Piaget's Theory According to Piaget, children in the earliest stages of life, from birth to 2 years, exist in a sensory-motor stage, where they learn to move and operate their bodies as well as begin to understand simple symbols. In this early stage, children are curious about their environment and begin to learn how to interpret it in sensible ways. The next stage is called preoperational thought and lasts from the ages of 2 until 7. In this stage, children develop stable concepts, mental reasoning and imagination. What is distinct and important about Piaget's views is that he considered imagination and play to be crucial to enable every child to develop his own sense of self and to foster healthy learning habits.
Cu2935 Support Children’s Care, Learning and Development in Early years 1. Understand the import of early year’s curriculum models on the application of theoretical perspectives of children’s care, learning and development. 1.1 Outline early year’s curriculum models supporting children’s care, learning and development. Every child deserves the best possible start in life and the support enables them to fulfil their potential. Children develop quickly in the early years and a child’s experiences between birth and age 5 have a major impact on their future life.
CHCLD415A – Confirm client developmental status: Assignment 1 Rhonda Jolliffe 8/1/2015 Questions1. for each family member: a) Identify the current stage of lifespan development 10 marks Alice – Adolescence -10-20 Start of puberty. It is controlled by seeking individuality from parents and emerging one's personality. Compared to the child, a teenager's thought courses are more consistent, composite and idealistic. (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.
Unit 22 – Understanding Child and Young Person Development 1.1/1.2 Explain the sequence and rate of development from birth-19yrs. Explain the difference between sequence and rate of development and why the difference is important. Children’s development is continuous, so it is important to look at the sequence and rate of each aspect of development as a way of monitoring their progress. Although children develop in many different ways and at many different rates, the sequence that they follow is understood to be roughly the same. The sequence that children will follow has quite an obvious pattern with the child learning to hold their head up before they can sit, to sit independently before they can stand, to stand independently before they can walk and to walk confidently before they can run.
These goals are important as they form the building blocks for children’s later education and they make available the basis for planning and learning throughout the EYFS. The aim is that each child can meet the goals by the end of their reception year. However, some children would have exceeded the goals whilst others may still be working towards the goals by the end of the EYFS. The seven arears of learning and development mentioned above are: Communication and language- This is about the child listening and attention, understanding, and speaking. Physical development- How children gain control of their bodies, use equipment’s successfully and how they learn to use equipment.
UNIT 201 Child and young person development Outcome 1 Know the main stages of child and young persons development 1.1 Describe the expected patterns of children and young persons development from birth to 19 years, to include. From birth, a child will start to grow and learn. Through nurture and stimulation they will learn movements, speech and language, and what is right and wrong. Through nurseries and schools they will learn social skills. Life skills will teach them about behaviour and emotional development.
REFLECTIVE JOURNAL ECE 205 Introduction to Child Development a. What has impacted your learning the most throughout this course? This course has impacted my knowledge of how important changes are that occur when a child grows and develops. This includes being physically healthy, mentally alert, emotionally sound, socially competent and ready to learn. As per research the first three years are critical in the shaping of a child’s brain construction and early experiences is the base of the brain’s organizational development leading throughout life.
I will make sure my child is developing fine motor skills at the correct pace. The final concept I learned are the milestones in motor development. I found the chart on page 250 to be extremely helpful, since it provides information on the motor skills that can occur during young childhood (Martin & Fabes, 2009, p. 250). I will definitely be using this chart for future growth when I have my own
NCFE Level 3 Supporting Teaching & Learning in Schools Assignment 1 Unit 1: Child and Young Person Development Task 1: Explain the sequence and rate of each aspect of development from birth - 19 years. Sequential development and the rate of development are different but they tend to work with one another; sequential development states that a child must finish one area of development before moving on to another, the rate of development refers to the pace at which a child develops. Lev Vygotsky (1896-1934) proposed that development is the gaining of skills in all aspects of a person’s life; he saw child development as consisting of passing through a series of periods of stable development. These periods and different stages of stable development are referred to as the rate of development; each category falls into a group of years such as stage 1 being infancy which is 0-3 years, stage 2 being pre-school/school which is age is 3-7 years, stage 3 being school age which is 7-12 years and stage 4 being puberty which is 12-19 years. Throughout these developmental stages there are aspects which define the standard development that a person is measured against; these are physical, cognitive, language and speech, social and emotional, and sex/ gender identity.
CYP31 Understand child and young person development Outcome 1 Understand the expected pattern of development for children and young people from birth – 19 years 1.1 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. Birth to 1 year Physical Development Physical development is usually very rapid early on in the child’s development. Within weeks of being born a baby will start to smile, respond to sounds and environments around
