Question 1
Classroom management research findings suggest that one of the most effective ways to
maximize the amount of time elementary school children spend on academic activities is
for the teacher to do which of the following?
(A) Plan for, teach, and enforce routines for transition times and classroom housekeeping
tasks
(B) Assign homework three times a week in the major subjects
(C) Assign individual reading on new topics before discussing the topic in class
(D) Introduce new material in a lecture followed immediately by a questioning session on
the material
CORRECT ANSWER
The correct answer is (A). Too much time is often spent supervising students in relation to
personal needs and everyday housekeeping tasks, and interruptions for this purpose are a
major source of discontinuity in academic activities. Teachers can minimize these problems
by preparing students to handle routine activities on their own. Choices (B), (C), and (D) are
not classroom management strategies.
Question 2
Which of the following kinds of instruction is frequently contrasted with discovery
learning?
(A) Simulation games
(B) Expository teaching
(C) Mastery learning
(D) Schema training
CORRECT ANSWER
1
, The correct answer is (B). Discovery learning allows students to explore material on their
own and arrive at conclusions. In expository teaching, students are presented with subject
matter organized by the teacher. Choices (A), (C), and (D) are not typically contrasted with
discovery learning.
Question 3
During a visit to a second-grade classroom, a student teacher observed a child spending
the time allotted for a worksheet either looking out the window or doodling on his paper.
When the student teacher asked the child if he needed help on the assignment, he said
no. When asked why he wasn't doing it, he pointed to another student and said, "She does
all her work fast and when she's done, she gets more work."
The boy's reaction suggests which of the following about his classroom?
(A) A routine has been established for students who are having trouble finishing an
assignment to ask the teacher for assistance
(B) A routine for rewarding students who finish work promptly is not in place
(C) Students must work alone on seatwork, without consulting other students
(D) Students who finish work before the whole class is finished must not interrupt the
students who are still working
CORRECT ANSWER
The correct answer is (B). Students are quick to learn classroom routines for work incentives
and penalties, as the student's remark implies. No routine has been established to reward
students who finish their work early. Choice (A) is incorrect because the boy is not having
difficulty completing his assignment. Choice (C) is incorrect because there is not enough
information in the question to determine if students may or may not collaborate on the
assignment. Choice (D) is incorrect because the boy has not completed the assignment.
Question 4
For developing the language abilities of kindergartners, which of the following would be
the most appropriate way to follow up the writing of a group essay?
(A) Prepare a list of the most difficult words for the children to learn to spell
