Summary
This chapter shows how very young children’s intentions in interaction are made visible in sequences of action through a very common sort of child-initiated exchange, one that is founded on their emerging joint attention capacities: object presentations. These exchanges, which consist at minimum of two turns – an initiating action by the child and a response by the adult – can be oriented to by adults and extended in ways that facilitate child learning.
