CLA 2 Guide to the Media Plan
The fourth “P” is for promotion, and deals with the process of integrated marketing communications. The questions become “what do you say, to whom do you say it, and how often do you say it?” Development of a media plan is how marketers organize their approach to these questions. Your text identifies eight steps in developing effective communications. For the purpose of the media plan you are going to develop for your chosen product / service, you need to specifically address effective communications.
Develop a media plan for your product / service that examines:
I. Identification of the Target Audience: Who are the potential buyers or consumers of your products / service? Who are the influencers? Use the segmentation variables we reviewed in class as a guide.
II. Design the Communications Message: Buyers pass through three consumer response stages cognitive, effective, and behavioral. What you say may be influenced by where the consumer is at any one time in these three stages. What is the communications message that you will use to promote your product?
III. The Media Communications Mix : Your media plan will look at fourof the major modes of communication (you may use others reviewed in class such as personal selling if it is a better fit to substitute for up to two of these modes):
a. Advertising: Are your advertising objectives to inform, persuade, reinforce, or remind? What advertising media mix is being used? Are you including media that your target market will see?
b. Sales promotion: What consumer promotions are being offered? Examples are samples, coupons, warranties, cross - promotions, point of purchase displays? Describe how you would present the offer?
c. Public relations and publicity: What types of public relations would you use? Would you offer a news release to newspapers or other media about your product / service? If yes what would be the subject. You may offer other types of public relations activities such as those listed in the text.
d. Direct Marketing: Will you offer direct marketing efforts? For example, direct mail, telephone calls, emails, mail order catalogs, or kiosk marketing? Would you use direct marketing through the website or internet?
You may use another mode of marketing communication such as those described in the text and class such as internet marketing, personnel selling, trade shows, outdoor billboards, please confirm your choice with me if you are selecting something not listed in a-d.
Promotion Budget: You need to develop a promotion mix budget for the communication plan only (not for business operations or product development) to give an approximation of cost you will spend on each promotion component. Let us know how you obtained the total budget funds, that is available to spend on promotion activities that you would use in your promotion plan. Give the estimated expense of each activity and the percentage of the total budget. Arrange in an excel sprea ...

Home Life and Family
Amanda is a girl, she was born in Nigeria. She is the firstborn in the family. She has no siblings. Her family was very excited when she was born. Since the day she was born, the parents have become child-centric and don’t want to be away from the child for long. The support network is strong. The parents understand the biology of bonding. The bonding between mother and child develops due to the production of the hormone oxytocin. During pregnancy, the level of oxytocin rises. When the mother and the child touch, the level of oxytocin rises which makes the mothers want to be close with the child almost all of the time. ( Craig, 2021).
Amanda lives with her two parents but most of the time she spends with her mother when the father is at work. The father doesn’t get much time with the child because most of the time he finds her asleep. The father's involvement in the first stages of the child is increased. The father would take off from work just to spend time with the child. In the first stages of child development, fatherhood and motherhood are as deep. The more the father spends time with the baby, the more the and becomes strong. There are times when the mother goes to work and the father is left to take care of the baby. The mother usually takes primary care of the child. When Amanda cries, the mother is the first to take her. The mother is more vigilant in taking care of the baby than the father. ( Nabuzoka, & Empson, 2009).
Amanda is very noisy and likes to scream. To distract her, the caregiver has to use something noisy. The curiosity of Amanda is stimulated by the parents to enhance the coordination of the hands and the eyes. From a period of 6 weeks to three months, Amanda starts making vowel sounds and becomes more social, and will enjoy seeing faces and smiles when touched. The type of parenting for this period is attachment parenting. Amanda is the dearest of the parents. The parents of the child become child-centric and they both want to spend some time with the baby. The support network of the baby is very strong. The father's involvement at the early stages of the child's development is being increased. The father is connecting with the baby through touch. Most of the time off work will be spent with the baby. The hygiene of the infant is more emphasized by the person taking care of the baby. The baby will be cleaned regularly. Sickness hygiene of the baby will be observed where the mother will be careful to keep the environment around the baby clean from any germs that may cause sickness.
During this stage, Amanda learns to bond and trust her primary caregiver who is her mother, she seems to have mastered the sound of her mother, every time her mother talks she loos in the direction. There are times when she is crying and she hears her mother talk she pauses her cry. This is unlike ...

Week 1
Hi my name is Gloria, I am sixty three years old, and I plan to graduate in October of 2016 with a Bachelor degree in Organization Manager. I have taken my entire course for my degree I am working on my elective course so I decided to take a minor in child hood development. I thought that it would be a good course since I have work with children all my life, raising ten children and only three from nature birth. I now work with Garland independent school district and come in contact with children every day. I community with people through knowledge, everyone come to me for advice, I listen to everyone problem and try to give the best advice possible and if I don’t have the answer we try to investigate and come up with the right one. I love helping people in any way that I could, planning on retiring from my job that I have been on for seventeen years with the school. After I retire if I have to go back to work I am leaning toward benign school counselor or an adviser working with children. That is if God allow me to do it.
Week 1 pt. 2
In the early childhood classroom, silence is not golden. Spoken words are opportunities for learning that should take place throughout the day - especially during conversations between children and between teachers and children.
Human language is a remarkable way to communicate. No other form of communication in the natural world transfers so much information in such a short period of time. It is even more remarkable that in three short years a child can hear, mimic, explore, practice, and finally, learn language.
Language learningthere is no genetic code that leads a child to speak English or Spanish or Japanese. Language is learned. We are born with the capacity to make 40 sounds and our genetics allows our brain to make associations between sounds and objects, actions, or ideas. The combination of these capabilities allows the creation of language. Sounds come to have meaning. The babbling sound "ma - ma - ma" of the infant becomes mama, and then mother. In the first years of life children listen, practice, and learn. The amusing sounds of a young toddler practicing language (in seemingly meaningless chatter) are really their modeling of the rhythm, tone, volume, and non-verbal expressions they see in us.
Language -with all of its magnificent complexity- is one of the greatest gifts we give our children. Yet, we so often treat our verbal communication with children in a casual way. It is a misconception that children learn language passively. Language acquisition is a product of active, repetitive, and complex learning. The child's brain is learning and changing more during language acquisition in the first six years of life than during any other cognitive ability he is working to acquire. How much easier this learning process can be for children when adults are active participants!
Adult’s help children learn language primarily by talking with them. It happen when a mother coos and ba.
How to establish healthy parents teacher relationshipAvinash Fofalia
Children spend the majority of their day with either teachers or parents. Studies have shown that children whose parents-teacher relationship is healthy, perform well academically. Successful education of the child in all spheres needs a solid partnership between the parent and the teacher. Teachers benefit from having an inside view of the child’s psyche. On the other hand, parents are better equipped to academically support their children at home. It is an ideal, win-win situation for everyone involved.

Learning Activity #1Joe Jackson owned a sawmill in Stuttgart, Arka.docxVinaOconner450
Learning Activity #1
Joe Jackson owned a sawmill in Stuttgart, Arkansas. It was a family business that had not changed in 50 years. Having grown up in the business, Joe had never really investigated the strengths and weaknesses of his position as Vice President. His father was always the President and he and his older brother Jacob were the heirs. The business was in turmoil because his father’s health was precarious and he was forced to step down. Joe’s brother was expecting to step up to the role of Vice President but Joe knew that was a mistake. The business itself was being quickly eroded because of the sustainability issues facing the world. Joe could see this but not Jacob. Joe needed to have a long talk with Jacob to make him see reason. Either they worked together for the future or Joe would have to take the lead role.
TASK:
Prepare an outline of points for Joe to make in his discussion with his brother. Explain the role of the 21
st
century leader and why it differs from that of the 20
th
century leader. Make sure to reference your reading material to validate the points you make.

earning Activity 2:
John Kotter in his article “
What
Leaders Really D

" makes the following statement: Managers promote stability while Leaders press for change, and only organizations that embrace both sides of the contradiction can thrive in turbulent times."
TASK:
After reading the background information below, explain what you think Dean Adams’ role should be in light of this quote; the leaders or the manager’s? Identify the two roles leader and manager. Be sure to include in your comments the different solutions that may result from a leader's perspective and that of the manager's perspective as well as where they overlap. Finally, suggest which role’s perspective is best for Adam and the organization and why.
Background: Studer International
At 7:30
a.m.,
Dean Adams hit the snooze alarm for the third time, but he knew he could never go back to sleep. Rubbing his eyes and shaking off a headache, Adams first checked his BlackBerry and read an urgent message from his boss, explaining that Sue Chan, chief security analyst, had resigned this morning and needed to be replaced immediately. Frustrated, Adams lumbered toward the shower, hoping it would energize him to face another day. After last night’s management meeting, which had ended after midnight, he was reeling from the news that his Wall Street employer, Studer International, was spiraling toward a financial meltdown.
Adams scratched his head and wondered, “How could one of the world’s largest insurance companies plummet from being the gold standard in the industry to one struggling for survival?” At the end of 2007, Studer had $100 billion in annual revenues, 65 million customers, and 96,000 employees in 130 countries. One year later and staggered by losses stemming from the credit crisis, Studer teetered on the brink of failure and was in need of emergency government assistance. .

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

CLA 2 Guide to the Media PlanThe fourth P” is for promotion,
1. CLA 2 Guide to the Media Plan
The fourth “P” is for promotion, and deals with the process of
integrated marketing communications. The questions become
“what do you say, to whom do you say it, and how often do you
say it?” Development of a media plan is how marketers organize
their approach to these questions. Your text identifies eight
steps in developing effective communications. For the purpose
of the media plan you are going to develop for your chosen
product / service, you need to specifically address effective
communications.
Develop a media plan for your product / service that examines:
I. Identification of the Target Audience: Who are the potential
buyers or consumers of your products / service? Who are the
influencers? Use the segmentation variables we reviewed in
class as a guide.
II. Design the Communications Message: Buyers pass through
three consumer response stages cognitive, effective, and
behavioral. What you say may be influenced by where the
consumer is at any one time in these three stages. What is the
communications message that you will use to promote your
product?
III. The Media Communications Mix : Your media plan will
look at fourof the major modes of communication (you may use
others reviewed in class such as personal selling if it is a better
fit to substitute for up to two of these modes):
a. Advertising: Are your advertising objectives to inform,
persuade, reinforce, or remind? What advertising media mix is
being used? Are you including media that your target market
will see?
b. Sales promotion: What consumer promotions are being
offered? Examples are samples, coupons, warranties, cross -
promotions, point of purchase displays? Describe how you
would present the offer?
2. c. Public relations and publicity: What types of publ ic relations
would you use? Would you offer a news release to newspapers
or other media about your product / service? If yes what would
be the subject. You may offer other types of public relations
activities such as those listed in the text.
d. Direct Marketing: Will you offer direct marketing efforts?
For example, direct mail, telephone calls, emails, mail order
catalogs, or kiosk marketing? Would you use direct marketing
through the website or internet?
You may use another mode of marketing communication such as
those described in the text and class such as internet marketing,
personnel selling, trade shows, outdoor billboards, please
confirm your choice with me if you are selecting something not
listed in a-d.
Promotion Budget: You need to develop a promotion mix budget
for the communication plan only (not for business operations or
product development) to give an approximation of cost you will
spend on each promotion component. Let us know how you
obtained the total budget funds, that is available to spend on
promotion activities that you would use in your promotion plan.
Give the estimated expense of each activity and the percentage
of the total budget. Arrange in an excel spreadsheet.

Introduction
Home Life and Family
Amanda is a girl, she was born in Nigeria. She is the firstborn
in the family. She has no siblings. Her family was very excited
when she was born. Since the day she was born, the parents
have become child-centric and don’t want to be away from the
child for long. The support network is strong. The parents
understand the biology of bonding. The bonding between
mother and child develops due to the production of the hormone
oxytocin. During pregnancy, the level of oxytocin rises. When
the mother and the child touch, the level of oxytocin rises which
makes the mothers want to be close with the child almost all of
the time. ( Craig, 2021).
Amanda lives with her two parents but most of the time she
spends with her mother when the father is at work. The father
doesn’t get much time with the child because most of the time
he finds her asleep. The father's involvement in the first stages
of the child is increased. The father would take off from work
just to spend time with the child. In the first stages of child
development, fatherhood and motherhood are as deep. The more
the father spends time with the baby, the more the and becomes
strong. There are times when the mother goes to work and the
father is left to take care of the baby. The mother usually takes
primary care of the child. When Amanda cries, the mother is the
first to take her. The mother is more vigilant in taking care of
the baby than the father. ( Nabuzoka, & Empson, 2009).
5. Amanda is very noisy and likes to scream. To distract her, the
caregiver has to use something noisy. The curiosity of Amanda
is stimulated by the parents to enhance the coordination of the
hands and the eyes. From a period of 6 weeks to three months,
Amanda starts making vowel sounds and becomes more social,
and will enjoy seeing faces and smiles when touched. The type
of parenting for this period is attachment parenting. Amanda is
the dearest of the parents. The parents of the child become
child-centric and they both want to spend some time with the
baby. The support network of the baby is very strong. The
father's involvement at the early stages of the child's
development is being increased. The father is connecting with
the baby through touch. Most of the time off work will be spent
with the baby. The hygiene of the infant is more emphasized by
the person taking care of the baby. The baby will be cleaned
regularly. Sickness hygiene of the baby will be observed where
the mother will be careful to keep the environment around the
baby clean from any germs that may cause sickness.
During this stage, Amanda learns to bond and trust her primary
caregiver who is her mother, she seems to have mastered the
sound of her mother, every time her mother talks she loos in the
direction. There are times when she is crying and she hears her
mother talk she pauses her cry. This is unlike with her father.
She enjoys playing with her mother, listening to music, and
simple games. ( Whitehead, 2009).
The parental experience of Amanda’s parents has been
fascinating, they have enjoyed it every step of the way. The
parents like to tickle the child and watch her smile. At the age
of three months, Amanda had learned to respond to her parent's
smile. She had learned to track objects with her eyes. In the
fourth month, Amanda had earned to manipulate the
environment around her and use various tools, her parents had
bought her a cuter princess doll that produced sounds when
squeezed. She learns to make certain sounds as she plays with
her favorite toy. Her favorite game that she enjoys playing with
her parents is peekaboo.
6. When Amanda was 12 months old .she seems to understand
some of the common words that her parents used often. She
often uses the same words to refer to different things. as time
goes by she learns new words.
Community and Culture
The child lives in Nigeria, Africa. The common language that is
spoken is the area where Amanda was born and lives in Hausa.
Hausa is a language that is spoken in the Northern side of
Nigeria. Other languages are spoken in the community where
Amanda libs sis Yoruba and Igbo. Her mother seems to be very
dedicated to helping the child learns to speak. Amanda’s mother
is dedicated to helping her child thrive despite the development
challenges. Her parents invest a considerable amount of time
and effort in helping their child in her developmental stages.t
home, Amanda’s parents usually speak English and they have
been interacting with her using English since she was born.
However, there are times that they use some words in mothering
but it is often rare. The home language that is often used in
Amanda’s home is Hausa. This is the language that the parents
use to communicate while at home. When they are interacting
with the child, they like shifting to English.
The family experiences and receives a lot of social support from
the community. It is the tradition that young mothers be visited
often and be helped with different chores. The child interacts
with different people speaking different languages. The
language that is spoken by most people is the Hausa language.
People usually interact with the child with the Hausa language.
The parents of the child strongly believe in learning the English
language. they believe that English is the official language and
learning English will give the chod an added advantage. English
is the dominant language in Nigeria. It is the language that is
used by the government, the schools, and the community. The
parents of the child do not want their child to be in a dilemma
of not understanding the English language. they want their child
to be bilingual. By being bilingual, Amanda would understand
and be able to express herself in two languages, English and
7. Hausa. The parents believe that by their child learning to speak
English, she will be more creative and will also have an easier
tie when trying to learn the languages. The opportunities that
are available for language literacy for Amanda is that her
parents are engaged and committed through encouraging
conversations to assist their child to learn the languages. (
Kümmerling-Meibauer, 2011).
Section 2:Parental and Infancy
Amanda’s development aligned with the milestones of typically
developing children. The developmental milestones and
physicals were portrayed by Amanda in her physical stage as
she was growing. Her parents had a watchlist calendar that
included the developmental milestones to check if their children
were developing normally. Amanda did not need a more detailed
checkup because she was normal. Between 8-12 months,
Amanda was paying increasing attention to the speech, she was
able to easily respond to simple verbal requests. She
understands when he is told no. She was able to use simple
gestures such as shaking her head when saying “No”.She was
able to babble with inflection. At 12 months she was able to say
“Mama” and “Dada”.She also tried to imitate some of the words
that she heard often. Unlike when she was few months old when
she was friendly with strangers, at 12 months, she is anxious
and shy when she is held with strangers. She cries when she is
left with strangers and her parents leave. She had certain
preferences for toys and certain people. She repeats certain
sounds and gestures that are positively reinforced for attention.
The developmental alignments that did not align include that
she was not able to stand when supported, some of the gestures
took long to learn such as waving her hand. ( Meier, 2004).
The factors that supported language acquisition and
development for Amanda were the relationship that she had with
the family members. Amanda receives proper parenting from her
parents which reduces anxiety. The child felt more secure to
spend more time with her parents which facilitated mo faster
language acquisition and development. Amanda being a girl had
8. an added advantage. Girls are better at mastering speech and
being fluent as compared to boys. The other factor that
supported language acquisition and development for Amanda is
motivation from the parent. She also received a lot of support at
home. She had a lot of exposure from her parents which
contributed to he comprehension and acquisition. The family
speaks more than one language. The primary caregivers of the
child usually speak more often to the child hence stimulating
the child to speak. When the adults speak to the child they
increase the scope of language development and acquisition.
The domains overlapped with Amanda’s acquisition of language
by the parents of the child meeting the emotional cognitive and
social needs. The parents especially interacted with the child
often by talking t her, singing, playing games with her. The
mother of the child often read to the child. This helped
stimulate the language skills of the child. Reading is a key to
introducing the child to the language. Infants learn new sounds
daily. The physical domain was very important for the child's
language acquisition. The caregivers provide a lot of spoken
language. ( Meier, 2004).
The child’s environment that supports the connection between
the domains is the social environment which involves the
relationship of the child with the parents and the people in the
community. Language and social-emotional domains. Language
development is dependent on other developmental domains. The
environment of the child supports the language development
where the parents read and talk to the child even before they
could speak their first word. Infants can acknowledge when
somebody is conveying something for their advantage and along
these lines to understand data uniquely in contrast to when they
only observe it. At the point when grown-ups utilize the eye to
eye contact, call a child's name, and point for the child's
advantage, these signs lead children to perceive that somebody
is showing them something, and this mindfulness can influence
how and what they realize. ( Plural Publishingrporated. 2018).
Language acquisition was strongly impacted by physical and
9. social-emotional development. The child experienced
significant and obvious change none domain at a time. For
example, when the child was learning to walk, which is in the
physical domain, their ere no progress in language development.
During language development and acquisition of the child, other
domains experienced less change and were less prominent.
Cognitive development includes the intellectual development of
the child develops the ability to pay attention and to process
thought. The social and emotional domain is where the child
grows to understand and control their emotions. they understand
what others want and feel. The child in this domain also learns
to interact with others. Interacting with others helps in language
development and acquisition. The language and the literary
skills of the child develop at different stages. It starts with
creating sounds of speech to understanding the syntax of the
language where the child understands the grammar and can put
sentences together.
The family and cultural influences that impacted the child's
language acquisition was the input that the child received from
her environment. Culture affects the parenting style. From the
early stages of infancy, parents talk to their children differently
which affects their language development and acquisition.
Parents prepare children on how they interact with others.
Culture molds the behavior of the children and their thinking
patterns which affects their language development and
acquisition. ( Wang, 2014).
The caregiver of the child provided opportunities for language
acquisition and development by talking, reading, and sing to the
child even before she could speak her first words. The frequent
interaction with the child played a huge impact on language
development the language that the parents were using when they
were interacting with the child provided a great opportunity.
The interaction with the child creates an environment where the
child can learn and begin to talk. In the early stages of child
development, the child undergoes different changes in different
domains. The language exposure from parents and caregivers
10. provides an opportunity for the child to learn a language.
Caregivers who respond to their children through verbal
descriptions and questions make children more receptive to
language. The culture that influenced the child’s language
acquisition is her mother talking reading and singing to her. The
book that she often read was “The Very Hungry Caterpillar” She
also liked to watch “Sesame Street”.( Becker, & Deen, 2020).
