In guise of Methodology, a questionnaire was administered to 357 primary school teachers of the Far North Region of Cameroon. Data collected are analysed through mixed and statistical methods, and hypotheses tasted by Chi two. Results have shown that proximity instructional material and the building of tasks facilitate the development of learners’ intelligence.
