Well, fundamental? I should be teaching your class. All humans learn by <b>repeatead</b> repetitition <b> spaced</b> over time. Repeat that twice a day over two weeks until you have it down. It will make you a great effective teacher.
There is a corollary to this fundamental principle: Not all children are the same, in some areas, some kids can master it in 7 repetitions spaced over time, and some slower will take 25 repetitions. The average will take about 16 repetitions spaced over several weeks.
Now for your answer choices, all are wrong for a fundamental principle,but in poor areas, D is a fundamental principle...we serve breakfast, and lunch to keep kids learning. My experience after physical needs, social interaction is very important. Check your text notes to see what the instructor wants to regurgitate. But the right fundamental principle is exactly what I laid out above. Keep that always in the back of your mind, then you will understand the "learning (forgetting) curve", and know how to teach.
