Answer to Question 1

C
The most appropriate strategy to use to teach a preschooler/school age child would be to encourage play with using a doll. The child is not developmentally ready to follow instructions on a videotape or participate in a group discussion. The child is only five, and so might not be able to read.

Answer to Question 2

C
Empathy is an emotional linkage between two or more people through which feelings are communicated. It involves trying to imagine what it must be like to be in another person's situation.
