Question 5 of 10 A child is just learning to use words She would be in the __ stage. A. preoperational B. sensorimotor C. concrete operational D. formal operations

The correct answer is A. preoperational.<br /><br />In Jean Piaget's theory of cognitive development, the preoperational stage occurs approximately between the ages of 2 and 7 years. During this stage, children begin to engage in symbolic play and learn to manipulate symbols, but they do not yet understand concrete logic. This is the stage where children start using words and language to represent objects and ideas.
