Prof Ed 1 Prefinal and Final Tasks

Learning Activity 1.
This activity will serve as your reflection about the development of infants and toddlers, children and
adolescence.
Based on Piaget’s sensorimotor stage and the first year of pre operational stage of cognitive
development reflect on how you, as a future nursery teacher of a caregiver can:
1. Enhance infants and toddlers’ cognitive development

2. Impede infants and toddlers’ cognitive development
Note: Discuss your answer in sentence and paragraph form inside the rectangular figure.
Children's cognitive development is improved by exposing them to good music,

literature, discussion, and play. The child must also get enough rest, eat well,
and feel protected and loved. As a future teacher we need to pay a lot of
positive, loving attention is important. Because the pandemic has affected so
many people of all ages, socialization is also quite significant and will most likely
be explored in the future. Isolation is not beneficial for a baby or toddler. They
need to interact with their surroundings.
Learning Activity 2.
A. Here, you may observe in actual within your residential home or home environment or
watch a video in you tube. Write a brief description of your observation on the space
provided below.
My Observation
Baby and Adult Caregiver
The baby's laugh is an innate response that catches the caregiver's attention
and encourages the caregiver's good behavior to continue.
Toddler and Adult Caregiver
While playing and exploring their environment, the toddler and adult caregiver
satisfy the infant's yearning for protection and security. This is why it is vital in
early development programs to select a primary caregiver for infants and
toddlers.
My interpretations in the context of Erikson’s Theory
Erikson believed that personality develops progressively through eight stages of

psychosocial development, beginning with infancy and ending with adulthood.
The person goes through a psychological crisis at each level, which can have a
positive or negative impact on their personality development.

Physical development is one of the many domains of newborn and toddler

development. It is concerned with the growth and development of the organs of
the body, such as the brain, muscles, and senses. Babies, for example, learn about
the world through the development of their physical senses of sight, touch, smell,
sound, and taste. As toddlers' bodies expand, so do the parts of their brains that
govern movement, allowing them to accomplish gross-motor skills such as
running, jumping, throwing, climbing, kicking, and skipping, as well as fine-motor
abilities such as stringing beads, drawing, and cutting with scissors.
