I am studying children's communication and language development because I think the more that I learn about this topic, the better I can prepare myself for understanding my future children's ability to speak. The development of their speech and language may be a lot different than my own; so if I know more information about it, I will be able to understand their development better. For example, if I did not take this class, I would not know that the left hemisphere is critical for processing language (Watchel, 2016). I now know this, and that can help me solve why my future children may have trouble understanding me when I talk to them. Another example can be related directly to me. I had a very easy
Effective communication is purposeful and is influenced by the context in which it is used. Language is used to communicate for a variety of reasons including entertainment, reporting, demanding, instructing, inquiring, persuading, socialising and so on. These are often reffered to as the functions of language; the purpose behind the communication. For example, " Good morning Seth, time to get up. It looks like it will be a warm day today. What are we having for breakfast? Meanwhile he slowly sits up says "morning" . I used instruction, inquiry and socialising while getting my children up and ready for the day. Being able to use language for a range of purposes is important for a child's language development, equally important is the ability
The focus of my all my classes is to extend student knowledge! Sometimes, I might focus on various topics they may have little or no experience with. I try to expand students’ understanding of a topic by focusing on vocabulary study, listening to academic lectures, facilitating group discussions, and various other
Having a good role models presented to them in childhood will help them understand how to be effective communicators in their future lives and build positive relationships of their own. Building on good communication will strengthen your relationship with them resulting in better trust and confidence to participate in learning activities
Effective communication is important in developing positive relationships with children, young people and adults alike. It is the central key to establishing and maintaining such positive relationships. It means listening, questioning, understanding and responding to match each individual’s stage of development, their age, personal circumstances and their needs. It is important for the communication to be on the same level as the person you are speaking to so that neither person seems to have more power than the other. Good communication is not just about listening and speaking, it is also about watching and feeling. Excellent communication builds trust in relationships with all.
Poor communication, this may result in valuable information being overlooked or withheld that may be important to development of the child.
My understanding of child development will help assist me in my chosen profession because I will be able to help the parents and children that I will be working with. By being knowledgeable in child development I will be able to answer any questions that may arise from the parents. It will help me to do my job correctly and be able to bring out the best in the children I work with. It also gives me a chance to share my knowledge of child development with others. By knowing that each child goes through each stage of development at different times and knowing when a child may not be learning at the rate they are supposed to be, I may be able to catch a child that may have a learning disability because I know what signs to look for and when to notify the parents of any concerns. Also, by knowing what stage of development a child is in and what age, I will be able to implement the correct programs and activities for them that will challenge them.

These liturgical banquets were the occasion of a communion with the god and seem to have been one of the main forms of worship during this period.
In conclusion effective communication with children, young people and adults is fundamental to developing relationships. It should be remembered that whilst it is important for me to communicate effectively with others it is equally important for me to listen to others to further develop the relationships I have.
The United Methodist Church is among the most common denominations of Christianity in the United States. Its roots can be traced to missionaries sent to America from England for the Church of England, Charles and John Wesley ("Roots (1736–1816) - The United Methodist Church" Dec, 14). In many Cases, John Wesley was known to start the denomination of Methodism because of all his hard work and determination he put into perfecting his religion. In 1738 John Wesley felt his heart was “Strangely warmed” while at a prayer assembly just as he was beginning to loose hope for preaching. He began to preach from experience and with this led the movement for reform of his religion in England. He began to have followers, and in order to follow him, he

In my life, I have always felt that I was exceptional at communicating with others. I found it very easy to understand what people were trying to convey and express while also being able to share my thoughts with them in a clear and concise manner. This led to me having a lot of success in building relationships with people at work and in my social life; but what about with children? It never occurred to me that I would need to take a completely different approach with children and I had to learn those skills quickly when I was asked to step up as the head coach for my son’s youth football team. Although it was challenging, coaching youth football afforded me the opportunity to learn how to communicate with children more effectively.
Being able to communicate through speech and language, but more importantly understand and use communication effectively is critical in supporting and developing the behavioural, emotional and social needs of a child or young person.
For my informative speech, I wanted to pick a topic that I was familiar with but also wanted to know more about. I came to the conclusion to do my speech over child development. I thought it would be interesting because I am taking a class over child development and my future career is going to be early childhood education and elementary education. (Q.1.) The specific purpose of my speech was to teach my audience what child development is and the three components of child development. I think I did well teaching my audience child development because I clearly stated the three components, I established credibility, and made it relatable to my audience. Everyone has been through child development, if you have not been then you would still be an infant.
As the little girl closed her eyes, drifting off to sleep, her grandmother’s voice softly concluded the story, “And they all lived happily ever after. The end.” Similar to this little girl and her grandmother, people desire life to have happy endings in order to show that life truly does have value and pleasure. By witnessing others’ happy endings, people become inspired to achieve hope for their own lives’ purposes. While this is the case for many people, Ernest Hemingway rejected the ideas of hope, happiness, and meaning, instead embracing loneliness, despair, and death.
Good communication is a criterion that sets many students apart in terms of traits. This is useful when building any form of rapport between them and the lecture or tutor. A student that respectfully communicates has also come out as self-motivated and is more likely to get more help from the teacher since their problems are aired out effectively. Students that do not communicate can be misjudged and mistaken for lack of motivation and self-confidence. In addition, students who are good communicators are made, not born (Floyd, 2013).
