Task 2 CYP 3.1 (1.2) Explain the difference between sequence of development and rate of development and why is this difference important. Sequence of development refers to the normal sequence in which children learn different skills, and the rate of development refers to the speed in which a child will develop. However, according to Burnham et al (2010) the difference between the sequence of development and the rate of development is that the sequence refers to the normal or expected sequence in which children learn different skills. The rate of development refers to the speed in which a child will develop. However the sequences are common among most children but the rate in which they develop the skills changes. The sequence and rate …show more content…
It is the same with all the other areas of child development, such as social, intellectual and language some children do not go through the expected sequence of development. However, it is important to observe and note the difference between sequence of development and rate of development, when working with children so that the child’s needs are met. For instance if a child shows delays in any aspect of their growth, taking into account their background, health and environment in which they are growing up, as these factors will affect all areas of development. Tassani et al (2010) states that the difference between sequence of development and rate of development helps identify child’s needs during their stages of their school years. This will help the school to plan and ensure that the child has enough support they require in areas they are struggling with. It is important to be aware of each child’s development as this will give us the knowledge and understanding on how a child is developing so that any concerns or problems are easily spotted , and then investigated and offer the required support. For instance a child with language problems can then be referred to a speech therapist who would then work with the school to implement ways or skills that will help the child. If they
1.1 Explain the sequence & rate of each aspect of development that would normally be expected in children & young people from birth -19 years
The rate of development is the pace at which a child is developing at. It is having a link to the children’s age and a guide for what they may be achieving their task. The pace is differed from each child, through all the areas of development, up to the maturity. The order of development is where the children must first develop one stage at a time to take the next step. It’s still common or perfectly normal for children to develop at all different stage, for e.g. a child at 10 months can talk at the age of 15 months. The sequence is the fact that a child has to talk is like small words, identify them before they can talk etc. one can be achieved before the next but the rate to what the child will does varies between each individual child. It’s
A child’s development can be measured through physical and language milestones, intellectual, emotional and social development.
It is said that the he development of a child consist of the development of physical, motor, cognitive, communication, and social skills. We expect children from birth to age three to be developing in those fields. However, it is understood that each child develops at their own
Children’s do not develop at the same rate as each another .Every child has different rate of
Sequences of development are the order in which children develop; all children follow the same sequence of development but at different rates.
Different researchers have different opinion about how children develop through various stages of development. Some of them are of the opinion that children’s development are continuous and rapid while others are of the opinion that there are different stages of development and that each stage is stable just for a period of time.
Children and young peopleâ€TMs development is considered in sequences as apposed to stages of development which suggest a child of x-age should be able to do x y & z. By thinking of development in sequences suggests that while children follow the same pattern or route of development they do not necessarily develop through these sequences at fixed ages. However, age ranges are used as framework for understanding the pattern of development. It is essential to remember however that children of any age are individuals and therefore will develop at different rates and there are varying factors that can impact the rate of development. In addition, development at each sequence cannot be seen in isolation as once sequence cannot take part without development
Understanding development in this section allowed me to learn the sequence and rate of the development of children and young people from birth to 19 years and how different aspects of development can affect one another. Learning the theories of development and frameworks to support development in current practice was good to see how things work effectively. People who work with children and young people must be able to recognise concerns about development. This is to make sure that the correct actions can be taken. The early recognition of speech, language and communication disorders to children’s holistic development is an important feature of this section. Children and young people go through a number of stages as they progress into adulthood.
According to Moylett and Stewart’s (2012) Development Matters in the Early Years Foundation Stage, the child observed indicated almost every area of learning and development. They successfully met all of the prime areas which are: personal, social and emotional development; physical development and communication and language (Moylett and Stewart, 2012, Neville, 2012 and Foundation Years, 2012, 2015).
Children will develop in different ways and at varying rates, however, most of them will pass through a similar sequence of development as certain steps need to be passed in order for the next step to be achieved.
The rate of development is the time frame that children and young people are given to gain the skills and reach their milestones. An example is that children should be able to walk by the time they reach the age of 2.
both the physical and cognitive development of a child which is expected at that age. However not
The sequence of development can be divided into five aspects. Each sequence has a age bracket but you should always remember that children and young people develop at their own rate,the ages just provide a framework.
At birth, children may seem to be very simple and may not have much in terms of development. However, as they age from day one, they go through various stages that are typically viewed as significant milestones in the development of the children. Through these, it is significant to note that each child develops at their own pace. The various developmental milestones may only serve to give a general idea of the changes that should be expected during the growth of a child. Further, there is a variety in what is considered "typical" in terms of child development (Bredekamp, 1986). Taking a case of a hypothetical child named Alvin, some key milestones in the development of the child particularly from birth
