Five-year-old Becky is playing with blocks, stacking them one on top of another until her
towers eventually tumble and then stacking them again. Which one of the following best
reflects Piaget’s view of how Becky is probably learning in this situation?
a. She is absorbing information about how the environment behaves (e.g., "objects fall")
without consciously thinking about it.
b. Because she is probably still in the sensorimotor stage, she will remember what she
learns about the blocks only while the blocks are still in front of her.
c. She is actively thinking about and interpreting the results of her actions.
d. Because she builds one tower after another, she is obviously reinforced by watching her
towers tumble down.
