self-care, number of care arrangements used per week, costs of care, type of primary care arrangement, and whether parents arranged their work around care. Both family structure and children's disability status influenced the use and quality of care, with children of single parents, and particularly disabled children, seemingly at greatest risk for adverse developmental outcomes related to the care they received. ...
