EYMP 5 1.2 Explain how speech,language and communication skills support each of the following areas in childrens development:learning,emotional,behaviour,social Learning – Language is needed to understand concepts, participate in problem solving, and to develop ideas and opinions. Language enables a child to express their thoughts and feelings, and to think about abstract notions helping them to make sense of their world. •Emotional – Children need to be able to express themselves, if they have difficulty doing this it can have a damaging impact on their self esteem and identity. This can lead to a lack of confidence. Expressing their emotions and talking about them can help children to understand acceptable social behaviour.
Creative learning is about helping children develop imaginative thinking through an exploration of materials, objects and problem-solving skills, such as construction and ICT and crafts. It is about how children are actively involved in their own learning and ability to make choices and decisions. It is also about giving children opportunities to make connections between different areas and to relate to them. Some creative learning activities may be goal orientated
Augmentative communication is a way to help with language disorders. Assistive technology devices such as computers or hand held devices should be used to accomplish augmentative communication. This will allow the children to communicate their needs. Verbal communication consists of vocabulary which means the use of the words and expressions that can be understood. The children can respond to questions accordingly to the tone of the voice.

Physical activity and movement help stimulate much brain growth and facilitate key connections for learning, regular exercise and engagements in all varieties of physical activity are critical for healthy brain development in children. pre mobile needs time to develop muscle tone so they can begin to crawl. These activities are used good for physical development at our preschool indoors stairs, wooden large bricks to climb and balance on, moving to music, balls to roll, soft play to climb on and move about on. Sit and ride toy which changes into a walker. Outside slides, logs to climb and balance on, trikes and balance bikes, tractor wheels to climb and use to pull on, balls to roll.
EDU10002 Understanding Language and Literature Assessment 1 There are many theoretical perspectives explaining how children develop and acquire language. Two well recognised cognitive psychologists, Jean Piaget and Lev Vygotsky, developed theories that addressed cognitive development and learning among children. Both theorists explore the development of a child’s way of thinking and examine the processes in how these developmental stages occur and impact on a child’s acquisition of language. Whilst there are similarities between the two theories, there are also significant differences. Language acquisition is the cognitive process where humans acquire the ability to perceive and comprehend language, as well as to produce and use words and sentences to communicate with one another (Friederici 2011).
There are interrelated components of intellectual development which are: • Perception • Thinking • Language • Problem-solving • Concepts • Memory • Concentration • Creativity Communication Development: This area develops the ability of the child to understand and use of the language. Learn to communicate with others, as language is the key factor in all aspects of child’s development. It is the
Explain the difference between sequence and rate of each aspect of development from birth – 19 years Child development is a process every child goes through. This process involves learning and mastering skills like sitting, walking, talking, skipping, and tying shoes. Children learn these skills, called developmental milestones, during predictable time periods. A developmental milestone is a skill that a child acquires within a specific time frame. For instance, one developmental milestone is learning to walk.
Unit 82 Creative learning is about children being actively involved in their own learning and their ability to make their own choices and decisions. Helping children to develop imaginative thinking which can be achieved through exploration of a creative environment of various materials and objects. Helping children to develop problem solving skills such as construction and Ict. Providing children with opportunities to make connections between different areas and to be able to relate to them. Some creative learning activities may be focused on achieving a goal for example making a den.
The development of language, literacy and numeracy are fundamental to enable children to function responsibly in everyday life and contribute effectively to society. Language is the most important aspect in life. Language is used to express inner thoughts and emotions. Literacy is the ability to use this learned language to read, write, speak and listen enabling effective communication. In the same vein numeracy is defined as being literate in managing and responding to the mathematical demands of life and having the ability to reason.
