Understand Child Development

598 Words3 Pages

To understand the development of children and how they grow the best way is to have a physical contact with them. We create an environment for studying cognitive, social/emotional and physical development of any child we chose. The opportunity to interact with children allowed me to see things that prevented the growth of children and improved the growth of children. Carlton academy gave me the opportunity to understand their development. I went to Carlton academy center on Tuesday from 12:00pm to 2:00 pm or 3:00pm and on Thursday from 3:00pm to 5:00pm or 6:00pm.

    A major debate in the field of child cognitive development is whether certain aspects of development are learned or innate. It is a continuation of the classic dispute between the nature vs nurture elements of development. The chapter and articles delve into this debate with visual and auditory perception in children and provides empirical evidence towards whether or not infants are born with the ability to detect and distinguish these perceptions. There is a large consensus that perceptual functioning in children reaches adult like levels fairly quickly during the first year of development Siegler (2005).

  • Child Development Environment

    While reading chapter 12 The Physical Environment of our textbook Infants, Toddlers, and Caregivers I stumbled across a quote that stuck with me throughout this project. According to Louis Torelli “A well, designed environment…supports infants’ and toddlers’ emotional well being, stimulates their senses and challenges their motor skills. A well designed group care environment promotes children’s’ individual and social development.” This quote is so meaningful because before doing this project I never realized the layout of your classroom is so influential on the success of your students. When creating the budget, it was really an eye opening experience to how much little and big things that complete a classroom.

  • Milestones Child Development

    Health professionals should be constantly and consistently assessing for signs of abnormal development in children of all ages. Babies tend to develop at their own speed, sometimes falling behind in one area or advanced in another. As long as development falls within a normal range, reaching a milestone late is usually not a cause for concern. However, if a baby consistently reaches milestones much later than expected, it should be discussed with that child’s provider. Babies develop in several areas, and parents and nurses should take notice if a child is having difficulty in a particular one.

  • Supportive Child Development

    151 Words  | 1 Pages

    BACKGROUND STUDY (Moore, 1987) Children's development is strongly influenced by the presence of a supportive child care environment. Because children are in the course of developing physical, cognitive, social, and emotional skills, their interactions with the physical environment can have long-lasting effects. Understanding the milestones of child development and their relation to the physical environment of the child is fundamental in creating spaces that provide children with opportunities to blossom and advance at a young age (Bunker-Hellmich, 2003). Children, like adults, are influenced in how they feel and behave by the total environment and the physical setting in particular.

    Human development refers to the progress that human beings make in their lives. Alternatively, childhood development is the process through which a child advances from infancy to independence. This type of development has different domains, namely, physical (changes in the body), cognitive (changes in thinking), social (changes in the way an individual relate to others) and emotional (changes in an individual’s personality or feelings) domains (Woolfolk, 2012). These domains uniquely interact in a way that a child’s progress in one area, leads to achievement in another field. For instance, when a child learns how to walk or talk, he or she is exposed to a new environment that advances their development.
