Typical Language Accomplishments
I thought it was important for you to know the typical Language Accomplishments for Children, Birth to Age 3.
Learning to read is built on a foundation of language skills that children start to learn at birth--a process that is both complicated and amazing. Most children develop certain
skills as they move through the early stages of learning language. By age 7, most children are reading.
The following list of accomplishments is based on current scientific research in the fields of reading, early childhood education, and child development. Studies continue in their
fields, and there is still much still to learn. As you look over the accomplishments, keep in mind that children vary a great deal in how they develop and learn.
If you have questions or concerns about your child's progress, talk with the child's doctor, teacher, or a speech and language therapist. For children with any kind of disability or
learning problem, the sooner they can get the special help they need, the easier it will be for them to learn.
From birth to age 3, most babies and toddlers become able to:
*Make sounds that imitate the tones and rhythms that adults use when talking.
*Respond to gestures and facial expressions.
*Begin to associate words they hear frequently with what the words mean.
*Make cooing, babbling
sounds in the crib, which gives way to enjoying rhyming and nonsense word games with a parent or caregiver.
*Play along in games such as "peek-a-boo" and "pat-a-cake."
*Handle objects such as board books and alphabet blocks in their play.
*Recognize certain books by their covers.
*Pretend to read books.
*Understand how books should be
handled.
*Share books with an adult as a routine part of life.
*Name some objects in a book.
*Talk about characters in books.
*Look at pictures in books and realize
they are symbols of real things.
*Listen to stories.
*Ask or demand that adults read or write with them.
*Begin to pay attention to specific print such as the first letters of their names.
*Scribble with a purpose (trying to write or draw something).
*Produce some letter-like forms and scribbles that resemble,in some way, writing.
