Stages of Language and cognitive

Development in L1

DEVELOPMENTAL SEQUENCES (acquisition order l1)

In nearly all cases, children's lg development follows a predictable sequence. However, there is a great deal of variation in the age which children reach a given achievement.

FIRST LANGUAGE ACQUISITION

Ways to characterize the developmental sequence

Ages and for receptive & expressive language acquisition (1998)

Caroline Bowen

Childs Lg does not deal with fixed stages of development but describes “leading activities” typical of certain age periods around which intellectual development is organized.

Lev Vygotsky

Roger Brown

The stages provide a framework within which to understand and predict the path that normal expressive language development usually takes, in terms of morphology and syntax

Shaffer (2002)Two stages that help in development of L1

Pre-linguistic Linguist

0 to 12 months Children emit non-

linguistic vocalization or motor that are related to their needs Hunger Pain plearure

By the end of the stage can produce meaningful words

12 to 60 month Can understand heard

and has meaning This stage has 6 other

stages Early one word One word Two word Three word Four word Complex utterances

Conclusion

Children require affection and

social interaction to develop their L1 successfully

No matter the age children will always

find a way to be

understood

The extent and quality of a lg

experience of a child depends on the family

Children can acquire their L1 by beign in a social contextand listening to people’s speech

Early lg development begins at sensorial stage

Everyone goes through these stages it is impossible to skip one

These stages go from birth to adulthood

The develop at different pace among individuals

develop it”
