Aaron, an 8-year old, wanted to join tennis classes. When his father drove past a local sports complex, Aaron asked his father if he could take tennis coaching from there. He also added that since the place is close to their house, it will not take too long for him to get there. Which of the following advances of the concrete operational stage is depicted in Aaron's understanding of the location of this local tennis club in relation to his house?

conservation
spatial reasoning
categorization

Spatial reasoning is a term that refers to the concept of aptitude to create and manipulate visual mental representations. It is related to the ability to visualize and to reason distances and buildings. As Aaron can discern what is far or near his home and can conclude that the sports complex where he wants to take tennis lessons is near the house where he lives, it is possible to see that Aaron has developed the ability to refer to spatial reasoning.
