AGE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF REFLECTIVE THINKING IN CHILDREN AGED 5–6 YEARS
Main Article Content
Abstract
This article examines the development of reflective thinking in children aged 5–6 and its psychological–pedagogical foundations. At this age, children begin to form initial reflective skills such as analyzing information, understanding cause-and-effect relationships, recognizing mistakes, and justifying their thoughts. Drawing on the research of Piaget, Vygotsky, and Elkonin, the article highlights the characteristics of the preoperational stage and key factors influencing metacognitive development. It emphasizes that the formation of reflective thinking serves as an essential foundation for children's intellectual and social growth.
