develop physically, for example gross or fine motor skills? My partner and I are very involved parents and like to interact with Cain as much as possible and we also plan little educational family trip like going to the museum, library, taking a walk out in nature to keep him curious. Cain likes to freely do things that is in his interest and…
Introduction I performed my observation on a 3-year, 4-month old girl, P.H., from rural Oklahoma. She is the middle child of three children. Her parents, siblings, and P.H. do/have not received any special-needs services. I was able to observe several aspects of communication, motor, social, sensory, and literacy development. Communication P.H. is displaying the full range of Dore’s conversational acts. However, only a few she demonstrated will be explained next. She is very curious and is…
study this one was going to be the easiest. I knew who I could observe and it fit my time frame of a busy college student. What interest me about this assignment was how thoroughly detailed it is, there’s a lot of information I had to gather to make the over all message and meaning clear. You don’t hear about the motor development in children anymore, it’s all about intelligence now. What level does he or she read; does he or she know the alphabet? So I wanted to take the advantage to see the…
Introduction For this assignment, I have selected the skill of a basketball lay-up. I perform an task analysis of the skill along with highlight key topics such as motivation, practice format, and identifying errors. To successfully perform a lay-up, one must build up force by using their arms, hips, knees, ankles and applying the appropriate amount of that force in the direction of the hoop at the correct angle resulting in the ball going through the basket. The learner for this skill will be…
Toddlers continue to surprise parents as they grow older. Once you settle into a pattern and think that you can predict your child’s behavior, she will do something totally unexpected. Your loving, affectionate baby may suddenly turn wholly against any form of hugs and kisses from you. It is just one of the many phases of growing up and there is nothing to be alarmed about. Let her go about her day, she will turn to you when she needs to be comforted. Developmental milestones of your…
him and started cry, but then when she came back, he stop cry. After complete the observation on Michael’s developmental milestones while he was engage on playing activities allows me better understanding of human developing through the life span. I could see how the environment, as well as biological, physical, psychosocial and cognitive functions can affects person development in positive or negative way. This observation also provides me, as a future occupational therapy practitioner, with…
others their age. The chalkboard that acts as a third wall to the playhouse under the playground is also accessible to children with disabilities. The chalkboard engages children’s creative minds in artistic expression or linguistic practice. Children’s fine motor development grows by writing and drawing. They can enhance their cognitive development by writing letters or spelling our words. Children who draw together practice the sharing of space and an overall socio-emotional awareness of…
between that time span. While observing the toddlers in lab one, ages zero years to two years old, I witnessed multiple kinds of developmental changes. These children also encountered many people. In the lab, I seen multiple toddlers showing different signs of social development. Some of the toddlers were talking the whole time I was there and some of the toddlers didn’t speak not one word while I was observing. The job of interacting with the toddlers was not a hard job for the teachers because…
other children, with role games and make-believe scenarios popular because of their active imaginations. By this stage, on my observation they should have grown out of any ‘terrible twos’ behaviour, but they will have a heightened sense of what they feel is fair and unfair and may still have the odd tantrum if they perceive an injustice, such as an unequal allocation of toys or sharing of sweets. Although they can appear confident…
understanding gradually changes from the interaction with the environment. During this interaction, the child will be able to accommodate and learn (Broderick & Blewitt, 2015, p. 79). Additionally, at the age of four children are developing gross and fine motor skills. These developing skills will have focus during the…
