EDU 270 Lesson 5 Blog Response
After watching the videos on Language and Reading, how does this information impact you as a teacher?
I felt that as I watched the videos on language and reading I learned the importance of the sensitive period. This made me feel that we need to do more to address the three million word gap our english language learners face and we need to provide more early childhood education for low income families. I think if we can increase students exposure to language in the sensitive period by even educating parents on how to speak with their children to develop language during the sensitive period would be an effective method for closing the opportunity gap.
