Piaget's Rooms
Sensorimotor - The sensorimotor stage is described by Piaget as the stage in which children learn about the world around them through movements and sensations. this stage is the earliest of Piaget's stages and takes place in a child from 0-2. This room will be filled with toys which infants can play with to learn about the world around them. With these toys the young children will learn that objects stay and begin to think concretely.
Preoperational - This stage comes into effect from Toddlerhood to Kindergarten. Children in this stage will begin to use language with others and will begin playing with inanimate objects as if they are real. To help the child's growing imagination this room is stocked with toys for the children to play with. Many of these toys also help children develop language.
Concrete Operational - Children begin to use logic in this stage. They will begin to understand things that are not openly visible to see and can even begin doing simple arithmetic. This room will be filled with toys that teach children how to conserve items and how to begin doing math problems in real life.
Formal Operational - In the final stage of Piaget's stages of development children begin to think abstractly, they are able to think about the world around them. this stage comes into effect in middle school and continues the rest of our lives. With our final room in place Children will be able to be ready for the real world, they will see news of the world around them and will be encouraged to think about how to make it a better place.
