The activity for Ch. 6 and 7 this week requires you to pretend you are conducting a parent meeting, in which you will present the topic of perceptual development and how to set up an environment to support gross motor development. Keep this in mind as you complete this discussion.
1. In order to understand perceptual development, it is first important to define related concepts. Define and explain: Perception, Sensory Integration, and Tactile Perception.
2. List each of the 5 senses and explain what caregivers need to know about each. How can you support “multi-sensory” experiences outdoors?
