Solution:

Grammar is the set of rules concerned with the use of words in the context to construct meaningful sentences. There are different kinds of grammar teaching methods in fashion which makes learning a fruitful process.There are certain postulates on which the whole teaching-learning process is based and without which no teaching will be successful from the view of learning outcomes and behavioral changes. These assumptions are known as the basics of teaching.The maxims of teaching are also one of the basics of teaching. These are tracks on which the teaching should go on. Maxims are nothing but simple guidelines or principles which help the teachers to make decisions and act accordingly during the teaching process. Deductive to inductive teaching maxim: The deductive method is based on deduction. At first, the rules are given and then students are asked to apply these rules to solve more problems. It begins with general premises and through logical argument, comes to a specific conclusion.The inductive method is a method that makes grammar learning an effective and productive process by giving examples in sentences or paragraphs to help students to learn grammatical rules in a context and integrated manner.In the above-mentioned situation, Ms. Nisha is following the deductive to inductive teaching maxim as at first, she is explaining the grammar rules and then goes on to give examples of the types of sentences.Hence, it could be concluded that Ms. Nisha is following the deductive to inductive teaching maxim.??Additional Information Concrete to abstract: This is based on the principles of psychology. When a learner percepts anything or event in its real and physical form he connects to it easily. Then he can be driven towards more immaterial and intangible facts or events.Induction to deduction: Induction is a way of discovering knowledge and deduction is the result of such discoveries. Hence, a teacher always proceeds from induction/inductive to deduction/deductive in his teaching by always beginning with particular items.Analysis to synthesis: It is based on the principles of associative psychology. Whenever we come across a new theory, we try to analyze it and then assimilate it into one. For eg, In biology, we learn about cells and then tissues and organs later. In the end, we study about the whole body composed of different organs.
