The use of symbols can be clearly seen in the child’s use of language; for example, the child can now represent objects in the environment with the appropriate word and can refer to past and future events. The use of symbols is also apparent in children’s drawings, imitation, mental imagery, and symbolic play. For example, a…

Alice’s journey in the second book is to go from being a pawn to that of a Queen. In this story Alice goes through a mirror to a place referred to as the Looking-Glass World.

This book is based on a game of chess and has…

single goal but can be studied from any point of view. Structuralism doesn’t study the original purpose of creator but focus in the structure of the text or movie. Carpenter illustrates that “just because an author meant to communicate something in a book, poem, or film, does not ensure that she or he will have done so” (28), explaining that structuralists do not care at all about authors’ intentions since intentions are not certain, and we can get much more interpretation…

Integration can happen in a variety of different ways, and these different ways need to meet…
