- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer

If you pour the same amount of juice into two different sized cups, the preschool age child cannot tell that it is the same amount in both cups
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
Preschool-age children typically struggle with the concept of conservation, which is the understanding that the amount of a substance remains the same even if its appearance or container changes. In this scenario, pouring the same amount of juice into two different-sized cups would result in the juice appearing higher in the smaller cup and lower in the larger cup. The child may perceive this difference in height as a difference in the amount of juice, leading them to believe that there is more juice in the taller cup. Therefore, the preschool-age child cannot tell that it is the same amount in both cups, making the answer true.Rate this question:
