CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Early representational thought emerges during the final part of the sensorimotor stage. Piaget believed that developing object permanence or object constancy, the understanding that objects continue to exist even when they cannot be seen, was an important element at this point of development.

Detailed explanation-2: -The sensorimotor stage is the first of the four stages of Piaget’s theory of cognitive development. It is marked by a child’s knowledge that the outside world exists separately from themselves. Once the child has fully realized this, they will move on to the next stage within Piaget’s stages of development.

Detailed explanation-3: -The main development during the sensorimotor stage is the understanding that objects exist and events occur in the world independently of one’s own actions (’the object concept’, or ‘object permanence’).

Detailed explanation-4: -Sensorimotor Stage They shake or throw things, put things in their mouth, and learn about the world through trial and error. The later stages include goal-oriented behavior that leads to a desired result. Between ages 7 and 9 months, infants begin to realize that an object exists even though they can no longer see it.
