Perspectives On The Development Of Young Children

At around 1 year, they may be starting to utter their first words ‘mama’ or ‘dada’. They will learn to put words together by the time they are 2 years of age and they may know up to 200 words. Between 2 and 3 they will start using plurals and negative. Their grammar may not always be correct. They could say ‘I throwed it’ and you could reply with ‘you threw it did you?’ This is a way of correcting what they are saying, without actually telling them that they are wrong and should say it this way.

This paper has presented an argument on how a child’s development is strongly influenced by environmental and cultural influences as well as parenting styles and education. Children begin to learn and experiment with social skills at school, allowing them to learn and understand social skills necessary for later life in life. Children who receive schooling at an early age perform better later in academics. I hope that by teaching in the ways that I described will help me accomplish this. I want my classroom of students to be excited to come to my class everyday to learn something that I hope will impact them for the rest of their lives. I want my classroom to be a very caring environment. I want my students to feel important and smart and to influence them to be the best that they can be. Proverbs 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from

Using this technique we can grow as workers and reflect on our job and role, it is a continuing learning process, within your post, using written reflection this will help us examine our method more intensely and discover why we made a decision and evaluate did it have the best outcome and if not how could a change the method to come up with a better outcome for the young person.

4.1 Analyse the importance of early identification of speech, language and communication delays and disorders and the potential risks of late recognition. It is essential that speech, language and communication delays and disorders are noticed early so the relevant interventions can be used to support the child or young person. Answer the questions below.

The developmental theories can not be more evident than during the out of class assignment at the daycare facility. During this independent assignment, I was able to observe and interact with pre-school children in an environment that is both encouraging and facilitating to a child’s developmental growth. So, just as Piaget in his developmental theory believed that children takes an active role in the learning process, acting much like little scientists as they perform experiments, make observations, and learn about the world; the pre-school teachers allowed them to do just that. Indeed, the teachers at the day care provided room for the child to learn and explore while at the same time adhering to a structure that set boundaries and limitations. Thus, the pre-school children, begrudgingly, learns to follow a meticulous schedule of activities and rest.

| Peer centred relationships now of high importance. Peer acceptance of great importance to self esteem. An interest developing in sexual relationships, experimenting may start to occur. Peer groups begin to separate in those of attraction, mutual interests and more closely bonded friendships made. The youth experiments with social roles and explores options for career choice.

Learning to play and create fun activities for a child is important factor in building their development of their speech, language and communication. Speech and language is not something that is natural to everyone, it needs encouraging, for example if a child is playing with a certain object tell the child what the toy is encourage them to repeat back to you, use role play and join in as this is a good way of encouraging speech and communication skills. Books are brilliant for communication and speech for very young children, you can get books that make sounds or touch and feel books and you can encourage them to tell you what noises are in the book, or what it feels like, therefore encouraging communication. Nursery rhymes are also good for

Late adulthood in Erikson’s life stage theory is the difference between in integrity versus despair. (Ashford & Lecroy, 2013, p. 99) Doris has found her life to be very satisfying. The only thing she wishes could have been changed is the passing of her husband so early. She is content and proud of the way her children have turned out and where her life is currently. We have talked much about how things were as she raised her children and even that of when she was a child. Cappeliez calls this the reminiscence bump, the ability to recall memories from adolescence through young adulthood. (2008, p. 1) She appreciates the life she has been fortunate to have and enjoys sharing the memories she has. I observed the way her face lit up as we talked about her as a child and her children.

The early years, especially the first five years of life, are very significant and most rapid periods for a child’s development and learning. They are important for building the child's brain. Everything a child does be it seeing, touching, tasting, smelling or hearing helps to shape the brain for thinking, feeling, moving and learning. From the In Brief series: The science of Early childhood Development, it is stated that Early experiences affect the quality of the brain architecture by establishing either a sturdy or a fragile foundation for all of the learning, health and behavior that follow.1 This is therefore a time of rapid cognitive, linguistic, social, emotional and motor development.

“Regret: Facing, Feeling and Healing the Heartache of Lost Possibilities” is an article written by Miriam Mason Martineau and published by The Huffington Post. The writer talks about how people reaching midlife start experiencing regret on various aspects of their lives; for a lot of persons, this remorse won’t go away and will keep coming back. It is mentioned how a person should be brave against feelings of regret and try to free themselves from this negative thoughts. The writer also mentions that if we look at our past, we have not always made the right choices, however, we should not feel bad for the choices we’ve made as lessons have been learnt from this so we can take better decisions in our future, a future that can be shaped if we
