Cyp 3.1 Explain The Rate Of Development

A child develops through its whole life. They can develop; physically, linguistically, intellectually, socially and behaviourally. “Physical development is the way in which the body increases in skill and becomes more complex in its performance” [Meggitt, 2000, Page 2]. Twenty five days after conception; the body of the chid has developed immensely from the small fertilised egg. Up to birth the foetus mainly develops physically however once the child is born the child then begins the long process of development. Not only do the gross motor skills and the fine motor skills develop on the baby, but the sensory development also widens on the child.

All children and young people develop at different rates, but the order which they advance in differs very little. Children’s development tends to progress from head to toe, inner to outer, from simple to complex and from general to specific.

The aspects of development are defined as Physical, Social & Emotional, Language and Intellectual. There are different stages of development for each category, 0-3 years, 3-7 years, 7-12 years and 12-19 years.

The sequence of childrenâ€TMs development for each age from birth to 19 is divided into five aspects which are physical, language, social and emotional, and intellect. Childrenâ€TMs development is continuous and different ways, the sequence in which they develop will about the same as they

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

A child’s development can be measured through social, emotional, intellectual, physical and language developmental milestones. This is the Holistic Process when dealing with every aspect of the child and their environment.

Physical Development: Baby can do small movements such as turn their head. They sleep most of the time and this is why they are going to grow fast.

Most children around the ages of four and five years of age, begin to develop greater independence of self-control, and creativity. They begin to play with their toys for a long period of time. They are eager to try new things, and when they get frustrated, they are able to show their emotions quickly. Although children grow and develop at their own pace, they will more than likely achieve the following developmental milestones before he or she turns 6 years old.

Every child grows and develops at his/her own pace. Every child still learns the same thing no matter how long it takes them to learn it. No matter the process it’s a pretty predictable path every child takes. From the ages 2-5 children will develop language skills, social skills, cognitive skills, and physical skills. At age two children will speak about 50 words, start to show independence, have a wild imagination and begin to run and a kick a ball. At age three they should be able to speak about 250-500 words, they should start to share with others, look at books and imagine what the book might say, be able to walk up and down stairs. By age four they ask questions, get along better with others, start to think about writing or can write,

The cognitive development is where the child figures out how everything is organized. The children are learning how to learn and involves activities that include thought process, problem solving, decision making, and memory. When the child is about two and four months old they should begin to follow things with their eyes, pay attention to face expression, respond to affection, recognize familiar people from a distance, reach for things and let the parent or care giver if they are happy, sad, by crying or showing fuzziness. As a parent it is important to pay attention to the way the baby cries. This way the parent can figure out what the baby needs or what they like or dislike. Playing peek a boo is also a fun way to teach the baby that something still

The sequence and rate of each aspect of development from birth to 19 years can be

Development is often referred to on a timeline and is broken down in ages. As development is more rapid in early years the milestones start by being quite close together before becoming further apart as baby becomes a child and then a young adult.

The rate of development is the speed in which things take place. The rate of development from birth is rapid due to the brain development, it slows down and then increases again with further changes taking place in the brain when they hit the teenage years. The rate of development can vary in each ie: some children may start walking at the age of 10 months and others 13 months.

From birth, a child starts to develop physically and is a process that continues into late adolescent. Physical development involves the development of your muscles, control over the body and physical coordination. When looking at a child’s development we focus firstly on gross and fine motor skills. Fine motor skills are the coordination of small muscle movements such as hands, fingers, eyes and mouth. For example, grabbing, pinching, blinking and speaking are all contolled by your fine motor skills. Then we have the gross motor skills, they are the movement of the larger muscles and enable your body to walk, stand, jump run and balance.

In class we discussed many factors in how young children develop and learn. One of the topics we discussed was physical development
