Positioning
Positioning
A child experiencing a positioning schema will be seen positioning, ordering and arranging objects or themselves in a specific way.
What it might look like:
- placing an object in an exact position (ie: on top of, next to, in front of, beside, behind)
- lining up objects in size, shape, or color order
- can sometimes extend to food-- not wanting food to be touching or mixed together
