Plans for April 26
• By the end of the period you should be able to
• Briefly explain who Piaget is
• Identify the ages and names of his first two stages
• Briefly explain the focus of each stage
• Explain what object permanence is how you know a child has attained it.
Read Cognitive Development
• The link is on my website
• Who is Piaget?
• What is he know for?
• After you read continue with the power point
Piaget Terms to know
• Schemes- Mental patterns that guide behavior/an organized cognitive list
• Assimilation- using old methods to deal with new situations
• Accommodation- changing methods to adjust to new situations
• Centration- focusing only on one aspect of a situation
• Reversibility- objects can be changed and then returned to the original state
Read the sensorimotor and preoperational stages
• Link is on my website- Piaget reading 2
• Write one sentence in packet to explain the sensorimotor stage and one to explain the preoperational stage
Copy Notes
• Sensorimotor and Preoperational stages
• You need to be able to name the stage, identify the age and briefly explain what goes on during the stage
Sensory Motor
• Characteristic
• a. learning is done through exploring with their senses
• - touch, taste, hear…
• - children who cannot use one of their senses compensate by highly developing another sense
• b. children begin to understand that objects are not part of themselves
• c. thinking is displayed in action
Developmental Achievements
• Object permanence
• a. understanding that things still exist even if they cannot see them
• b. usually occurs at 8 months
• c. you know they have obtained it if they look for things when you hide them
Object permanence
• Watch this video
• http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ue8y-JVhjS0&playnext=1&list=PL5B4A3359FFD3DE48
• Link for this video is on my website
Preoperational Stage
• Characteristics-
• a. Egocentric-can only think of things based on their experiences- cannot see another’s point of view
Example of egocentricism
• Watch this video
• http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OinqFgsIbh0
• Link is on my website
Pre-op continued
• b. Animism- inanimate objects
are capable of actions or lifelike qualities
• Ex- the sidewalk made me fall
• my stuffed animal is sad
apply what you know
• As a table, come up with 2 examples of animism and one example of artificialism
• - write them in on the side of your outline
Pre-op continued
• preoperational kids are not very good at thinking things out so they ask lots of questions.
• They have a tough time understanding what if
Developmental achievement• a. Language
• b. Use of symbols to represent things
• - understanding a picture of an apple represents a real apple and can represent the letter A
• c. readiness for operational thought
• operational thought means being able to do things mentally (without concrete objects)
Assignment for Wednesday
• Find a toy that would be appropriate for a kid in the sensorimotor stage-
• Find a picture of the toy
• Write down the name of the toy
• Explain how it is used
• Why would this be a good toy for a sensory motor kid?
Concrete Operations• Ages 7- adolescence (11)
• 1. Characteristics
• a. Use of simple logic
• b. Use of simple mental representations
• - they no longer need to use their fingers to do simple math or show how old they are
Developmental Achievements• a. Conservation-matter doesn’t
increase or decrease because of the change in form
• Conservation of Liquid- the amount of liquid doesn’t change if it changes form ( moves to a taller glass)
• Conservation of number- The amount doesn’t change if things get spaced out
Lack of Conservation of Liquid

Lack of conservation of number
• http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GLj0IZFLKvg&feature=autoplay&list=PL5B4A3359FFD3DE48&index=21&playnext=2
• a. Reversibility- math operations can be undone
• b. Class inclusion/Heirarchy-understanding the hierarchical nature of classifications ( red flowers and yellow flowers are all flowers)
• c. Seriation- arranging objects according to size
Formal Operations
• 1. Characteristics
• a. abstract thinking- what might happen?
• b.Concrete objects are not needed
• c.Everyone doesn’t achieve this
