Birth order matters for teachers & principals.
Michael Grose believes that birth order information about students, and, if possible, parents and your colleagues, will make your life as a teacher and school leader easier. Grose outlines why:
1. Birth order gives you greater understanding of children2. Birth order tells you how much assistance parents need
3. Birth order explains why kids are different in a family
4. Birth order gives you a clearer picture of your personal drivers
5. Birth order knowledge makes you more effective with your colleagues
He states that "there’s no doubt that an understanding of your colleagues’ birth order positions will give vital information to help you be more effective when interacting with them. Similarly, collecting data about children’s birth order will provide you with vital data to help you more effective as a teacher and administrator."

parent-school relationships, helping parents, difficult parents
The Achiever, the Peacemaker and the Life of the Party: How Birth Order Affects Personality
Cross believes that Birth Order Does Matter. "While the eldest child is programmed for excellence and achievement, the middle child is raised to be understanding and conciliatory and the baby seeks attention. As a result, birth order is a powerful variable in the unfolding of your personality."
That Elusive Birth Order Effect and What it Means for You
Can birth order really shape your personality?
Published on May 18, 2013 by Susan Krauss Whitbourne, Ph.D. in Fulfillment at Any Age
Stewart, a University of Georgia psychologist Alan E. Stewart,wrote (2012) on the theory and research on birth order. He based his paper on 529 journal articles published over a 20 year period. The sheer number of studies on birth order is a testimony to the importance of this topic in psychology.
Stewart distinguished between “actual” birth order, or ABO (the numerical rank order into which you are born in your family of origin) and “psychological” birth order, or PBO (self-perceived position in the family).
This is a really important difference because as Susan Krauss Whitbourne, Ph.D. stated it means that your birth order need not have the same impact on you as the birth order you believe you have.
Whitbourne explains that the actual and psychological birth order can deviate for a number of reasons, including illness of one child, size of family, and degree of separation between siblings.
She stated that your role in the family based on your age may not be same as the role you have come to occupy.Your perceived niche in your family plays a larger role in influencing the adult you’ve become than the actual timing of your birth.
In Birth Order in the Workplace BernadoTirado shares that
research shows that birth order has a lot of influence on how we behave in the workplace. Whether we like it or not, we unconsciously create a family environment at work. Tirado believes that having the ability to predict, or knowing someone's birth order provides you with a competitive advantage in understanding how to work with the individual. He highly encourages you to read The Birth Order Book. He states that it's easy to read and doesn't follow the traditional academic writing style.
Tirado believes that first born, and often the only child as well, are perfectionists, reliable, conscientious, list makers, well-organized, natural leaders, critical, and serious- which in the workplace equates with being straight thinkers, organized, and goal setters.
Tirado states that only children are very thorough, deliberate, self-motivated, black-and-white thinkers, fearful, and cautious. Only children never have to compete with siblings for personal attention, which makes them more confident and articulate.He finds that the middle child tends to be a mediator, diplomatic, avoids conflict, loyal to peers, has many friends, and is independent which in the workforce equates to being skilled at mediating disputes, willing to work things out, and can be trusted with sensitive information.
Tirado states that the last born typically are manipulative, charming, blames others, attention seekers, natural salesperson, engaging, and affectionate which in the workforce equates to being able to read others well and know how to work well one on one or in small groups., being caring. and always wanting to help, and are easy to talk too.

Australian Science Teachers Association seeks your assistance.
Delese Brewster as Senior Projects Officer is looking for help to determine primary teachers needs to ensure that they are well supported.
Are you able to help them, help you?
With permission I share Delese's message:
Dear Colleagues
There is a focus on ensuring that primary school teachers are well supported with innovative and meaningful tools and resources. Consequently, we seek the support of primary teaching staff to participate in a survey that aims to clearly determine their current needs as well as test their reactions to some new concepts. ASTA is conducting this survey with support from the Office of the Chief Scientist. It is endorsed by the Australian Primary Principals Association.
An independent company, Down To Earth Research (DTER), has been commissioned to undertake an online survey to collect the data required. The online survey is only part of a broader project that has already seen completed a series of group discussions and in-depth interviews. The online survey is relatively simple and should only take about 10 minutes to complete. Not only would we like you personally to complete the survey, we are seeking your assistance to distribute this invitation to your primary teacher network by forwarding them this email with the survey link.
All information provided via the survey will be treated as confidential, with responses compiled into a general summary that does not identify specific respondents or their school. We will provide all schools with a summary of the survey findings at project completion, which I’m sure you will find extremely interesting.
If you have any queries about the study, please contact Vic Dobos on email: vdobos@icloud.com or phone: 02 6282 9377.
To participate in the survey, please http://v8.smpsurveys.com/survey.jsp?KEY_SURVEY=f2ccfaeb-1375-4742-913c-a1cd793beec6&locale=en&UID= (you may have to press Ctrl + Click).

Apraxia Awareness Day & you get the presents!!
Multimedia Speech Pathology are celebrating Apraxia Awareness Day on May 14 by setting these two apps to FREE FOR TODAY ONLY!
Apraxia is a poorly understood neurological condition. People who have it find it difficult or impossible to make certain motor movements, even though their muscles are normal. Milder forms of apraxia are known as dyspraxia.
"There are two forms of apraxia of speech -- acquired apraxia and developmental apraxia. Acquired apraxia can occur in people of all ages. Children with speech apraxia often have far greater abilities to understand speech than to express themselves with spoken words." http://www.webmd.com/brain/apraxia-symptoms-causes-tests-treatments.
To speak correctly, your child's brain has to learn how to make plans that tell his or her speech muscles how to move the lips, jaw and tongue in ways that result in accurate sounds and words. Your child's brain also plans these movements so that he or she speaks with normal speed and rhythm.

Earth & Space Science resources & info from Paul Floyd.
In this post I am sharing a message from Paul Floyd-
"a passionate amateur astronomer with 24 years experience (as at 2014)
in running a range of education and public astronomy outreach activities." http://nightskyonline.info/?page_id=2
Paul Floyd in April 2012:
He had just finished a simulated walk on Mars at the Victorian Space Science Education Centre
(http://www.vssec.vic.edu.au). http://nightskyonline.info/?page_id=2
I love his scale model of the Sun, Earth & Moon System which would help "you to achieve part of one of the following elaborations from either the Year 3 or the Year 5 The Australian Curriculum, Science / Science Understanding / Earth and space science content areas.

For those covering the 'Space Sciences' component of the Australian Curriculum: Science curriculum (or equivalent) this term, make sure you ask your students to look at the Moon Wednesday night as it occults Saturn.Essentially what they will see is Saturn (looking like a moderately bright pale yellow star) disappear behind the Moon then reappear on the other side of the Moon. How long this takes will depend on where you are in Australia. Observing this provides a nice and relatively rare demonstration of the 3D nature of space, and of the fact that the Moon is orbiting the Earth (causing the occultation).
I recommend that you visit Paul's website and check out the valuable resources available including The Australian Curriculum "Earth & Space Science" resources that he is developing and The Free Student astonomy newsletter for each term.Binoculars are recommending for observing the occultation due to the fact that the Moon is very close to being full, and therefore as Saturn draws closer to the Moon, the glare from the Moon will make it more difficult to see Saturn disappear and reappear.Event times and a chart for different locations in Eastern Australian for this occulation can be found here: http://nightskyonline.info/?page_id=11288Regards,Paul Floyd.
I love his scale model of the Sun, Earth & Moon System which would help "you to achieve part of one of the following elaborations from either the Year 3 or the Year 5 The Australian Curriculum, Science / Science Understanding / Earth and space science content areas.
- Year 3 Elaboration 4: Modelling the relative sizes and movement of the sun, Earth and moon (ACSSU048).
- Year 5 Elaboration 2: Modelling the relative sizes and movement of the sun, Earth and moon modelling the relative size of and distance between Earth, other planets in the solar system and the sun (ACSSU078)." http://nightskyonline.info/?p=2122
