, ATH1501 ASSIGNMENT 5 DUE 13 OCTOBER 20231.1 Define the term “developmentally appropriate practice”. (4
Developmentally appropriate practice (DAP) refers to a way of teaching and
providing care for children in a manner that takes into consideration their
individual developmental needs, interests, and abilities. It is an approach that is
guided by knowledge of child development and considers the social, emotional,
cognitive, and physical aspects of children's growth.
DAP is based on the understanding that children are active learners who
construct their knowledge and understanding of the world through interactions
with their environment, materials, and people around them. It emphasizes
providing experiences and activities that are challenging enough for children to
learn and grow, but not overwhelming or beyond their current abilities.
The National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) defines
developmentally appropriate practice as "teaching that is based on what we
know about how children develop and learn and what we know about the
strengths, interests, and needs of each individual child." (Bredekamp & Copple,
2017, p. 19). The Association for Childhood Education International (ACEI) states
that DAP includes providing a safe and supportive learning environment,
offering a variety of learning experiences, and understanding and respecting the
individuality of each child (ACEI, 2003).
