A closer look might provide insight into how this experience will
assist in Rachel's development:
Positive emotions
are created from the established lap reading routine that generates
an intimate closeness and feeling of security.
Interactive social
dialogues between Rachel and her mother build on prior knowledge
and provide immediate feedback as they discuss each animal as
the story progresses.
The language they
use to label, compare, explain, and classify creates a supportive
context for structuring the processes of thinking and concept
formation.
Each of the domains
of development—linguistic, cognitive, social, and emotional—is
affected during Rachel's experience, and all play an important
role in her development
