PHYSICAL, EMOTIONAL,
SPIRITUAL, INTELLECT AND

WHAT IS GROWTH?
• The Encyclopedia Britannica defines “growth” as an increase in the size or the amount of an entity. The word growth is used for all those structural and physiological changes that take place within individual during the process of maturation. • For example, the increase in weight, height, and different organs
is called growth. It is a biological process and continues for birth to adulthood.• From the very beginning, a child needs food. When he eats food,
it becomes a part of his body. During this time new cells are produced which results in physical increase. This physical increase is called growth.
WHAT IS DEVELOPMENT?
• The Encyclopedia Britannica defined the word
‘development’ as the progressive change in size, shape,
and function during the life of an organism by which its
genetic potential (genotype) are translated into functioning
adult systems (phnotype).
• This means that development includes the increase not only
in the size but also in the function of an organ.
WHAT IS DEVELOPMENT?
• Thus ‘development’ is the name of all those psychological
changes that take place in the functions and activities of

begins to creep, then stand, and then starts walking. So, this
creeping, standing and walking are called development.

stoppages of growth, development is equally affected.

and activities of different organs. This shows that ‘growth’ is a
physiological change whereas development is a psychological
change.

• Intellectual development refers to the growth of children in such
a way that their brain becomes more and more capable of
analysing understanding and evaluating concepts to make sense
out of the world around them.
