Description

Language Development Interview

Much of the knowledge we gain comes from our learning and personal experiences. For this assignment, you will spend time talking with an experienced preschool teacher or, if you are currently a preschool teacher, you can answer the questions yourself. Your assignment is to select five questions regarding the support of language acquisition and language developmental stages in the classroom. Please review these possible questions that could guide your interview or you can create your own questions.

For this project, choose one of the following methods of completion:

Option 1

  1. Identify five questions that you could ask someone with preschool experience about how they support language acquisition for the stages of development in the classroom. Document the interview. You can record the interview (with permission) or you can write your questions and answers.
  2. Analyze the provided answers using your knowledge gained, the textbook, and at least one other resource to substantiate or refute their answers. You can provide elaboration for or against their responses further strengthening your own understanding.
  3. Summarize and explain three ways you will meet the needs of children in this stage to support their language development using the provided answers and your knowledge.

Option 2

  1. Identify five questions that you may be asked in a future interview regarding how you will support language acquisition for the stages of development in your future professional role. Document the interview. You can record a mock interview or you can write your questions/answers.
  2. Analyze your own answers using your knowledge gained and information from the textbook and at least one other resource to substantiate your writing.
  3. Summarize and explain three ways you will meet the needs of children in a developmental stage of your choice to support their language development using your knowledge of language acquisition.

The interview can be submitted as a Microsoft Word document (which would be two to three pages in length). You will also submit a one- to two-page Microsoft Word document (in addition to the title page and reference page) with your developmental level selected and elaboration of three ways you can meet the needs of the children in this developmental stage. Please support your ideas with information from the textbook and at least one other outside resource. Your paper must be written in APA format as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center, and include at least one scholarly resources in addition to the course text.

Interview on how to support language acquisition for stages of development
Q1. At what stage is it important or necessary to speak verbally to a child?
Answer: Speaking to children should start from a very tender age, even when they cannot still
speak back. Effgen (2013) has revealed that children whose parents or caregivers speak to them
often develop faster in their cognition. As such, talking to a child and calling their names is very
important. That is why a child at age 8 months to 1 year cannot speak back but will look at a
person who calls their names. Speaking to children should then continue until 11 years and
above. Effgen (2013) has also revealed that when parents speak to their children more often, they
can have a strong language power than their counterparts who speak less with their parents.
Furthermore, children must be spoken to at all ages so that they devel...
