Ages 4–5
At ages 4–5, children are still learning to focus their attention, and it can easily shift to something new and interesting. Memory at this stage is mostly based on vivid and engaging experiences, and thinking develops through what the child sees and does in play. For speech to develop fully, these cognitive skills need to grow together in a balanced way. The assessment helps identify strengths and areas that need support and guides the selection of games and activities based on the child’s age-specific development.
Ages 5–6
At ages 5–6, a child’s attention becomes more stable, and they can focus on a task for longer periods. Memory also becomes more intentional — children start remembering not only exciting events but also information needed to complete tasks. Thinking becomes more logical and flexible, and children begin to compare, group, and explain their actions.
For speech to develop properly, these cognitive skills need to grow in a balanced and timely way. The assessment helps identify which skills are age-appropriate and which need support, and it guides the selection of effective games and activities based on the child’s individual needs.
Ages 6–7
At ages 6–7, attention becomes more stable and better controlled — children can work on tasks for longer and are less easily distracted. Memory also becomes more voluntary: a child can intentionally remember and recall information. Thinking develops further toward logic and cause-and-effect relationships — children begin to reason, explain, and make simple conclusions.
For speech and learning to develop successfully, cognitive skills need to match age expectations and support each other. The assessment helps determine the level of each skill and guides the selection of individualized exercises and activities to prepare the child for school.
Ages 7–8
At ages 7–8, attention becomes more stable and self-controlled — children can work on tasks for longer periods, follow instructions, and manage their actions more independently. Memory becomes more intentional, and children can use simple strategies to help them remember and recall information. Thinking becomes more logical and organized, and children are better able to analyze, compare, draw conclusions, and explain their reasoning.
For successful learning, cognitive skills need to be well developed and work together in a coordinated way. The assessment helps identify the level of each skill and shows which areas may need support for successful progress in school.
