Reynelda has trouble tracing a complex shape with a pencil when she is in kindergarten, but she can do it quite well by the time she is in second grade. Is this an instance of learning?
 
  a. Yes, because her behavior has changed
  b. No, because the circumstances are too dissimilar
  c. Maybe, but only if she is being reinforced for tracing accurately
  d. Maybe, although the change may be due to physiological maturation rather than experience

Question 2

Kristen has large scars on her neck from surgeries she has received to correct a problem with her esophagus. In the past she has been fed with a tube, but now she is learning to eat through her mouth. Her doctor wants her to snack throughout the day to increase her calorie intake. According to the guidelines set forth by IDEA, the most appropriate school response would be to:
 
  a. educate Kristen in a self-contained classroom so that she won't be subjected to other children staring at her scars and so that she can eat on a different schedule.
  b. ask Kristen's parents to hire someone to come in and oversee her meal and snack times.
  c. give Kristen frequent short breaks from classroom tasks so that she can eat her snacks.
  d. excuse Kristen from having to do homework in light of the fact that she is going through so much outside of school.
