Answer: B. To make the teacher understand that Wind-Wolf is intelligent but has learned things in a different way.

Step-by-step explanation:

It implies that the father is pleading with the teacher to let them know that Wind-Wolf is brilliant even though he is a slow learner and that his learning style might be different from the norm. The father wants to be understood and given accommodations for his son's special learning requirements.
