Choose a specific age and describe a developmental delay that might be observable during this stage. Imagine that a parent of one of your students is concerned their child is exhibiting signs of this developmental delay. Keeping in mind that teachers cannot diagnose disabilities, address the following in your post:
- Describe the observable behaviors that a child with this delay might exhibit.
- How might this delay impact their learning needs in the classroom?
- Describe to the parent how a quality preschool curriculum and inclusive environment provides support and facilitates development in this child.
