The Child and Adolescent Learners and Learning Principles.: Group 1

The document summarizes prenatal development from conception through the three trimesters of pregnancy. It describes the major developmental milestones that occur each week, including the formation of organs and systems, growth in length and weight, and the development of physical features. The prenatal period is divided into the germinal, embryonic, and fetal periods, with rapid cell division and differentiation occurring throughout.

Physical Development of Pre-natal Period

Physical Development-
The fetal period of prenatal develop marks
more important changes in the brain. This
period of development begins during the
ninth week and lasts until birth. This stage is
marked by amazing change and growth. The
early body systems and structures
established in the embryonic stage continue
to develop.
Cognitive
Development
of Pre-natal
Period Cognitive Development-
The human brain is intricately designed to execute cognitive
functions, such as perception, attention, action, memory and
learning. The complete nervous system is active during
prenatal development and the aim of this review is to present
data on fetal cognitive functions.
Socio-emotional Development

• Socio-emotional development during infancy and early


childhood has been described as “the emerging capacity of
the child to experience, control, and express feelings; form
close and secure interpersonal connections; investigate the
environment and learn, all in the setting of family, society
and cultural anticipations”

splitting into two. Half of which will become us, while the
other half forms the placenta, which brings us food and
oxygen and carries away waste. By week four, we have

The Brain’s Role in Physical Development
of Infant and Toddler

You can easily observe infants making movements with


their bodies and refining their physical skills. Thanks to
advances in research and technology, we can now also see
how the brain changes and grows as young children
develop. At birth, the brain is 25 percent of its adult size and
by age 5, it reaches 90 percent of adult size. Early-life
interactions and experiences of infants and toddlers help
them make sense of the world and form connections
between the different parts of the brain.
10 Factors that Influence
the Growth and
Development of a Child
1. Heredity
Heredity is the transmission of physical characteristics from parents to
children through their genes.

anu kabit ku keni picture? HAHAHA 2. Environment


The environment plays a critical role in the development of children and it
represents the sum total of physical and psychological stimulation the
child receives

3. Sex
The sex of the child is another major factor affecting the physical growth
and development of a child. Boys and girls grow in different ways,
especially nearing puberty
4. Exercise and Health
The word exercise here does not mean physical exercise as a discipline or
children deliberately engaging in physical activities knowing it would help
them grow.

anu kabit ku keni picture? HAHAHA 5. Hormones


Hormones belong to the endocrine system and influence the various
functions of our bodies. They are produced by different glands that are
situated in specific parts of the body to secrete hormones that control
body functions.

6. Nutrition
Nutrition is a critical factor in growth as everything the body needs to
build and repair itself comes from the food we eat
7. Familial Influence
Families have the most profound impact in nurturing a child and
determining the ways in which they develop psychologically and socially

anu kabit ku keni picture? HAHAHA 8. Geographical Influences


Where you live also has a great influence on how your children turn out to
be.

9. Socio-Economic Status
The socio-economic status of a family determines the quality of the opportunity a
child gets
10. Learning and Reinforcement
Learning involves much more than schooling. It is also concerned with
building the child up mentally, intellectually, emotionally, and socially
 so they operate as healthy functional individuals in the society.
