Explanation
Answer: A - In order to teach her class how to draw conclusions, the teacher could show them a timeline of events and ask them how the events seem to relate to each other or to a specific event. By doing so, the students are forced to use critical thinking to relate events to each other and to fully understand why they happened. The timeline acts as a visual aid as well.
