When caregiver/child play is pretty much "what's this? A dog." all the time, it creates a pattern in play that takes time to change. The two year old I have here has a delay that was made worse by her mom (a teacher) trying to fix it with adult directed play.
Yes the constant questioning is a bit over the top and could be what is happening. Why oh why do teachers do this!
There was an article about quizzing...I will try and find it and post it in our little FB group.
