ECE200 Supporting Sensory and Motor Development End-of-Course Assessment 2026

ECE200 End-of-Course Assessment

(Total 100 marks)

Question 1

Observe a child or a group of children over the course of one day in an early childhood education setting and present the flow of activities in a table as shown below.

For each activity, indicate how specific senses are functioning (Sensory development), and how specific motor skills (gross motor, fine motor, compound movements, etc.) are utilised (Motor development). You may include details of what you observed but keep your notes concise.

(20 marks)

Question 2

(Continued from question 1) Using the context of a particular child engaged in one of the activities indicated above, illustrate how the child’s sensory and motor experiences influence other developmental domains (cognitive, social, emotional, and/or language development) during the activity. Apply concepts from materials covered in this course to support your discussion.

If necessary, use a pseudonym or first initial when referring to the individual.

(20 marks)

Question 3

(Continued from question 1) For one of the activities indicated above, distinguish between child-initiated and adult-initiated elements of the activity. Comment on the current balance observed with the activity. If it is good, how so? If it can be improved, illustrate ways to strike a better balance between child-initiated and adult-initiated qualities of experience. Use local frameworks and course materials to substantiate your discussion.

(20 marks)

Question 4

(Continued from question 1) Select one activity from your schedule of observed activities in question 1 and answer both parts a) and b) below.  

a) Describe and appraise the indoor and/or outdoor environment of the activity based on considerations for conducive engagement and learning.

Your discussion should include at least ONE (1) of the following considerations:

• Factors that support or hinder children’s sensorial regulation or active participation
• How the environment promotes sensory and motor development
• How the environment fosters child-initiated and/or adult-initiated activity

(15 marks)

b) Suggest how one can modify the environment (physical, sensorial, temporal, interactional, relational, etc.) or facilitative strategy in the activity to cater to children with developmental variations (sensory processing issues or atypical motor development). Explain how the suggested adaptations will better support children with diverse learning needs.
