After months of singing "itsy bitsy spider" with her mother, baby Nicole is beginning to do some of the song's actions by herself. This is an example of scaffolding.

Scaffolding refers to a learning process that is tailored to stronger understanding and independence. When Nicole is sang to, she is able to get a great understanding of how to do it on her own and then eventually started to do all of that on her own. By learning this way, baby Nicole is getting a stronger understanding of how to develop further learning on her own.
