6 Methods of Learning Much of what children learn comes from everyday experiences and play. According to Piaget, between the ages of one and three years, toddlers progress from the sensorimotor to the preoperational period. What can children learn by helping a parent sort laundry? 6

7 Methods of Learning There are four methods of learning that children use: incidental trial-and-error imitation directed Incidental learning Unplanned Learning. trial-and-error learning Learning that takes place when a child tries several solutions to find one that works. 7

8 Methods of Learning There are four methods of learning that children use: incidental trial-and-error imitation directed imitation Learning by watching and copying others directed learning Learning that results from being taught, often by parents, other caregivers, teachers, or older siblings. 8

9 Intellectual Activity Areas The seven areas of intellectual activity develop throughout life: attention memory perception reasoning imagination creativity curiosity creativity A mental ability that involves using the imagination to produce original ideas. 9

11 Section 12.2 Encouraging Learning from One to Three Children need to have certain skills before they are ready to read or learn basic math concepts. During this time, their language skills grow rapidly. Toys play an important developmental role. 11

12 Content Vocabulary Academic Vocabulary reading readiness math readiness articulation stuttering unstructured decipher 12

13 Readiness for Learning Children need to have acquired certain skills before they are ready to read or learn basic math concepts. There are many ways parents and caregivers can help guide a child s learning. 13

14 Readiness for Learning Parents and caregivers can encourage reading readiness and math readiness during play and everyday activities. reading readiness Learning the skills necessary for reading, including letter recognition and the understanding that letters of the alphabet combine to form words on a page. math readiness The level of knowledge of basic math concepts, such as number recognition, needed for learning math. 14

15 Language Abilities There are several parts of language that children have an inborn ability to decipher: sounds sentences words grammar Children may experience speech difficulties. decipher To interpret; to study something until it can be understood. 15

16 Play Activities and Toys Toys play an important role in the development of one-to three-year-olds: Toys encourage motor skills to develop. Toys can encourage social skills such as sharing and cooperating with others. How do you think some of your favorite childhood toys helped develop your motor skills? 16

17 Play Activities and Toys Parents and caregivers should know how to evaluate toys for young children. 17

18 Chapter Summary Section 12.1 Brain Development from One to Three Intelligence is determined by both heredity and environment. Children learn concepts and the words for those concepts in stages. Learning methods include incidental, trial-anderror, imitation, and directed learning. There are seven areas of intellectual activity. 18

19 Chapter Summary Section 11.2 Encouraging Learning from One to Three Children s learning can be guided by adults. Caregivers should encourage reading and math readiness during play and everyday activities. Toys should be safe, appealing, and appropriate to a child s age.
