Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Physical development is the least affected by school life. Moral development occurs as they have experience with, and understand, rules and fairness in the school setting. Schools have a profound influence on the socialization of children, who bring to school what they have learned and experienced in the home. Success in school requires an integration of cognitive, receptive, and expressive (language) skills.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Using simple terms is essential but slang and street terms need to be clarified. Apply age-specific information across broad aspects of biological, social, and current attitudes.
