Add more characteristics for each stage based from your experience and observation.
Sensorimotor Stage (Birth - 2 years)
In this stage, the baby can open and closed their eyes or blinked. When they feel
hungry the baby makes a way to get the attention of his/her mother through crying
aloud. And for the age 2 years, a child becomes stronger and starts to look longer and
leaner. And also, a 2-year-old child is a hyper one all the time. They are so playful and
also, they can tell to their parents what he/she wants.

In this stage, children age 2 to age 7 are able to makes great strides in being able
to think and reason. And always having a confusion in many things. They are always
asking what is this/that, why is this/that happen, and many more questions. 7-year-old
children able to learn how to speak better and be able to follow a longer series of
commands than they could at age 6.
Concrete Operational Stage (from age 7 to 11)

Children in early school years also complain more about tummy aches, leg pains, and
such. That might be because they’re becoming more aware of their bodies. Still, parents
should check these complaints out to make sure there’s no injury or illness. And in this age,
especially girls are very conscious in their body.

they may adopt some information that are not intended to them. That’s why parents
should enhance things that can may help them.

are you going to deal with these situations applying the principles of Developmental
Learning?

1. The teachers asked he Grade 1 student write the answer on the board during their
board work activity in Mathematics, but the student cannot answer the question and
started to cry.
 First thing that I can do is I’m going to talk to my student in a slow voice and I
will be calming him/her and I will motivate him/her to answer the question
through helping him/her to get the right answer in an easy way but I will
assure that he/she will learn from his/her own.
2. Three of the Grade 8 students of Ms. Romero don’t want to participate in the drama
play in English.
 As a teacher, if there are students doesn’t want to participate in the drama
play in my English Class, first thing that I should do is think about my
objectives and the motivation that I gave to them maybe is there something
wrong about it. I will regroup my students and I will give them an effective
motivation to my students to be able to make them an active participant in
our drama play activity and one more thing, I will remove any distractor in my
students and I will tell them that I will give them an incentive for those group
that will make a nice drama play.

Assume that you are already a teacher in high school or elementary. Briefly
discuss how you are going to improve their classroom performance using the
concepts of socio-cultural dimensions of learning.

If I am already an elementary teacher, what I’m going to do is I will assign my


students into groups and I will give them a group activity so that they can interact with
each other and also with me as a teacher. With their group collaboration or our
collaboration, they help them to actively participate in their own learning. They not
only learn from each other but have to comment on other students work as well.
