Child’s development through “cognitive” domain.
A). The child likes drawing, perhaps interested due to a development in creative inteligence, which, “involves insights, synthesis, and the ability to react to new situations and stimuli.” Pg. 375

B). This child does not like being in one place at a time, high energy possibly due to attention deficit disorder.

C). This child likes to pick up books about airplanes, which may affect his ability to learn and develop more curiousity of this subject.

D). Because of this child’s interest in books about airplanes, it can be probable that he will develop the ability to solve problems through the fact that they, “add new words to their vocabulary, and their understanding of these new words often is acquired by listening to the context in which the words are used.” Pg. 380.
