  1. Preschool – Moral Development

  2. Kohlberg – Moral Development • __T__ 1. A preschooler is beginning to understand that it is important to base their behavior on their feelings and beliefs of right and wrong. This is the concept of Kohlberg’s theory of Moral Development.

  3. __T__ 2. Preschoolers are beginning to understand the reasons behind the rules and develop a conscience (inner sense of right and wrong), which guides their behavior and helps them make proper judgments.

  4. __F__ 3. Toddler’s learn the rules their parentsandcaregivers set, but they do not understand the reason behind the rules. • They do understand that some actions make a caregiver unhappy and others make a caregiver smile. • They choose to make a caregiver smile so they do not lose the approval of their caregiver.

  5. __F__ 4. The best way to teach moral behavior is to model it in everyday actions. Children are influenced by caregivers, peers, TV, movie, and other media. 5. Other ways a caregiver can teach moral behavior: • Set clear standards of behavior • Respond to and discuss inappropriate behavior • Continue to show love despite misbehavior

  8. 1. Cognitive Milestones Four-Year Old Five-Year Old Begins problem solving • Learns colors and shapes • Sorts and identifies differences between objects • Has an expanded vocabulary

  9. 2. Cognitive Development • Children ask many questions because they are curious and want to understand the world around them • Preschoolers learn by participation and involvement in everydayexperiences

  10. 3. Jean Piaget – Cognitive Development • Jean Piaget: • Preoperational stage (ages 2-7) • Preschoolers form attitudes about learning that can last a lifetime • Children learn from concrete (hands-on) evidence • Egocentric – they think in terms of their OWN activities and perceptions • Learn through make-believe play • Learn that objects and words can make a symbols

  11. 4. Reality VS Fantasy • A 4-year old cannot separate reality from fantasy. A developing 5- and 6- year old, who has a bigger imagination and engages in make-believe play, begins to understandthat there is a difference between reality and fantasy.

  12. Cognitive development terms

  13. 1. Sorting • Placing objects into smaller groups based on how they are alike and different • Examples  Sorting cats by color, sorting blocks by size or shape, etc…

  14. 2. Classifying • Putting objects into sets based on common traits. • Examples: •  cats and dogs, toy blocks and toy trucks, boys and girls.

  15. 3. Seriation • Putting objects in a particular order based on size, weight, etc… • Example • Lining crayons up in order from shortest to longest

  16. 4. 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

  17. 5. Transformation • Changing an object’s state. • Example  Popcorn kernel to popcorn  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  Aseed into a plant  Bread dough into bread

  18. 6. Conservation • Even though one property of an object changes, the other properties remain the same • Example • Liquid is the same amount even thou it is poured into different shaped glasses • Smashing a cookie dough ball or play dough – it is still the same even though it looks different
