Typical examples of four different speech disorders—voice, cleft palate, articulation, and stuttering—were ranked for severity by kindergarten, first-grade, second-grade, and third-grade teachers and by public school speech clinicians. Results indicated that classroom teachers, as a group, moderately agreed with speech clinicians regarding the severity of different speech disorders, and classroom teachers displayed significantly more agreement among themselves than did the speech clinicians.

Perceptual Skills

The primary concern of this study was the determination of the degree of relationship between the Frostig DTVP and academic achievement as measured by the Scholastic Research Association Achievement Test Battery (SRA). The DTVP was administered to kindergarten and first grade subjects while the SRA was administered to the same subjects at second and third grade. Product-moment correlations were then computed along with step-wise multiple regression analyses. None of the DTVP scores were useful predictors of second grade school achievement, while only Position in Space predicted SRA Language Arts and Math Concept achievement at the third grade level.

Two different solution contexts for the Math Is Beautiful investigation are described here: Ali Duncan's third-grade class at Prueter Public School in Kitchener, Ontario, solved the problem during a mathematics class; and Cynthia Hockman-Chupp's son in the second grade explored the investigation while on a plane trip during a family vacation. In both cases, students were asked to design a stained-glass window using specific criteria related to quadrilaterals. To meet the criteria, students had to consider how many shapes would fill a designated space, how different shapes can fit together to tile a surface, and the properties and attributes of different types of quadrilaterals.

Bidirectional Association

Spelling is a literacy skill that must be mastered during children’s academic development. It involves a variety of cognitive factors, including morphological awareness. Studies in the alphabet and Chinese systems have shown that there is a close relationship between morphological awareness and spelling. Although there is clearly a significant unidirectional effect of morphological awareness on spelling significantly, few studies have explored the bidirectional relationship between morphological awareness and spelling. This three-time point longitudinal study was designed to investigate the reciprocal effects of morphological awareness and character spelling in Chinese. Participants included 124 children from two primary schools in Mainland China. The students were tracked from first grade to third grade and were administered a battery of tests to measure morphological awareness (e.g., homophone awareness, homograph awareness, and compounding awareness) and spelling to dictation, controlling for IQ, phonological awareness, and orthographic awareness. A structural equation model was utilized to examine the reciprocal relation between the students’ morphological awareness and character spelling. Results showed that earlier morphological awareness predicted subsequent spelling abilities from first grade to third grade and spelling in first grade predicted morphological awareness in second grade; however, spelling in second grade did not predict the subsequent morphological awareness in third grade. This study suggests that there is a bidirectional association between morphological awareness and spelling from first grade to second grade in Chinese, and a unidirectional association between morphological awareness and spelling from second grade to third grade. Future studies could examine the causal relationship between morphological awareness and character spelling by using an instructional intervention.

Assessment Strategies

The present study aimed to identify appropriate alternative evaluation strategies for learning mathematics in the intermediate stage and the evaluation activities of each strategy. The study was applied to the descriptive descriptive method. The sample of the study consisted of the mathematics curriculum in the intermediate stage included in: (teacher's guides, assessment guides), the teacher's copy of the first, second, and third grades for the first and second semesters, For analysis, in accordance with the amended edition 1435 H / 2014. In addition to the alternative assessment strategies, which were designed after reviewing the studies on alternative evaluation strategies in the field of mathematics and the characteristics of middle school students, the tool was developed for the middle stage. The list consisted of thirty-two paragraphs. The process of analyzing the curriculum was carried out in three steps: First, a table was prepared containing the units included in the mathematics textbooks for the intermediate stage, the alternative evaluation strategies and the paragraphs of each strategy. Second: The results of the analysis are abstracted by calculating the frequency of each paragraph in the list and included in the mathematics curriculum in the form of descriptive quantitative analysis. Third: Calculate the frequency of each strategy and the percentage of the extent to which each alternative assessment clause is included in the mathematics curriculum. The results of the study were as follows: 1 The percentages of inclusion of the mathematics curriculum for the activities of the alternative evaluation strategies varied. The higher observation strategy was 28% in the first grade, 30% in the intermediate second grade, and 38% in the third grade. Paper and pencil assessment strategy, 12% lower in the average grade 1 curriculum, 13% in the intermediate second grade curriculum, and 11% in the average third grade curriculum. 2 There is convergence but not balanced in the level of inclusion of alternative assessment activities for all strategies in the mathematics curriculum of the intermediate stage. 3 - There are deficiencies in the inclusion of alternative assessment strategies and their activities in the mathematics curriculum for the intermediate stage, which means that they do not achieve the structural philosophy that calls for the elimination of tests in traditional form, and attention to the original calendar such as: files of achievement, interviews, self-evaluation, The study recommended the importance of the need for the attention of the planners and developers of mathematics curricula for the intermediate stage in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to find a kind of balance in the inclusion of these curricula alternative evaluation strategies, and the activities of each strategy.

Virtual museum applications allowed individuals to access the museums that are located in distant areas and those who could not visit due to various reasons independent of time and space. The aim of this study was to determine the utilisation of virtual museum applications in life science courses based on the views of classroom teachers and the contribution of the applications to the students. This study was designed as a qualitative research based on the phenomenology method. The study data were collected using an interview form, developed by the author, in March 2019 during the 2018–2019 academic year spring semester. The study findings demonstrated that classroom teachers considered virtual museum applications important in life science courses; however, they also stated that not all curriculum topics were suitable for the virtual museum application, and the application was most frequently used in the second grade elementary school.

This study investigated: (1) the relative social position of third grade speech-handicapped children as perceived by their peers and teachers, and (2) attitudes of parents of normal-speaking and speech-handicapped children toward individuals with oral communicative disorders. The study population was comprised of 197 public school third grade children, their teachers, and their parents. The social status of the speech-handicapped tended to be lower than that of the normal-speaking children in certain interpersonal relationships. The parents' questionnaires revealed that mothers of normal-speaking children did not differ greatly in attitude toward speech disorders than mothers of speech-handicapped children.
