Correct Answer - Option 1 : Slow learner

Children grow differently, their capacities are different and so is their attitude towards studies in a class. There are many children who can quickly grasp what is taught in the class, while there are few children who are slow learners and can face difficulties in accepting the work done in the class. A few of such reasons are discussed below:

  • Lack of sleep – It’s well known that not enough sleep is bad for us all, and especially for children. One study found that just one hour of sleep deprivation every night can lower youngsters’ IQs. Making sure that the child has sufficient sleep helps in overcoming the problem of low intelligence.
  • Poor diet – Children need the right nutrients for growth and brain development. 
  • Boredom – This can be a problem for children who are not being challenged enough by the work they are given in class
  • Work too difficult – Just as some children are set to work which they find too easy, others are given tasks beyond their current level which makes it difficult for them to cope up.
  • Learning difficulties – A good proportion of children have undiagnosed learning difficulties, like autism, ADHD, or dyslexia
  • Other issues – There may be problems at school such as bullying or social exclusion can also lead to children lagging behind at school.
  • Laziness – This is perhaps the most common reason why children fall behind but, thankfully, it’s also the easiest to tackle.
  • Slow Learners- Slow learners often find it difficult to cope up along with the rest of the class. They require extra efforts from the teachers and hence remedial classes should be arranged for such learners.

Hence, the correct answer is Option 1.
