CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -However most children are not able to perform the conservation of number task correctly from ages 4–5, and most children develop the ability from ages 6–8. Conservation of mass and length occurs around age 7, conservation of weight around age 9, and conservation of volume around 11.

Detailed explanation-2: -7 to 11 Years Begin to understand the concept of conservation; that the amount of liquid in a short, wide cup is equal to that in a tall, skinny glass, for example. Thinking becomes more logical and organized, but still very concrete.

Detailed explanation-3: -For example, as soon as a child can reliably count they may be able to learn conservation of number. For many children, this is around age five. More complex conservation tasks, however, may not be mastered until closer to the end of the stage around age seven.

Detailed explanation-4: -The formal operational stage (12+ years) In this final stage of cognitive development, children learn more sophisticated rules of logic. They then use these rules to understand how abstract concepts work and to solve problems.

Detailed explanation-5: -The Concrete Operational Stage: 7 to 11 Years Their thinking becomes more logical and organized, but still very concrete. Children begin using inductive logic or reasoning from specific information to a general principle.
