Behaviorism Theory SKINNER; bhvr reinforcement: associating words w meanings & positive outcomes
Innatist Theory CHOMSKY; children born with Universal Grammar aka Language Acquisition Device; automatically know how to combine nouns & verbs to make new sentences

SocioCultural Theory childs observe adults communicating 1st and then develop own skills; learn best through cooperative problem solving
Communicative Competence (definition) a learner's ability to use lang to communicate successfully
Communicative Competence (components) Grammatical knowledge of: Syntax Morphology Phonology Social Knowledge How/when to use lang. appropriately
Stages of 2nd Language Acquisition 1)Preprod- silent pd 2)Early prod- lim. compr; yes/no; 1-2 wd; 1000 3)Spch emerg.- more compr; sht phrs/simpl sent's; 3000 4)Interm flncy- Xclnt compr; min. grmmr errs; complete sent's; 6000 5)Adv flncy- convrst'n; complete & complx sent's

Monitor Hypothesis KRASHEN; device to monitor spkr's output; internal self-editing; K says can hinder acquisition process; better for when fluency established; not for ELD 1-3
Natural Order Hypothesis KRASHEN: acquisition of grmmr struc's follows natrl order: -present & past progressive, then plural conjugations, etc -possesives often last, as rules can be more complx

Context-Reduced Task Listen 2 lecture or reading txt w no other sources of help except lang. itself; ex: close reading; social convo over phone
Cognitively Demanding + Context-Reduced Most difficlt, esp for early L2 spkrs; ex: MCAS, math wd prob w/o manipulatives & visuals, retelling story w/o organizer & wd bank

Factors that Impact Oral Language Development Personality - Risk taker? Age - Earlier = better (Dis)ability - Spch/lang delas possible. Assess L1 to check.
Readers Theater
WIDA Speaking Rubric?
Automaticity Fast, effortless word recognition that comes with a great deal of reading practice. Necessary but not sufficient for fluency.
Prosody Expressiveness in reading; incl. timing, phrasing, intonation, & emphasis. Signals that readers are paying attentionto what they are reading AND can use brain to think abt txt while reading it.

Four Components in Reading Programs
Semantic Cues Meaning cues; Does it make sense? use bkgrnd knwldge & context; keywds/familiar wds; sent. b4 & after; reread and summarize chunks
Syntactic Cues Structure cues; order/struc; Does it sound right? Inflectional cues (-ed, etc); Pay attention to POS, ex: "warm regions" -> warm is adj, so regions prob noun
Reciprocal Teaching
Guided Reading Xvention to suppt sml grp w decoding/comprhnsion strat's; ex groups: same decoding skill, same rdng lvl, same comprhnsn skill, S's struggl w inferential thinking; typclly 20-30 mins 3x wk
