Answer 3

You're welcome, Your Highness. :-)

Answer 4

Yes, you are correct. The answer is D. cognitive.

In this scenario, you are using the cognitive learning method. Cognitive learning focuses on the development of understanding, knowledge, and mental processes. In this case, you are explaining the concept of arranging blocks from largest to smallest to Brian, providing a demonstration, and offering encouragement as he attempts to do it himself. The use of encouragement and rewarding Brian with a star sticker further promotes his cognitive development by reinforcing his successful execution of the task.
