Unit 9 Module 19 tests Flashcards

1
Q

Marcus is an 18-month-old boy who lives with his parents and his eight-year-old sister. The family is originally from Mexico but moved to the United States a few months ago. Marcus is a happy and smart little boy. He understands the majority of what is said to him. His family, however, is concerned about his speech. Mainly they’re concerned that Marcus does not talk yet and makes no attempts to imitate what others say. The family does use English regularly, but their native language is Spanish, and it’s their primary language most of the time when they’re at home or with their extended family. Marcus’s parents have started to worry that their little boy isn’t talking because he hears two different languages and is somewhat confused. The family is referred to a speech and language pathologist (SLP).
