Study Notes
Child Development: Unit 1, Lesson 1
-
Physical Development: Focuses on biological systems of the body and brain, including anything related to movement and how we perceive our physical surroundings.
-
Musculoskeletal System: Composed of bones, muscles, ligaments, tendons, and joints. It allows for movement. Developing gross motor skills involves practicing large muscle movements, while fine motor skills involve smaller movements.
-
Nervous System: Central to understanding senses, especially those related to body movement, which are primary senses.
Primary Senses
-
Vestibular System: The first category of primary senses, relating to balance, coordination, eye movements, and gravity.
-
Proprioception: Understanding body position including 'over', 'under', 'forward', 'backward', etc.
- Involves using information from muscles and joints to understand and alter posture.
- Important for math concepts related to size and weight.
Child Domains
- Physical: Refers to the child's body.
- Intellectual: Covers the child's thinking and learning.
- Social-Emotional: Involves social skills and emotional development.
- Moral: Focuses on moral reasoning and judgments.
