Homework: Social-Emotional Milestones & Recommended Activities
Although children develop at different rates, the CDC has published a list of milestones for each of the major domains of development (i.e. Social-emotional, language/communication, cognitive, and physical) that children typically reach by certain ages.
Part I: Research and Analysis
1. Research the major social and emotional milestones for children aged 1-5 years.
2. Identify and write at least two social and emotional milestones for each year
3. Explain how factors that influence these milestones, such as family dynamics, culture, and environment.
Part III: Action Plan Development
1. Select one age group (1-2 years, 2-3 years, etc.) for your action plan.
2. Develop a detailed action plan that outlines strategies and activities to encourage social and emotional development in your selected age group. This plan should consider the role of caregivers, educators, and the environment.
3. Justify your strategies with research findings and psychological theories.
Part III: Reflection: Individual reflection on what you learned from this homework and how it might impact your future work with children.
