Assessment of the Well Child Essay
For this assignment I got the opportunity to visit the day disquiet center inside the campus at the educational building. After signing somewhat papers they took us to this tiny room where they had a one management looking glass with headphones which was connected to the microphone that was setup on the early(a) side of the glass where children were playing. This was or so three oclock were children had their good afternoon nap and they were every(prenominal) very energetic. I could see that those preschoolers were all(prenominal) kindle on things around them.They wanted to touch, taste, let out, smell and test things for themselves. They were all gauge to learn, by trying to do things and by experiencing it themselves. I could as well as notice that they were learning things as they were playing, you could see that they were developing utilize their language and skills and by alike trying to gain control on their environment. After beholding the children playing with the other staff, I pick this cut offe four-year-old girl. I observe her for over three hours and mainly focused on her physical, language, cognitive, social and environmental development.As I said these kids were so energetic that they were running around and making lot of noises, and my preschooler was one of them. She was constantly moving, mostly on her tip toes. She samed to hop on one foot scarce I tangle she is going to fall in any clear however, she managed to somehow keep her balance. She also had her sweatshirt on and kept playing with its bucket along while she was standing. She also used her hands a lot, weather to persuade it in the air, to use her finger to pick up objects, holding objects and reckon with them such as scissors, or to hold markers for drawing.Overall I felt her motor skills were well developed. After she has drawn, the staff member that was with her gave her some strings, slanted papers and few other objects. She was inquireed to use glow to c ut those garble papers and attach them to her drawing to make things like eyes, nose, and lips for her drawing, and although she was able to cut those papers using a scissor, the cuts werent clean at all and they didnt seem to have straight lines.Since we were in that little room, we had to hear these kids talking through a microphone, so it was little hard to distinctly understand how they talk or what they say, but overall their language was good. Her grammar seemed sanction although she mostly talked in past tense. But her language and usage of vocabularies were all age appropriate. I notice that she was stuttering a little bit peculiarly when she tried to talk fast or when she would get excited, she even sounded like me a little bit.Whenever I try to talk fast or think too much against my doctors advice I tend to forget delivery and start stuttering since English is not my primary language. And this also happens to her, it seemed like the ideas come to her mind faster than she is able to express them. She also seems to have developed a good ability to understand and ask questions. She knew that there are yes/no questions and wh- questions to ask for information. Wh-questions involve inquiring words such as who what, where, when and why.I also notice that she barrages her caregiver with a chain of why questions, one right after the other. She was curious and wished to fare more about the care givers personal life. For example she kept enquire her whether or not she had a boyfriend, which was very funny heck even I wanted to know that. Or about other things such as why her mom says she has to eat vegetables and many other WHY questions. besides for every question she demanded an answer and the caregiver usually communicated with her by using age appropriate words and response and by getting pass to her knees and talking to her with face level.
