Sociodramatic and Fantastical Play for Children’s Development An important part of a child’s development is play. It is important for children to participate in play because it provides children with the ability to improve their cognitive functions, language, and self-regulation. Vygotsky was one of many theorists that believed sociodramatic play is necessary for for cognitive, social, and emotional development for children (Elias and Berk, 2002). Sociodramatic play is also important for…

If we all could remember what we did in the classroom, it might not be the best for many of us. Many of us have the best way of learning experience just outside of the classroom. We all have a hobby that many can’t just learn in the classroom, but we can learn so much even with just a hobby of their own. Take Brandon Coriz as an example, he moved to Bali, Indonesia for a short while during the time he lived he was able to learn so much things while there. Coriz was able to learn the language,…

wouldn 't let us go on the grass. This however, couldn 't have made John happier. On the playground he was King of Camelot and everyone else were his subjects, while his legion of other “cool” kids were his Knights of the Round.

Philadelphia Story was a play put on by the theater department at the University of North Texas, performed in a proscenium. This worked well because of the big stage you could have a big set, which in this play, was amazing.

After being introduced to all the characters you learn that this isn’t Tracy’s first wedding, but she use to…

coordinating elements that go hand in hand. The way that Ibsen has created this message and theme is extraordinary, and never been done before, displaying the break away from sexism presented in this play. The issue brought to light in this play correlates with modern day problems with gender roles and sexism.

I never expected something bad to happen that day. It was my parents anniversary night, May 11th, 2017, and of course, I had a softball game. We knew that the opposing team was better than us, but we still played hard, until the accident, that is when everything fell apart. My parents anniversary night was on one of my last home games of the season, but not the teams. Our game was at the Hyatt Elementary softball/baseball fields. The team, coaches, and parents knew that we were going to…

I’ve recently been able to read and analyze the script of the play of “Reasons to be Pretty” by Neil LaBute. LaBute has always had a preoccupation with the theme of beauty and aesthetic in our culture. His main focus is showing everything ugly about human nature and being. Neil is most known for his outspoken characters and shocking plotlines, making our job as the reader fairly entertaining. Neil’s play, “Reasons to be pretty”, demonstrates how society and the people that roam in it are…

an online game that I created for the World Bank Institute, undertook real-world missions to improve food security, increase access to clean energy and end poverty in more than 130 countries” (para. 13). These facts support the idea that people who play video games can help change the world. McGonigal keeps supporting her argument with many more statistics, for instance, “in 2010 more than 57,000 gamers were listed as co-authors for a research paper in the prestigious scientific journal Nature.…

The place I wake up early for on the weekends. The place I practice three times a week. The softball field is my happy place. The dirt on the field is the only beach I want to go to. The chalk on the field is the only chalk I write with. The early mornings, the late nights all for something I love. The smell of the fresh cut grass, so fresh just before a game. The look of the just raked infield, so fluffy and smooth.The look of the freshly painted and chalked lines, so crisp like perfection. The…
