Topic 1 Course Description:
4 Clock Hours
CDA Settings:
  • Infant/Toddler
  • Preschool
  • Family Child Care (Mixed-Age)
​Early childhood educators should consider their role as an approach to teaching the whole child. Children are complicated little creatures with vast differences and many considerations to be had. There are countless developmental milestones to be familiar with and to consider when working with children. This course will discuss developmental milestones, child development domains, brain development and how early childhood educators can use this information to inform their interactions with the children in their classroom. 
Learning Outcomes:
  • ​Discuss developmental guidelines for certain ages
  • Explain an analogy for serve and return
  • Analyze common developmental milestones and red flags through different levels of development
  • Differentiate between development and growth
  • Examine developmentally appropriate practice strategies 
**  A special thank you to Aurora Tollestrup, BS Ed for developing the curriculum for this topic. ** ​
