Question

Schema- everything with wheels is a truck.

Scenario- child is presented with a bicycle.
If he is assimilates he might think?
If he is accommodates he might think?

Answer 1

If the child assimilates, he might think that the bicycle is a truck because it has wheels.

If the child accommodates, he might adjust his schema and realize that not everything with wheels is a truck. He may categorize the bicycle as a different type of vehicle or create a new schema for it.
