Children look at flash cards to understand the concept of three apples. Is this an example of concrete or abstract learning?
Abstract
Well done! Abstract learning is the correct answer because children see three apples on a flash card, yet there is only one card. A concrete learning experience would offer three real or plastic apples for children to touch and see the number three physically represented.

A child helps an adult to bake a cake. Is this an example of concrete or abstract learning?
Concrete
Way to go! Concrete learning is the correct answer because children feel the ingredients, distinguish between liquids and solids and engage their senses. A similar game on a screen would not allow children to engage senses like smelling and tasting.

Children watch a video about different types of trees and leaves and then go for a walk to look for examples in their own neighborhood. Is this an example of concrete or abstract learning?
Concrete and Abstract
Both are correct! This activity includes both abstract and concrete learning and is a great example of how screen-time learning and real-world experiences can connect for deeper understanding. A video can provide background knowledge for children about what types of leaves exist in their environment and what physical properties they have. Going on a walk provides children with the opportunity to apply that learning in identifying the leaves they see while engaging all of the senses!.
