Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. given.

The context indicates that directional arrows are associated with the letters and numbers to guide children in writing.

Therefore, the word that fits logically in the blank is "given," as it suggests that the directional arrows are provided or presented along with the letters and numbers.

So, the sentence would read: "Directional arrows, given with the letters and numbers, guide children in writing."
