This course will emphasize the importance of understanding the natures of all children and how they learn. Students will learn to adapt curricula and intervention approaches for children with special needs building on a strong foundation of understanding what is common to all young children. The course will be organized according to the developmental domains. Special emphasis will stress the necessity of understanding the young child in the context of his or her family. Finally, while it is equally important students understand the developmental domains as well as an individual child's and his or her family's background, students must be able to synthesize all factors to create a complete view of the whole child.
