Answer:

A. scaffolding.

Step-by-step explanation:

Providing​ clues, reminders,​ encouragement, or examples to help children accomplish challenging tasks in instructional contexts is known as scaffolding. A scaffold supports the workers and materials while the building is being fixed. It works the same way for children. It is a way of supporting children when they are learning something challenging. This structure will be needed up to the time when the concept has been acquired.
