Unit 2

 This unit is about the expression and communication in preschool. 

In this part, I´m going to explain how to develop the creativity in preschool. The creativity may be defined as the process of creating original ideas and using abstract thinking to find solutions to problems. 

Firstly, to develop the creativity, as an adult, you have to create an environment that stimulates the creativity of the child. This could be done by art projects, giving different material, showing diversity and presenting unexpected objects. 

As the teacher/parent you should exhibit an attitude that promotes creativity. You can do this by exposing multiple solutions to a problem, beign flexible with the instructions, leting the child play wiht his imagination, by being non judgment and making questions or giving choices.

You can propose activities that help children to develop creativity such as brainstorming games or art projects.

Lastly, you must avoid things that kill the creativity, do not reward the children or make expectations. Also try nos to watch over a kid while doing an activity, he must feel more nervous or change his way of acting. 

As a recommendation, try to let the children have their own creativity, don´t let yours influences affect what you provide to the student/kid.

 In this unit we learned about the graphic expression, I´m going to talk about the aspects involved in it: • Motor aspects: related to the neuromuscular control: hand-eye coordination, postural adjustment, pressure of the pencil and proper pencil grip • Cognitive aspects: child expresses what they know, through the drawings, the child “talks” about his knowledge of the objects.  According to Piaget, the children develop the symbolic function if they master the ability to picture an object that is not in front of them. • Perceptual aspects: refers to the shapes and characteristics of the stroke, size and place of figures • Affective aspects: the child expresses his inner world, his emotions and communicates with the adult Ages :  Around 18 months, the baby made his first scribbles (without control and very quickly).
