Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
Preschool children center or notice only one characteristic of an object. This can limit their ability to learn all aspects of care or more than one method of doing something on any one day. This does not mean that the child will only learn the middle of the procedure. This does not mean that information will not be retained for longer than a week. This also does not mean that the child will need printed material to understand the teaching.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
Teaching an activity such as deep breathing by having the child imitate the action is an effective teaching method because it presents the activity as a game. Videotapes, demonstration, and discussion are not effective teaching strategies with this age group.
