Shari (6 years old) and Jonathan (1 year old) live with their mother in a small apartment in the inner city. Their father is currently in prison for assault and burglary and is a repeat offender. The family is African American and the children’s maternal grandmother and aunt are concerned because the children’s mother abuses drugs and alcohol.
Child Protection Services was notified by a neighbor that the mother had not been seen for several days but the children could be heard inside the apartment. An investigation identified that the children were in the apartment alone and had apparently been for a few days. There was no food and the children had apparently eaten bread, milk and chips. Shari had been changing Jonathan’s diaper and giving him milk in a bottle but the milk was gone so she had resorted to water. Shari stated that he cried a lot but she didn’t know what else to do. Aside from being hungry and unsupervised, the children appeared to be healthy. They were removed from the home and placed in emergency foster home. The foster parent took them for a medical check-up at the neighborhood clinic. The only medical recommendations were to place the children on a healthy diet.
The mother contacted CPS two days later (contact information had been left at her apartment) and requested to have her “children back”. She did admit that she did occasionally “party and leaves the children for 2-3 days” but she always goes back home. She states that she is not an addict but likes to have a break from taking care of the kids once in awhile.
1. If you were the social worker what information would you want to gain from the mother?
2. How would you explain the process of having the children returned – what would the mother be expected to do/change?
3. What type of plan should be created for the children?
4. How might this type of early life experience affect the children long term?

one of the more significant interactions that occur within ecosystems is competiton. Simply stated, competition occurs when two or more individuals have need of a resource that is in limited supply. For discussion this week, I’d like everyone to tell a story about a time when you had to compete with others when there wasn’t enough of something for everyone to have the amount they desired. Examples could include a particular dish at a family meal, supplies for a project at school or work, or even space to occupy in a crowded setting. As you develop your response please include the following:

The item that you competed for and the circumstances in which the competition occurred.
Your initial reaction to the need to compete.
The approach you took to try to acquire your share of the resource.
The responses of others to your approach.
The final outcome for you, the others around you, and the resource in question.
A description of how the outcome of the competition was similar to the ones that occur among natural populations (i.e. resource partitioning, exclusion of competitors, etc.)
Your thoughts about how competition among humans for resources affects natural ecosystems.
A gentle reminder, please try to submit your response early enough for others to read and comment. I really want to start seeing interaction amongst the class.

All thats needed is about 2 paragraphs of a brief discription of a story about a time in your life. I’m a woman with six children so you can write as if it was in my 20’s or as a mother in competions with other mothers. hahaha. Send email with any questions. My daughter is in cheer leading my son is a huge track and football athlete. ideas. This is and Ecology class I have to right this quick statement for.

Write a well-developed and well-supported essay in which you analyze the importance of two of
those primary sources (one from ch. 15 and one from ch. 16), and discuss the multiple ways
those documents are important for the study of the United States from Reconstruction to the
latter part of the 19th century (and why that might matter for the 20th century).
For each primary source, provide us with the historical context necessary to fully
understanding that document- tell us the history behind that document (bring in knowledge
you’ve gained from Schaller’s ch’s 15 and 16 and from your films).
For example, if writing about the sources about native peoples: tell us about the history of
U.S. policy towards native peoples during the latter part of the 19th century- what was the
relationship? How did native peoples fare as the English-speaking population was expanding West
during the course of the 19th century? How did Indian peoples respond to the systematic expansion
of Whites onto territories they had lived on for generations?
Then, tell us all about that document- who wrote it? When? To whom? For what purpose?
What does it say? What are some assumptions behind it? Why is it historically significant? Discuss
all of the ways this document is important for our understanding of American history during
the second half of the 19th century.
For example, when analyzing Frederick Jackson Turner’s “Significance of the Frontier in
American History,” what are some assumptions behind this grand statement? What are some
consequences of it? How does it relate to Manifest Destiny? Be sure to bring in knowledge you’ve
gained from our film “To Conquer or Redeem: Manifest Destiny.”
When analyzing Primary sources from our textbook that are photographs and/or political
cartoons – provide deep historical context and analysis that goes beyond a mere summary and first
impressions.
Be sure to provide historical context from our textbook and from our films on this topicshow
us that you’re making connections to our readings and the films that you’re watching and
taking notes on. Providing historical context is essential to this essay.
Length of this essay: about two well developed paragraphs with specific examples for each
document. Total length of this essay: 4-5 well developed paragraphs (800-1,200 words).
Citing evidence: Because we are all reading the same documents from the same books,
when citing a document, you can just give us the title of the document and then the page number in
parenthesis. When bringing in a quote from Schaller, you can simply cite it as: (Schaller, p. 541),
for example. When bringing in a quote from one of our required films, you can simply cite it as:
(“The Dispersal of the Tribes,” or “500 Nations: Wounded Knee”), for example.
RESPONSE ESSAY: You are also required to respond to at least one other student’s original
essay during the same time period. You can amplify on a point made, raise a related point,
discuss the issue in relation to other documents, agree or disagree with supporting evidence, and/or
raise new informed questions that we should all think about. Length of response essay: at least
one thoughtful, well-developed, and well-supported paragraph. These are response essays, not
“good job” notes- show us that you’re thinking deeply about this material and that you’re making
additional connections to our material. Be aware of the due date for your response essay as well.
