Understanding Language

On Saturday March 1st at 2.4 years old Ajani made a single circle for the first time.It is amazing when you provide the tools for young children how thy will just learn. They do not like to be interrupted when they are  discovering. They discover that learning is fun and they want to do it over and over again. Connecting the wires in the brains is based on the experiences that you provide. Young children will teach themselves once you provide a stimulating  environment. On Saturday he took his circle to show his mother.
 He began to draw another big circle and he began to tell a story.
This is a monkey, this is eye, this his feet , he has big feet , this his ears. I asked what about his eyes. "He can't see" was his response. This is a butterfly and grass as he continues as he made little marks to represent the items.
This shows that he has an understanding of language  and he is able to draw ideas from his schema .
Before a child can read they must be able to understand spoken language.
