This has been an interesting week for me as I have learned about holistic development.

Holistic development  basically implies the improvement  of intellectual, mental, physical, enthusiastic, and social capacities in a child with the goal that the individual is fit for confronting the request and difficulties of regular daily existence. These capacities are fundamentally significant for achievement in proficient fields of work. Each child is exceptional.

This study unit has taught me so much about music education and how it plays a big role in the child's development. I've also learned about theories that help in the child's development and are as follows,

1. Erikson's stage of psychosocial development.

2. Piaget's cognitive development theory. This ha two operational stages which are;( a) Pre-operational stage and (b) Concrete operational stage.

3. Vygotsky and the zone of proximal development.

This theories will help me as a foundation teacher to teach music in class. I have no doubt that my children will enjoy my music education. Even though I could not have drums to use in music, I know that I could always clap hands, step feet and use movements with my learners to make our music education much enjoyable.
