Answer to Question #257003 in Sociology for jubjub

Question

provide an informed description of what you think a ‘well-socialised’ child is in the context of a grade that you are going to teach

Answer 1

Answer

A well socialized child is nurtured in school where most children may arrive at school ready to learn in several different ways. However, one way is to have elevated levels of language, emergent literacy, and world knowledge acquired at home or in preschool. Equally important, though, is readiness in the emotional, social, and motivational realms: the ability to adapt to the new constraints of the classroom, the social skills that are needed to participate effectively in classroom discourse, and the self-esteem and sense of agency required to work hard and learn intentionally.
