Daily verbal interactionsReally make a meaningful difference in language development
The average three-year-old has heard 20 million words
Three year olds from very talkative, socially interactive families have heard 35 million words
Three year olds of uncommunicative families have heard less than 10 million wordsFrom Meaningful Differences in the Everyday Experience of Young American Children by Betty Hart, Ph.D., & Todd R. Risley, Ph.D.
Vocabulary sizeGreatly influenced by familial styles of talking and interacting with babies
The average child has about a 700 word vocabulary by the age of three
Children of very sociable families have a vocabulary of about 1,100 words
Children of uncommunicative, non-reactive families have only about a 500 word vocabulary
Beyond business talkThe more you talk, the higher the quality of the language
Quantity results in quality
All parents engage in business talk imparting necessary information such as get down from there, or dont do that. If you dont talk much, this terse business talk is the only language children are exposed to
Talk more thats when children are exposed to complex and rich communication
Richer language environmentMainly determined by the amount of talking parents are doing with baby
The interaction with adult caregivers is the most important part of babys worldThe amount of interaction makes the environment richer
You dont have to worry about how to talk to your babyJust talk a lot

Interaction is keyYoung children watch your languageThey see your eyes light upThey watch your mouthIts a dance
In addition to vocabulary, theyre learning the rewards of social interaction
Interaction is key (cont.)Babies dont learn very much from a distance. They learn very little from watching words on TV or listening to the radio, for example
Children are immersed in the family culture of communication (i.e., talking a lot or a little), and learn from it

Non-verbal component to languageBeyond vocabulary, children are learning how to be social beings by listening to talk
From listening, being talked to, and observing, children learn about:EmotionsThe social context that goes with wordsInteractions in the family and the larger world
Assigning meanings to wordsChildren who have world experience from interactions, creative play, or book reading are the ones who are best able to refine word definitionsExposure to an animal in a book or at the zoo gives them a greater understanding of the definition
Teaching children the sounds that animals make is not just a game; it is the process of refinement for a young child
Play is work for a child
Children love wordsSaying words is a pleasant feeling
Making new sounds is fun for little children
Children can often pronounce words that are difficult for us as adults
They like multi-syllable wordsTry teaching young children sophisticated words
What uncommunicative families should knowYou dont need to talk differently to your childYou just need to talk more!
You already know how tap into that upbeat feeling and chit-chat, play, comment, and even gossip with baby
Make those who were raised in uncommunicative families change their way of communicationEncourage them to interact in more play talk
Parents who are reluctant readersPerfect reading is not the point rather the interaction around the book is of paramount importance
Professionals must provide models for what interaction looks like and what were asking parents to do. Show parents:that if you have a 30-page book and a three-year-old child, the point is turning the pages together, the story, the interaction, the talking, being involved with the child, not getting through all 30 pagesthat wordless picture books help babies learn, toohow to tie books and book concepts to things that are important in their own family
Children should feel that reading is a valuable and fun thing to do with parents
Seven learning essentialsSeven kinds of behaviors that parents, teachers, older siblings, and anyone who loves and cares about children should adopt
These essentials have an effect on brain neurochemistry and increase intelligence, happiness, and a sense of well-being
Encourage exploration Babies should learn through their senses (touch, taste, sound, smell, and vision)As they get older, they should learn through talking and demonstratingChildren benefit from actively experiencing both familiar and new places and things
Seven learning essentials (cont.)Mentor in basic skillsMentoring is teaching with love, with the well-being of the learner central to your activitiesShowing the whats and whens, and the ins and outs of how things workMentoring activity: teach a child the difference between up and down and explain other opposites
Seven learning essentials (cont.)Celebrate new skillsDevelopmental advances for learning new skills, little and big, and for becoming a unique individualWhen you celebrate, you reinforce good behavior by linking positive feelings with your childs behavior
Seven learning essentials (cont.)Rehearse (ensayar) and extend skillsPractice timeHelp children get good at what theyve learned by practicing again and again, in the same and different ways, with new people and new things. Every behavior can be used in a more sophisticated way; its multipurpose.
Protect from inappropriate treatmentShield the child from inappropriate disapproval, teasing, neglect or punishment, from a kind of harshness thats not right for their ageDont get mad at a child for something they dont yet understand
Seven learning essentials (cont.)Provide rich language interactionsCommunicate richly and responsively with sounds, songs, gestures and wordsChildrens comprehension or understanding is much more advanced than their ability to say words
Seven learning essentials (cont.)Provide rich language interactionsRich language is really engaging the child, through:parentese: highly engaging speech that captures the childs attentionsilly talkmimickinggames with soundsInteraction with rich language helps children realize that the sounds coming from them cause a response in the world
Seven learning essentials (cont.)Guide and limit behaviorThis will keep the child safe and teach whats acceptable and whats notSocialization: learning the rules of being a cooperative, responsive, caring personThis can help language development by helping children know when certain words or tones or volumes are appropriate (or inappropriate)For example, appropriate volumes in a movie theater versus on a playground
Late talkersBy age three, most children are talking

Very often, late talkers havent had enough people talk to them in ways that can enhance their vocabulary

Books help develop oral languageReading is an excuse adults sometimes need in order to interact conversationally with children
Oral language development can come from:making up storiessinging songstelling nursery rhymesreading and looking at booksFor more information, see the Calif. Preschool Instructional Network's Concepts About Print
Books help develop oral language (cont.)Early concepts of print:how to turn the pagebooks are filled with fun and adventurebooks are colorful and prettybooks can be held and touched
Books are integrated with the tradition of oral languageFor more information, see the California Preschool Instructional Network's Concepts About Print
Communicating in languages other than EnglishThe slow-down periodA natural part of the bilingual learning processChildren slow down, become listeners and observers of language, then take off
As with other learned skills, you will see growth spurts for monolingual and bilingual children alike in language
Communicating in languages other than English (cont.)Parents should speak in the language they feel comfortable using
Parents are their childs primary language model. They should model:good language skillsusing whatever language the parent has good language skills in
Getting the word out to parentsDont confuse people with too much complexity
