• As We Examine the conclusion and technique that many have researched such
as Jean Piaget, his theories concludes a series of four stages of cognitive
development. Sensorimotor, preoperational, formal operational. These
theories help teachers to better identify and understand how children process.
• Aristotle (384-322 BC) His theory was he felt that children learn by
"Association". This is so true and I see this everyday children bring their
experience with them to class . They learn from the environment that is set up
and implemented by the teacher. Goals and objectives help map the way for
learning. Recognizing that all children have different learning needs and many
time those needs are meet based on the individual child's ability to learn. A
great teacher recognize difference in the same way different theorist explored
the best methods for teaching. Different strategies once we know and build a
relationship with the child it is then that we can aide a student's in reaching
his fullest potential.

is another factor, failing school districts. They are closing poor performing
school and removing teachers who students are unable to test out.

meet each child's needs. The importance to
actively prepare and engage the children you
teach each day. Good or bad, teachers are the
determining factor in a child's becoming his best
self.

theorist develop different strategies to better
understand young children. How they grow,
development and how the mind process

theorist have this in common we approach the
learning environment through researching the
child to get a better understanding how to meet
his educational needs.
