| there are rapid changes in | first year of life |
| gross motor skills | cephalo-caudal, head to toe |
| fine motor skills | proximal-distal, trunk and core then arms then hands then fingers |
| Theoretical Foundations | Cognitive Development- Jean Piaget Psychosocial Development- Erik Erikson Moral Development- Lawrence Kohlberg |
| Cognitive Development - Piaget | Predictable stages of reasoning towards mature, logical thinking Mechanisms of development- adaptation |
| Predictable stages of reasoning towards mature, logical thinking | Biological potential - what they're born with Environmental interaction - how they'll maximize the potential they were born with |
| Mechanisms of development- adaptation | Assimilation Accommodation |
| Piaget Stages- Cognitive Development | 4 stages: sensorimotor, preoperational, concrete operational, formal operational |
| sensorimotor | birth to 2 years (infancy, beginner toddler) |
| preoperational | 2-7 years (early childhood) |
| concrete operational | 7-11 years (middle childhood) |
| formal operational | 11-15 years (later childhood) |
| Psychosocial Development: Erikson | Series of critical stages Core conflict/task - master to progress to next stage Core conflicts recur throughout life |
| Psychosocial Development: Erikson determines if | something has negative or positive impact on life |
| Erikson’s Stages - Psychosocial Development | 5 stages arise during childhood: trust vs mistrust, autonomy vs shame & doubt, initiative vs guilt, industry vs inferiority, identity vs role confusion |
| trust vs mistrust | birth to 1 years- infancy |
| autonomy vs shame & doubt | 1 to 3 years- toddler |
| initiative vs guilt | 3 to 6 years- preschooler |
| Industry vs. Inferiority | 6 to 12years- middle childhood |
| Identity vs. Role confusion | 12 to 18 years- later childhood |
| Moral Development: Kohlberg | Parallels cognitive development Evolves from externally driven rules into individual and abstract - based on are they allowed (good) or not allowed (bad) 3 levels |
| 3 levels of Moral Development: Kohlberg | young child preconventional conventional |
| young child | based on freedom or restrictions |
| Preconventional 3-7 years | Based on reward and punishment |
| Conventional 8-13 years | Based on external ethics |
| Role of Play in Development | Universal language of children Allows children to express feelings and fears Facilitates development Teaches socially acceptable behavior Provides protection from everyday stressors |
| Social Character of Play | Onlooker play Solitary play Parallel play Associative play Cooperative or Team Play |
