Lev Vygotski

     Hello classmates and teacher.

     Today I am going to tell you about one important person in psychology, Lev Vygotski. He was born in 1896, in Sovietic Republic. He studied medicine and law in Statal University of Moscow and returned  to his native village to teach psychology and literature. He was an active intellectual in his área  on the context of Russian Revolution and he participated in many teaching centers and community initiatives.
     In 1919 he got sick of tuberculosis and he suffered many relapses in the rest of his life.
He married in 1924 and had two children. Finally in 1939 he died after finish the ultimate chapter of his book “thought and speech”.

     Lev Vygotski worked in some topics. The center of his work is the human development. He did  research with childrens and he discovered that the main is cooperation and it needs to of development function well. A child can learns a lot more and improve his skill if is helped by an adult or other children.
     He also studied psychology of art, the importance of children`s game, etc.

     
     I like him because he studied very interesting topics for psychology and pedagogy and he made his work  from a new perspective influenced by marxism and psychoanalysis giving an important role to social interaction.

    Lev Vygotski worked ON some topics. The center of his work is (the) human development.

    He did research with children and he discovered that the main ISSUE is cooperation and AND THAT it needs to of development function well (NOT CLEAR)!.

    A child CAN LEARN a lot more and improve his skill if HE is helped by an adult or other children..."

    Modal verbs, such as CAN, SHOULD, WILL, WOULD, are followed by the base form of the verb (the verb with no conjugation: learn, go, think, etc.
