Answer: I realize at the age of 14 that life is filled with challenges and hurdles. It helped
me realize that I should consider every decision and its implications.

role as a facilitator of learning? Let‟s play particular attention to the stages that
correspond to schooling-early childhood, middle and late childhood adolescence.
Let‟s do #1. Early Childhood- what are preschool teachers supposed to do with pre-
schoolers? Help them develop readiness for school and not to be too academic in
teaching approach. They ought to give much time for pre-schoolers to play. Or perhaps
help pre-schoolers develop school readiness by integrating children‟s games in school
activities.
Elementary school teacher‟s ought to help their pupils by encourage and establish
behavioral rules and procedures to ensure children learn and maintain order. They give
student updates to guardians or parents on the child's progress, special needs, or
improvements. An elementary school teacher motivates students and encourages them
to overcome challenges in learning.

B 1. Developmental tasks are only for the first 3 stages of human development.
A 2. Failure of achieving developmental tasks in an earlier stage also means failure for
the learner to master the developmental task in the next stage.

II. Reflection
1. Reflect on your early childhood, middle and late childhood days. Were you able to
acquire the developmental tasks expected of early, middle, late childhood and
adolescence? What facilitated your acquisition of the ability to perform such tasks?
Write your reflection.
When I was a year old, my mom taught me how to walk, even though sometimes I fell
down. They also taught me how to say the words "papa" and "mama". Then, when I was 4 years
old, my mom sent me to school as a toodler. I was a gleeful child that enjoyed being socialized
with others and loved to interact. After a month, I learned a lot of things. I can write my name,
know how to color, have good values, and everything else.
When I was 7, I was a year-to pupil. good decision making over a person's lifetime. I became
independent by making simple choices like what to wear, what I wanted to drink or eat. At the
same time, I already know how to cook my own food , read, write, and do arithmetic. I believe
that my ability to live independently and make choices and control my life evolves over a period
of time.
2. Having mastered the developmental tasks of early childhood middle and late
childhood and adolescence, reflect on what you should do as a teacher to facilitate your
students‟‟ acquisition of these developmental tasks. Write down your reflection
As a future teacher, understanding the different development tasks across the life stages of
learners is essential. It guides the teacher in providing an environment that will encourage the
students to learn and teach them that it is OK to be wrong sometimes. Also, I would give
activities that all of them could relate to, learn from, and develop.
