Learning Through Language in Early Childhood


Add your own review!

Overview

The child's changing language is examined in terms of its role in interpreting four key domains of experience: the world of things, the world of events, the world of semiosis (including the inner world of cognition) and the construal of cause and effect. It shows how new linguistic possibilities constitute developments in cognitive resources and prepare the child for later learning in school.
