Document Summary
Discussion 5 - sociocultural theory of cognitive development. Children during the ages two through six learn a wide variety of new skills. They develop new vocabulary, fine motor skills, complex motor skills, their curiosity increases, and many more. The task that i"(cid:373) goi(cid:374)g to (cid:271)e dis(cid:272)ussi(cid:374)g is t(cid:455)i(cid:374)g shoela(cid:272)es. I re(cid:373)e(cid:373)(cid:271)er lear(cid:374)i(cid:374)g this (cid:373)(cid:455)self whe(cid:374) i was growi(cid:374)g up and i also remember exactly how i taught my younger sisters how to perform this task. Due to these points, i felt that this would be the best task to use for this week"s dis(cid:272)ussio(cid:374) post. A child at this point will be able to recognize and understand that the lace on their shoe gets tied. They will know how to slide their shoe onto their foot, but get stuck when it comes to actually tying the lace. At this point, it turns to the mentor to teach the next step.
