Typical Language Accomplishments
I thought it was important for you to know the typical Language Accomplishments for Children, Birth to Age 3.
Learning to read is built on a foundation of language skills that children start to learn at birth--a process that is both complicated and amazing. Most children develop certain
skills as they move through the early stages of learning language. By age 7, most children are reading.
The following list of accomplishments is based on current scientific research in the fields of reading, early childhood education, and child development. Studies continue in their
fields, and there is still much still to learn. As you look over the accomplishments, keep in mind that children vary a great deal in how they develop and learn.
If you have questions or concerns about your child's progress, talk with the child's doctor, teacher, or a speech and language therapist. For children with any kind of disability or
learning problem, the sooner they can get the special help they need, the easier it will be for them to learn.

*Respond to gestures and facial expressions.
