Answer to Question 1

ANS: B, C, E
The major tasks of the preschool child include preparation to enter school, development of a cooperative type of play, control of body functions, acceptance of separation, and increase in communication skills, memory, and attention span. Appetite remains inconsistent.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
The intuitive stage, as described by Piaget, is prelogical thinking that is based on the outside appearance of objects. A nickel is larger than a dime and therefore more valuable.
