repeat them (Primary Circular Reactions of sensorimotor stage) What age?
4-8 months Ans- Secondary Circular Reactions (Sensorimotor stage): infants intentionally repeat actions
to evoke environmental effects. What age?
8-12 months Ans- Coordination of Reactions (sensorimotor stage): children repeat actions intentionally,
comprehend cause and effect and combine schemas (concepts). What age?
12-18 months Ans- Tertiary Circular Reactions (sensorimotor stage): children experiment with trial-and-
error. What age?
18-24 months Ans- Early Representational Thought (sensorimotor stage): children begin representing
things and events with symbols. A significant development is Object Permanence, i.e., realizing that
thing still exist when out of sight. What age?

appendix to a book
clarifying Ans- When focusing on comprehension, if students pay close attention to whether or not the
text is making sense to them, they are using the comprehension strategy know as
effective reading instruction Ans- using appropriate and ongoing screening, assessments, and progress
monitoring; providing intensive instruction; and obtaining early intervention when needed are directly
connected to
Strategic competence Ans- it is an aspect of mathematical proficiency, an ability to formulate and
conduct mathematical problems.
