Abstract
Piaget's theory suggests that the development of intelligence is related to an ability to perform logical operations. For the child between 7 and 11 years of age, seriation and classification are operational forms of behavior originating in earlier actions. Since seriation and classification are important to the syntax and semantics of language) failure to develop fully operational seriation and classification abilities may result in certain deficits in the child's reading ability. If so, the science curriculum may be useful in facilitating the cognitive growth necessary to success in reading. Recommendations for adapting the science program for remediation conclude the study.
