Physical Development Outcome #1
CDE Foundations
Bubble wands
Directing them towards activities that they are interested in to increase the
likelihood of their sustaining attention longer.
I would like to add more simple wooden blocks, since they were a big hit and many
children at a time wanted to play with them, using them for various play situations.
They combined the dinosaurs and the blocks, and the cars and the blocks
How the children reacted. What aspects of your outcome were enhanced? What
was the level of engagement from the children?
The children were engaged in the activities, by using the materials brought in.
“Infants demonstrate attention maintenance when they attend to people, actions, and
things they find interesting even in the presence of distractions.” (CDE, 2009, pp.
63) They were most engaged with the new cars, the wooden blocks, and the
dinosaur figurines.
Of the seven children in the classroom these three days, all of them came and
interacted with the new materials at least once. Four of the children stayed longer
than five minutes playing with the different materials and returned several times to
the area through the day.
