Scaffolding is the process of supporting children by giving detailed instructions at each step of the activity.
<u>EXPLANATION:</u>
The process of scaffolding aims to make the child a master of every activity that the child does.
Scaffolding requires an adult to instruct and support the child whenever a new activity is being done by the child. The adult provides support and instructions at each step of the activity but allows the child to do the activity.
This way, the child learns how to perform the task and by performing it over and over again masters it. At this time, the support of the adult must be withdrawn.
