How might Piaget explain the following scenario?
In science class, elementary students observe bouncing balls and are able to come up with some generalizations about what makes a ball bounce well. They also learn what conditions make glue stick well to materials. However, they are unable to make a prediction about a particular set of materials and how well glue will stick.

Inductive reasoning develops before deductive reasoning.
The children are in the pre-operational stage of development.
Children at this age are more interested in things that move rapidly.
