Piaget's Theory

1. Sensorimotor Stage

   • Birth - 2 years
     • Children learn about the world through basic actions such as sucking, grasping, looking and listening

2. Pre-Operational Stage

   • 2 - 7 years
     • Children at this stage tend to be egocentric and struggle to see things from the perspective of others

3. Concrete Operations

   • 7 - 11 years
     • During this stage, children begin to thinking logically about concrete events

4. Formal Operations

   • 12 and Up
     • Teens begin to think more about moral, philosophical, ethical, social, and political issues that require theoretical and abstract reasoning
