This document discusses how siblings can help each other learn English outside the classroom through sociocultural theory and the Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD). It examines the language learning experiences of children in one family, how they use language in different contexts, and how the ZPD applies to language learning within the family. The research methods used include nexus analysis, interviews, observations, and video recordings to analyze language learning among siblings in the home environment.
