The unity of man and nature. Human beings live in the realm of nature‚ they are constantly surrounded by it and interact with it. The most intimate part of nature in relation to man is the biosphere‚ the thin envelope embracing the earth‚ its soil cover‚ and everything else that is alive.

There are many different theories of development that help us to understand children’s behaviour‚ reactions and ways of learning. All equally important as they influence practice. To begin with there is Piaget’s constructivist theories which look at the way in which children seem to be able to make sense of their world as a result of their experiences and how they are active learners. He also suggested that as children develop so does their thinking. Piaget’s work has influenced early years settings

Based on this theory early years schools have a child centred teaching approach. Teachers will look at the children’s needs and plan activities accordingly.

Heredity and Hormones Human behavior is influenced by heredity and hormones. There are many parts to this‚ such as the endocrine system‚ glands that secrete hormones‚ genetics‚ behavior genetics‚ and evolutionary psychology. The following is a closer look at the endocrine system and hormones. The endocrine system works in conjunction with the nervous system using what is termed “chemical conversation.” The endocrine glands release substances referred to as hormones that
