Desarrollo del niño en edad escolar.

Abstract

The lack of scientific knowledge about the development of the child often leads to a failure in the educational work. That is why the person who prepares to be an authentic "teacher" must identify and apply the theoretical and practical foundations of developmental psychology, so that he or she can plan his or her educational work according to the level of progressive maturity of his or her students. Knowing what can be expected from school-age children, in terms of psychomotor, cognitive, personality and social development, is essential to understand and guide, in an appropriate manner, each of the stages of the child's developmental life. If one has the indispensable knowledge about these traits, it will be possible not only to treat them in a more faithful and effective way, but also to adopt a more objective attitude when observing individual differences. In order to have a general vision of the development of the child, in the period that corresponds to the school age, this book has been written, that surely will answer many questions that will have been formulated by those people that, in one way or another, have something to do with the child, such as educators, parents, psychologists, etc.
