Guest Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 I am being a bit lazy really as I am not sure where to find the information - I am looking for contemporary theorists who theorise the physical development of children 0-20 months - I can think of Piaget sensorimotor - but have drawn a blank on information. Help please? Nikki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marion Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Jerome Bruner "Movement plays a central role in children's development and learning. Observe almost any infant, in almost any setting, and you will see ample evidence of this: through movement children learn about their bodies, their physical and social environments: they try out different roles and rules; they test themselves. Indeed, it might be claimed that movement, action and play make up the 'culture of childhood' (Bruner,1983). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 Thanks Marion - I have to produce a poster on contemporary theorists on physical play - the tutor said to look at the medical/health theorists but no idea how to do this. Hopefully some others may come up with something. Nikki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmerSlattery Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Hi all, I want to use that Bruner (1983) quote included on this thread. I have searched 'Child's Talk: Learning to Use Language'; a book published by Bruner on this year and the quote is not there. I need to reference it; could you please let me know which book this quote came from. Kind regards, Emer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FSFRebecca Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 Hi, it's a very old thread .... I've had a quick look for you - I can find the quote cited again here https://books.google.co.uk/books/about/Learning_in_the_Early_Years.html?id=XKFmUf3j-04C&hl=en&output=html_text Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
