(Peterson, 2010) Joel - Childhood 2-10 throughout this period, children become progressively independent from their parents as they learn to do things themselves and additional achievement self-control. Throughout this period, children's intellectual abilities develop, and they also start to grow an understanding of what is right and wrong. (Peterson, 2010) Connie - Infancy0-2 While the infant is reliant on mothers for most things, numerous psychological features are fast emerging. Throughout this period, the connection that develops between the infant and their mother is significant in relations of the infant's advanced sensitive development. (Peterson, 2010) b) Describe the current issues and changes you would expect to observe in each of the following human development areas: • Physical • Cognitive • Emotional and psychological • Social • Sexual 20 marks Alice Physical: The present problems for Alice would be the health consequences of her habitual smoking and drinking.
1.2 DESCRIBE WITH EXAMPLES HOW TO BEHAVE APPROPRIATELY FOR A CHILD OR YOUNG PERSON’S STAGE OF DEVELOPMENT? First impressions are important for everyone not only child but for parents and people we work with. Children of different age will need varying levels of attention; some may be more advanced than others. Children with “special needs” will need more help. When we work with infants at nursery to help them with basics vocabulary and numeracy we need to choose media that will help them understand.
If you know what is going on with the child’s development, practitioners have the opportunity to support the child, providing good surroundings for the child’s development to progress in. It will help to work out the type of play activities they’ll enjoy and how you can support their independence skills. Different aged children have different needs. Making checks to see children are developing and growing well is important as it indicates problems which can notify you as early as possible. Most checks are conducted by doctors, however in the early years, practitioners and parents notice this first.
Explain how different types of interventions can promote positive outcomes from children and young people where development is not following the expected pattern. If during the monitoring of a child’s development at any age, it is identified as having difficulties, then the child and family may need extra support to help the child reach its goals and achieve positive outcomes. Nottinghamcity.gov.uk "Early intervention can help children from pregnancy to 18 years, not only when they are very young" All the intervention programmes and professionals are there to help children and young people become more engaged and motivated, by helping them to communicate more effectively, to control behavioural issues, to control and strengthen physical movements,
Children of separated couples may also perform worse at school and have poorer future employment prospects. Some children are less likely to have successful relationships themselves as adults. However, it is not inevitable that all children will suffer long term harm from the break up of a parent’s relationship. Reference: One plus One strengthening relationships www.oneplusone.org.uk New Sibling: Very young children will find this the most difficult to cope with, vying for parental attention for the first time. Some children may ‘play up’ in response to the stress of the life change.
As a practitioner I encourage children to explore, observe, solve problems, predict, discuss and consider. I feel that ICT resources can provide tools for using these skills as well as examined in their own right. ICT and everyday technology is often not being recognised enough as people think "computers" for technology. The Early years Sector, as well as parents of young children has long debated the relevance of ICT, with views ranging from those who believe it could result in socio-economic benefits (DFES, 2001) to Sigman’s opinion that ICT is completely inappropriate in early year’s settings, being detrimental to both children’s health and standards of education (O’Hara, 2004
Playing and learning in children’s education E1/A In (appendices 1), the Nursery World article written by Fisher. J (2012) talks about how the role of the practitioner should plan for a balance between adult –led learning and child –led learning. This means that the adult needs to observe children closely to see how they are developing. When the practitioner stands back during child-led play, they can gain lots of information about a child, how they use their environments and resources. This helps to meet their learning needs if the practitioner then uses this information to plan the next steps.
Some of these disabilities are caused by the parent not taking full care of themselves and the baby. When a parent or doctor notices that something is not right or that the children may have a disability intervention is needed as early as possible. Early intervention makes a big difference in a child’s life. When a parent accepts the fact that their child has a disabilities it can open up their eyes to see that there are many options available to help assist and even overcome certain disabilities. With early intervention there are many services that parents can use relating to their child’s disabilities.
CYPOP1.1 Development and Learning or Babies and Young Children We know that what children are born with and the experiences they have will shape their development. This means that whatever talent and skill a child is born with may not be realised unless the child has a chance to express this and is encouraged by adults. From the moment they are conceived a child’s development begins. The child’s features are decided genetically, although their height will also be affected by the child’s later environment and diet. Sometimes genetic information can be faulty, meaning the process at conception can sometimes be faulty.
