Out on the playground, three-year-old Dylan tells his caregiver, "Victoria hided from

me!" To help Dylan with his language development, what would be the MOST
effective reply?

Just ignore the 'hided' and say, "oh, really?"

Tell Dylan, "Hided is not a word. Hid is a word."

Say, "Oh, you mean she hid from you?"

Schedule a conference with his parents about speech therapy.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The MOST effective reply to help Dylan with his language development would be to say, "Oh, you mean she hid from you?" This response acknowledges Dylan's message and models the correct use of the past tense verb "hid." It also encourages further communication and reinforces correct grammar in a positive way
