Early Language Development In Children With Down Syndrome
[ send me this essay ]
45 pages in length. Language acquisition is a challenging feat for any child; the pathway to verbal communication is both frustrating and rewarding at the same time. When a learning disability is thrown into the mix, that challenge presents a greater test of methodologies and trends whereby the child is able to become skilled at what regular learners achieve. As such, contemporary schooling has been adapted to more readily teach language acquisition to the Down Syndrome child with programs that accelerate development and provide early intervention. In short, the objective is to afford slower learners the opportunity to attain maximum potential at an appropriate pace that does not drive them beyond their capabilities. Bibliography lists 47 sources.
