caffolding is closely linked to psychologist Lev Vygotsky’s Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD). The ZPD represents the range of tasks that a child cannot perform independently but can accomplish with the help of a more knowledgeable person, such as a teacher or caregiver. Scaffolding bridges the gap between what a child can do independently and what they can achieve with support. We as parents do this all the time! And so do our wonderful TCS teachers!
