Stages of Cognitive Development Infancy (Birth - 2 years old) Infants have the ability to hear things from birth‚ they also can see objects in front of them. When an infant hears a loud noise they get startled and it catches their attention. When you place an object in front of an infant their eyes will follow it from side to side. Infants get entertained with toys that make noise and have movement. Early Childhood (2 - 6 years old) At this stage children begin to learn and understand words

COGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT IN INFANCY AND TODDLERHOOD The Sensorimotor Stage Piaget based the sensorimotor stage on his observations of his own children The Circular Reaction: a. Circular reactions are the means by which infants explore the environment and build schemes by trying to repeat chance events caused by their own motor activity. b. These reactions are first centered on the infant’s own body. Subsequently‚ they change to manipulating objects and then to producing novel effects in the environment

Do you ever wonder why a boat floats and a rock doesn’t? Well I do. A Boat floats because of buoyancy and it remains lighter than the amount of water it displaces. Buoyancy is an interesting topic. Buoyancy can happen in any fluid and air. The buoyant force applies not just to water but to any fluid...A fluid is a substance that is able to take the shape of a container in which it is placed.” The source of this information is http://blackbirdlibrary.pbworks.com/w/file/fetch/70171466/dFlaoting

A boat floats‚ because the fluid in which it is floating offsets the downward pull of gravity and pushes it up. The scientific name for this force‚ which allows even immense objects to float in liquid‚ is buoyant force‚ more commonly known as buoyancy. A solid object’s density determines whether or not the buoyant force of a liquid can lift it. The density of an object depends upon its weight and its size. Given two solid objects that are different sizes‚ but weigh the same‚ the smaller‚ more

Cognitive development starts from the age of infancy and continues through the period of adolescence and on to adulthood. The basic components of cognitive development are mental processes; memory‚ critical thinking/ problem solving‚ categorization‚ language‚ and creativity‚ all of which are formed in the youngest years of a child’s life (Wells‚ Encyclopedia of Children’s Health). Jean Piaget originated and based his work in Switzerland. He had a PhD in Zoology‚ which he used to develop a biologically
