Nine Principles of Child Development and Learning
Development and Learning are dynamic processes that reflect the complex interplay between a child’s biological characteristics and the environment, each shaping the others as well as future patterns of growth.
All domains of child development – physical development, cognitive development, social and emotional development, and linguistic development (including bilingual or multilingual) as well as approaches to learning are important; each domain both supports and is supported by the others.
Play promotes joyful learning that fosters self-regulation, language, cognitive and social competencies as well as content knowledge across disciplines from birth to age 8.
Although general progressions of development and learning can be identified, variations due to cultural context, experiences and individual differences must also be considered.
Children are active learners from birth, constantly taking in and organizing information to create meaning through their relationships, their interactions with their environment, and their overall experiences
Children’s motivation to learn is increased when their learning environment fosters their sense of belonging, purpose and agency. Curricula and teaching methods build on each child’s assets by connecting their experiences in the school or learning environment to their home or community settings
Children learn in an integrated fashion that cuts across academic disciplines or subject areas. Because the foundations of subject-area knowledge are established in early childhood, educators need subject- area knowledge, an understanding, of the learning progressions within each subject area, and pedagogical knowledge about teaching each subject areas content effectively.
Development and leaning advance when children are challenged to achieve mastery and when they have many opportunities to reflect on and practice newly acquired skills
Used responsibly and intentionally, technology and interactive media can be valuable tools for supporting children’s development and learning.
