| Summary: | Thesis (Ed.M.)--Boston University === Language development has been studied for many years.
The beginning vocabularies are easy to count ana record.
As tne child grows and moves about, his speaking vocabulary
increases very rapidly. Some estimates suggest
that a minimum speaking vocabulary at six years would include
three thousand words.
New words have come into children's speaking vocabularies
as a result of modern technology since World War II.
Lists of spontaneous vocabulary furnish material for teachers
and text book writers. The purpose of this study is
to analyze two lists recorded in 1954 and 1955.
An attempt has been made to classify the new list.
The lists were compared with three existing lists, Rinsland,
International Kindergarten Union and Gates. |
