Anticipation, repetition and learning
Summary
Readers of my previous article may have watched a tiny video clip of my newborn son responding to the rhyme “Incy Wincy Spider”. My work often focuses on children with profound and multiple learning disabilities who experience life through very complicated brains frequently thwarted by seizure activity. Being responded to and experiencing consistency within that response is essential to their development, without it they do not stand a chance. You may feel a pressure to constantly be creating new activities but when children are young, there are huge benefits to be reaped from doing the same thing yet again – you just have to survive your boredom as you do it. Imagine you are in a famous band and people only want to hear your greatest hits – choose something great and do it again and again!
