2. "I eated it all up!"said Jimmy.
Mrs. Newman,his teacher,should
say:

of saying "I eated it all up!
say,"I ate it all up."

happened?"

say that. Try again."

#1. (B) explanatory talk

I am a little confused on the second question, (I know you should model the
correct word.)

"Please Help!"

Answer 1

Both of your answers are correct. :-)

Answer 2

I'd tell the child, "You ATE it all up? What did you eat up?" That would give the child the correct form of the verb for both past and present tense. But since that's not a choice...I'd go with your answers.
