When I Think of Child Development

No one has yet realized the wealth of sympathy, the kindness and generosity hidden in the soul of a child. The effort of every true education should be to unlock that treasure.
Emma Goldman

When I think about Child Development is to see children develop what is hidden in their heart that needs to be develop and used. Children need to know how to express themselves and used their unique develop in communication. Some children have the love, kindness, and compassion for other children and adult. When children see adults using their kindness, caring, loving and support this would help the child to develop the same action and emotion for one another.

As a child coming up I had the heart for children and adult because of the passion they show towards me. The adult show me love they care about me they supported me in what I would do or what I thought I should do. They gave me advice they show me I could express myself. When I got older those same develop that was hidden develop as I got older and I used them to care for others by giving help to children of every age what they needed to help them to be successfully in education as well as in this world.

Let children use their unique way of develop and communicated with you and let them see the passion you have towards children and one another.

Testing for Intelligence


I believe that the whole child should have things provided to them that would help whole child develop appropriately.  If the child is provided proper food this will give them vitamins and iron that his or her body’s need. I agree with Maslow Theory that food, sleep is what the child needs to function, and develop successful in school as well as the world around them.

When a child first enters the school were I currently work the child is assessed to see what the child knows or does not know. Doing the research I discovered that Australian conducted an assessments with children, the assessment consisted of intelligence, and is primarily conducted by non-Aboriginal educational professionals.  The assessments that was conducted by Aboriginal was not always beneficial to the children and sometimes caused harm to the children. There were many issues surrounding Australian that caused others to conducted more research in an attempt to fix the issues. The goal of fixing the issues with assessments was to insure the children were assessed appropriately.

On my job I use the information to gather from the assessments to help the child so that he or she will pass the assessments on his or her level of development. Working with children is not just receiving a pay check but also recognizing the child’s needs and make sure that areas is addressed so that the child can make progress in his or her learning.
