hi there :wave:
this is what i wrote to cover k3d215
hope it helps
children of the same age will not reach all of their development norms at the same time. some children will achieve their development norms earlier than expected, where as others will reach them later. this depends on their abilities and what opportunites are available to them. these can encourage/enhance or hold a child back with all areas of their development.
for example: 1 child aged 3 may have attended nursery and therefore had lots of different experiences , intereacted with lots of children, developed good language and social skills, be indendant and confident.
where as another child of the same age may have been cared for at home by 1 person and therefore may not be as confident, not developed good social skills and emotionally not what to be away from their carer.
it is important that when working with children that you take into account and understand their previous experience and maturate, so that you ae able to support and help them with their development. and ensure not to set unrealistic or unachieveable expectations for their stage f development.
good luck:thumbsup:
