Crawling, standing, and walking.o Fine-motor development. Reaching and grasping.o Sequence is fairly uniform, though individual rate of motor progress differs.- Motor Skills as Dynamic Systems:o Increasingly complex systems of action with each skill.o Each new skill is joint product of:These notes represent a detailed interpretation of the professor’s lecture. GradeBuddy is best used as a supplement to your own notes, not as a substitute. CNS development. Body’s movement capacity. Child’s goals. Environmental support; like child on the stomach.- Cultural Variations in Motor Development:o Rates and patterns of development affected by: Early movement opportunities. Environmental stimulation. Child-rearing practices.- Developments in Hearing:o 4-7 months; sense of musical phrasing.o 6-8 months; “screen out” from non-native languages.o 7-9 months; recognize familiar words, natural phrasing in native language.- Improvements in Vision:o Supported by rapid maturation of eyes and visual centers in the brain.o Improvements: 2 months; focus and color vision. 6 months; acuity, scanning, and tracking. 6-7 months; depth perception.- Milestones in Face Perception:o Birth-1 month; prefer simple, face-like pattern.o 2-4 months; prefer complex facial pattern to other complex patterns, can distinguish strange from familiar faces, and prefer mother’s face over stranger.o 5-12 months; can perceive emotion on a person’s
