Reading Assignment #3
1. Summarize the 2 most important points from Ch. 6 and explain why they are important (2
paragraphs)
The first important points from chapter six is direction of movement. The
movement is in the direction of movement that is the nature of the movement is made
visible. There are many ways for direction of movement like throwing a ball to hit the
blocks and if they missed then they will figure out a different direction to go when
throwing the ball. Another example is a maze and a ball. Having the children grabbing
the box and moving it around the maze to get the ball to hit the hole of the end of the
maze.
The second important point is the mysterious movement. The reason why it is
important is because the children do not know why the different types of objects and
movement are made and the children will never know. But having a mysterious
movement can help the children gain their interest keep their focus on the result
movement instead of knowing how the movement is made and what causes this type of
movement.
2. Summarize the 2 most important points from Ch. 7 and explain why they are important (2
paragraphs)
One of the important points in chapter seven is patterns. The reason why I find it
important is because pattern can be viewed as a form balance in a way that involve the
reproduction of a visual image, sound, or an object over and over. Understanding pattern
is huge in math and science; in math they are used to create as a building block for much

angles. Children can use many different tools to compare and measure these variables to
help them with their curiosity and to also help them with and to also encourage the

One of the important point is physical development and how children use
different fine motor and gross motor when using physical development. Preschoolers are
very physical creatures due to the running, moving, and jumping. Children will do
anything and will react to joyfulness to many opportunities for dancing, creative different
movement, physical dramatic play, and being outdoor where they can move without
anyone trying to stop them from doing different movement and many others. Having
children use physical development can help them use many fine motor and gross motor to
see how they are connected to our body and to explore many things by trying different
different emotions when there are other children around can be good to see how they will
react to other children, caregivers, and teachers. Children have positive and negative
emotions that serve important functions. Children positive emotions are; happy, excited,
joy, hope, interest, kindness, surprise, and cheerfulness. Children negative emotions are;
fear, anxiety, dread, anger, rage, sorrow, grief, frustrations, and disappointment. Children
use these emotions to show us what they are feeling and to also help us try to fix those
emotions back to a positive emotions so the child can stay happy and not be feeling the
negative emotions.
