When observing a group of children at a daycare center, Emily made the following observations:Five year old children played in one location during independent play time. Three year old children moved between different activities, rather than staying in one location.By analyzing Emily’s observations, what could be a valid conclusion?
Answer
A
Five-year-old children have longer attention spans than three-year-old children.
B
Three year old children do not like being in daycare.
C
Five-year-old children are favored over three-year-old children at the daycare center.
D
Three-year-old children are favored over five-year-old children at the daycare center.
Explanation
The five-year-olds stayed in one location during independent play, while the three-year-olds moved between activities. This behavior could suggest that the five-year-olds have longer attention spans. The observations do not provide evidence about whether either age group likes daycare or is favored by the staff.
