For class this week, I had the opportunity of filling out an environmental checklist for my peers infants' house as well as meeting both of the infants we will be working with. I was grateful for the warm environment of both of the families and their willingness to let me and my peer come and work with their children.
Going through the Ages and Stages questionnaire was interesting because I have an infant who is a couple of months younger than one of our infants. It was interesting to look at both of their motor abilities because my daughter is almost caught up to one of them. I was excited to see the infant we will be working with doing a lot of the same things Zandi does because I felt like my peer and I would be able to help her to progress a lot as we plan activities specifically for her.
I also was excited to find out that my infant is going to be working on language development because my toddler in toddler lab also has this goal so I have been researching for this already. I look forward to learning more strategies from Sister Swenson that I can implement with both of the infants we will be working with.
I haven't received feedback on my activity plan based on a case study yet, but it was beneficial to fill it out for someone before filling it out for my infant so I can have practice making the activities developmentally appropriate.
