HOW CHILDREN LEARN LANGUAGE

 

Children develop language through interaction and relationships.

Key Ideas:
• Babies start communicating from birth (crying, eye contact, gestures)
• Language develops through listening before speaking
• Children learn best when adults respond, talk, and listen to them

 

Practical tips

Discover simple and practical ways to support your child’s communication at home. Everyday activities like talking, reading, and playing can help build strong language skills.

• Lev Vygotsky: Children learn through social interaction
• Jean Piaget: Children learn through stages and exploration

 What this means for you:
Talking, playing, and spending time with your child helps their brain grow.

SPEAKING & LISTENING SKILLS

Explore the profound impact of meaningful interactions. Learn how attentive engagement can significantly enhance your child’s learning and social development.

Inclusive practices

Embrace culturally responsive approaches, especially for children from diverse linguistic backgrounds. Foster an environment where every child’s communication journey is valued and supported.

DEVELOPMENTAL MILESTONES
