I'll be glad to check your answers.
UM... Erin sits up by herself and is fed!!
Good heavens, haven't you ever seen a newborn infant? And you're taking a child care class? Didn't you read anything in your text about infants?
This is the first thing a child does:
moves her head and mouth towards her bottle when being fed.
I don't see anything in your choices about your answer.
Sorry i was talking about number 3: sorry i am in middle school and we are takin pre Teaching classes and we are on this lesson about childcare. So that was part of my home-work.
Ahhh! Thanks for the explanation.
Before a child can use a spoon or cup, she eats with her fingers. Cheerios is a favorite with many kids.
Based on the developmental skills and abilities, the correct order of the events would be:
1. Erin sits up by herself and can move food from her hand to her mouth.
2. Erin picks up cereal pieces with her fingers and loves to play with mashed potatoes.
3. Erin moves her head and mouth towards her bottle when being fed.
4. Erin gets food into her mouth with a spoon and can hold her own cup successfully.
Explanation:
First, Erin develops the ability to sit up by herself and begins to coordinate her hand movements to pick up food and bring it to her mouth. This is a crucial developmental milestone that usually starts around 6-8 months.
Then, Erin begins to develop fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination, allowing her to pick up small cereal pieces with her fingers and explore different textures with her food, such as mashed potatoes. This typically happens around 8-10 months.
Next, Erin starts showing head and mouth control, being able to turn her head and open her mouth when a bottle is presented during feeding. This motion indicates that she is ready to be more actively involved in the feeding process, which typically happens around 4-6 months.
Lastly, as Erin's motor skills continue to develop, she gains the ability to use a spoon and hold her own cup successfully. This requires more refined hand and mouth coordination, which usually starts around 12-18 months.
It is important to note that every child develops at their own pace, so the timeline may vary slightly for each individual.
