Introduction

Vygotskian theory asserts that children and adolescents active constructors of knowledge and their cognitive

development is naturally embedded in a cultural context. Culture provides both symbols and tools and these are

used as children and adults actively engage in daily interactions. Think about skills that you could help transmit

to a child or adolescent. Considering the zone of proximal development, identify three skills and present your

teaching strategies within the zone of proximal development. For the purposes of this thought paper, identify

three separate teachable skills and your role as a more skilled teacher using specific examples.
