Module 8 Physical Development Activity #4: Self-Reflection

At the end of the semester you will develop a Self-Assessment of what you have learned which will help to determine your grade for ECE 209. In preparation for your Self-Assessment, answer the questions below; you will answer these questions at the end of each module so you have a record of what you have learned over the semester. You can answer the questions here on Open Lab or create a journal on Blackboard (which would be private).

  • What did you learn in the modules for ECE 209-Lecture and Seminar?
    • Information/ knowledge
    • Skills
    • Insights (connections you made or “ah-ha’s” you had about the material)
  • How will the material from these module better prepare you to work with infants?

  1. This week we learned about how babies physically develop, the correct times for them to start doing certain things and what to do if the baby isnt developing properly. This connects to my goals because it helped me learn more techniques on how to help infants from an early age. I now know how to support infants when they start walking as well as knowing how to support their fine motor skills.

  2. This week I learned about how babies development and how sometimes it’s faster for other babies than others. Most of the time they grew up at a fast pace with me in the first year. Where is your babies grow so much and it’s sometimes so fast that you can’t catch up. All right about their motor skills and their fine skills that plays a big part of the development and also what develops the brain.

  3. What did you learn in the modules for ECE 209-Lecture and Seminar?
    In this week I learned about a baby’s physical development. I learned how infants develop their milestones.
    How will the material from this module better prepare you to work with infants?
    The material from this module will help me better prepare to work with infants. When I will work with infants and toddlers, it will help me to learn about how they grow up in the first year and how they develop their fine/motor gross skills.

  4. After seeing the video and reading the articles in this module, I understand how physical development is linked to mental development. I learned more about infants’ physical development, nervous systems, motor development, and milestones, as well as how senses are important for their physical development because babies can interpret and grasp the environment around them thanks to their senses.

  5. And Module 8 I learned about

    The rapid pace in which babies grow in their first year .
    Their sleep schedule and the manner in which it changes as they age.
    The different gross motor and fine motor milestones that a child should have reached by a certain age.
    The skills that I learned are..

    the different activities I can engage children in order to assist them with reaching these milestones within a certain time frame .
    The things I should Monitor within a child to ensure they are developing properly .

    These skills can help me reach my goals because I can use these methods in the classroom to promote the gross and fine motor development of my children . I can closely monitor the children that have reached their set motor skill milestones and those that haven’t .

  6. This weeks module I have learned that children need an area to move freely and how it can be linked to forming brain cells. we as caregiver need to help expand their curious minds to help them develop. they needs different activities to help stimulate them.
