The acquisition of speech and language represent significant
achievements for all children. These aspects of child development
have received substantial attention in the research literature and
a considerable body of theoretical knowledge exists to chart
progress from infancy to maturity. Cross-cultural studies have
identified the common purposes served by the acquisition of oral
language by children, and the essential similarity in the sequence
through which speech develops irrespective of geography and
culture. What is less clear is precisely 'how' children learn to
say what they mean and 'how' teachers and parents can support and
enhance the development of meaningful speech in their children.
Until now, children's speech has been underused as a means of
promoting learning in the formal school setting. New requirements
within the National Curriculum are trying to address this gap, but
there remains a lack of clarity as to what this means for practice,
and how it relates to the broad base of curricular objectives. This
book brings together a body of work, from different countries; it
offers an improved understanding of how strategies for developing
speaking and listening may impact metacognitive awareness, and
raise standards of literacy and dialogic thinking for all children.
This book was previously published as a special issue of Early
Child Development and Care.
