Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parents, family members and professional educators will find the information in this book understandable and practical when there is concern about a child s language development. Let's Talk About Early Language Development gives parents an idea about what a typical child should understand and say at different ages, and it describes the different kinds of language delays in an easy to understand format. The authors give specific examples about what parents can do at home to help their child. The text provides an excellent overview of the five areas of language and clearly explains language and communication terms. The authors provide guidelines to help identify signs of atypical development. The question and answer format enables parents, family members, and professionals to go straight to areas of concern to them. There is specific attention on parent questions regarding children who are dual-language learners. The authors stress the importance of families maintaining the native language and describe how to tell the difference between what may or may not be language issues as children are learning English. Additionally, critical information for parents of children who are non-verbal is provided with a particular focus on activities that promote verbal language and help interpret non-verbal language.

Download or read book Let s Talk about Talking written by Laura Mize and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With step-by-step written instructions for tons of FUN and easy-to-implement activities, parents and professionals can be confident in their ability to successfully identify and then strengthen these 11 major skills that encompass all the important social, cognitive, receptive, and expressive milestones that verbal and communicative kids have mastered. These 11 skills are the "missing pieces" for our little friends who aren't talking yet. Do you have kids on your caseload (or in your own house!) who have plateaued and seem "stuck" at the same level with no real improvements week after week and month after month? In nearly every case, this can be traced back to a weakness in one or more of these core areas. Even the diagnoses late talking toddlers may eventually receive can be linked back to one of these 11 areas. We may miss it though, if we're not purposefully looking at early language development in this systematic, yet practical way.
Download or read book Child Language Development written by Sandra Bochner and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-04-30 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication is concerned with the early stages of language acquisition and is designed for use by early childhood teachers, nursery nurses, special education teachers and others working with children experiencing difficulties in learning to talk. Procedures are described that can be used to assess a child' s current skills and plan activities to increase communicative competence. The programme described is based on a developmental sequence that moves the early skills of joint attention, turn-taking and appropriate play to the more complex skills of asking and answering questions. Other issues discussed include sound development and intelligibility, the use of augmentative and alternative communication as stepping stones to speech, working with children and with families. The second edition has an expanded focus on the place of communicative intentions in early language development.
Download or read book Early Language Development written by John Harris and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-04-22 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Language is of central importance in children’s development and vital for their success at school and in the world beyond. Designed for the many professionals involved in encouraging language development, Early Language Development, originally published in 1990, will enable them to get to grips with the practical issues of helping children with language difficulties. John Harris provides an invaluable summary of recent research on language development and how it relates to the practical concerns of language assessment and language teaching. Readers are given a clear account of the ways in which research has expanded our understanding of just what language is and how this has led to different approaches to language assessment. Various theories of language development are summarised and discussed in terms of their implications for language teaching. Dr Harris also describes different ways of encouraging language development and explains how teachers and therapists can overcome the special problems faced by children with particular difficulties, such as visual impairment, hearing impairment, general learning difficulties, and environmental deprivation. With its emphasis on the relevance of research-based knowledge to practical concerns, the book provides a useful bridge between the world of research and practice. It will be of particular interest to teachers of young children, speech therapists, and child psychologists, as well as to students taking courses on child development, and to parents of young children.

Download or read book An Introduction to Child Language Development written by Susan H.Foster- Cohen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-17 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume introduces the field of child language development studies, and presents hypotheses in an accessible, largely non-technical language, aiming to demonstrate the relationship between these hypotheses and interpretations of data. It makes the assumption that having a theory of language development is as important as having reliable data about what children say and understand, and it advocates a combination of both `rationalist' and more 'empiricist' traditions. In fact, the author overtly argues that different traditions provide different pieces of the picture, and that taking any single approach is unlikely to lead to productive understanding. Susan Foster-Cohen explores a range of issues, including the nature of prelinguistic communication and its possible relationship to linguistic development; early stages of language development and how they can be viewed in the light of later developments; the nature and role of children's experience with the language(s) around them; variations in language development due to both pathological and non-pathological differences between children, and (in the latter case) between the languages they learn; later oral language development; and literacy. The approach is distinctly psycholinguistic and linguistic rather than sociolinguistic, although there is significant treatment of issues which intersect with more sociolinguistic concerns (e.g. literacy, language play, and bilingualism). There are exercises and discussion questions throughout, designed to reinforce the ideas being presented, as well as to offer the student the opportunity to think beyond the text to ideas at the cutting edge of research. The accessible presentation of key issues will appeal to the intended undergraduate readership, and will be of interest to those taking courses in language development, linguistics, developmental psychology, educational linguistics, and speech pathology. The book will also serve as a useful introduction to students wishing to pursue post-graduate courses which deal with child language development.

Download or read book Early Language Development in Full term and Premature infants written by Paula Menyuk and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2014-02-04 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Designed to provide practical information to those who are concerned with the development of young children, this book has three goals. First, the authors offer details about patterns of language development over the first three years of life. Although intensive studies have been carried out by examining from one to 20 children in the age range of zero to three years, there has been no longitudinal study of a sample as large as this--53 children--nor have as many measures of language development been obtained from the same children. Examining language development from a broad perspective in this size population allows us to see what generalizations can be made about patterns of language development. This volume's second goal is to examine the impact of such factors as biology, cognition, and communication input--and the interaction of these factors--which traditionally have been held to play an important role in the course of language development. The comparative influence of each--and the interaction of all three--were examined statistically using children's scores on standard language tests at age three. The volume's third goal is to provide information to beginning investigators, early childhood educators, and clinicians that can help them in their practice. This includes information about what appear to be good early predictors of language development at three years; language assessment procedures that can be used with children below age three, how these procedures can be used, what they tell us about the language development of young children; and what warning signs should probably be attended to, and which can most likely be ignored. In addition, suggestions are made about what patterns of communicative interaction during the different periods of development seem to be most successful in terms of language development outcomes at three years, and what overall indications the study offers regarding appropriate intervention.
