  2. How is a child’s development like a jigsaw puzzle? • Each piece is important to the whole puzzle! • Individually the pieces are difficult to identify but when put together correctly, they form a beautiful, complete picture. • With the development of children, it’s difficult to discuss concepts concerning one of the areas of development without figuring out how it relates to the other areas of their development

  3. PHYSICAL • Having to do with the body & motor skills: • LARGE motor skills develop large muscles • SMALL motor skills develop eye/hand coordination

  4. PHYSICAL CONTINUED… • Focuses on growth such as height & weight • Development of the senses • Physical development depends on opportunities to develop small/large motor skills & to maintain health through proper nutrition, exercise, rest and medical care

  5. INTELLECTUAL Also referred to as Cognitive This area has to do with: the mind & brain learning & problem-solving school concepts creative thinking skills language & literacy moral development

  9. CASE STUDY Four year old Libby woke up from her nap hungry. Her mother had promised that they would make muffins, a favorite snack. So mom read the recipe and helped Libby measure the ingredients and put them in the correct order. Mom even let her stir at appropriate times. She also lined the muffin tin with paper liners and helped pour the batter into them. When the muffins finished baking and came out of the oven, Libby squealed with delight saying “I did it…..I made muffins!” She was so proud of herself. Together, mom and Libby, enjoyed muffins with a cold glass of milk, which Libby poured by herself. After their snack, Libby wrapped up the last muffin for her brother to eat when he came home from school. Identify the physical, intellectual, emotional, social, and moral areas of development taking place in this scenario….

  10. KEY • Physical: small motor skills with stirring & pouring & lining muffin tins • Intellectual: following directions, sequencing, & measuring • Emotional: joy, pride, increased self-esteem • Social: mom & child spending time together • Moral: thinking about others (muffin wrapped for brother)

  12. Areas of Development Sorting Game • Each team will play the game • Check the answers

  13. Prove your Learning! • Option #1: Write a Case Study based on a selected setting. The scenario should incorporate all of the areas of development: physical, intellectual, emotional, moral, and social. It should also include a “key” identifying the areas used. This may be neatly hand-written or typed. You will swap scenarios and identify the areas in the scenario you swapped for. You will get grades for writing one and answering one. Sign Up to be assigned a partner. • Option #2: Create a Developmental Areas Mini-Poster by finding a picture of a child or children in an interactive situation with another person, preferably an adult or older sibling. Glue picture to the center of the poster. In the corners, explain how each area of development is represented in this activity. Posters should be neat, creative and thorough in explanations. • Option #3: Complete the Picture Analysis writing assignment.
