In the developing field of Early Years, it is becoming more and more important for practitioners to have an awareness of the many topics that impact on the provision available to young children. Existing and new initiatives being discussed and reflected upon by the evaluation of article reports and how these topics may impact upon my own practice by using reflection. Module 4FD028. Learning Outcome 1 Key concepts and approaches in Early Years provision and the requirement for quality provision and practice for children. Considering the work of key pioneers and current experts with links to child development theory.
From birth to 19 years a child should achieve a number of significant development areas, these are determined by a sequence of development and the rate of development. Rate/Speed involves a time frame linked to age. Sequence/Order involves patterns and an order of development linked to body, mobility and intellectual growth - sequence can include an order that's both positive and negative - deterioration. Rate - what happens at 1 year old, 24 months old, 7 years old? Sequence - how things happen in an expected order, sequence i.e.
Support children and young people to achieve their learning potential Understand the legislation and policies that underpin education and learning for children and young people 1.2: explain how policies have influenced access to learning opportunities for children and young people Policies have influenced access to learning opportunities for children and young people because of the: * UNCRC - articles 19, 23, 24, 28 most specifically, 29 and 30. * Children’s act... 2004 gives rise to ECM (Every Child Matters) * Education act * Equality act * National policy Every child matters * National policy Every parent matters & parental perspective * Home nation frameworks: EYFS * Wales: foundation phase * Northern Ireland: foundation stage * Scotland: Pre-birth to 3 and curriculum for excellence
The last of the sensorimotor stage is the tertiary circular reaction. A toddler is about twelve to twenty four months when the tertiary circular reaction takes place. He or she will develop mental representation. In the sensorimotor study, Piaget wanted to know when children acquired object permanence. Piaget hid a toy under a blanket, while the child was watching, and observed whether or
Unit Title: Understand child and young people’s development. Unit Number: CYP Core 3.1 Unit Reference: L/601/1693 1. Explain the sequence and rate of each aspect of development from birth to 19 years. 1.2 Explain the difference between sequence of development and rate of development and why the difference is important. The sequence of development is a pattern in which a child develops from infancy, through childhood and into adulthood, these are usually categorized in two ways: personal factors: factors that are specific to a child such as: disabilty, health status, impairment, learning difficulty, bereavment etc.
These could have included the influence of a prominent adult figure or unconscious motives. In today’s day and age, Socialisation processes can be affected by biological, sociocultural, and interactive factors. Socialisation processes can also be considered to be dynamic and reciprocal, with aims and methods change and that the child is able to contribute to their own developmental outcomes (Laible and Thompson, 2007). Middle childhood shows a substantial time in which the child is able to grow in the areas of social and emotional development. It is predominantly during this time that children begin to mature, the parents still maintain a strong influence over them but there are other adults who also become influential in this period, such as teachers and peers.
WHAT ARE THE EFFECTS OF EARLY SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT IN CHILDREN? Everybody is focusing on how early social development affects children. Psychologist made research and came up with a solution to prove why early social development affects children. In scientific terms, early childhood development is a process through which the young children grow and thrive physically, mentally, socially, emotionally and morally. It begins from conception and extends up to 8 years of age.
Piaget called these processes Assimilation and Accommodation. “Assimilation refers to using existing mental patterns in new situations. Accommodation is existing ideas are modified to fit new requirements” (Mitterer, 2011, 2008). Each of these processes is used throughout life as a child adapts progressively more to their environment in a more intricate method. Stages of Cognitive Development | Stage Explanation | Behavior Observed | Location/Behavior Description | Sensorimotor Stage(0 – 2 Years) | In this stage the infant gets an understanding of the world with sensory experiences (seeing, hearing) with physical
Family Dynamics and Child Development Author Institution Family dynamics refers to a particular way of living within a family, their relation to one another and how their interactions lead to development of a given behavior later on in life. Child development occurs right from the onset of birth, therefore the is need for viewing children as small adults and paying attention to the development of cognitive abilities, physical growth and use of language occurring during childhood and adolescence stage. The importance of understanding child development is crucial since it allows a person to appreciate the physical, social, emotional, cognitive and educational growth that a child goes through in order to be a mature being (Khasgiwala, 1993). Some important theories of child development are referred to as grand theories: these describe all aspects of development by use of stage approach. Others are called mini theories; these on the other hand deals on a limited aspect of development for instance social and cognitive growth.
Features of early adulthood - Psycho/social The late teens and early twenties is a time where young people face many challenges and feelings of uncertainty. It is when adolescence is left behind and adult responsibilities are assumed. However these routes to adult responsibilities are highly diverse in timing and order across individuals. During these years of extended exploration, young people prolong identity development as they explore alternatives in breadth and depth. These alternatives may be work, personal beliefs, values, love and those with the economic resources can explore alternatives in education.
