Document Summary

Better at looking at the abstract and to go beyond what exists sensorimotor stage. Kid crawling in environment and sensing things// very physical phase. Piaget mostly focused on: (1) object permanence (2) object representation (3) intentionality. Tendency to focus on one thing at a time (this goes over into a little bit of middle childhood for piaget) Much better understanding of cause and effect. Can pay attention to number of pieces of a cookie and how big each slice is. Kids getting really good at combining things. Rigidity when it comes to what they have experiences. Focus on only things you have direct experience with. // biggest control process that gets better is. Note: not a stage theory, so all these improvements continue over time. As we go through these phases different things improve. Preschool video w/ pizza: trying to get kids to pay attention and recall. Kids start to know when they are paying attention.
