Piaget stages

Question 1

Sensorimotor Stage

Answer 1

(0-2 years), children rely on their senses and motor skills to explore the world. They develop the concept of object permanence.

Question 2

Pre-operational stage

Answer 2

(2-7 years), children engage in symbolic play, using one object to represent others. They tend to be egocentric, and may display animism. They have difficulty understanding conservation.

Question 3

Concrete Operational Stage

Answer 3

(7-11 years) focuses on concrete thinking and morality. Children develop skills like seriation (sorting objects by size), conservation, decentration (considering multiple aspects), and reversibility (mentally undoing actions).

Question 4

Formal Operational Stage

Answer 4

(11 years and beyond), abstract thinking and a more complex understanding of morality emerge, allowing individuals to consider consequences in a broader sense.
