The cephalocaudal pattern is where the greatest development takes place at the top of the body, i.e. the head, and physical development moves gradually downwards, e.g. neck, shoulders, trunk, etc.

It's a developmental pattern. It also follows a functional pattern

It means an infant will gain control over their neck muscles first, which allows them to hold their head steady. (Functioning of the parts of the body! )

What is learned helplessness?

Learned helplessness occurs when an individual continuously faces a negative, uncontrollable situation and stops trying to change their circumstances, even when they can do so.



When a Child is not able to face the negativity and this is repeated for a long while, he will eventually acquire behaviour, where he starts believing that He Won't Succeed At All.



When a child is not able to do what other students can do in Group activities, and when this happens for a long while, he will start developing a sense of Learned helplessness.

Remedial programs are designed to close the gap between what a student knows and what he’s expected to know. 

In many cases, students are removed from their regular classroom and taught in another setting.

I.e Pull Out and Push-In approach.

But some students may not make progress in remedial programs. This could be a sign of a  learning disability.


And students who have a learning disability are more likely to require more specialized instruction.

-What is Dysgraphia?

Dysgraphia is a neurological disorder that generally appears when children are first learning to write. 

Dysgraphia can appear as difficulties with spelling and/oo put putting thoughts on paper

-What causes dysgraphia?

When dysgraphia develops in adults, the cause is usually a stroke or other brain injury. In particular, injury to the brain's left parietal lobe may lead to dysgraphia

-Can we diagnose it?

For years, dysgraphia was an official diagnosis. It no longer is.

But there is a diagnosis called Specific Learning Disorder with impairment in written expression.

This refers to trouble expressing thoughts in writing, rather than transcription difficulties.
While letter formation and other types of motoric dysgraphia can be diagnosed at the age of five or six years old.
