Basic Principles of Language
Development

A
  1. Language is a social phenomenon.
  2. Children acquire language without direct instruction and within a short span of time.
  3. All language use symbol systems with socially constructed rules for combining sounds into words, for making meaning with words, and for arranging words into sentences.
  4. Just because language is so complex, children cannot learn the system all at once
  5. Language is linked to identity
  6. Language abilities grow by using language in meaningful contexts.

Q

How to Nurture Children’s Language Development

A
  1. Recognize the child as an individual. Avoid comparing the child’s language abilities with others.
  2. Talk to the child about different things. This will help the child begin to develop as awareness of how things work in this world.
  3. Encourage the child to talk with others – to share ideas, to ask questions. Ask questions that prompt the child to explore more deeply or to clarify thinking.
  4. Listen to them.
  5. Facilitate children’s search for relationships between ideas –similarities, opposites, cause, sequence, examples, a lot more. If the child can discover such examples in the real world, it will be easier for them to recognize those in the books and come up with written compositions.
  6. Model paraphrasing to children. Occasionally ask them if they can put across the same idea using different words.
  7. Involve the whole family in children’s vocabulary study. Find out what words the child is learning
