Unit 1:Understanding personal development and relationships

In pairs, have a go at coming up with a dictionary definition for the terms:

= INCREASE in Physical changes (size/mass)

= INCREASE in skills and abilities

TASK: Can you think of any examples?

EXT: Say WHY it is growth or development

Development

• Development is often broken down into 4 main areas:

• Physical

• Intellectual (inc. language)

• Emotional

• Social

Task: In groups, decide the

best definition for each term

Don’t forget all of the PIES are linked together to help the

development of the person as a whole.

Physical Development – Describes growth patterns and changes in mobility of the large and small muscles in the body that happen throughout life. Intellectual Development – Describes how people develop their thinking skills, memory and language.

infancy (D) • Describe the changes of infancy using

PIES (B/C) • Discuss the key differences or

similarities in development across infancy using PIES (A/A*)

Infancy 0-2 years

STARTER 1. Guess the ages of these children

3. What skills did you develop in infancy?

4. What couldn’t you do between 0-2 years ?

THINK BACK!

6 months 9 months
