Unwanted Sounds Come from Your Mouth: Smart Vocabulary

unwanted sound

We know that comprehension is the ultimate goal of reading. The significance of vocabulary building must not be overestimated. Knowledge of synonymy, antonymy and metonymy improves all areas of communication — listening, speaking, reading and writing (LSRW).

Vocabulary is critical to a child’s success and good communication

  • Vocabulary growth is directly related to a child’s achievement.
  • The size of a child’s vocabulary in kindergarten predicts the ability to learn to read and write.
  • Vocabulary helps children to think and learn about the world.
  • Empowering a child’s knowledge of words provides wonderful access to new information.

A rigorous study on empowerment of vocabulary and language development conducted at the Graduate School of Education at Harvard revealed the ideas of quantity versus quality of speech used with infants and toddlers.

At an early age (between 12 and 24 months), the amount of language used by parents does matter a lot in their communication and personality development. Parents and other caregivers must speak to the child all the time and provide consistent word models in the form of a child’s speech.

Children need to hear words modeled/expressed many times before they will begin to use the words, so the more frequently they are exposed to words, the better the likelihood that they will gain that word in their vocabulary.

It is recommended that between 2-3 years caregivers begin to use different words, with greater variety to expand vocabulary skills in the child.
