1.sensori-motor stage(birth to 2years)-hear babies develop problem solving skills but they solve problems without the benefit of mental images e.g pulling a blanket towards them in order to reach a toy that is lying on the blanket 2.pre-operational stage(2 to 7years)-child expresses and explores learning by using symbols,the child does not yet understand e.g dog refers to different kinds of dogs because they can bark,have four legs and a tail 3.concrete operational stage(7 to 12 years)-the child's thinking is based on objects it is concrete 4.formal operational stage(adolescence)-adolescents develop the ability to carry formal operations,they learn to think in a logic way
Congratulations for your post.The staging/ naming and age limits are good. I am a bit worried about your explanations and examples. Consider object permance, egocentrism, conservation and abstract thinking. Where do they fit, what do they mean and what examples you can use to clarify that.
looking at Moiloa's post I'm confused how she got staging wright because what she had post are phrases. anyway I'm not sure whether I didn't get your question
Sensorimotor Stage; starts from birth to 2yrs. In this stage children develop a little competence in representing the environment by using images and language. development of object permanence and motor skills. eg searching a missing toy.
2 Pre operational stage: Starts from 2ys to 7ys development of language and egocentric thinking. eg sharing uninformative or incomplete story, thinking that who ever is being told the story shares the same perspective and knowledge with her/him.
3 Concrete operational: starts from 7yrs to 12yrs In this stage a child now loss or overcome egocentrism characteristics of the previous stage. she learns that some changes can be undone by reversing an earlier action. She now understand that when mama changes a star shaped dough into a heart shape, she can re-create the original star shape by reversing the action. A child can anticipate that even without having to see the action being performed before her.
Welcome - and well done.During sensorimotor your example of searching a missing toy does not fully explain the concept of object permanence. Children tend to lose interest in something that is out of sight, because to them any thing that is out of sight does not exist. During the preoperational stage egocentric , meaning they only view things from their own point of view. Remember the fourth stage.
1.sensorimotor stage;(birth-2yrs) in this stage, children develop new skills of representing environment by images, objects & language. that is they begin to refine their reflexes &combine them into action e.g. they may be closing & opening their hands then putting them in different places. it is in this stage whereby children are now aware & responsive to the environment around them.e.g. they can hold objects drop them often on the floor & pretend as if they are still holding them.
2.preoperational stage;(2-7yrs) this period is characterised by development language & egocentric thinking. in this stage children may not think / reason like an adult even though they are now able to answer some questions.e.g. a child can destroy a toy with the believe that he will see a person inside it.( meaning their thinking is tied to what he observes.)
3.concrete operational stage(7-12yrs) in this stage a child's thoughts are now logic and they overcome some of the egocentrism characters.
4.formal operational stage(12-adulthood); in this stage thinking is now formal, abstract & logic, it is no longer based(tied) on observable objects only, they can also use imaginary thinking to solve problems.
Good explanations. Please also take note of common examples that are used to indicate development at each stage. For example egocentric thinking is a good example, but you need to fully explain what it is? Consider object permanence, principal of conversation e.t.c

ReplyDeleteThank you. Please share your thoughts. Could it be : Stage 1- Sensorimotor stage? If this is what you meant.
