LANGUAGE & PRAGMATICS
Language development is essential for all children. Children in the womb begin to hear sound at 18 weeks of pregnancy. Reading to your child at that moment starts the process of exposure to language. All children are different, but there are developmental milestones that serve as a road map.
Pragmatics is understanding the social aspects of spoken language. This includes conversational exchanges, non-verbal communication, facial expressions and appropriate interactions based on the situation and communication partner.
