During the elementary school years, children's work will take on a different dimension. Much of the work at this stage will focus on expanding the intellect due to the development of reasoning skills and imagination. Children will be testing the limits of concepts, going on mental expeditions and exploring the wonders of the universe. Physical demonstrations are the perfect aid to intellectual development and help children to use their imagination.

Adolesence

In adolescence, children are attracted to broad, ambitious stories that provide a context for certain ideas, which helps to jump-start their work. Children are attracted to different kinds of physical work, but also engage in deep intellectual discussions based on previous knowledge gained from multiple disciplines. They will try out various 'adult roles' and do the work in an adult way, but this will only last for a short time before they go on to try out different roles.

Infancy

You can't expect an elementary school-aged child to repeat an activity in exactly the same way repeatedly. They want to test the limits of concepts, so they will experiment and play with concepts and challenge the ideas presented to them.

Adolescence

By the time they reach adolescence, children have discovered why things happen, and they try to acquire skills that will help them contribute meaningfully to society. During adolescence, children have short attention spans and can only focus on a particular task for a few weeks before they want to try something else. Therefore, we must be able to teach them specific concepts or ideas in a variety of ways and across disciplines so that they can acquire the knowledge they need.

During this period they need to create a sense of who they are, have an understanding of themselves and know what they can become in the future. They ask questions like: who am I? What am I good at? What contribution can I make? After adolescence, their focus is oriented towards adult society and finding out how to contribute to it through the “calling” of his chosen role.
