Jean Piaget’s theory of cognitive development proposes that children move through four distinct, universal stages—sensorimotor, preoperational, concrete operational, and formal operational—driven by biological maturation and environmental interaction. Children act as active "little scientists," constructing understanding through schemas, assimilation, and accommodation.

Key Concepts in Piaget's Theory

* Schemas: Mental frameworks or templates used to organize information.

* Assimilation: Fitting new information into existing schemas.

* Accommodation:Altering existing schemas to fit new information

* Equilibration: The balance between assimilation and accommodation.

Piaget’s Four Stages of Cognitive Development-

Sensorimotor Stage (Birth–2 years):
Children learn about the world through senses and motor actions. A major achievement is object permanence, the understanding that objects continue to exist even when hidden.

Preoperational Stage (2–7 years):
Children develop symbolic thought, language, and imagination, but thinking is egocentric and lacks logical reasoning.

Concrete Operational Stage (7–11 years):
Logical, concrete reasoning develops. Children understand concepts like conservation (quantity remains the same despite shape changes) and categorization.

Formal Operational Stage (12+ years):
Adolescents develop the capacity for abstract thought, logical reasoning, and hypothetical thinking.

Piaget’s work highlighted that children think differently than adults, moving from basic reflexes to complex, abstract reasoning through these structured stages.

We are thrilled to announce our partnership with .ca. We have joined forces in a shared mission to provide more inclusive opportunity to children with exceptional needs. .ca offers a range of programs that are specifically designed for children who may find fitting into mainstream extracurriculars challenging or even impossible. Each of the programs embed the fundamentals of .ca, which are: learning and working with others, making friends, and keeping friends. The programs are run by experienced Special Education teachers, giving parents peace of mind knowing their child is having fun while getting the support they need, and bonus: the parent enjoys a well deserved break.

Programs begin this March and will be running out of Preschool Canada Aurora. For more information on programs or to register, please visit http://ow.ly/MMJZ50I1qwU.

We look forward to expanding .ca programs to Preschool Canada locations across the GTA.
