Review… module 1Basic Principles & Concepts, Brain Development,
and Implications for LearningGROWTH Similarities :Growth is defined as
specific body changes and increases in the
child’s size.
Growth begins from the HEAD, to the
center of the BODY, and outward.
Children DIFFER in growth…taller…
shorter… smaller…
largerA child’s growth is supported by good
NUTRITIAN, adequate SLEEP, & regular
EXERCISE.Children will experience
weeks or months of slightly slower growth followed by GROWTH
SPURTS.
…and it’s all NORMAL!

Development Principles:
#1-Relatively the same for all children, in a typical sequence.#2-Proceeds from general to
specific.#3-It’s continuous; one phase to
the next.#4-Proceeds at different rates.
#5-All areas of development are interrelated.

To summarize: Children follow the same growth and developmental sequence. The rate of a child’s growth and development may progress differently. A child’s readiness for learning and the achievement of developmental
milestones are directly tied to interactions with other people and the child’s surroundings.
It is likely that the child care professional will spend more time with a child than their parents. Knowledge of child development is essential to identify possible delays and/or disabilities. Classroom observations can assist the parents get the early intervention the child may need.

Make a Statement!
Pay close attention!
Each of you must come up with a statement at the end of module 2, that each of the theorists
would say about their own theories. No two statements can be alike!

To Summarize:Maslow, Erikson, Piaget, and Vygotsky:
all have theories about how children learn and grow.Maslow: Hierarchy of five sets of needs must be met for
optimum development.Erikson: Children and adults have to resolve eight conflicts to
grow into a strong social and emotional life.Piaget: Children move through four stages and build on to
maximize their cognitive development.Vygotsky: For cognitive development, children learn through
social and cultural interactions.
