* How much language the child knows is determined by the amount and quality of language s/he is exposed to. | Similarities: * The child’s environment and their interaction with others plays a large part in language development. * Developing grammar and is seen as a part of language development. | Similarities: * Both theories are based on what the child produces – words and sounds. * Both theories explain how language is developed from birth * Grammar is included in both definitions.
EDUC 302 Case Study 1 You have a student who is struggling with your synthetic approach to teaching phonics. Explain 3 alternative approaches to phonics instruction that you could use to help this student. Alternative #1: Linguistic Phonics Instruction, on page 231, is an approach that teaches unknown words by placing together sound-symbol patterns. For example, Dr. Seuss books use sound-symbol patterns and use the repetition of words that sound alike to teach new words. A good way to teach this to a child who is having problems with synthetic patterns, is to give them books, like Cat in the Hat by Dr. Seuss.

Although some children will develop normal speech and language skills without treatment by the time they enter school, it is important to identify those who will not. Many people falsely believe that speech-language treatment cannot and should not begin until a child begins to talk. Yet, research has shown that children know a great deal about their language even before the first word is said. For example, children can distinguish between their native language and a foreign language, use different nonverbal utterances to express different needs, and imitate different patterns of speech through
Various psychological theories on human development are based on the concept of “stage”. The key to stage theories is the understanding of stages as unique stages of development, with each stage personified by its own special behavioural and cognitive characteristics. According to child development and psychological research, all individuals progress through the same stages in a fixed chronological order. Foundation stage and key stage 1 Young children are still developing their language and communication skill they will have to be reminded of listening carefully when others are talking. When we are talking to young children we have to speak clearly slowly and not using big words as they won’t understand what we are saying.

The key points are to clearly post, refer to, and review learning objectives and language objectives. Multiple levels of English proficiency are set by standards that the students are monitored by model performance indicators. A student’s native language affects his or her language and academic outcomes by being surrounded by other students who are also ELL with the same English acquisition. Students may utilize their home language more in conversations when speaking to classmates who are from the same home language group (Willoughby, 2009). In speaking to other ELL students whose home language is different, ELL students, use English but due to the students’ limitations in their English proficiency, they expose each other to more broken English I will value the instructional power of a word wall by frequently utilizing, maintaining, and updating it.All too often, secondary educators miss important opportunities to build the literacy skills of all students.
Donald Bear, Marcia Invernizzi, Shane Templeton, and Francine Johnston (2008) explain that there are two purposes for word studies. First is to help students develop a general knowledge of English spellings. Second, word study increases their specific knowledge of the spelling and meanings of words. Word studies are developmental because teachers must differentiate instruction for different levels of word knowledge (Bear et. Al, 2008).
24. Children acquiring English as a first language have tendency to use the regular rules for irregular verbs/words. For instance they will use the past tense morpheme – ed like this: ‘putted’ instead of ‘put’ ’ for the past tense form. Which term is used to describe this tendency? Interlanguage 25.
There are three properties that seem to make language different from other cognitive functions. According to Willingham, (2007), humans seem to be primed to learn language without special instruction, but just by being exposed to it at a critical period in childhood. Language seems to be innate, meaning human seem to be predisposed to the learning of language. Language is special because only humans have the capability to learn the complex nuances of language. Language influences other cognitive processes.
