Teacher: What did you have for breakfast this morning, Juan? Student: I eated eggs and I drinked some milk. Teacher: You ate eggs and drank some milk? That's a very healthy breakfast. In the final line of the dialogue, the teacher demonstrates which of the following?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: In the dialogue, the teacher acknowledges Juan's breakfast while subtly correcting his grammatical errors without directly pointing them out. This method, known as recasting, involves restating a student's incorrect response in a grammatically correct form, allowing the student to hear the correct usage in context.

Option A, metalinguistic feedback, would involve the teacher explaining the rules of grammar, which is not present here. Option B, peer correction, implies that another student would correct Juan, which does not occur. Option C, self-correction, would require Juan to recognize and fix his own errors, which he does not do in this instance.
