Describe, using objective language and descriptive phrasing, at least three developmental milestones you saw in your observation of the child
As you discovered in Week 2, formally observing childrens behavior is an important step in determining their current stage of development and enhancing your ability to support and foster growth. The child you observed last week is now a toddler! Following the same child, you will watch this weeks video and answer the prompts below. Like last week, in this discussion, you will use a developmental checklist when conducting your observation. However, do not submit the checklist to this discussion area. It will be submitted with the assignment within the required template. For now, use it to gather information from your observation.

Describe how exploring your research question improved your understanding of the historical roots of your current event. How did learning more about the subject of your research question help you identify events from the past that contributed or led up to your current event?
Overview
Over the past few weeks, you have examined how context, perspective, and bias impact what we know about history and how we talk about it. You also started to make connections between your research question, historical event, and current event. In this activity, you will build upon that work to consider the historical roots of your current event and what the narratives would be like if told from a different perspective.
Prompt
Use the provided Module Five Activity Template: Historical Interpretations Word Document to complete this activity. First, you will reflect on the process of researching the subject of your historical research question and its connection to your current event. You will then consider the impact of bias on our existing knowledge. Finally, you will address how the narratives about your historical and current events would change if told from alternative viewpoints.
Specifically, you must address the following rubric criteria:
-Describe how exploring your research question improved your understanding of the historical roots of your current event.
How did learning more about the subject of your research question help you identify events from the past that contributed or led up to your current event?
=Explain how biased perspectives influence what is known about both your historical and current events.
Support your points with relevant course resources.
-Propose how the narrative about your historical event might change if it were told from a missing perspective.
Refer to the missing perspective you identified in this weeks discussion. How might this point of view change the story about your historical event? For example, would the narrative focus on different details, or would those details be interpreted differently?
-Propose how the narrative about your current event might change if it were told from a missing perspective.
Expand on the missing perspective from criteria three and apply it to your current event. How might your current event be understood differently by examining it from that perspective?
Haibun is a poetry form that combines a haiku with a prose poem. Haibun prose is usually descriptive. It uses sparse, poetic imagery to evoke a sensory impression in the reader. The section of prose is then followed by a haiku that serves to deepen the meaning of the prose, either by intensifying its themes or serving as a juxtaposition to the proses content. What Are the Origins of Haibun Poetry?
Haibun is a poetry form that combines a haiku with a prose poem. Haibun prose is usually descriptive. It uses sparse, poetic imagery to evoke a sensory impression in the reader. The section of prose is then followed by a haiku that serves to deepen the meaning of the prose, either by intensifying its themes or serving as a juxtaposition to the proses content.
What Are the Origins of Haibun Poetry?
The first recorded use of the word haibun came in the seventeenth century from Japanese poet Matsuo Basho. Basho popularized the haibun form, writing haibun poems as part of his ongoing travel journal. The most famous of these traditional haibun poems is Oku no Hasomichi, or Narrow Road to the Deep North (also translated as The Narrow Road to the Interior).
What Are the Characteristics of Haibun Poetry?
The subject matter of a haibun can vary widely, though the prose sections commonly describe an unfolding scene, a slice of life, a character sketch or a special moment. These sections typically consist of a few paragraphs written in a sparse, imagistic haikaistyle that attempt to portray the scene in an impartial or objective manner. Haibun prose can be written in first-person singular, first-person plural, or third person.
The accompanying haiku usually appears at the end of the haibun composition, though in some cases it may appear in the middle or at the very beginning. The haiku is meant to be in conversation with the prose section, serving as a thematic accompaniment, juxtaposition, or grace note that deepens the meaning of the piece as a whole.
How to Write a Haibun:
4 Tips for Writing Haibun Poetry
Generally, the only elements required to qualify a piece of writing as haibun are the inclusion of one or more prose paragraphs and one or more haiku. However, the form is constantly evolving, and haibun scholar and writer Jeffrey Woodward points out that the modern haibun may vary drastically in both its content and formal elements. Here are some tips to keep in mind as you write haibun:
1. Keep your prose simple. Haibun generally features concise yet detail-heavy paragraphs in the prose sections. Much like a good short story, the prose of the haibun is meant to state the theme and describe the setting as quickly and as simply as possible. In many ways, the prose is supposed to reflect the spirit of a haiku: sparse, imagistic, and powerful in its brevity. When writing prose, try to eliminate any inessential or extraneous words, with the goal of presenting your language as sparsely as possible.
2. Evoke the senses. The best haibun prose has the ability to describe evocative sensory details. The haibun attempts to place the reader in a specific location or evoke a specific mood without imposing the authors own meaning or philosophical comment on the world being described. In other words, the haibun attempts to show, not tellwhich can be done effectively through an abundance of sensory detail.
3. Write in the present tense. One of the primary goals of haibun is to evoke a sense of being there within the reader; in other words, making them feel as though theyre experiencing the events or sensory details of the haibun as they are happening. Though its not a hard and fast rule, many haibun writers accomplish this by writing in the present tense, which helps to create the illusion that the events of the haibun are unfolding as the reader experiences them.
4. Make sure your haiku adds meaning. Regardless of whether you place your haiku towards the beginning, middle, or end of the haibun, you should make sure that the haiku does more than restate the information of your prose. The haiku should deepen the meaning of the piece of the whole, either by offering a startling juxtaposition, a reflection of one of the themes in the prose, or a complimentary detail.
