Today I did a read aloud of a book called "Tooth Trouble." It's about a walrus who's tusk hurts and he has to go to the dentist. Brad, who is mildly autistic, really likes elephants. So I asked Brad, "What other animal has tusks?" I pointed to the tusks, said the animal is grey, and pointed to a picture of an elephant. He finally said, "elephant!" The only problem with this question-answer was that for the rest of the day, every answer was "elephant!"
Mrs. Jones: "Where does the story take place?"
Brad: "Elephant!"
Mrs. Jones: "Why did the walrus go to the dentist?"
Brad: "Elephant!"
Mrs. Jones: "What did you have for lunch?"
Brad: "Elephant!"
