Answer to #1

Answer: The five-year-old enters school not fully understanding the syntactic system, with limited abilities to understand and use passive voice, to imbed and conjoin, and to elaborate on noun and verb phrases. The ten-year-old has a much richer understanding of the syntactic system, and is able to use a variety of passive sentence structures, to understand and produce sentences with a variety of embedding and conjoining, and to elaborate noun and verb phrases. The five-year-old's vocabulary is still limited. The five-year-old often uses syntactic relationship to define words. The ten-year-old has a much deeper understanding of concepts, and is able to define words using the class of words. It is important to recognize all the growth that occurs during these school years. Our responsibility as teachers is to help students grow in their oral language as much as possible, so they will become efficient and effective communicators.
