Developmentally appropriate activities are going to be ideal if not vital when it comes to all educators creating their lesson plans for any age. Early childhood educators have the unique responsibility of meeting their students’ developmental needs through enriching activities that will encourage growth in all domains. Considering all domains when planning will ensure a well-balanced program for students to succeed. Creating plans and goals in some domains and not in others would be a disservice to the student. The role of the early childhood educator has a significant impact on a child’s overall development in all domains. As an early childhood educator, myself, I plan weekly activities and goals in all domains. One of the best parts of my day is to watch a student glow when they accomplish a goal within a particular domain that they might have grappled with or avoided. Comment as you see fit. Min 40 words or more

For example, a student who functions on a grade 1 level at the age of 15?

A social environment can have a big impact on a little brain, depends on the environment itself is it safe? Is there abuse?

Even when you smoke around children you know this can cause lifelong conditions, staying up all night with your child can cause sleep deprivation and even jet lag, children should be getting around 8 hours of sleep or even a little bit more just because of their age because we never want to alter their mood, we want them to stay happy growing into their own skills on knowledge. When women are pregnant with a child whatever emotion they may feel the baby will feel also we have to understand that being dysfunctional towards that child can hurt them and this can defeat the brain in development.
