Assignment 7

Vygotsky's theory says that children are learners. For me, my learning issue was drawing and writing my letters. I couldn't handle doing it wrong, so I always asked for help (guided participation). My mom always told me I could do it (motivation) and that I didn't need help, which always made me a little upset, but regardless I learned to do it on my own (ZPD). Eventually my reliance on her or my teacher for help was gone.

Sounds like you learned your letters. Good job! It's nice to not have to rely on people to help you even though sometimes you can't progress without it.
