Adoptive Parenthood

Adoption by lesbian and gay parents is becomingly increasingly common. This entry presents an overview of the limited research that has focused on lesbian and gay adoptive parents. Specifically, this entry addresses the experience of adoptive parenthood for lesbian and gay parents, with emphasis on the decision-making process (that is, choosing adoption, choosing an agency, choosing an adoption type, and specifying child characteristics), the transition to adoptive parenthood, the psychological adjustment of the adoptive parents and their children, and the adoptive parent–child relationship. We end with recommendations for future research and implications for practitioners and policymakers.

Many of the out-of-school experiences young children have deal with geometrical concepts and understandings. Thus children have an intuitive feeling for much of the geometry content introduced in the lower elementary grades. The “geometry tile” described in this article can be used to develop and extend these beginning concepts. Through the use of handson materials like these tiles, children are better able to visualize geometric shapes and to communicate the involved spatial relationships. They are also able to begin dealing with measurement in a very concrete manner.
