Ashford 4: – Week 3 – Assignment
 
Language Development Interview 
Much of the knowledge we gain comes from our learning and personal experiences.  For this assignment, you will spend time talking with an experienced preschool teacher or, if you are currently a preschool teacher, you can answer the questions yourself.  Your assignment is to select five questions regarding the support of language acquisition and language developmental stages in the classroom. Please review these possible questions that could guide your interview or you can create your own questions.  
For this project, choose one of the following methods of completion: 
Option 1

Identify five questions that you could ask someone with      preschool experience about how they support language acquisition for the      stages of development in the classroom.  Document the      interview.  You can record the interview (with permission) or you can      write your questions and answers. 
Analyze the provided answers using your knowledge      gained, the textbook, and at least one other resource to substantiate or      refute their answers.  You can provide elaboration for or against      their responses further strengthening your own understanding.  
Summarize and explain three ways you will meet the      needs of children in this stage to support their language development      using the provided answers and your knowledge. 

Option 2

Identify five questions that you may be asked in a      future interview regarding how you will support language acquisition for      the stages of development in your future professional role.  Document      the interview. You can record a mock interview or you can write your      questions/answers. 
Analyze your own answers using your knowledge gained      and information from the textbook and at least one other resource to      substantiate your writing. 
Summarize and explain three ways you will meet the      needs of children in a developmental stage of your choice to support their      language development using your knowledge of language acquisition. 

The interview can be submitted as a video, an audio recording, or a Microsoft Word document (which would be two to three pages in length).  You will also submit a one- to two-page Microsoft Word document (in addition to the title page and reference page) with your developmental level selected and elaboration of three ways you can meet the needs of the children in this developmental stage.  Please support your ideas with information from the textbook and at least one other outside resource.  Your paper must be written in APA format as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center, and include at least one scholarly resources in addition to the course text. 
When you submit your assignments each week, they will be returned to you with specific feedback.  This feedback should be used to revise the assignment for the Final Project.  Please make the necessary corrections and save for Week Five use in the Final Project. 
Carefully review the Grading Rubric for the criteria that will be used to evaluate your assignment.
