They can quickly fall behind from peers of the same age. They may find it difficult to interact and make friends with others who are more advanced. They may struggle with intellectual development memory and concentration. Delayed speech development A child who has limited or no speech could be a cause great concern. This would affect a child’s social and communication development as he/she would find it difficult to listen and speak to peers staff and carers this could also affect their behaviour possibly becoming frustrated and quite angry Whatever concern you have about a Childs development in any area, you should always share it with others.
Children who are lacking in confidence or are depressed may lack in motivation and will therefore not try out new skills. In my setting, if this is the case we will try to motivate the child, or if there is something more to it we try to find out why the child is feeling depressed, and get to the route of the problem. Another factor could be physical reasons, some children’s developmental plan could affected by their genetic code, this may mean that they are slow to develop in many areas for no specific reason. Children’s development could also be slowed down by difficulties in physical growth. In this cases in my setting we would try and encourage the child and meet that child’s individual needs by not pushing them to do the tasks of a more developed child.
If we go and show bad attitude and show that we are negative to certain people around them. Then we could make children to be the same way, which is not a good example to them as young children don’t know the differences between right and wrong. As a teaching assistant it is my duty and responsibility to respect the children with there needs and accept them for who they are. The way I can do this is if I think about my own beliefs and opinions so I can learn not to judge others on the basis of their race, gender or religion etc. In my line
Additionally the child’s centred approach lets the children find their own learning styles and boosts the child’s confidence. Significantly enhancing their social and emotional growth ensuring children begin to gain high self-esteem with not just now but in the future, now that I know this I will encourage children to work independently and plan activities that involve problem solving. In different setting the adults have to take lead by organising different activities that will inspire the children to learn but in a safe environment. It is always key to remember that the child’s safety is paramount and everything else comes second. To successfully fur fill the requirements I as the adult will have to provide and make resources accessible so that I can interact with the children and observe and reflect on each of the child’s learning experiences.

1.3.1 Explain how to monitor children and young people’s development using different methods: When children and young people’s development is monitored and assessed, it enables practitioners and professionals to notice when they are not progressing as expected. Therefore, if necessary checks can be made to see why children are not developing as expected. If we intervene in early years, they will be able to get appropriate support they need and their development is promoted. There are several methods of monitoring children’s development. Observations play a very important part in assessing the children’s development.
This helps us as care providers to learn about that particular child and their rate of development and their ability to do things. No one child is the same as another. Not every child develops at the same rate as others. Therefore, promoting one on one time with each child is important. Have fun with children.
The principle of a positive relationship with Children, young people and adults is to be comfortable with the person you are talking with and trust them. In a situation where a child/ adult feel frightened or undermined or not heard, he or she may not open up. The foundation of a good relationship is trusting, As Adults who work with children, we can help develop our relationship with them by doings things that build their trust. For example if we keep a promise we made to them, this will show the child we are trustworthy. It is important that find effective ways to communicate positively with children, young people and Adults.
1. Communication and professional relationships with children, young people and adults Explain why effective communication is important in developing positive relationships with: * Children * Young people * Adults Effective communication is fundamental in building positive and better enable to build strong relationships with children, young people and adults alike. Working with children requires us to build relationships with them quickly When children feel comfortable, safe & secure around settings with us they can separate more easily from their parents and children are more likely to participate in the play and learning activities if they are secure emotionally they are less likely to show unwanted behaviour as we are able to recognise and meet their needs much more efficiently. Without a positive and supportive attitude there will be no trust and honesty between yourself and the children. They will not feel like they can talk to you which may mean they could be keeping something important inside, which could affect their learning or social skills We would not like to be spoken to in a negative way so therefore we should also be careful of how we speak to others too.
