Piaget's Stages of Development
Sensorimotor- birth to 2-3 years
8 to 12 months
Coordinates more than one thought pattern at a time to reach a goal, such as repeatedly
throwing an object on the floor; only objects in sight are considered permanent
Piaget's Stages of Development
Sensorimotor- birth to 2-3 years
12 to 18 months
Recognizes the permanence of objects, even if out of sight; can understand simple
commands
Piaget's Stages of Development
Sensorimotor- birth to 2-3 years
18 to 24 months
Begins to develop reasoning and can anticipate events
Piaget's Stages of Development
Pre-operational stage- 2⁄3-6/7 years
Beginning use of symbols, through increase language skills and pictures to represent
preschoolers world
2 stages: preconceptional (2-4yrs), Intuitive stage (4-7yrs)
,Piaget's Stages of Development
Concrete operational stage 6/7-11/12 years
Children learn to manipulate objects
Concept of Development
Infancy (0-2 years)
Physical
Rapid growth in first 2 years. Infants double birth weight in 5 months and triple by 1st
birthday. Motor skills develop rapidly, with milestones like rolling over, sitting up,

emotions more independently. They begin to understand social norms such as sharing
and taking turns. They also begin to develop empathy.
Concept of Development
Middle Childhood (6-12 years)
Physical
Growth continues at a steady pace. Children refine their motor skills and coordination.
