help 303 : recognising that childrens development is holistic

please help with the knoledge question the importance of recognising that childrens development is holistic even though it is divided into differant interconnected areas and how this affects practice k3d212

[SomeoneSpecial]

its just saying why is it important to recognise a child develops in all areas at the same time and how is this knowlage used in the setting.

e.g its important to recognise children are learning and developing holisticly so that we can make sure activities done in the setting are age and stage appropriate for each individual aspect of development. I.E using a babies shape sorter to teach a 5 year old to say the names of shapes would not work as the activitie would be too easy for the childs intellectual ability although it would promote their language.

It effects practice as when planning is done to meet a childs individual needs it is done based on their holistic development and so observations on each aspect of development (physical, social, intellectual, creative, emotional) and on their development as a whole are all concidered before hand. forexample it would be no good planning a large team p.e activity to promote a 2 year olds phyical skills, as they have not got the social skills to play co operativly at this age.

hope this helps

thanks so much this unit so hard may need your help again haha
