A wholistic evaluation of minority groups is necessary for their successful integration in to the education system, if traditional practices are to continue in society.

    1308 Words  | 6 Pages

    Four content descriptors were chosen to be taught and assessed, covering all three of the English strands (language, literature and literacy) from the Australian Curriculum (ACARA, 2017a). As a cohesive unit, the four descriptors have been purposefully integrated to create an aesthetic and engaging way for students to demonstrate their learning. The assessment task aligns with the requirements of the year two syllabus and specifically addresses the learning required in the year two achievement standard (QCAA, 2015). The Year two achievement standard in the syllabus outlines that, by the end of year two students should be able to use everyday language features and topic-specific vocabulary (QCAA. 2015).

  • Analyse The Factors That May Affect Children's Language Development

    There are many factors that can affect a child’s language and communication. Some of these factors can be positive; however, some can be negative. A cultural factor affecting emergent literacy could be children who have English as an additional language (EAL) this is because they know more of their native language than they do English and can be difficult to grasp another language at such a young age. Also some EAL children may have the knowledge of the English language and can speak the language however; their self-esteem, self-confidence and shyness could play a part in this and therefore may not be willing to use the English language. Also, EAL children may find it difficult to grasp the English alphabet.

While some Americans believe that only English should be taught in first grade there are others who believe that other languages should also be taught with English in the first grade. French or Spanish should be the languages taught with English in the first grade. “In 2001, 26% of the average adult in America is multilingual. 55% of the multilinguals speak Spanish, 17% speak French, 10% speak German, 3% speak Italian, 2% speak Chinese and 13% speak other languages” (McComb para. 18).

    2.0 INTRODUCTION Language development happens both inside the classroom (as part of a formal establishment, school or institute) and outside it. The classroom is generally considered a formal setting, and most other environments informal, with respect to language learning. “In environments where informal language development is adequate, it is possible to regard the formal classroom as supplemental, complementary, facilitating and consolidating”(Van Lier, 1988: 20). For second-language development in such environments the informal settings can be regarded as primary and the formal classroom as ancillary. The L2 lesson then becomes a language arts lesson, focusing on special language skills and cognitive/academic growth, much in the same way
