Child Development and Pedagogy · Language Acquisition and Development
Sumit (age 3), his brother Malay (age 6), and their parents recently moved from Jharkhand to Mumbai. The family has never used English to communicate before. In an effort to acquire mastery over English more rapidly, they decide to converse only in English daily. However, they are exposed to a lot of colloquialisms and grammatically incorrect language inputs at home. Both children are now struggling with language tasks at school. What could be the primary developmental reason?
- 1The boys' parents have excessively high scholastic expectations which directly impedes their cognitive capacity.
- 2The school environment is structured inappropriately and is uniquely demanding for these boys.
- 3Both boys have an underlying inherent neurodevelopmental learning disability.
- 4Exposure to fractured and grammatically incorrect inputs hinders their ability to build a structured foundation for reading and writing accurately in the target language.✓
