1. Understand the pattern of development that would normally be expected for children and young people from birth – 19 yrs. 2.1 Explain the sequence and rate of each aspects of development that would normally be expected in children and young people from birth – 19 years. Children’s development is continuous and can be measured in a number of different ways. Although all children will develop at different rates and in different ways, the sequence in which they develop will be roughly the same as they need to have developed one skill, for example walking, before they move on to develop another such as running and jumping.
Uses gestures and sounds to communicate Can say “dada” and “mama” Responds to sound by making sounds. Can express happiness and displeasure. Likes to snuggle up for reading. Learns to wait before talking when someone is speaking. | Explores objects by shaking, banging, throwing or dropping.
Evidence will show that a child’s growth and development has many aspects including physical, motor, perceptual, cognitive, social-emotional, and language development. The concept of development is follows a unique pattern which involves social and cultural environments. These things influence the role of shaping the learning process of a child states Allen & Marotz, (2010). The concept of growth includes mild variations and simple irregularities. These mean that achievement of certain skills according to predictable sequence, many with individual variations, which are typical, and a cumulative process in which each new aspect of growth builds on earlier changes; each accomplishment builds from the previous learned skill states Allen & Marotz, (2010).
Future studies would benefit from acknowledgement of possible socio-economic and cultural differences as well as establishing the potential impact of power dynamics on responses given in the adult-child interview condition. Introduction Identity, based on sense-of-self or self-concept is believed to develop over a long period and as Maccoby (1980) suggests, “self-awareness develops incrementally and is produced by understandings which become more and more complex”. This suggestion is relevant since it highlights the idea that it continues to mature throughout childhood. The sense-of-self is divided into two steps- ‘I’ (‘self-as-subject’) and the ‘me’ (‘self-as-object’), where once a child has developed a certain level of self-awareness (the ‘I’), they are then ready to place themselves and be placed by others (the ‘me’). James (1892) These categories are used to define who they are, developing a sense- of-self.
CYP 3.1 2.3 Explain how the theories of development frameworks to support development influence current practice Researched from How Children Learn by Linda Pound Jean Piaget - Cognitive Piaget was interested in intellectual development. He identified 4 stages of development from birth through to adulthood. These are Sensorimotor Piaget called the first 2 years of a child's life the sensorimotor stage. This is when babies/toddlers knowledge and understanding are chiefly drawn from physical action and their sight, sound, taste, touch and smell (senses). Preoperational This is the stage from the age of 2 year up to the age of around 6 or 7 years old.
Module 3 Child Development (part 1F) The Learning outcomes for this module are designed to support the learner to: * Show a knowledge of child development * Show an understanding of major child development theories * Discuss different approaches to working with children * Have a working knowledge of The Early Years Foundation Stage 3 A (i) PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT Table 1 Please complete the following table showing your understanding of the different stages of children’s Physical development. Age Range | Explain the sequence and rate of development | 0-3 months | At birth, a baby's reflexes will allow them to turn their head to suckle when you touch their cheek , they can bend and extend their fingers, arms and legs.By 1 month, their eyes can follow a moving light (however they may be able to do this for only a few seconds at a time ).Between 4 to 8 weeks, they will lift their head when put on their tummy.By about 6 weeks, their eyes can move together most of the time , and by 2 months, they will be able to kick their legs .By approximately 2-3 months of age , they should also be able to watch and follow a moving face . | 3 – 6 months | Somewhere between 4 to 6 months of age babies usually begin to roll over . At 4 months, they can lift their head and chest when placed on their tummy. By around 3 months, they play with their fingers and look at their hands with interest , and at 3 to 4 months, they can grasp objects .
Transitions and Challenges in Adulthood One's physical, cognitive and social-emotional development must be examined regards to early and middle childhood modification. The three stages of child development focus on early childhood, middle childhood, and adolescence regards to transition and developmental processes. In addition, major challenges, including health and fitness, and expertise and creativity must continue to be analyzed through clinical practice and further research (Berk, 2010). Developmental processes One's first year of life is extremely critical for healthy advancement, including his physical, cognitive, and social-emotional development (Berk, 2010). The fact is when a child begins to develop; the influences around him will determine his readiness and later his success or failure in his lifespan.
Unit 1 Child and young person development Introduction 1. Know the main stages of child and young person development. 1.1 Describe the expected pattern of children and young people’s development from birth to 19 years, to include: a) physical development b) communication and intellectual development c) social, emotional and behavioural development. In order to understand and support a child and young persons development, we have to look at the “whole” child.This means looking at all the areas of their development in relation to the particular aspect of development that is being focused on.It is important to remember that development is a holistic process, and that each child is unique and will develop in their own way, and at different rates. With this in mind we can look at a child and young persons development in more of a sequence across ages, rather than different stages at fixed ages.
This paper will discuss the important stages in the development as to how the child changes from physical, emotional, social, and cognitive perspective throughout this time period. Physical Change Physical changes in early childhood are accompanied by rapid changes in the child’s cognitive and language development. From the beginning of birth they use all their senses to attend to their environment. They begin to develop a sense of cause and effect from their actions and the responses of caregivers. As the new born grows into a young person he can take care of his or her own body and interact effectively with others.
Introduction For professional carers, it is important to know and understand what is meant by child development and what is required to support it. There are five main areas of development: physical, intellectual, language, emotional and social (MCI Module 2, undated). These areas are closely linked and influence each other. In this essay I will focus on defining and identifying the physical and psychological needs of young children. I will also discuss how carers/educators acknowledge these needs and meet them in an early years settings.
