To be specific, JSS I students of UBE JSS Abaji, Naharati, Pandagi and Agyana with a population of 621, using quasi-experimental design. The bio-data of the respondents were analyzed with the use of frequency and percentages, while mean and standard deviation was used to answer the research questions. All the four null hypotheses were tested at 0.05% level of significance using t-test.
