INTRODUCTION This field study was done on three children who are of different ages and in different stages of their lives. In this paper you will see where each child lands in Piaget’s stages of Cognitive Development during the tasks presented before them. Jean Piaget had four different stages of Cognitive Development; Sensorimotor, Preoperational, Concrete Operational, and Formal Operational. While giving the tasks to the children in this case study it was clear at which stage or stages each…

The four stages are: Birth – two years - sensorimotor stage, two years to seven years – preoperational stage, seven years to eleven years – concrete operational stage, and eleven years to fifteen years – formal operational stage. This paper will address a classroom designed to benefit the development of toddlers who are in the preoperational stage (Lefrancois, 2012). Children in the early preoperational stage are extremely egocentric; that is they are unable to think about things from any…

Jean Piaget created a theory of cognitive development, with stages relating to the age of a child for those ages. For children up to two years Piaget said they were in the Sensorimotor stage of development, where infants acquire knowledge through motor…

Two child development theorists, Jean Piaget and Lev Vygotsky, have developed theories based on learning and development together with speech and thought, they examined the basic changes that influence the process of learning through thinking and reasoning between situations that…

lifestyle. I think Norma Jean smoking symbolizes her frustration. She seems like she has a lot of questions to why things happened and why things are the way they are. The loss of her son, Randy, is one of the main things I think caused her confusion. Whenever mothers have a miscarriage or the baby dies after birth, it is recommended that the mothers seek therapy. The mothers need to grieve for the loss of their baby, which I do not think Norma Jean got to do. Norma Jean also seemed like she is…
