Physical activity encourages children and young people to develop all their physical skills and to practice the skills that they already have. Your role in supporting a child’s physical development will be to ensure that the child has a wide variety of experiences of being in a safe environment. Any setting should offer a wide range of equipment that can be used both indoors and out. It is considered important that children are given opportunities to develop their gross motor skills indoors as well as outdoors. Such opportunities may be provided by designated areas such as soft play area or by activities such as drama.

Physical: To promote physical development, children will have many opportunities to engage in activities that will strengthen fine motor, gross motor and sensory skills. They will participate in art and craft activities that will allow them to refine the use of their hands and fingers for more precise movements and further develop their hand eye coordination. The children will have the opportunity to participate in several outdoor, large group gross motor activities. These activities are designed to improve coordination (when moving or standing still), balance, and spatial awareness during movement. There are also activities that will engage the children in tasting and touching to help further develop their sensory skills.

Have you ever watched football? Well then you know who Carson Wentz is. He is the quarter back for the Philadelphia Eagles and if you ever watched football then you who he is. Today, I’m going to be speaking about who Carson Wentz is, how he became a football player, and how did his interest in football start.

In early learning environments, children acquire knowledge and develop cognitive, social and emotional, physical and language acquisition skills in the content areas such as language arts, math, science, and social studies in a variety of ways. It is up to the teachers to plan and implement in-depth studies of themes and topics that are meaningful and relevant to the children, being sure to address the development of the whole child while integrating all of the content areas. In the physical classroom the environment should provide students with hands-on opportunities to grow and develop skills, gain knowledge, and have fun as they explore carefully designed learning centers. They should be provided with materials that are related to

Evaluating the Center For Young Children Day care (CFYC) in UMD, I have to say I am happy that there are a lot of programs to help kids grow up to be healthy. This is the time where children need to explore and and mae discovery in their little adventure.Though the synaptogenesis of the brain have diminished, the production of the Prefrontal cortex is still being developed (L. Levine, J. Munsch Children's Development from infancy to Adolescence, page 261). There are unique activities that help each child develop skill. The CFYC has a card game where they gather children together and do what the card says. One of these card is an “exercise card” in which the adult and children do that exercise. It can consist of squats or jumping jacks. It is

The participants at CentraCare were more than willing to learn and focused on what we had to present.The teaching strategies we incorporated were lectures and discussions because we wanted the participants to understand and participate in our presentation. The developmental stage of the participants were elderly white males and females. Most of the participants were white females and then their were two white males. The cultural influences of participants weighed on them a little because they did not know if they could do the exercises due to their age. We assured them as a team to do what you can and age has nothing to do with a little exercise. The socioeconomic status did not have any influence on our presentation because our presentation

In class we were shown a recording of the speech, “A call to men”. The first thing I noticed was the title, which made me immediately assume it was going to be a female speaker that was going to speak about feminism; or something along those lines. To see a man giving the speech grabbed my attention instantly. The man giving the speech was Tony Porter, and his audience was mostly women, who made me think, “Is this guy going to be giving a speech about feminism?” While listening to his speech I felt guilty for being quick to judge, because his speech was actually about growing up as a male, and being masculine is today’s society. While Tony Porter was giving his speech, he brought up stories that without a doubt every guy in our class could relate to that left many of us saying, “Wow”.

Understanding that PLAY is a spirit and can be implemented in small, simple ways such as dress down days or charity fund

On Thursday November 19, 2015, former Democratic member of the House of Representatives, George Miller spoke in the Student Union theater. George Miller was born in Richmond, California in 1945. He graduated from Diablo Valley Community College and then attended San Francisco State University to obtain his 4 year degree. He also attended the UC Davis School of Law, where he received his Juris Doctor to become a lawyer. He served as a United States Representative from California from 1975 to 2015. Miller served as chairman of the Education and Labor Committee from 2007 to 2011. In 2014, Miller announced that he would retire from Congress, he is no longer an active politician.

So many children this day in age, are sat in front of a television or a tablet and expected to keep quiet. Children are built to explore, move, and learn from their experiences, and this cannot happen when a child is inside, being distracted by technology. No matter how busy parents are, they should find at least thirty minutes a day to go outside and play with their children. If the weather does not permit outside play, then playing games inside is always a great alternative. Parents should be encouraging their children to develop the motor skills that they are going to need in order to succeed in school and later in life. Many parents encourage the development of their children’s gross motor skills by involving them in sports, dance, or gymnastics. These programs are great for not only teaching children how to be good at something they love, but they also encourage children to develop their motor skills. If parents find that they cannot afford programs such as these, they can focus on providing multiple opportunities for play. For example, one day they could go to the park or they could go over the neighbor’s house to play. Ultimately, the best thing that parents can do to encourage the development of their children’s motor skills is to allow them to play as much as possible and to allow them to try new activities, even if they are

We are a most fortunate society to live in a time when we have so many opportunities to make life better. Technology, for one, pops into my mind; however, technology can be both a help and a hindrance. I am often surprised to discover how tiny children are living such sedentary lifestyles: televisions, iPads, iPods, computers, and cell phones. All too often, physical activity and social interaction account for an insignificant amount of time of many children’s days. Add in a poor diet with a heavy dose of sugar, and we have a recipe for disaster. It is my goal to learn how to encourage my students become active learners in every sense of the word. My goal is to provide the best physically active opportunities for my students to learn—without going overboard and banning all forms of technology. I want to get my students moving in order to help them learn more effectively, so they can reach their full potential!

Nowadays, more and more children have obesity compare to the children in thirty years ago. The research showed that children who have obesity in their early age may cause either short-term or long-term consequence. The short-term consequence for the obesity children include low self-esteem and the long-term consequence includes asthma and heart disease. (CDC) The best way to prevent these is to encourage children do at least one hour physical exercise a day within the trained instructor guided. ( Epstein 2014) My paper is mainly focused on how my curriculum promote physical development in a child care center.

The controversial topic in the realm of physical education is if physical education should remain in schools. Higher up’s are complaining about test scores and suggesting that cutting physical education programs would lead to better test scores. Technically, this would lead to more time spent sitting in a desk and listening to lectures in class, which is supposed to improve test scores. So, the solution to increase test scores is to take the small chance of physical activity that children receive during the school day and keep them almost completely sedentary for six-plus hours. When physical activity is restricted during school hours, children do not regain the lost physical activity after school, resulting in children who remain

In the modern schools, too many elementary schools are so centered academics and don’t focus on the well-being of the students. The school systems also don’t realize that physical activity can help students perform better in the classrooms. In the recent years, there has been a worldwide tendency to reduce school-based physical education in favor of academic subjects. Given the beneficial effects of exercise and the disadvantages of a sedentary lifestyle, cutbacks in physical education lessons are not near as productive as people think. Systematic reviews provide clear
