Relation between Theories and Activities from the practice.

Accommodation and Assimilation Piaget's theory

Assimilation in the process by which new environmental stimuli are placed into existing frameworks. The child is increasing the number of existing frameworks into which new experience can be placed. Accommodation in the process by which a child internalizes a stimulus which does not fit any of the frameworks which already are possessed. When a child is presented with a situation for which no reference exists, the child must create a completely new framework in which to place completely new material. Accommodation is a qualitative change in the existing frameworks into which new experiences are placed. Once the child has developed the new framework, the child can assimilate the new experience.

According to this, when I did my activity "Colors" in my class, students already know how to spell some colors, this help me to teach other colors that they did not know. They assimilated the new colors in their knowledge and learned more. Then, when they were going to describe what people were wearing, they accommodated the cloth and the colors to describe personal appearance; not in the correct order, buy they did it by themselves.

Activity from the book



This was an activity taken from the book to lean vocabulary about clothes, and latter about colors. The audio was taken from the CD book.
