THE BALANCE BOARD
We gave this tool to children without giving
them any explanation, and we observed
how they were using it
Alice: it turns around
Irene: it is for turning around
Teacher: is it an easy game?
Alice: it’s easy
Then we tried to step on it:
Francesco: you can turn on it, you
do with your feet up and down
Alice: you have to turn, first you
step on it but it doesn’t stay still
so I slip
Teacher: why do you open your
arms?
Alice: so that I don’t fall
Teacher: so what do you do on
this toy? Alice: you swing
