I started walking at approximately 1 year old
-
An example of the sensorimotor stage of Piaget's theory is when my parents would play peekaboo with me and I did not know that they were not actually gone. (lack of object permanence)
-
-
An example in my life that demonstrates the preoperational stage of Piaget's theory is when I would pretend that certain objects or toys were alive (animism)
-
I think that I was coddled as a child, and was not allowed to do my own thing. However, this does not match up with the research done on this developmental stage because I had a lot of initiative now as a child and as an adult.

-
An example in my life of the concrete operational stage of Piaget's theory is when I began to learn about adding and subtracting with physical blocks, and I could seethe process and think more logically.
-
I climbed a lot of trees and jumped on the trampoline. I was a very active child and I loved every minute of it!
-
Gross motor skills that I used included maneuvering arms and legs to climb trees. Fine motor skills that I used included using fingers to grip small things.
-
-
I entered puberty at 12 years old, which is relatively normal. I definitely felt different than the boys that were my age at the time.
-
I participated in colorguard in high school. It kept me very active and made me feel good about myself.
-
Gross motor skills that I used included moving my arms and legs for running and lifting colorguard equipment. Fine motor skills that I used included squeezing and gripping the equipment, and point my toes.
-
An example in my life of the formal operational stage of Piaget's theory is egocentrism. I would have a pimple in high school and think that everyone else was focused on it too.
-
I have no participated in much physical activity as an adult. I have bipolar depression and I can tell that a lack of exercise makes my depression more prominent. I should definitely exercise more.
-
-
I did not use many gross motor skills, but I did use more fine motor skills (ex: typing, holding a pencil, pointing and grabbing items)
-
An example in my life of the formal operational stage of Piaget's theory is when I began to question my existence and life's purpose. I also began dreaming of my future life and what I want to do to make that happen.
