I think the answer is either B or C -- younger children like these rarely have that kind of attention span, nor should they necessarily spend that amount of time on computers.

Also ... if you have 10 children in a computer lab, but only 2 or 3 are at a computer at any one time, what are the other children doing??

OKAY THANKS FOR YOUR HELP

B AND C

To determine the correct statement, let's analyze the given schedule:

- 9:30-10:00: Young toddlers (3 children)
- 10:00-12:00: Older toddlers (4 children)
- 1:00-3:00: Preschoolers (10 children)

According to the schedule, the young toddlers have 30 minutes of computer time, the older toddlers have 2 hours (120 minutes), and the preschoolers have 2 hours (120 minutes) as well.

Now, let's evaluate each statement:

A. The young toddlers aren't spending enough time at the computers.
- This statement is not true since they are allocated 30 minutes, which is within the time range stated (30-45 minutes).

B. The young toddlers and older toddlers should be combined to allow more time on the computers.
- Combining the young and older toddlers would result in a total of 7 children, which is beyond the maximum allowed at the computers (2-3 children). Therefore, this statement is not true.

C. Both the toddlers and the preschoolers are spending too much time at the computers.
- Both the toddlers and the preschoolers have a maximum of 120 minutes of computer time, which is within the time range stated (30-45 minutes). Therefore, this statement is not true.

D. There are too many preschoolers to use the computers effectively.
- This statement could be true if the number of preschoolers exceeded the maximum limit of 2-3 children at the computers. However, according to the information given, there are 10 preschoolers, which is within the limit. Therefore, this statement is not true.

Based on the analysis, none of the provided statements are true for this schedule. It appears that the schedule is appropriate based on the given constraints.
