Jean Piaget's Stages

I find that Piaget's stages are very interesting to learn about. I never thought of growing up as putting them into stages and now that I actually understand each stage I try to go back in time and remember what it was like. For the most part I can remember my way of thinking except for the first stage where it occurs during birth until 2 years of age. I think that if you were becoming a kindergarten or elementary school teacher those stages would become very effective. You would be able to know and understand what level of learning the students are at during that time of their life. You would be able to understand that for the most part students from kindergarten through elementary would understand most things if it was right in front of them. A more physical aspect of leaning. Piaget's stages would help many people not only for their teaching career but also for when they become a parent. They would be able to somewhat put themselves in their children's shoes and understand what has developed in their mind and how much they can comprehend.
