CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Around age three and continuing to age six, children assert themselves more frequently. They begin to plan activities, make up games, and initiate activities with others. If given this opportunity, children develop a sense of initiative, and feel secure in their ability to lead others and make decisions.

Detailed explanation-2: -Erikson’s third stage of psychosocial development occurs during preschool, between the ages of three and five years. At this point in our psychosocial development – when conflict occurs between initiative and guilt – we learn to assert ourselves and typically begin to direct play and social interactions.

Detailed explanation-3: -Erikson’s third stage deals with initiative vs. guilt, and the virtue is purpose. Stage 3 builds on the autonomy stage and is strengthened by both independence and limit setting. Like most stages, this is a balancing act of learning to initiate activities and play and trying out leadership.

Detailed explanation-4: -Identity versus role confusion is the fifth stage of ego in psychologist Erik Erikson’s theory of psychosocial development. This stage occurs during adolescence between the ages of approximately 12 and 18. During this stage, adolescents explore their independence and develop a sense of self.
