Answer to Question 1

The adult validates what the children are learning; asks divergent questions; conveys to children that what they are doing is worthwhile as learners, as critical thinkers, as scientists, as mathematicians.

Answer to Question 2

They form concepts as a result of their own experiences and their own thinking about those experiences.
