Caveat: A Case Study in the Efficient Allocation of Limited Intellectual Resources by a Third Grade Elementary EFL Student

In my low-level TQ cohort, including second and third grade elementary students, we were practicing a very low-level "interview" format, starting with "What is your name?" Beforehand, I had given them formulaic "frames" where they could fill in their answers, and had helped them fill them in.

Teacher: "What is your favorite color?"

David: "I like yellow."

Teacher: "Why do you like yellow."

David: "I like it because chickens are yellow."

… later…

Teacher: "What is yoru favorite animal?"

David: "I like chickens."

Teacher: "Why do you like chickens?"

David: "I like it because chickens are yellow."
