Introductory Message
Welcome to TVL 11– HE (Caregiving)!

The Learning Activity Sheet is a product of the collaborative efforts of

the Schools Division of Sagay and DepEd Regional Office VI-Western Visayas
through the Curriculum and Learning Management Division (CLMD). This is
developed to guide the learning facilitators (teachers, parents and responsible adults)
in helping the learners meet the standards set by the K to 12 Basic Education
Curriculum.

The Learning Activity Sheet is self-directed instructional materials aimed to

guide the learners in accomplishing activities at their own pace and time using the
contextualized resources in the community. This will also assist the learners in
acquiring the lifelong learning skills, knowledge and attitudes for productivity and
employment.

For learning facilitator:

The TVL 11 – HE (Caregiving) Activity Sheet will help you facilitate the
teaching-learning activities specified in each Most Essential Learning Competency
(MELC) with minimal or no face-to-face encounter between you and learner. This will
be made available to the learners with the references/links to ease the independent
learning.

For the learner:

The TVL – HE (Caregiving) Activity Sheet is developed to help you continue

learning even if you are not in school. This learning material provides you with
meaningful and engaging activities for independent learning. Being an active learner,
carefully read and understand the instructions then perform the activities
and answer the assessments. This will be returned to your facilitator on the agreed
schedule.

II. Background Information for Learners

Sleeping Patterns and Practices of Children

How much sleep a child needs each day depends on age. Newborns sleep
about 15 to 20 hours and are awake about 1 to 2 hours between periods of sleep.
Infants sleep about 14 to 16 hours including nighttime sleep, morning naps and
afternoon naps. Two to three years old sleep for about 13-15 hours. Three to five years
old sleep for about 12-14 hours and five to six years old sleep for about 11-13 hours.

Here are some ways to improve your child’s sleep.

1. Make sure your baby is not hungry when you put him to bed. Feed your baby right
before bedtime so he or she is not hungry when put to bed.

2. Place your child in bed when he is sleepy but not yet asleep. Make sure your child is
still awake when he is put down for naps and at bedtime. Placing your baby in bed
while he is still awake lets him learn to fall asleep on his own.

3. Remember to always place your child on his back when putting him to bed, up to
one year of age.

4. Have a nighttime routine and a regular sleep schedule.

5. Do not let your child nap for too long or too late in the day. Try to limit naps to no
more than 3 hours. Also, make sure your child is awake from the afternoon nap by 4
pm. Children who sleep later than 4 pm may not be ready to go back to sleep when
it is their bedtime.

4
 6. Do not put your child in bed with a bottle or cup. Sleeping with milk or juice in the
mouth can lead to cavities and tooth decay.

7. Consider offering a pacifier at nap time and bedtime. If your newborn is

breastfeeding, wait until after breastfeeding is well established before offering a
pacifier. This is usually around 3 to 4 weeks of age. Using a pacifier may reduce the
risk of sudden infant death syndrome.

Interaction between Physical, Social and Psychological Development of Children

Physical development is one domain of development. It relates to the changes, growth

and skill development of the body, including the brain, muscles and senses. Physical
development is evident primarily in gross-motor and fine-motor skills. These skills are essential
to children’s overall health and wellness. Gross-motor skills involve the use of large muscles in
the legs or arms, as well as general strength and stamina. Examples of such skills include
jumping, throwing, climbing, running, skipping or kicking. Fine-motor skills involve the use of
small muscles in the arms, hands, and fingers and are supported by advancements in
perception. Examples of such skills include stringing beads, scribbling, cutting or drawing.
Fine-motor skills enable children to perform a variety of self-help tasks such as using utensils
or dressing themselves.

Children’s motor abilities develop as a result of physical development and growth. As

their bodies mature over time, children progressively strengthen their muscles and become
able to better control their bodies. Skill mastery and development, however, are also the result
of brain growth and development. Consider a child kicking a ball back and forth with a peer.
This child must have acquired control over movement and muscles to be able to kick the ball.
At the same time, the child also depends on vision to determine the location and direction in
which to kick the ball and on hearing for instructions from a peer or caregiver. As children
move through the school-age years, their bodies and minds become capable of increasingly
more-complex movement patterns and experiences.

Physical activity also provides children with access to learning across domains. A
school-age child who joins a group soccer game is broadening his or her social connections.
The negative consequences of inactivity for children are stark. Children are explorers, and their
brains develop through activity and movement. Children who are not active are more likely to
have behavior problems in school or to have trouble with academics.
