Noah, who is 6 years old, is playing in his garden at dusk when he sees a bat flying between the trees. He points at it and calls it a 'bird'. His mother corrects him, explaining that it is actually a bat, which is a mammal because it has fur and gives birth to live young. Noah is confused because he believed that any small creature that flies using wings is a bird.
Referring to Piaget’s theory of adaptation, explain how Noah’s schema of flying animals will change as a result of this experience.
