Gambar
Hello guys, welcome back to my blog. In this blog I will share about The development stages for learners. Definition of young learners Young learners is a catch-all term for students who are not yet adults. The term swept into fashion at the beginning of the nineties reflecting the trend to lower the starting age and broaden the access to English language learning to younger people in many countries all over the world. Developmental  stages that learners go through between birth and puberty  Pedagogy  is the art and science of helping children to learn ( Knowles, 1990 ;  Knowles, Holton, & Swanson, 2011 ). The different stages of childhood are divided according to what developmental theorists and educational psychologists define as speci fic patterns of behavior seen in particular phases of growth and development. One common attribute observed throughout all phases of childhood is that learning is subject centered. This section reviews the developmental character...

 Hello my good readers, thank you for always visiting my blog. In this time we will talk and share about Rituals in School. A ritual is a sequence of activities involving gestures, words, actions, or objects, performed in a sequestered place and according to a set sequence. Rituals may be prescribed by the traditions of a community, including a religious community. Rituals are characterized, but not defined, by formalism, traditionalism, invariance, rule-governance, sacral symbolism, and performance. Rituals are a feature of all known human societies. They include not only the worship rites and sacraments of organized religions and cults, but also rites of passage, atonement and purification rites, oaths of allegiance, dedication ceremonies, coronations and presidential inaugurations, marriages, funerals and more. Even common actions like hand-shaking and saying "hello" may be termed as rituals. The field of ritual studies has seen a number of conflicting definitions of the ...

Learning First Language at Home and School

Hello readers... back again with my blog, so now we will talk about a new topic that is Learning First Language at Home and School. A first language is the language a person has learned from birth or within the critical period, or that a person speaks the best and so is often the basis for sociolinguistic identity. In some countries, the terms native language or mother tongue refer to the language of one's ethnic group rather than one's first language. Sometimes, there can be more than one mother tongue,. Those children are usually called bilingual. By contrast, a second language is any language that one speaks other than one's first language. On starting school, children find themselves in a new physical environment. The classroom is new, most of the classmates are strangers, the centre of authority (the teacher) is a stranger too. The structured way of learning is also new. If, in addition to these things, there is an abrupt change in the language of interaction, then the...
