video 2. 3 years old- the children are playing with sensory toys in which involve transferring food coloring from one cup to another. they at one point get up to the tray with the objects back on the shelf. in which they transfer from one hand to the other . they show fine motor skills and gross motor skills.
video 3. 4 years old children are holding pencils /markers in their while they draw / scribble on white paper . the children are showing motor skills because they are using their hands . they are picking small objects , they are also using their fingers.
video 4. 12 months – the baby in the video is crawling on the floor and grabbing toys and he is also placing toys into bucket. The baby is showing gross mother skills because he is using his whole body. he is also showing fine motor skills because he is using his hands . he is reaching and placing them in bucket.
video 5 . under 6 months- the baby is in the bouncy chair she is kicking her feet and playing with the toys that are above the bouncy chair. This baby is showing both gross and motor skills. the reason is because the baby is using her hands to reach for the toys. she is kicking her feet while in the bouncy chair.
Hi Emily
Nice job.
Hi Emily,
You missed the 6th video, that can be found if you copy and paste the link under the last video and up what the directions says!!
my comment for video 3 is did you notice that two of the kids were writing letter, names? this is also a skill that applies to both fine motor skills and milestones, which are important to take note on.
Hi Emily! Good observations but you missed a few for video 3 that really stood out. When Peter was holding onto the eraser with one hand and writing his name with another. That was a great demonstration of his fine motor skills.. I know after a while it could be a little tedious writing the same demonstrations, but don’t lose sight on it. It was a great observation though!!

Hi Keneshia,
You missed the 6th video, that can be found if you copy and paste the link under the last video and up what the directions says!!
I enjoyed reading your response, very respectfully I would have loved to read more details about what you noticed. What in specific stood our in details aside from the big ones we can see right away?
Hi Kenisha,
Great job!I feel like you could have used a little more details for some of them. I also had a hard time finding video #6 i hope you found it !

Video 1 (under 6 months)
In the video we notice the baby developing gross motor skills and gross motor milestones by observing how the baby lifts their head while on laying on its tummy. We also see the baby lifting their chest, putting weight on the arms, lifting shoulders off the floor and moving the head to the right side, while moving legs randomly. We see the reflexive moments when the baby is sucking its fingers and attempting to grasp the book. In the video we also see how the baby’s fine motor skills and the fine motor milestones have developed. We see the baby reaching for the objective, the book, moving arms together and part, letting go of the objective, sliding the objective with one hand. We also see the baby putting her hand, then just a few fingers in her mouth, later the other hand follows with two gingers in the mouth, all while sucking them.
Video 2 ( – 3 years old)
In the vide we see the two 3 years old boys have developed gross motor skills and also demonstrate gross motor milestones. We can see the the items listed above by observing their body movements, how they are able to stand and hold up their bodies, walk, get up from the chair all while keeping their posture, how they don’t need support while standing, walking or sitting, and balancing their entire bodies. When it come to fine motor skills and milestones, we can see through out the observation they boys have both developed grasping objects of different sized and shapes. Carefully pouring liquids from one container to the other all while using both hands to eye coordination. We also notice the skills and milestones they have mastered by observing the boys carefully move the trays from the table to the shelves and vise versa.
Video 3 (- 4 years old)
In Video 3 we see 3 different children at a writing center. From the video we can observe what and how their gross motor skills and milestones have developed at the age of 4. The children at this stage have gained better mobility of their arms, legs, and entire body, which allows them to better coordinate their movements as far as being able to sit up or stand and maintaining/ holding that position. Fine motor skills and milestones in this particular group demonstrates some of the skills by holding the markers in a tripod or what I like to call in my class “ alligator grip”. We see the children hold the markers closer to the tip, can direct the writing tool to where they desire to write or draw. We can also see how the Peter uses his wrist to better assist him when he wants to erase some of his work. The children demonstrate how they can draw and write in different shapes, using techniques. While Peter is not drawing, we can learn from the observation Peter can differentiate lower case and upper case as well as making a round box around his name. Followed by making straight lines starting from the top to the bottom to break up the letters in his name, we can also note he makes a X cross his work. The female students are seen using a tripod grip as well, although the girl to the right of Peter does not have a strong grip on the marker, her grip is loose, but manages to make hill like shapes. The children involved in the writing center demonstrate age appropriate fine motor skills and milestones reached, drawing, writing, holding object, grasping writing utensils, and having an idea as to what they want to write/draw.
Video 4 (12 months)
In video 4 we see the 12 month old baby showing sings of gross motor skills and milestones by the following examples made during the observation. Keeping the head, and chest lifted, crawling, transitioning from crawling to standing. Using both arms to manipulate objects. The baby is also using its core to maintaining the sitting position, as well as crawling to the desired toy. Sammy demonstrates fine motor skills and milestones by reading for object and letting go of objects, using hands in independent order, grabbing objects with whole hand. Sammy also demonstrates pointing with its index finger and using both hands to hold toys but also play with them while using both hans. Sammy is seen showing fine motor skills and milestones by putting toys into its container, and dumping toys out.
Video 5 (under 6 months)
In video 5 we can see the baby demonstrate gross motor skills and milestones by the following.
The baby randomly moving legs and arms, first are clenched then open, reaching for the dangling toy and letting go of it. She also moves her head according to the directions of sounds.
The baby demonstrates fine motor skills and milestones by reading for an object reaching for object within her reach, moving arms together and apart, playing with her hands and rolling them close to her midline.
Video 6 (4 years old)
In Video 6 we can see how Cody demonstrates gross motor skills and milestones by the following.
Cody is able to balance while on the tires, having control of the bigger muscles in his body, while doing this activity and alternating feed and hands. Cody is also seen running with both hands out the side, he is also able to sit on a tricycle and mush with his feet, while alternating feet, he also uses his core and arms to move the steering wheel and his head to look different directions. We also see Cody use his reflexes multiple times while using/ playing with different objects. Cody is also seen galloping and running at the same time, again with arms and hands spread into the air. Cody also reaches across a table to, using his core, legs and arms to assist his body. We can observe Cody’s fine motor skills and milestones during the video baby the way he manipulates different size objects, grasping, uses hand independently, letting go objects, and passing objects from one hand to the other. We can also observe from the video the way Cody uses his hands to obtain the objects he wants, move objects around, although with a loose grip. He puts thins into containers, drops and picks up objects. Cody is a 4 year old who has Down Syndrome and show different milestones for his age group. We can see Cody has his tongue sticking out during the video and wobbles when he runs, walks, and although he does have balance he still puts his arms and hands out while moving around.
Hi Maria very good and thanks for telling me about video six. I will try to upload it.
Hi Maria, I enjoyed reading your observations and how detailed you were. It’s very important to be descriptive because you want to make sure you catch every moment. I also love the term “Alligator grip” especially while working with children to make sure they understand what you are referring too.
Hi Taina, thank you so much! No detail is too small. the kids love the Alligator grip, they think its fun. We also draw little mouse ears and mouth on the tip of the pencil so the kids know their fingers have to hold the ears.
Very good!
Hi Maria,
I love how you put your experiences and phrases that you use at work in your answers.. Really good!
very great answer

Cody then proceeds to lift a lid up from the floor and placing it on the previous plate and using another plate to tilt the food off of it before grabbing it with his hand off the plate
Hi Tiana ,
You did a amazing job with Cody. Really went into great detail
Hey Tiana, I really like how in detail but straight to the point your observations are. Videos 3 & 6 are great observations, you showed that almost everything they did helped develop their motor skills.
Hey Taina,
I like how explained everything was and very good descriptions because everything was answered and I knew the points you were trying to get across.
Hi Tiana,
I liked your detailed observations because permits to gain as much as possible information about the child that helps to gain a better understanding and thus providing an appropriate support.
Video 1
The baby is under the age of six months. He is laying on tommy. I noticed he lift his head up and puts weight on arms in attempt to lift the ground. Also, I see that he turned his head side to side, and he lift his head and shoulders off the floor when laying on tommy. Therefore, and based on this movement we could say that the child has achieved the normal gross skill milestone. Moreover, I noticed that the baby tried to grasp the book toy with her fingers and attempting to grab it toward her body. From this movement we could say that the child has reached his fine milestone.
Video 2
In this video we have two three old children sitting normally in two chair and playing. I noticed the boy sitting in the left side uses his left hand to pour the red water into the right cup that he grasps with his right hand. While the other on who is sitting in the right side grabbing the pink plastic box with his right hand and another object with his left hand. After that he tried to clean the try with his left hand. Thus, having the ability to use and manipulate hands separately which is the sign that the children had reached the normal fine milestone. Additionally, I noticed both children are standing up from the chair and walking easily and grabbing the tries in attempting to range it in the wooden shelf. These movement are the sign of the normal development for the gross motor milestone.
Video 3
The video is to observe children aged four-year-old. Mostly in this video fine milestones are occurred. I noticed the boy Peter wearing red shirt taking the marker with his to fingers and trying to write clear word and names. He draws with his right hand and he erases with his left hand. He scribbles and draw circle on his name and then erases it again. I noticed also the boy attempts to show an advanced fine skill motor by rotating the eraser with his two fingers. All of them uses the right way to grasp the pencil which is grasps it as an adult. The girl next peter wearing bleu shirt draws curved continued line as she is forming a mountain. She was sitting then standing freely and easily from the chair without assistance which a sign of a progressive motor skill milestone. The girl in front of tis girl is drawing openly and clearly words and hearth shape. In genera in this video all those kids show a certain sign of the advanced development of both their gross and fine motor skill milestone.
Video 4
The observation is for 12 month old. The first not I observed in this video is that the infant is crawling and moving into a sitting position without support. It is appeared that he developed a great gross motor process according to his age. As he is crawling, he grasps circle with his finger in his left hand and he lift the red box with his right hand. Therefore, he demonstrated the ability to manipulate his hands and finger against his blocks which is a sign of a progressive fine milestone.
Video 5
As the video begins the baby demonstrate a good gross motor skill progress by moving his leg repeatedly put them together after that he extended them. As well as he tried to put his hand together. In occurring of the fine motor skill improvement, he grasps the purple flower attached to the moving sit and also he gazes eyes for any thing that attract him such as the swinging flower and pink toy on his sit.
Hi Tiana
I apology I did not head that I posted my work in your comment box !!
Hi Tiana,
I liked your detailed observations because permits to gain as much as possible information about the child that helps to gain a better understanding and thus providing an appropriate support.
Hi Tiana,
This was so great! so much detail, after reading your observation I realize how much more information i could have included in my observation. Really great job with all of them !
-Camila
Video #1 (under 6mos)
From the first couple of seconds of the video we already see that the baby has achieved a few gross motor milestones. The baby has lifted her head up when on lying on tummy, I can see she puts weight on arms when on lying on tummy, and she lifts her head and shoulders off the floor when laying on her tummy. She was showing her gross motor skills by repeatedly lifting her head and chest while resting on her arms. We also see she reached a few fine motor milestones for her age as well. She reached for the stuffed animal a few times and had a playbook constantly in her grasp for most of the observation. She was sucking on her fingers and hands for a while also which is a fine motor milestone for children 3 months. For fine motor skills she also used her hands independent of each other. In one instance she was sucking one hand while she reached between her two toys with her other hand.
Video #2 (3 years old)
The two children were playing with water trays and two glasses. They were pouring the water from one glass to another glass and back to the original glass also opening and closing a small box. Each time they poured the water entirely emptying the glass. The gross motor skills they demonstrated a good amount of times were the transitions and walking while carrying the trays. The cups knocked over in the tray but nothing spilled onto the floor. They got up and sat back down a few times even trading water trays while standing. The gross motor milestones they achieved were carrying toys while walking and climbing onto and down furniture without support. When they were getting up from their pushed in seats while holding onto the water trays it was fairly easy for them. The fine motor skills they’ve shown were grasping objects, letting go of objects, pass objects hand to hand, use hands independently of each other. Their hand eye coordination was good when they were pouring the water, none spilling out.
Video #3 (4 years old)
There are three children who are writing on a whiteboard so I know the focus is going to be on their fine motor skills. A fine motor milestone we see being achieved early in the video is imitation. The girl with the turquoise shirt and long hair seems to be looking up at something behind the camera, assuming the teachers board, and copying what is on it. We also see that they are all holding the markers with a mature tripod grasp which is another fine milestone. The boy in the red shirt with a black long sleeve shirt underneath is also reaching a fine motor milestone with writing his name a couple of times. They are also using their hands independent of each other, at one point Peter held the board with one hand while he erased with the other hand. They are all drawing while they are writing, one students draws a recognizable heart. Specific hands are being used consistently for fine motor tasks, Peter is using one hand for writing and the other hand is dedicated to erasing while the girl uses the same hand to write and erase.
Video #4 (12 mos)
As soon as the video starts the baby is crawling across the carpet to get a toy. She reaches for the box then takes the lid off the box, tossing it to the side. With the same hand she lifts the box then sitting down pouring all the blocks out of the box. She drops the toy that was in her other hand and starts tossing the blocks back in the box. From this she achieved a lot of milestones. She was crawling, she sat up without support, dropping and picking up toys, she let go of her toy on purpose, and put blocks into the box (with large openings) and take them out again. She takes a block out of the box again, this time tossing it across the carpet them pointing at it while making a noise. She grabbed the blocks with her whole hand and used her hands independently of each other. In the beginning of the video she had a toy in one hand while she was opening and picking up the box with the other hand.
Video #5 (under 6 mos)
The gross motor milestones we see this baby achieve is her hands clenched in a fist and she randomly moves arms and legs. She starts to reach for the plushies hanging above her. She is also moving her head side to side, grabbing onto objects within her reach, pulling objects toward her body, and holds and shakes toys, swings at dangling toys which are all fine motor milestones reached at her age.
Video #6 (4 years old)
Cody is showing his gross motor skill by running and climbing. Cody then gets on the tricycle and uses his feet to move the bike instead of the pedals. He is stepping at a very fast pace to get the wheels to spin. At this point in the video Cody has shown he’s reached a couple of the gross motor milestones, he climbs well and runs easily. After the bike Cody goes over to a play kitchen and starts to arrange plates and foods on the table. From this we see that Cody is using his fine motor skills, he reaches for and grasps objects, and he uses hands independent of other.
I like how you word it into a nice statement!
I like how you were able to identify the fine and gross motor skills by stating what you observed in the videos.
Video #1 infant under 6 months uses both its Gross motor skills and the gross motor milestones by moving his hands and feet, kicking, and talking by biting their toys. The main motor skills I saw in the video is when the baby was struggling to open the book and more importantly grasping. This video shows me that the baby is developing their little muscles
Gross motor skills are larger movements your baby makes with his arms, legs, feet, or his entire body. So crawling, running, and jumping are gross motor skills. Fine motor skills are smaller actions.
Fine motor skills refer to the coordination between small muscles, like those of the hands and fingers, with the eyes. Fine motor skills involve the small muscles of the body that enable such functions as writing, grasping small objects and fastening clothing
Video #2
The children used their fine motor skills and processes by picking up and trading trays, and pouring water, we can evaluate that they are able to run, climb stairs by themselves under an adult’s supervision. They are able to walk around to play with each other, so I believe they are able to ride bikes and play in the park.
Video #3
I can assess that the children used their fine motor skills and processes because they are able to hold writing instruments to write names and numbers and play with other students. The little girl was drawing and erasing it to draw again. There are about eight to nine children playing with each other. Three of them were on the table drawing pictures and names.
Video #4
The little infant named Samie, crawled and sat by himself to an empty area to play with his shapes. He used gross motor skills to develop his little muscles.
Video#5
I like the video because it teaches us how to be around children when they are babies. The little baby was trying to talk. She also got excited when her mother was trying to talk to her. She used the gross motor milestone skills She is trying to reach out for the toys hanging in her swing.
Hey shayna, I just want to bring to your attention that you missed video #6 there is a link for that video right below video #5
Thank you Kenneth
Video #6
Cody shows gross motor skills and milestones. Cody is a 4 year old who has Down Syndrome, Cody knows how to balance while being on the tires, he is using the gross motor skills . Cody is also seen running with his hands ,he is also able to sit on a tricycle and push with his feet. Cody use his reflexes multiple times while using and playing with different objects. Cody uses his hands to obtain objects he wants, move objects around with a loose grip. I chose this video because Cody remind me of my nephew who was also delayed in talking and walking and etc,
I also have a lot of family that I have down syndrome so I try to work with them you know … I also know how to handle kids With Down syndrome
Watch the videos below. For each video, identify the:
Gross motor skills & processes the child demonstrated and how they demonstrate those skills & processes

He is able to lift himself up from the floor and use his legs to lift himself and jump out of the tire as well, able to use his arms to move the bike in his direction, uses his hands to get the objects he wants to play with, move objects around with a loose grip I see.
Hi Janate, I love how straight to the point your observations are. You focused on the very important details and how they develop the children’s gross and motor skills. An issue for meI always have is figuring out what details aren’t that important so I can leave them out.
Hey Janate,
I like how you responded to the questions and also how organized you were, because you label everything and clearly stated your answer and made sure you answer the question.
Hi Janate

When he rides the bike he doesn’t use the pedals, he uses his legs to push the bike instead. He is also able to pick himself up from the floor.i The gross motor milestones shown are runs easily, jumps onto a step and gallops. In the video he doesn’t attempt to climb, play in the jungle gym. Fine motor skills that are shown are picking up objects and reaching and grasping when he is playing with the kitchen.
Great observation because you are right he does not try and attempt to climb he does play independently most of the time to avoid it and he does not seem to grasp the concept of using his feet to pedal the bike.
-Video #1(Under 6mos): The baby is able to lay on its stomach on its own and slowly lift up its chest holding its head up, move its arms, and kick its legs. The baby can move its wrists and hands and interact with toys in front of the baby, and put its finger in the mouth, and makes noises(grasp), can move its feet. The milestones the baby has achieved are being able to use its large muscles by lay on his stomach, being able to hold its head up using its chest and kicking its leg and move his arms the baby also used its body to move. The baby can also move its wrists, move its hand and fingers he puts it into its mouth and sticks out tongue has its gasps at the toys.
-Video #2(3 yrs old): both boys are using their arms to play and pick the objects they are playing with, they also picked up the trays with the objects in it, they used their legs to walk and are using their entire bodies to sit in their chairs. they both are using their wrists and hands to be able to interact with objects in front of them and also using their fingers to touch the objects, they also both used there feet and toes to walk and one the boys used his feet and put them on the chair and they’re using their mouth to communities with each other and the camera person. The boy’s milestones are they can use their entire body to sit on their own, arms to carry and lift things, and legs to walk. They also can use all their small muscle movements to draw, write their names, clean up after themselves.
-Video #3(4 years old): The children all 3 of them have control and knowledge of the movements of their large muscles they are able to use their torsos and chest and stomach to sit up and sit down they are using their arms to drag and legs to walk. All 3 children also have the knowledge and are using their small muscles. You can see the movements of their wrists, hands, fingers when they are drawing and cleaning up after each other. Also using their feet and toes to stand up. Lastly, they are the mouth, lips, and tongues to talk and express themselves. The children’s gross motor milestones are using able to draw, able to pick up colors and etc., able to stand, and walk. Fine motor skills milestones the children have achieved is using all their small muscle movements to draw, write their names, clean up after themselves.
-Video #4(12 months old): The baby’s gross motor skills are shown because of his movement and knowledge of using his large muscles and using his entire body he crawls and uses his stomach and arms and legs for that and he also picks up the buckets fill with blocks. He also uses his small muscles. The baby’s milestones are he crawls, plays, giggles, sitting up on his own, using both of hands to grab on to the toys and lift,
-Video #5 (Child development Infant/Toddler observation): The baby is kicking and is using his arms to grab the toys hanging he open and closes up his hands as well. He also seems very aware he looks uplifting to his head a bit he also moves its head according to the sounds the baby hears and also the baby seems like he trying to speak by making little baby noises.
-Video #6(4 years old): The boy seems very active he knows how to hold his balance especially while on the tires, he knows how to use his legs and run, he plays with many different objects. He’s aware of his surroundings and how to use the objects around him.
For video 6, it was most important to observe that Cody does not navigate the tricycle properly for his age he should be able to use the pedals properly like his fellow peers.
Video 1)Gross motor skills & processes the child demonstrated and how they demonstrate those skills & processes
The gross motor skill that is being developed in crawling by enhancing movement in the arms, legs, core, and lifting of the head through a reach and grab activity. By placing objects in front of the baby it signals the baby to push forward using the body and focus on the objects at use in this activity. Throughout the process, the baby is also constantly kicking to help force some movement and lifting using their arms to push up.
Video 2) Fine motor skills & processes the child demonstrated and how they demonstrated those skills & processes
These children are conducting a fill and dump activity using water,cups, and sponges. This activity helps to enhance fine motor skills in the childs hands as they are grasping, using their hand-eye coordination to make sure they don’t spill any water.
Video 3) Gross motor milestones the child has achieved for their age
Children in the classroom have developed their gross motor skills for their age. Some of the students are standing, running in the classroom, have the capability to balance on a beam with both feet, are using their arms in different ways such as erasing their boards or raising their arm to fix their articles of clothing giving the impression of self-awareness.
Video 4) Fine motor milestones the child has achieved for their age
The baby’s fine motor skills that she has achieved is the ability to grasp an object using her hands. The baby fills and dumps the shapes from the shape sorter and places them back inside the bucket.
Video 5) The baby uses the bouncer and as using their gross motor ability to kick their legs the baby was using its fine motor skills by reaching and grasping the toys on the bar. The baby was cooing and communicating through play and using their hand-eye coordination to stay focused on the objects present on the bar. The baby also has the ability to open and close their hands into a fist presenting strengths in their hand muscles.
Video 6) Cody is doing physical activities outside in the playground. He balances on tires as he bends completely down in front of him able to touch the ground with his fingertips. He almost falls but as a reflex uses his hands to get himself back up. He was able to run while also moving his arms in the process. He then proceeds to get on a tricycle he uses the strength in his leg muscles to move the bike and his arms to control the movements, but he does not have the capability to use the pedals on the bike.
Hey Arelis Marie Elias
This is Luis Martinez I agree with you that video number 6 Cody on the playground , I recently went back to the video and I noticed that Cody does not navigate the tricycle properly for his age, he should be able to use the pedals properly like his fellow peers.I did not pay closely attention instead I confused Cody for another boy who was near him with a tricycle too.
Arelis, I am in agreement with you in video 6 that he cannot pedal and I am thinking that he needs to develop more balance in his body and I am also wondering if the gross skills in his feet needs more developing.
Video 1
The baby showed gross motor skills when she lifts her up especially in her movements milestone. She also places her hand on her mouth, Following with motor behavior when she laid her eyes on the bright object and let her eyes follow.

1.In Video 1, the baby demonstrated his gross motor skills and processes. He did so many Reflexive movements. He did so many times lift his head, chest, arms, legs and torso. He sucked his finger or his toy and he tried so many times to turn & roll over. However, he crawled through the whole video. He tried so many times to move with crawls and it balanced his body.
Video 2 ( – 3 years old)
2.In Video2, there are under 3 years old two babies who have demonstrated their fine motor skills & processes. They reach and grasp such as cups, containers, chairs and tables. Their fine motor skills and processes are very developing. Their hands, wrists, fingers, feet, toes, lips and tongue were very processing. Their movement, doing jobs and speaking were developing. They can systematically reach, grasp and let go of objects. They can take care of their cup and containers and they are independent in this video. They can pick up small objects with their hand and finger. We can see their finger movement and they use their fingers independently to do their work. The two babies did liquids for their toy and they turned on the other side of the table systemically and they returned their table. And then, they used to start their jobs again.
3.In Video 3 is demonstrated in the under 4 years old classroom. The main characters were Peter and his two classmates who were sitting together at a table. . There were more than 6 students in this classroom. We can see their achievements at their age. Their fine motor skills & processes such as hands, wrists, fingers, feet, toes, lips and tongue were very developed. They had written and drew on the white board. Especially Peter who was an asian male student in this classroom. He demonstrated fine motor skills by writing his name and his brother’s name “Minh”. The children had successfully used the eraser and their speaking had started developing.
4. In Video 4, the 12 months old baby girl Summy was demonstrated her gross motor skill and processes. We can see Summy was crawling from side to side. She can sit without support and she makes sitting position without support movements with hold toys onto nearby furniture. She rolls, distributes and picks up her toys. She knows her name is Summy.
5.In Video 5, the 6 months old baby was demonstrated gross motor skills and processes. The baby was shaping his body, leg, and hand. His basket was hung on toys. He tried to left and right hand and pulled the toys. And he put his finger into his mouth.
6. In Video 6, under 4 years old child Cody demonstrated his gross motor skills and milestone. He was climbing well on tricycle and stairs. He runs easy in the baby garden. He pedals on tricycle. He ran around the obstacle with this tricycle. But, the tricycle direction was wrong two times. But he turned to move in the right direction.We can see he used his legs to drive his tricycle. He walks up and down stairs with one foot on each step. And then, he demonstrated his fine motor skills and milestones. First, he looked for plates for his friends. And then, he put the fake food on the pink plates and hosted his friends on the tables.
yan, I agree with your report for number 4 because I think that baby is on track in development because she is very observant, knows her name, sits without help and she picks up her toys with confidence in her hands.
Video #1
In this video a baby under 6 months old who can be seen using gross motor skills by lifting head and chest and kicking legs. Some fine motor skills that can be observed are the baby reaching for the book and grasping it. A couple gross motor milestones I can observe are lifting head and shoulders while on tummy, putting weight on arms and turning head side to side. A fine motor milestone is sucking on mouth and fingers.
Video #2
In this video we see two boys about the age of three, we see the development of gross motor skills and milestones because they are sitting up straight, then one boy walks independently while carrying something without any support and bends his whole body to put the object away. We see lots of fine motor skills in this video by the boys grasping objects of different sizes, using one hand more often than the other for activities using hand eye coordination, and closing the box with his hands.
Video #3
In this video we see multiple children all around the age of 4 some fine motor skills and milestones I notice are children writing their names, holding marker, drawing lines and drawing identifiable shapes such as hearts and circles. Some gross motor skills and milestones I see are children sitting on chair, and children running, jumping in the background, as well as children walking away with out support
Video #4
In this video I see a 12-month-old girl. I observe some gross motor skills and milestones. She’s crawling while holding a toy, picking things up individually and putting them where she wants which shows great eye-coordination. She’s also throwing things and sitting up without support. Some fine gross motor skills and milestones I see are grabbing small objects with one hand using fingers independently and letting go of objects.
Video #5
In this video I see a baby under the age of 6 months. She is demonstrating some gross motor skills by randomly moving legs, and having her fist clenched. Some fine motor skills and milestones I see are reaching for an object playing with her hands and moving arms together and apart.
Video #6
In this video we see a boy who is around the age of 4. He demonstrates gross motor skills and milestones when he is seen running and is able to stop suddenly, he also uses balance to ride the bicycle, walking, and running. Some fine motor skills and milestones he shows are grabbing things, moving things and placing things. We also see this when he walks to the kitchen and begins arranging the food and plates.
Video 1
The baby is under the age of six months. He is laying on tommy. I noticed he lift his head up and puts weight on arms in attempt to lift the ground. Also, I see that he turned his head side to side, and he lift his head and shoulders off the floor when laying on tommy. Therefore, and based on this movement we could say that the child has achieved the normal gross skill milestone. Moreover, I noticed that the baby tried to grasp the book toy with her fingers and attempting to grab it toward her body. From this movement we could say that the child has reached his fine milestone.
Video 2
In this video we have two three old children sitting normally in two chair and playing. I noticed the boy sitting in the left side uses his left hand to pour the red water into the right cup that he grasps with his right hand. While the other on who is sitting in the right side grabbing the pink plastic box with his right hand and another object with his left hand. After that he tried to clean the try with his left hand. Thus, having the ability to use and manipulate hands separately which is the sign that the children had reached the normal fine milestone. Additionally, I noticed both children are standing up from the chair and walking easily and grabbing the tries in attempting to range it in the wooden shelf. These movement are the sign of the normal development for the gross motor milestone.
Video 3
The video is to observe children aged four-year-old. Mostly in this video fine milestones are occurred. I noticed the boy Peter wearing red shirt taking the marker with his to fingers and trying to write clear word and names. He draws with his right hand and he erases with his left hand. He scribbles and draw circle on his name and then erases it again. I noticed also the boy attempts to show an advanced fine skill motor by rotating the eraser with his two fingers. All of them uses the right way to grasp the pencil which is grasps it as an adult. The girl next peter wearing bleu shirt draws curved continued line as she is forming a mountain. She was sitting then standing freely and easily from the chair without assistance which a sign of a progressive motor skill milestone. The girl in front of tis girl is drawing openly and clearly words and hearth shape. In genera in this video all those kids show a certain sign of the advanced development of both their gross and fine motor skill milestone.
Video 4
The observation is for 12 month old. The first not I observed in this video is that the infant is crawling and moving into a sitting position without support. It is appeared that he developed a great gross motor process according to his age. As he is crawling, he grasps circle with his finger in his left hand and he lift the red box with his right hand. Therefore, he demonstrated the ability to manipulate his hands and finger against his blocks which is a sign of a progressive fine milestone.
Video 5
As the video begins the baby demonstrate a good gross motor skill progress by moving his leg repeatedly put them together after that he extended them. As well as he tried to put his hand together. In occurring of the fine motor skill improvement, he grasps the purple flower attached to the moving sit and also he gazes eyes for any thing that attract him such as the swinging flower and pink toy on his sit.

Hey Denise Newland Stewart
This is Luis Martinez great observation, you mentioned every specific detail regarding with Cody demonstrating a varity of gross motor skills,Overall you observation was very detailed.
Video 1 Child development Infant/ toddler observation
During the observation I saw various indications that correlated with fined/motor skills that were performed by the infant. I noticed the infant toddler placed both of his/her hands clenched together in a fist, directly towards the mouth. The child was placed on a big colorful mat with designs on it, on one side next to her there was a soft book and a stuff animal , while on the other side towards her legs was a big curvy arc with toys on it. As the infant toddler chew on her/his fingers, her/his drool fell constantly. Fallowed by the infant putting an effort to lift his/her head up as she/he was lying on her/his tummy. The child repeatedly kept placing his head and chin on a soft book, for up to 3 to 5 seconds. The toddler randomly moved her arms and legs as she/he was lying on his/her tummy on the mat. The infant toddler giggle for a few seconds as he/she stretch her/his hands and legs. Overall, the child, mostly performed a combination of fine and gross motor skills, which involved the used large muscles and small muscles.
Video 2 Observation water trays
Both children fall between the ages of 4 and 5, based on the observations, I notice there was calm/relaxing music being played on the background, based under the descriptions regarding with what these young children can now performed or do that are based from the fine motor skills and processes and the gross motor skills and processes. The left child sited across the table shows that he can now pass objects hand to hand and as well uses hands independent of each other , for instance the child grabs a cup of water to pour a few drops of orange water into the bigger glass cup, basically the child used both of his hands to handle two objects at the same time . Another example that demonstrates this action is the child handling a blue wide large tray with both of his hands, the child carefully grabs both handles of the tray with his fingers closed, the child passes the blue wide large tray to his fellow classmate. The same action occurs(pass objects hand to hand and grabs small/large objects with whole hand) with the second child that is sited at the right corner of the table, as he pulls the table to stand up and then walks a few steps in order to place the large wide blue tray in one of cabinets of the furniture. The child then grabs the large wide blue tray with his whole hands from his fellow classmate, then places the tray on the table, even though he was about to fall he holds on the objects securely.
Video 3 Observations chapter 4
The three children fall between the ages 3 and 4, so they are most likely to be in pre-school (Pre-K). Based on the indications from fine and including gross motor skills and processes. During the observation I notice the three children demonstrated that they could now draw straight lines and circles, they were able to hold color markers, white board eraser, and baby wipes using their thumb and fingers, as well they were used one hand more often than the other for most activities. Whereas for gross motor skills and processes the three children constantly used their reflexive movements to performed different actions during the lesson. For instance, Peter was standing up for most of the time of the activity, as he was printing his name on the whiteboard. His writing and drawing skills demonstrated that he was able to perfectly print his name with some capital letters, during the activity as he repeatedly printed and erased his name, he integrated squiggly, curvy, and diagonal lines into his name his named suing . Moving on the girl across next to Peter, the girl used various of her motor skills, for example, she let go some of the objects that she was provided with in order for her to continue adding details to her drawing, and used hands independent of each other and used both hands to swap objects. The girl used her half of her arm instead of the whiteboard eraser to erase the picture that she was drawing. I noticed that as she was erasing, her drawing she used the palm of her hand and the long sleeve of the shirt.
Video 4: 12 month old playing with shape sorter
During the observation, the 12-month-old infant used various of her/his gross and fine motor skills and processes as she was playing with the shape sorter. I noticed the infant was able to reach, grab, and put objects into a play box, as well able to drop and pick up toys, she as well rolled over to the sides to explore and get to the objects that were placed next to her, and using her hands to hold onto objects in order to use them for specific purposes within her reach. As the toddler moved her arms together and then apart repeatedly, she constantly bang the play tools together. It is widely known that young babies have a reflexive grasp meaning their hands automatically close tightly when pressure or stimulation is applied in their palms, in this case the toddler is learning how to hold the objects tightly, her hands clenched in a fist. She bended over while she was still sitting down a bit to the right side, for her to grasp small objects with her thumb and her index finger to pick-up the blocks.
Video 5: Infant/toddler observation report video
The infant toddler is between 3 to 6 months old, the 3-6-month-old infant used various of her/his gross and fine motor skills and processes as she was in her basket crib. Throughout the duration of the observation she randomly opened and closed her hands (fingers)as well she moved her hands and legs freely while she was attempting to grab the dangling toys that hanged on the curvy top of the basket crib. For a few seconds while the infant was in motion, she attempted to lift her head by stretching and spreading her legs apart while she was lying on her back. I also noticed the crib basket provided comfort support to the infant’s back, so that the infant toddler can lean over a bit. Last but not least, the infant toddler moved her head from side to side while she was lying on her back.
Video 6 Cody on the playground
Cody is between is 4 to 5 years old, In this observation Cody demonstrates a variety of gross motor skills. Throughout the observation Cody went through different playing stations. Based on the expectations/abilities that a 4 o 5 year is supposed to do/act. Cody was able to lean over completely on his back, while was he rolled over a big black tire. Then he jumped on one foot for 5 seconds from the big black tire, followed by Cody running towards the tricycle area. Cody was able to independently get on/off the tricycle and he was able to perfectly pedal 20 feet away from the starting area, he carefully placed both of his hands on the handles of the bicycle, in order for him to turn over his bicycle towards the left. As he was running, he placed his hands apart as if he was flying. Last but not least, Cody went to the last play station, he used both of his hands to grab and swap at the same time the cooking toys from the kitchen, he then stretches both of his arms over the table handling cooking, he hands the cooking toys to his fellow classmate.
Love how detailed you are in your observations!
