Question

which statement primarily appeals to ethos to support the position that students should have more physical activity throughout the school day? we elementary school teachers know all too well how important recess is for young students who need to \shake the sillies out.\ some proponents of kinesthetic learning, which combines physical movement with education, say that students have shown improvements in both academic performance and confidence using this method. students have the benefit of youth and boundless energy, but they may become frustrated and disheartened by their inability to focus. the remedy is physical activity.

Explanation:

Ethos appeals to credibility or authority. The first statement uses elementary school teachers, who are trusted education professionals, to endorse more physical activity (recess) for students, leveraging their expertise and experience with young learners. The second statement uses proponents of kinesthetic learning (appealing to expert opinion but less direct authoritative credibility) and the third uses emotional/logical reasoning rather than authority.

Answer:

We elementary school teachers know all too well how important recess is for young students who need to "shake the sillies out."
