Answer to Question 1

ANS: B, C, D, E
A teenager is able to think abstractly and can be led to think critically and solve problems. At this level of emotional development an adolescent can take responsibility for his or her own actions and is beginning to internalize a personal set of values. Therefore, guiding them, but being an open communicator, is appropriate per their development. Adolescence is a time of great questioning, and this should not be discouraged.

Answer to Question 2

ANS:
As fine and gross motor skills develop, the toddler enjoys practicing skills such as coloring, turning pages, stacking objects, pushing and pulling toys, molding Play-Doh, running, jumping, and climbing. Around age 3, the toddler may learn to ride a tricycle. The toddler can hold a pencil or a large crayon appropriately and make artwork that is more representative of the object he or she is trying to depict. The toddler does not play interactively with other children; therefore, board games are more appropriate for preschool- and school-age children. Watercolor pencils require fine motor coordination and are more appropriate for a preschool-age child.
