Understanding Learner Milestones supports teachers with understanding various stages of child development. They will learn to identify milestones so that they are better able to generate appropriate teaching strategies to address students’ cognitive, emotional and physical needs.
The goal is to develop teaching practices that address the “whole child” and to consider ways to support learners who may be struggling.
Teachers will be able to explain various child development stages and milestones and then generate cognitive, emotional, and physically appropriate strategies to those development stages to foster “whole child” development by scripting and planning a development plan for learners with developmental delays.
