Question

After teaching kindergarten for fifteen years, Ms. Donnellen will be teaching third grade next year. She knows she must rethink her approach to teaching, because kindergartners and third graders tend to think very differently. Ms. Donnellen is taking which approach to child development?

Answer 1

The answer is cognitive-developmental.

Step-by-step explanation:

This approach recognises that people develop cognitive processes over different stages in their lives. This includes the construction of memory, reasoning and language.

Cognitive-developmental theories imply that children learn in a different way according to their age, and the same applies for adolescents and adults.
