Language Development

A child creates first his child tongue, then his mother tongue, in interaction with that little coterie of people who constitute his meaning group.

Learners usually have some kind of communicative purpose, and their attention is centered on the content of what is being said or written and not the language form that is being used;

    IV. The teacher may participate in the activities, while also watching and listening in order to be able to give feedback.
