In order to advance physical and intellectual development I have set the following goals to myself. My first goal is to foster language development by making it a goal to provide many opportunity that allow children to communicate. I will do this by providing good language model for children, using grammated speech I would do this by picking up when Childs speaks. For example if the child says I have two finger I would repeat after him and say yes you have two hands. I would also provide unverbal communication by having different picture up in the wall where the children can look at and practice daily.
My second goal is to provide physical development. I would provide physical development by having activities that contain, fine motor and gross motor activities. I would promote fine motor skills by having the children play with play dough during playtime and make different shapes using play dough shape cutter, Rollin pin and plastic play dough scissor. I would also have children use spoons and tongs during lunchtime to grip their own food and serve themself. I will promote gross motor skills by taking time during the day to have children dance and move different body movement while playing music that instruct them to move their bodies in different ways. I would also have children play different activities and games during gym time and outdoor play. This is the way I will promote physical and intellectual development for children.
