QUESTION 1
1.1
According to the article, the child does not look healthy, his tummy looks bloated, his skin
is scaly and dry, he falls sick and skips school, he seems tired, his teeth are decayed and he
comes from a poor back ground. With all this information it is safe to say that this child is
suffering from Malnutrition.
1.2
Protein – milk, eggs and meat.
Carbohydrates – rice, potatoes and bread.
Fats – fish, cheese and nuts.
Vitamins – nuts, carrots, poultry, fruits and fish.
Minerals – meat, cereal, fish and dairy.
1.3
The physical and emotional development
Emotional reactions that might be caused by problems with physical health:
The hungry or poorly nourished child may be short-tempered, irritable and unable to
concentrate.
The ill child may be very anxious and this could affect adaption to school and the
development of peer relationships.
The obese child may become very self-conscious and withdraw himself/herself because
he/she is teased among friends.
The tired child, who has an insufficient amount of sleep, may overreact at the slightest
provocation. The child can also become very demanding.
All of these emotional responses may have a greater or lesser impact on the child and it
will influence his/her scholastic success.
Alternatively, emotional problems can result in physical symptoms, think about the
emotionally disturbed child who wets his/her bed, vomits or shows other physical
symptoms caused by emotional distress.
The physical health and intellectual development
Children with health certain problems may be deprived of learning opportunities
because their physical mobility is restricted.
Research has shown that a relationship exists between motor skills and academic
achievement. The young child who is thus denied sufficient movement experiences
owning to illness or immobility could be hindered in later academic achievement.
This lack of opportunity to use one’s body is particularly detrimental during the first few
years of life when the child uses his/her body to explore the world.
