VYGOTSKY’S THEORY
Vygotsky Vygotsky believed that learning is based
on language and social interaction.
Parents, teachers, and peers promote learning
Learning takes place in, and is dependent, upon the social environment.
Vygotsky believed that rather than learning new things because you are developmentally ready, you become developmentally ready after you learn new things.
MONTESSORI
Montessori Maria Montessori believed that children
would learn naturally if placed in an environment containing the appropriate learning materials.

senses, language, and motor skills.

A teacher never interrupts a student who is engaged in a task.
