A2 Summer Task

For my investigation I will study the changes in the spoken language of children, therefore I will start to gather information on Child Language Accusation.

My 5 links include;

1. http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/wiki/Revision:Child_Language_Acquisition_-_Speaking#Beginnings_of_language_development

On this source, I have discovered that there are different stages to child language and how they develop in each stage. It is interesting to see how the language develops and what spoken features children use. This source will help me to identify the functions of children's language, for example Instrumental Stage is the first stage where concrete bounds are mostly used.

2. http://linguistlist.org/ask-ling/lang-acq.cfm

This source gave me information about how children develop their language and how their language varies from older generations.

3. https://aggslanguage.wordpress.com/chomsky/

This is a blog that gives detail on specific child language theories. It talks about Chomsky, Crystal, Aitchison and Piaget. Also the source gives evidence to support and disprove this theory, which will be useful for me to use when investigating.

4. http://www.slideshare.net/danilavsky/vygotsky-and-language-development

This source explains about Vygotsky's theory of language; it explains to me about the theory, stating that 'words are signals.'

5. http://www.speech-language-therapy.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=34:ages&catid=11:admin&Itemid=117

This source gives different age gaps and comments on the words that this age will typically say.
