Observing Harry
Vygotsky: (social cultural theory) believes social interaction is important he stresses that the development of children's learning is a social process he also believe that children's development follows patterns.
Holmes 1993: States parents are more relaxed and less punitive with their second child than with their first borns. Harry had an easier time than his sister he was able to sleep when he wanted as well as eat when he wanted. He was also very demanding in terms of not wanting to wear a jacket when being told to. He therefore was able to make some decisions from an early age. Although he was very demanding this was good as he was able to suggest he was comfortable in his clothes and didn't need the jacket in this …show more content…

Chess and Thomas 1984:21: States "Goodness of fit" describing the relationship between the child and environment. Harry's home and family affects the development and learning in many ways. From reading observing Harry it is clear that if Harry was the first child his parents would have felt under more pressure to make him conform to what they wanted him to do for example wearing his coat.
The em I foment they are providing is more relaxed and his behaviour according to chess and Thomas "fits" into the relaxed environment and attitudes his patens are putting forward.

Harry's relationship with his sister

Bowlby introduces the idea of the internal working model " idea that developing the child builds a set of models of the self and others "
Internal model is formed in the early stages of infancy eg if the baby finds his feelings of hunger and his behaviour of crying promotes a result he will use that certain behaviour to generate a response, they are called working models because they are subjected to change.
Harry's play partners
Harry gets taken to places where he has opportunities to play with older and younger children.
Bruce states that there are benefits with playing with older and younger children. Harry will be able to develop more complex skills that he can then share.
Harry repeats patterns in his play.
When Harry becomes old enough and mobile at home he often plays with house items as well as his own toys he repeats patterns in his play. These patterns according to Bruce 1997/ Arnold 1999 help them understand the way in which. As harry is learning these patterns he is generating what is called "schemas" which are linked to his behaviour.( Harry discovers properties of objects building up a mental picture of what properties are necessary in order to function/ he also challenges what has happened previously to see his parents reaction.
How Harry's play affects his development and learning
Gopnik at el states "naming turns out to be connected to understand different aspects of the world". So we see when adults and other children articulate what Harry is doing they are helping him understand his own actions by this we mean parent reinforce the behaviour so that the child knows the result he will get with the actions they
portray.
"Early words often appear at the same time when children are solving relevant problems" for example when Harry was 1 year 2 months he used the phrase "in there" with meaning 10 months later he also used these lines with meaning showing his involvement.
Looking Harry's play through theoretical perspectives
Piaget: Explains how children learn through a different set of stages. Each stage reflects differences in which children understand the world. The stages are the sensorymotor, preoperational, concrete operational and formal operational stage.
His theory is very influential however has been criticised due to the lack of attention it pays to cultural and social factors. He also suggests that children display patterns (schemas) of behavior that is generalizable.
Schemers are patterns of repeatable actions
(Schemas: Harry is using patterns to discover how the world is operating as practitioners being able to recognize Harrys schemas and the way he plays means that we can predict the objects and specific activities that he may be interesting in exploring next. We can also use Harry’s language to accompany what he finds interesting)
Linking this to Harry's behaviour Piaget would say he is constructing knowledge from first hand experiences according to Piaget Harry needs to discover how to achieve certain things himself realising his own mistakes.
2: Learning pass through stages of development
Sensory motor (from birth 2 years) Harry learns through his senses and movement
Pre operational (from 2-7 years) Harry begins to represent his earlier actions with symbols.
Concrete operational (7-11 years) Harry learns to gasp notions
Formal operational (11+) Harry can think and test his actions.
Piaget at this point would argue that harry leads his own learning
