ALength of the timetable
BPrice of school books

DSize of the classroom
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. Findings of child psychology
1. The paper states that at the primary stage the main consequence of inadequate preparation is that mathematics pedagogy rarely resonates with children's psychology.
2. Prices, timetable and room size are not linked to teacher preparation in the text.
3. At the upper primary stage the effect shows differently, as a failure to link formal mathematics with experience.
