but the children in this state are hampered by egocentrism—an ability to see the world from others’ point of view. Young children can mentally represent and refer to objects and events with words or pictures and they can pretend. However they can’t conserve, logically reason, or simultaneously consider many characteristics of an object. On the other hand, a 9-year-old student is in Concrete operational stage, which is from 7 to 11 years old. During this time, children gain a better understanding…

physical aspects of object (e.g. size, length, density) remain the same even when other aspects of the object’s appearance have changed. Moreover, their thinking becomes more flexible in terms of understanding multiple layers of the same problem. Logic and objectivity also increase so that they are able to classify or group things in a logical way. (Cole, Cole, & Lightfoot, 1989) Conservation – a term that Piaget used for the understanding that some properties of the object remain the same…

and formal operations. Sensorimotor is the stage that a child goes through from birth up to the age of 2. The child learn coordination of senses with motor response, sensory curiosity about the world, language used for demands and cataloging, and object permanence developed.

Development is a major aspect of a person’s life. It would be hard to characterize a person as a human being if they have not developed and grown. Development and developmental psychology is studying a person’s origins of thinking, language, math skills, and studying how an individual matures with internal…

Children are interesting individuals. I came to this conclusion the week I was babysitting two of my younger cousins: one a jubilant nine year old and the other at the tender age of three. By the end of the week, I understood that a three year old has a significantly different thinking pattern than their older siblings.
