conserve - (ANSWER)realizing that amounts are the same regardless of their appearance.
Between 2-6 years - (ANSWER)At what age are children in the Preoperational stage?
Piaget's Preoperational stage of cognitive development - (ANSWER)-symbolic representation especially
during pretend/make-believe play
-not yet capable of performing mental "operations".
-intuitive thinking (rather than following logical steps)
-Egocentric
Egocentrism - (ANSWER)Being unable to literally adopt another's point-of-view.
Assimilation - (ANSWER)When we can fit something new into an existing schema.
Accommodation - (ANSWER)When something new cannot be assimilated into an existing schema; either
modify the schema or form a new schema.
Assimilation and Accommodation - (ANSWER)What constitutes the process of adaptation?
It is how they learn about themselves and the world through interactions with their bodies and the
environment. - (ANSWER)Why do babies and children form schemas?
Conservation - (ANSWER)The cognitive ability to understand that objects or substances retain their
