What are the main characteristics of pupils' cognition?

Elementary school:

1, egocentrism: think that the world in others' eyes is the same as what he sees, and that the world is centered on him.

2. Irreversibility of thinking: At this stage, children's cognitive activities are relatively specific, and abstract thinking operations cannot be carried out.

3. Rigid thinking: At this stage, students have not yet acquired the concept of conservation of objects.

4. Decentralized characteristics of thinking: When paving the way, we tend to use a standard or dimension, such as: much longer, much denser and much larger.

Junior high school:

1, thinking has certain flexibility: logical thinking and grouping operations can be carried out from the representations obtained from specific things.

2. Reversibility of thinking: thinking begins to be decentralized, and it can handle the relationship between the part and the whole and make some interchangeable logical reasoning.
