Child Development
Collection of work
Aim
The aim of this project is to observe a group of children from different ages for a specific period of time to see if their developments are meeting their requirements with a few months leeway as every child does not develop the same and at the required age.
Objective
My objective for this project is to discuss my project with my supervisor and the children’s parents that are going to be involved with my developmental observations. My list of development observations are going to be, Physical development, intellectual development, language development, emotional development and social development. I will also include an evaluation revolving these observations.
Rational
Child observations can help with a child’s overall development. Observations can be carried out for the entire year and then presented to the parents at the end of the year. These observations can help the child care worker and parents to identify each child’s strengths and weaknesses. The records can help show how each child learns.
