While reading Polar Bear Polar Bear What do you hear? to a student, I paused at the picture of the flamingo and asked, "What color is the flamingo?"
Another student in the class yelled out, "I know! It's yellow." I held up the book and pointed to the flamingo and said, "The flamingo is pink." This student said, "Yes, but it's yellow inside." So I further questioned, "How do you know this?" She replied, "I eat it at home all the time. It's yellow inside." I clarified further, "A flamingo? You eat flamingo at home?" She explained, "Yes I eat it at home! Mango is my favorite fruit. It is yellow inside."
