  a. Children are apt to draw conclusions based on how things appear to be.
  b. Common expressions in language sometimes misrepresent the true nature of physical events.

  d. Children may perpetuate their misbeliefs by disregarding information that is inconsistent with those beliefs.

Answer to Question 1

b.

Answer to Question 2

Sandy should not be punished for failing to provide adequate supervision. Mr. Wadsworth unfairly required that she perform an adult-like task without giving her adequate support and scaffolding. Additionally, Sandy did not, in the eyes of her peers, necessarily have the authority to manage the classroom in Mr. Wadsworth's absence. By leaving Sandy in charge of the classroom, Mr. Wadsworth failed to identify a sufficient classroom management plan.
