Create a child interactive

Read Chapter 3 in your textbook. Like the previous assignment, you will create a child (though a completely different one): choose an age between preschool and 15 years and create a story about the child. Give your child’s name, gender, family and school. Describe the child’s cognitive, social, emotional, and moral stage of development. This time, not only will you refer to the theories of Erikson and Kohlberg in your story, but you will read other discussion posts and, when possible, make your child friends with other students’ children. Like before, be sure that your response is detailed enough to show reflection on the theories of Chapter 3. THIS IS WORTH 50 POINTS.

discussionn post my class has posted:
My child’s name is Macie Varner, she is a 7 year old little girl. Her family includes myself, her father, and her older brother. She attends Maysville Elementary, and is in the second grade. Cognitively, Macie has moved into the concrete operational stage. In this stage, her thinking is less egocentric and centered, and she has a better ability to think logically. She is not yet able to think abstractly. Social and emotional development often go hand in hand. For Macie, she is in Erickson’s stage four of psychosocial development. This stage is called Industry versus Inferiority, and is a critical time for the development of self image. Macie is sensitive to failure, and the thought of failing, especially in the eyes of family, teachers or peers, makes her self esteem go down. This is why it is also important at this stage to make reactions positive, despite if a mistake was made or not. Moral development, according to Kohlberg, has three levels with different stages within each of them. As for Macie, she falls under stage three of the conventional level. In this stage, there is a “good girl” orientation. In the words of Kohlberg, “Judgement regarding one’s behavior is determined by others’ approval. Being nice helps them earn that approval.” Overall, Macie is a a great kid with endless potential. I am glad to know these things about her development so that I can help in any way she may need.

Another:Mia cook is a first-grade student at Oconee Elementary School. Mia is a six-year-old female. She has one older sister and her mom. Mia is currently in stage 4, Industry Versus Inferiority, of Erickson’s psychosocial development stage, and the pre-conventional level of Kohlberg’s stages of moral reasoning. Mia is known for being smart, outgoing, and kind; she befriended everyone and loved making everyone smile. Especially her sixth-grade friend Amy Jenkins. Amy Jenkins and Mia grew up together because both moms are great friends. Although, Mia was not always like this. A couple of years ago her dad died in a car accident and it took a big toll on her. It affected her social-emotional development drastically. She never asked for help even when she was struggling, she even pretended like she knew what she was doing. She was mean to her peers even when they were trying to help her. This, later on, affected her self-esteem. she thought that asking for help meant she was dumb. Her grades continued to drop. Amy Jenkins saw Mia struggling with her homework and offered to help. Mia did not hesitate to say yes. Which resulted in Mia getting better grades, having higher self-esteem, and being kind. Amy Jenkins helped Mia in Erikson, Industry versus inferior stage, by helping her self-esteem which helped her lead to success. Amy Jenkins also helped Mia in Kohlber’s, pre-conventional level, by getting help from Amy to satisfy her interest, which was getting a good grade. Mia knew about Amys’ struggles which encouraged her to be kind to others because not only did it make others happy but also Mia.
