Have students study them early in the school year and periodically review them in various contexts throughout the year.d.

Answer:

c. Have students study them early in the school year and periodically review them in various contexts throughout the year.

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason why this is a good stratagie is because being able to reveiw contexts throughout the year will help you go over new topics relating to the main one, while learning more and more about it through a long period of time, plus the student won't feel pressured on the topic all the time.
