Step-by-step explanation

1. Explain the adaptive value of rough play and domain hierarchies.

 Children will experience new motor skills, which tend to improve as they get older. These, getting stronger quickly and with better coordination, find great pleasure in putting a test of their body and the new skills they have learned.

Rough play is about vigorous play that includes fighting, hitting, and bumping into each other, often accompanied by laughter and screaming.

It is very important that children practice rough play because they help them develop certain skills that they will need to be able to defend themselves in the world. By playing these types of games, the children acquire many learning lessons such as: the detected understanding is the limits of their strength and learning to measure, discover the reactions of other children, learn and practice role plays, identify personal limits, that when you say "enough is enough", you must stop, take turns, make agreements, comply with them and respect them.

In the practice of these games is where the hierarchies of mastery are maintained, boys play with boys and girls with girls.

2. Allison, nine, thinks she is not good at sports and doesn't like physical education class. Suggest some strategies that your teacher can use to improve your pleasure and participation in physical activity.

Some of the strategies that your teacher could use with the intention of encouraging you to participate in physical activities and what are pleasurable are:

Let her choose the physical activity she wants to do herself.

When you have any difficulties, provide emotional support, letting them know that you can, as there will be times when you may feel insecure, ridiculous, etc.

Explain to you the great benefits of practicing sport.

Teach her to learn to have fun by doing some physical activity.

3. Select one of the following middle childhood health problems: myopia, asthma, or unintentional injury. Explain how the genetic and environmental factors specific to it.

Myopia: it is a refractory problem in which the vision of distant objects is difficult.

Myopia can be caused by genetic factors, since if one or both parents are nearsighted, there is a high probability of inheriting myopia. There are also environmental factors that are greatly considered to the development of myopia, when there is a great exposure to electronic devices and with little ambient light, developing few outdoor activities (especially during childhood). Recent studies have found that some of the changes in our society could also influence myopia, such as women with a higher educational level (will take more care of the parenting style and provide greater educational stimuli to the child), the popularization of fertility treatments and early schooling.
