Analyzing Piaget's Theory

Piaget, a man of the high regard in the developmental word. He devoted his life to studying how children grow and develop. In what stages different habits and traits are expressed and what to call these stages. Piaget’s theory is that a child develops by learning through their environment, and once they meet the max of one stage they directly move to the next. To test these (however biased the test were) he came up with a series of experiments to show. I ran these test and here are my findings.
Before I ran the test with the children I played some games with them, strictly for research of course. I was at the park with Sophia and two other boys who I watching. Sophia is age three, my preoperational and the other boys we six and seven. Talking with all of the children at once showed me just how great Sophia’s language was. When I asked them all questions, Sophia formed sentences just as well as the six and seven-year-old boys.

At first, I thought this was really creative, I didn’t prompt her and neither did either of the boys. Then I look down and in her hand is a paper airplane she was playing with before I saw her. So the imaginative play is pretty on track for where …show more content…

I then transferred the liquid and as expected of her, she said hers had more liquid. With Dom, he actually said I had more liquid when they were the same. He spent more time than Sophia spent examining and if there was any slight difference in liquid, he got it. Then when I poured it into the other glass he said what a preoperational child would
