This chart
shows some of the steps or milestones of normal child development.
You can use it to figure out where a child is in his/her development, and to
plan the next steps that he/she needs help with.
CAUTION: The development chart shows the average ages when children begin to do things. But the ages at which normal children develop different skills vary greatly.
Just because a child has not developed certain skills by the ages shown
does not mean he is backward or has a problem. Be sure to look at the whole child.
Intelligence
Multiple Intelligences Test (link to test)
This form can help you determine which intelligences are strongest for you. If you're a teacher, tutor or parent, you can also use it to find out which intelligences your learner uses most often.
Language Development
ACCESS Preschool teachers use many multi-sensory strategies to support language development of preschool children.
Using vignettes filmed at an exemplary children's center, students are
introduced to the vocabulary of language studies. Dr. Honig describes
the development of spoken language in infancy, toddlerhood and early
childhood. She details strategies caregivers should use to nourish
language development during the early stages of language acquisition.
The video abounds with excellent examples of adults interacting verbally
with children, illustrating Dr. Honigs ardent belief in the importance
of language to the intellectual, social and emotional development of
young children. With Alice Sterling Honig, Ph.D. This is a short clip
from the film. Further information is available at
