Enduring UnderstandingsUnit Six
• Preschoolers learn through play.

Enduring UnderstandingsUnit Six
• Preschoolers think differently than do adolescents and adults. Understanding how they think, and why, helps you respond appropriately to their intellectual needs.

Enduring UnderstandingsUnit Six
• Brain building activities for preschoolers need not be expensive, just interactive with a knowledgeable care- giver.
![Page 5: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Enduring UnderstandingsUnit Six
• Television must be used appropriately in order to avoid a negative effect on the intellectual development of preschoolers.

Preschoolers use different
thought processes.
“Daddy, your sideburns are nice and neat, but your backburn is getting long.”
![Page 7: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Jean Piaget, a Swiss psychologist studied the ways in which children of different ages think.
![Page 8: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Piaget called logical mental actions:
![Page 9: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The process of combining ideas in
order.
![Page 10: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
A preconceptual stage where
the child forms mental images that are often incomplete or
illogical.
Preconceptual Child – ages 2-4
IntuitiveChild – ages 4-7
![Page 11: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
A child in the intuitive substage tries to
solve problems by how they feel about
it, rather than through logic.
Preconceptual Child – ages 2-4
IntuitiveChild – ages 4-7
![Page 12: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Due to the obstacles of logically thinking during this stage, we
cannot expect preschoolers to think logically, but we can provide
experiences that help them explore the areas that lag behind.
![Page 13: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Obstacles to logical thinking:# 1- They are egocentric
Egocentrism is the term for the preschooler’s belief that
everyone thinks in the same way and has the same ideas
as he or she does.
![Page 14: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Obstacles to logical thinking:
# 2- Preschoolers only focus their attention on one part of the object or event.
![Page 18: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
“Do I Focus on Height or Width?”
• Preschool children know that the amount of liquid in the two equal-sized glasses is the same (A). When the liquid of one container is poured into a tall tube (B) or a wide bowl ( C) , preschool children incorrectly say the amount of liquid has changed.
C
Pg 269, figure 16-3

You will not convince a preschooler of this logic.
![Page 20: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Which set has more squares?
![Page 21: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Obstacles to logical thinking:# 3- Preschoolers focus
on single steps or events- not the order of changes.
![Page 22: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Preschoolers focus on single steps or events- not the order of changes
+ =
“How can we get blue again?” The preschooler will not say, “Remove the yellow.”
16-4
If a preschooler watches the stick fall, and you ask him or her To draw the three stages of the falling, he or she will not draw the stage in-between.
![Page 23: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Obstacles to logical thinking:# 4- Preschoolers
cannot retrace the steps to undo the task. (subtraction)
![Page 24: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Obstacles to logical thinking:# 5- Preschoolers link
illogical events, “Coffee brings Daddy home.”

Worksheet – Intellectual Development
![Page 26: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
- Symbolic play
- drawing
- Mental images
- language
While the obstacles may interfere with logic, the new abilities that preschoolers (preoperational
children) have opens many new doors to learning and
understanding.
![Page 27: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Because children makeup their own symbols, such as
pretending a leaf is a plate, pretend-play is a
mental step beyond imitation.
Symbolic play
![Page 28: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Mental Images
• Mental images are symbols of objects and past experiences stored in the mind. Such as memories and new ideas.
![Page 29: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Mental Images
![Page 30: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Preschoolers intend their drawings to be realistic.
They often draw first, and then decide what their
pictures represent.
![Page 31: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Spoken words are symbols used to represent something. Words are abstract. Language helps
the thinking process

Learning is exciting and stimulating.
![Page 33: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Preoperational children are working
on specific concepts.
Worksheet – “Concepts”
![Page 34: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Concept A: Physical qualities i.e. size, shape, color, and texture.
![Page 35: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Physical qualities
Their understanding is limited because they
don’t know which feature is most
important and they often don’t “see” the
whole.

• “What is rain?”
![Page 40: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Language Abilities Increase
Preschoolers are egocentric in their speech- they talk but not necessarily communicate.
This includes telling a story without the beginning, or using pronouns without the name or repeating words or monologues.
![Page 41: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
In the English language, children master (use properly in all positions of the word) sounds between ages 3 to 8
and in a predictable order.

Language Abilities Increase
• Use of grammar matures a great deal between 3 and 5.
– At 3, “Give doll the mommy.” = “Give Mommy the doll.”
![Page 44: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Language Abilities Increase
• Grammar rules are applied to the exceptions.
– At 3, “I waited and I eated.” This shows an awareness of grammar, and in time he or she will learn the exceptions.
![Page 45: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Language Abilities Increase
• Questions are difficult to form because the word order is switched.
– A 3 year old will use question words like, when and why, but will not switch the order.
• “When Mary will come?” instead of
• “When will Mary come?”
![Page 46: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Language Abilities Increase
• There is a tendency to use too many negatives.
– “I don’t never want no more spinach.”
![Page 47: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Language Abilities Increase
• 4 and 5 year olds speak in longer sentences by using clauses, conjunctions, and prepositions. (“I had fun because we played games.”)
• They can form questions correctly.– Instead of “What the dog is eating?” – “What is the dog eating?”
![Page 48: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Language Abilities Increase
• 4 and 5 year olds may form tag questions

![Page 49: Chapter 16 Children, the Early Years. Enduring Understandings Unit Six Preschoolers learn through play.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649f325503460f94c4db29/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Language Abilities Increase
• Older preschoolers have trouble using the correct pronouns and continue to apply grammar rules to every case.
– “Him and me went to town,” instead of “He and I went to town.”
– “May I go barefeeted?”
