Summary: Reaching Milestones In Toddlerhood
Nekenya Newsome-McKinney Reaching milestones in toddlerhood is mentioned in your passage and you continued to point out that children are unique individuals. The method of development that you describe reminds me of Piaget’s theory that stages are competencies of the earlier stages that are integrated in to thinking (Newman, 2015). Toddlerhood is a time of dramatic expansion in verbal competence when remarkable achievements are made in a brief period. The Language milestones and language environment are realized when by achievements that are made in an exceptionally brief period (Newman, 2015). First two-word combinations are practiced; (2) then a predominance of nouns in the vocabulary followed by the addition of verbs,
adjectives, and prepositions; and (3) two-word utterances followed by longer strings of words organized by use of grammatical rules that include indicators of meaning, such as possession, plural, and past, present, and future (Owens, 2011) (Newman, 2015). Language is such a fundamental part of who we are, the early recognition of awareness of environments and beginning to verbalize is related.
