Crombie developed a screening assessment that emphasized five major learning areas. Literary-rich environments constituting emotional, personal, and social development looks at family culture and home life as the key influencers on young children’s development. In communication and language, preschool children who lack rhyme awareness and phonological skills may encounter difficulties reading and writing later in life.
Memory serves a significant role in communication and learning skills and the ability to remember a story’s sequence and retell it. Between 19 and 24 months, children develop skills like sequencing, naming, ordering, and categorization. A child learns through the multisensory method through seeing, hearing, saying, touching, acting out, and smelling.
Lastly, fine coordination and gross motor skills in physical development and movement are observable when the child plays and writes. Balance, therefore, becomes a significant ability since a child with poor balancing abilities most likely experiences difficulties learning.
