  1. Child Development:Unit 5Toddler and Preschool Preschool Cognitive Development

  2. SORTING • Common household objects being put into categories according to similarities. • Examples • Blocks, buttons, silverware, colored items, laundry

  3. CLASSIFYING • Grouping nature objects into categories according to their similarities. • Examples: • Rocks, boys/girls, people characteristics, animals, things in nature

  4. SERIATION • Organizing objects according to increasing or decreasing qualities. • Example • Age, height, weight, length

  5. TRANSFORMATION • Changing an object’s state. • Example • Water into ice or ice into water, powder jello mix into jigglyjello and then adding hot water to the jello to turn it back into a liquid, growing older with age, a seed into a plant, dough into bread

  6. REVERSAL • Building or doing and then undoing it • Example • Zip and unzip, build a sand castle and wreck it, block tower and wreck it, tie and untie

  7. SEQUENCING • Step by step pattern of event put into correct order. • Example • Directions in cooking, a story, a snowman being built and then melting into water, following correct order to performing a task

The purposes can be: • a. correct pronunciation of the word b. correct grammar • c. adding a new word to their vocabulary d. correcting the meaning of the word or sentence • Restate the sentence in the appropriate way that reflects your purpose to the toddler. • 1. “I ranned to the barn.” • Purpose__________________________________________________________________________________ • Restated sentence__________________________________________________________________________ • 2. “I want to sleep on my soft piddah.” • Purpose__________________________________________________________________________________ • Restated sentence__________________________________________________________________________ • 3. “The apples is sweet.” • Purpose__________________________________________________________________________________ • Restated sentence__________________________________________________________________________ • 4. “See the chicken swim in the pond and say Quack-quack.” • Purpose__________________________________________________________________________________ • Restated sentence__________________________________________________________________________ • 5. “See my foots.” • Purpose__________________________________________________________________________________ • Restated sentence__________________________________________________________________________ • 6. “The kite goes.” • Purpose__________________________________________________________________________________ • Restated sentence__________________________________________________________________________ • 7. “I like woses in the garden” • Purpose__________________________________________________________________________________ • Restated sentence__________________________________________________________________________ • 8. “Look at the man playing the jello” • Purpose__________________________________________________________________________________ • Restated sentence__________________________________________________________________________ • 9. “Daddy has feathers on his chin.” • Purpose__________________________________________________________________________________ • Restated sentence__________________________________________________________________________ • 10. “Me want to go” • Purpose__________________________________________________________________________________ • Restated sentence__________________________________________________________________________
