The Potter Becomes His Pot


Cognitive Development in Early Childhood Programs






Early Childhood Education Settings Matter

According to Taylor (2005), the world is a constant moving motion of experiences, we are surrounded by constant changes of sights, sounds, smells, feelings, and tastes (Pg. 2). In order to conceptualize and make sense of our world, we tend to categorize the things that make sense to us to later use them. In order to form and recreate the past knowledge in our brain, we focus on one experience, learn it, and process it to later apply it when necessary. As educators, we bring the knowledge and skills necessary to teach and conduct programs to help students succeed in school. We help find meaning in content learning to facilitate learning to all students and be able to incorporate it in the early childhood years. Cognitive development internal and external factors interact “We now know the environment and biological factors interact and the child has an active role to play in his/her development” (Taylor, Pg. 7).
