Assignment Three – Understand Child and Young Person Development

Physical Development - Refers to learning how to master physical movement.
Fine motor skills -These involve the small muscles of the body used for hand –eye co-ordination, writing and grasping of small objects.
Gross motor skills - These include the large muscles used for sitting, standing, crawling, and walking.
Locomotive skills - These are part of the gross motor skills using the large muscles for walking, running, skipping, hopping and balance.
Intellectual/Cognitive Development - This refers to the child’s brain becoming more able to understand the world around them. It also helps them to remember things and be able to problem solve.
Social and Emotional Development – This is about learning to make friends and to co-operate with others and being able to express your emotions and feelings with others.
