Problem
To support infants in understanding reflections and cause-and-effect relationships using technology, through safe and engaging sensory experiences.
Learning Opportunity Description:
Exploration of Reflections:
A. Place the safe mirror panels at infant-level. Allow infants, like Beatrix, to freely interact with the mirrors by touching and observing their reflections.
B. Introduce colorful hand puppets and gloves, encouraging infants to wear them while engaging with their mirrored image to see how different textures and colors appear.
C. Cause-and-Effect with Technology:
a. Utilize a tablet with interactive apps that are designed for infants. These apps should have simple features like touching the screen to produce colors, sounds, or mirrored effects that simulate the idea of reflection and cause-and-effect.
b. Encourage infants to touch the screen and observe their actions creating immediate reactions on the screen, reinforcing the idea of agency and reflection.
D. Sensory and Sound Integration:
a. Introduce different textures alongside the mirrors and screen interactions. Allow infants to touch and feel various materials, comparing their real textures to how they look when reflected.
b. Play gentle sounds or reflective music through a speaker, reinforcing sensory connections and encouraging infants to explore rhythm through clapping or tapping (mirroring their initial actions with the mirror). Get the instant assignment help.
