1.2 Explain how development and learning are inconnected. How and why variations occur in rate and sequence of development and learning. That learning may take place in different ways. The importance of play.
Development and learning are interconnected as first a child has to learn a new skill and will then go on to develop this before moving on to learn a new skill and create a pattern of learning. An example of this would be a child feeding themselves, when first weening a care giver will feed the child, offering encouragement for them to open their mouth. The child will identify the pattern that they open their mouths and food is placed inside. As the child develops motor skills they may be offered a spoon to attempt to feed themselves, at the same time as the care giver feeds them, to ensure they are getting enough food as in most cases they will be unable to successfully feed themselves every spoon full. As the child develops further they will learn to use a spoon and feed themselves independently.
Variations occur in the rate and sequence of development as each child is an individual, has different interests and have had different life experiences so far. At my setting we have a set of twins. Both children have different interests and although they are developing within the same sequence the same cannot be said for the rate at which this is being done. One child spoke before the other, although one walked before the other, whilst both followed the same sequence of sitting before walking and babbling before talking.
Children are individuals and as such will learn in different ways, whether by visual, auditory, kinesthetic or tactile means. The learning style of the child is based upon the use of five senses being involved in the learning process and which is then transferred into their preferred style of learning. This is why it is important to have
