The more things change...

So I was wondering the other day if Isabelle's rotational schema thing was still relevant. Things change over time, and play becomes more complex and sophisticated. Perhaps another model is needed?

I peeped through the window as Isabelle's class did some singing close to pick-up time. The teacher asked for the children to clap in a circle. Isabelle does so with great concentration, mouth open, brow furrowed as she follows the progress of her hands with keen eyes.

Then we popped into the library to pick up the Tintin book that Aidan had ordered. Isabelle is allowed to choose another book too. The title she chooses?

Round and round.

Yup....
