Physical Development
Rates of growth generally slow during Middle Childhood. Typically, a child will gain about 5-7 pounds a year and grow about 2 inches per year. They also tend to slim down and gain muscle strength and lung capacity making it possible to engage in strenuous physical activity for long periods of time. The brain reaches its adult size at about age 7.

Module 2: Cognitive Development

Objectives: 1) Students will be able to define conservation, reversibility, and identity in concrete operational intelligence, and 2) Students will be able to explain information process theory of memory.

Module 4: Psychosocial Development

Objectives: 1) Students will be able to evaluate the impact of labeling on children's self-concept and social relationships, 2) Students will be able to examine social relationships in middle childhood, 3) Students will be able to compare the stages of moral development, and 4) Students will be able to analyze the impact of family structure on children's development and describe the developmental stages of stepfamilies.

Psychosocial Development
Self-Concept. Children in middle childhood have a more realistic sense of self than do those in early childhood. That exaggerated sense of self as “biggest” or “smartest” or “tallest” gives way to an understanding of one’s strengths and weaknesses.

Module 5: Learning and Intelligence

Objectives: 1) Students will be able to compare Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences and Sternberg's triarchic theory of intelligence, and 2) Students will be able to compare aptitude and achievements tests.

Learning and Intelligence
Children’s academic performance is often measured with the use of standardized tests. Achievement tests are used to measure what a child has already learned.

Module 6: Learning Approaches

Objective: Students will be able to explain learning approaches in middle childhood.

Learning Approaches
In contrast to the psychodynamic approaches of Freud and the neo-Freudians, which relate personality to inner (and hidden) processes, the learning approaches focus only on observable behavior. This illustrates one significant advantage of the learning approaches over psychodynamics: Because learning approaches involve observable, measurable phenomena, they can be scientifically tested.
