Assignment 2 – Social and Emotional Development
1. Explain the five broad and emotional aspects of learning.
* Self-awareness
Self-awareness is a Child’s basic understanding of themselves, to know where they fit into their environment be it socially or academically and to recognise their feelings and relationships with others.
For example their role within the classroom can involve a number of things, firstly how their behaviour can affect others whether it is positive or negative and that they must recognise when they are in the wrong. They must also take responsibility for their actions and learning, for example if they are finding a task difficult they must recognise this and seek help. Conversely they will know how to feel positive about something, receiving an award or completing some work. They will realise that thoughts, feelings and behaviour are all linked in some way, and that having emotions is natural, but it doesn’t mean they can behave anyway they choose.
* Managing feelings
When a child becomes motivated they are able to set achievable goals, not become overwhelmed by a large amount of work. They are able to focus without being distracted and know that they can seek help whenever they feel angry, worried or sad.
They will recognise that the way they express their feelings can change the way other people feel for example if they are struggling with a task and they decide its ‘too hard’ and give up people around him/her may be distracted by this resulting in them under achieving too. The same goes for the behaviour of a pupil, they must recognise that their behaviour can affect others so by managing this they can prevent others from hurt or distress.
Become aware of situations that make them feel good inside and know how to seek this in the future for positive learning.
* Motivation
Children that are motivated are enthusiastic and actively prepared to participate in learning, they are able to set themselves goals
