Children, Language And Reading
[ send me this paper ]
8 pages in length. Language exists within the external world as an artifact that is a collection of symbols in admissible combinations. It is also an embodiment in the brain of the symbols used and the principles that determine their combinations. The brain uses the same machinery to represent language that it uses to represent any other entity. Neuroscientists have come to understand the neural basis for the brain’s representations of external objects as well as their events and the relations of those events. This simultaneously gains insight into the brain’s representation of language and into the mechanisms that connect the two. By assimilating the findings of a particular research focus, one can readily associate the relationship between literature and vocabulary with regard to a child's reading aptitude. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
