BTEC Tech Award HSC Component 1 Childhood 2024-2025

BTEC Tech Award Level 1/2 Health and Social Care Component 1 - a complete teaching package to pick-up and run with. This covers what is needed for the life stage Early Childhood (3-8 years)

If you are following my SoW 2024-2025 this is Week 3 is the delivery of all aspects covering growth and development in the second life stage, childhood 3-8 years.

The pace has to be reasonably fast to get the content delivered, there is one PowerPoint you can use split for different lessons.

All the spec content is included in one presentation with 59 slides which have animation so text is delivered in chunks. These cover the expected key characteristics in each of the PIES classifications. This will allow the lesson to finish on a slide that suits you, however, to keep up with the SoW the whole of the below will need to be delivered in one week.

Physical: continued growth of weight and height, mastery of gross and fine motor skills
Intellectual: increased curiosity, language fluency develops, strong grasp of memory/recall
Emotional: increased independence, wider range of relationships are formed, emotional wellbeing is based on attachment, security and contentment
Social: social circle widens and close friendships are formed, socialisation continues through family and also friends/carers, social play develops

Along the way there are Pause-Points to encourage engagement, but the presentation is adaptable to suit you teaching style. Optional video’s are on certain slides, depending how you are getting on for time.

In order for students to build up their own work to refer to when they sit the PSA Tasks, they will need to have notes which cover all the spec and be able to understand the relevance of these when writing up their Task 1, which is 1.5 hours long (next page). Throughout the presentation there is reference to the criteria as it’s a combination of knowing the key characteristics in a life stage and then also knowing the sequence and changes through the life stage eg. a 6-month-old compared to an 18-month-old. For visual learners these are demonstrated as steps, and these are coloured for each of the PIES.

There is a Level 1 homework task and a Level 2 homework tasks… Homework sheets are on Word and can be adapted.
