'Schemas are repeated behaviours that babies and young children use to explore and understand the world.' (Nutbrown 1994).
Some children have one very clear schema; others have a number of schemas called a cluster. In knowing which schema a child is following we can begin to make sense of what children are doing?
10 Common Schemas
- Trajectory
- Rotation
- Connection
- Transporting
- Heaping and Scattering
- On Top
- Containment
- Envelopment
- Enclosure
- Going Through A Boundary
