The children in a kindergarten classroom often become so engaged in their
activities that the teacher has trouble getting them to stop what they are
doing
and begin transitioning to another activity. The teacher can best address this
problem by using which of the following approaches?
A. Organize each activity in ways that prompt children to begin at a high
level of energy and then shift gradually to lower energy levels
B. Establish a routine in which the teacher begins each day by discussing
with the class the planned schedule of activities for that day
C. Assign individual children, on a rotating basis, to help the teacher monitor
and direct transitions from one activity to the next
D. Establish an agreed-upon signal, such as clapping or ringing a bell, that
alerts children that it is time to pay attention - ANSWER-D. Establish an
,agreed-upon signal, such as clapping or ringing a bell, that alerts children
that it is time to pay attention

engrossed in what they are doing, they may find it difficult to disengage and
turn their attention elsewhere. Teachers can often overcome this problem by
getting children in the habit of responding automatically to a particular
stimulus, such as a bell ringing or clapping.
During the middle school years, young adolescents' need for an increasing
sense of autonomy can best be met by
A. designing activities and assignments to permit student choice among a
range of options.
B. using democratic processes to make decisions affecting the whole class
(e.g., where to go on a field trip).
C. routinely including blocks of unstructured time in students' daily
schedules.
D. assigning grades based primarily on students' self-evaluations of their
performance. - ANSWER-A. designing activities and assignments to permit
student choice among a range of options.
,Rationale: one effective way to promote
students' sense of autonomy is to provide activities that enable them to
make
choices about what they will learn or how their learning will occur. When
teachers
permit students to have choices among a range of learning options, the
students
gain a sense of control over their own lives and learning, which in turn can
promote
initiative, motivation and an increased sense of competence.

B. The rapid expansion of the Internet makes it difficult to obtain the very
latest information on a given topic
C. Different search engines use different formulas for matching websites to
search strings
, D. Much of the information on the Internet has not been reviewed and

accurate. Therefore, students who are using the Internet as a research tool
must be made aware of the importance of consulting sources that have been
reviewed by
experts to verify the accuracy of any information obtained.
