P.I.E.S are Physical, Intellectual, Emotional, Social
What is fine motor skill and gross motor skills - CORRECT -fine motor skills is mean control of the
smaller muscle in the hands like finger and toes. example ais hold spoon.
Gross motor skills is means that the infant can start to control to larger muscle of the body e.g.: crawling,
walking, running.
what is infancy 0-2 - CORRECT -baby are born with several reflexes which are 1. rooting, sucking,
swalloing, grasping, stepping, startle reflex. Baby can move very little when they are born and have very
little muscled co-ordination. very quickly able to focus with eyes and ear.
gross and fine motor skills for infancy - CORRECT -1 month- can lift head slightly, can grasp
finger 3month- can lift head and neck with some control, can hold toy
6 month- straight back when sitting up, will make noise when offered toy 9
month- can maintain stepping, let go of objects with fingers
, 12 month- can sit from lying down, pick small object with pincer movements
1-2 years- walking forwards, draw circle and lines.
gross and fine motor skills for early childhood - CORRECT -3- can use pedal on bike, control movements
of pencil
5- children hop using foot, dress and undress themselves
8- good strength and coordination, draw detailed image.
What is adolescence 9-18 - CORRECT -Adolescence is an important statues of change following the onset
of puberty during which child develop to young persons.
Puberty: is developmental stage that prepare the body for sexual reproduction it is trigged by the action of

comes to an end in process called menopause. Symptoms are no more periods, hot flushes and night
sweats, less ostrogen. The ageing process are increased weight, skin loses Elastic, grey hair, Hair loses.
Later Adulthood 65+ - CORRECT -deterioration of health: decrease in height, increased risk of organ
failure, increased heart disease, strength and muscle loss, reduced stamina, less mobility, slower
reactions, visual and hearing Problems.
Piaget's Theory - CORRECT -one theories who provided insight into cognitive development was the
swiss developmental Psychologist Jean Piaget. His research focused on how children acquire the ability
to think. children thinks differently to adults. 4 years old cannot use Abstract Logical thinking as they are
not mature enough. that infants use Egocentric thinking, around 7 use simple concrete logical thinking to
solve problems.
