Description

In this study, the process of developing peer relationships of a child with special needs was examined. A developmentally delayed 4-year-old girl was the subject of this case study research. Data were obtained through participant observations conducted for 18 months in a kindergarten. This study examined observational data, focusing on the body movement as a base of communication. The results show: (1) the child with special needs made a base of peer relationship with other children by imitating the same posture as others do or through mimicking each other reciprocally. (2) Spending time together in the same class, they communicated through their bodies. As a result, a relationship between them has become very intimate and consequently they communicate with all their hearts.
