CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -What is spontaneous speaking in language education? Well, the dictionary definition of spontaneous gives us a good starting place: “Performed or occurring as a result of a sudden impulse or inclination and without premeditation or external stimulus.” “Having an open, natural, and uninhibited manner.”

Detailed explanation-2: -The approach focuses on input, comprehension, and meaningful communication and puts less emphasis on grammar, teacher monologues, direct repetition and accuracy.

Detailed explanation-3: -It is based on linguist Stephen Krashen’s theory of language acquisition, which assumes that speech emerges in four stages: (1) preproduction (listening and gestures), (2) early production (short phrases), (3) speech emergence (long phrases and sentences), and (4) intermediate fluency (conversation).

Detailed explanation-4: -Naturalistic language learning takes place if people are not explicitly taught the foreign language, but rather learn it by trying to communicate in it. Most studies relating to naturalistic language acquisition observe immigrants’ children who do not yet go to school.
