Blog #5

Good afternoon blogger’s!!

I attended today my internship!

Interaction

The interaction that I have is very simple sentence and we use simple vocabulary because I am working with kids around 3-4 years old.


Language lexicon

One of the girls had a sandwich at lunch that she didn't want to eat because it was chicken. So, I start to cut her sandwich in small piece and my fingers were smelling tuna. I didn't know what the words for «thon» in English was so, I asked the guy what was the English words for "thon". I learn the word tuna.

Rewards and challenges


The challenges when you speak with young kids is that you really have to use simple sentence and simple vocabulary.

But, it gives me the chance to increase my pronunciation because I speak slowly with them.


Socio-cultural factors that affect communication

Shyness and anxiety disorders are one of the factors that I observe that was affecting the communication between kids. 

Some of the kids are very shy and doesn't express them self out loud. People that are suffering from shyness may be perfectly comfortable talking to close friends or family in their home, but not in front of unknown people. There are 2 kids in my internship that don't speak at all.
