Child Observation Report

During this stage, infants use their hands, mouth, ears, and eyes to solve problems. For example, when an infant may play with a Jack-in-the-box, the infant will be able to hear, see, and feel the crank as he is winding it up. As the infant continues to wind the “box” Jack will then pop out; solving the problem. Secondly, there is the preoperational stage which ranges from two-years of age to seven years old. The preoperational stage deals with language development and the make-believing play, by using symbols learned in the first stage of sensorimotor. Additionally, the concrete operational stage ranges from seven years to eleven-years-old. While in the concrete operational stage there is more logical reasoning to actions such as determining how much of their favorite beverage may remain. Not to mention, during this stage the child also begins to have a sense of organization with objects. For instance, a young boy that arranges his toys in order from most favorite to least would also be an example of the concrete operational stage. Lastly, the final stage in Piaget’s theory is formal operational from eleven years of age and beyond. In the formal operational stage, adolescents can solve more abstract

The concrete operational stage occurs during seven to eleven years of age. Children are now able to perform concrete operations, such as math. They also develop the ability to reason logically if it isn’t abstract. Seriation and transitivity are also included in this stage. Seriation, a mastery task, is when children can order numbers, objects, etc. into a correct order with things such as numerical order or length. (Santrock)

Piaget claims that before the beginning of this stage, children 's ideas about different objects, are formed and dominated by the appearance of the object. For example, there appears to be more blocks when they are spread out, than when they are in a small pile. During the Concrete Operational Stage, children gradually develop the ability to 'conserve ', or learn that objects are not always the way that they appear to be. This occurs when children are able to take in many different aspects of an object, simply through looking at it. Children are able to begin to imagine different scenarios, or 'what if ' something was to happen. This is because they now have more 'operational ' thought. Children are generally first able to conserve ideas about objects with which they are most comfortable. Once children have learnt to conserve, they learn about 'reversibility '. This means that they learn that if things are changed, they will still be the same as they used to be. For example, they learn that if they spread out the pile of blocks, there are still as many there as before, even though it looks different!

On 06/04/2016 I, Deputy Daniel Pruitt was dispatched to St. Francis Emergancey Room for a sexual assault complaint.

The child will learn how to group according to more than one feature of the object

On Wednesday, December 16, 2015 at 1955 hours I was dispatched to the Rite Aid for a welfare check. Schuylkill County Communications advised me, it was reported that there was a female leaning against the wall at the Rite Aid shaking and moving back and forth. County advised me the female was wearing a black coat and gray pants.

Humans build and grow off of each other which is one of the main reasons as to why the species has been able to be so dominant. Children, especially, learn based off of watching not only those around them, but those who are successful around them. This concept is explored in Preschool children favor copying a successful individual over an unsuccessful group by Matti Wilks, Emma Collier-Baker and Mark Nielsen. It has been studied multiple times that children will copy the majority over an individual. But, this experiment aimed to test whether or not children would choose to favor the majority over an individual even if the majority failed and the individual succeeded. This experiment is important when looking at the way that children learn and develop. The more that children look and copy the success of others, regardless of if it is a group

Jaylan was in a good mood when the QP met with him for a session.

David is a 5 year old bubba that is attending Kindergarten and loves to learn. He spends most of his time outside socializing with his friends. He and his friends partake in rough play and wrestling. He is okay with repetition and memorization and has his alphabet down while he is subpar at counting. His teacher is pleased with his academics and cognitive development, however she mentioned that he needs to work on sitting still and not being a distraction to those around him by talking excessively. His favorite times during the day revolve around working with his peers at their table and in group projects. During recess, you will rarely see David away from the monkey bars and jungle gym. David loves animals, especially his dog Bingo he spends

Donna, a 32 year old African American female, lives in a rural Texas town of eight thousand. She lives with her husband of ten years, Mark, and their two children. John is eight and in third grade; Crystal is six and in kindergarten. Mark is a schoolteacher at the local high school and the primary provider. Donna quit her job as a teacher three years ago and began giving music lessons part-time at the elementary school so that she would have more time to spend with her children.

This report is based on a “Systematic Observation” (Berk, 2003, p.44). I designed a simple form to record the data based on specimen record and event sampling in which the

For this project, I observed my mother's preschool class and the three children which she baby-sits on weekends. Most of the kids that are in the preschool class were three years old, but there was one five year old. The kids I helped baby-sit were two twin three year old girls, and one five year old.

In the concrete operational stage between the ages of seven and twelve, children become capable of logical thought, they also start to be able to think abstractly. However they are best suited to visible or concrete objects and things they can see (Lee and Gupta). Once the child has reached the formal operations stage from twelve years onwards it becomes more practiced at abstract processing, carrying out problem solving systematically and methodically thus completing the cognitive development process.

Child development is an amazing thing to watch in the way that children interact with one another and how they perceive the world that surrounds. While doing our research of child development we began to observe a group of kids ranging the ages 1 – 12. During these observations we noticed traits such as attachment, comfort, and love. Through the following examples we will proceed to observe development in our environment and explain its relativity to the text
