Marie Clay’s highly successful Reading Recovery model of early reading instruction was influenced greatly by Lev Vygotsky’s Social Development Theory‚ and particularly his concept of the zone of proximal development (ZPD). So you can see that models are the “children” of theories. They can be thought of as practical expressions of a theory. Some people go as
