RATE OF AUDITORY INPUT Oral input to infants can include several dozen to several hundred new phrases per day. ---------------------- PETERSON READING Our electronic recordings provide continuing high-rate input. ------------------------ Peterson Reading inputs at the rate of 10,000 to 12,000 words per hour. 4,000 to 5000 phrases per hour. 500 hours of input equals 5 million words equals 2 million phrases. ------------------- MAJOR PROBLEM Q. Why do so many persons claim that the brain learns more slowly after the first few months or age two? A. THE RATE OF ORAL INPUT SLOWS Here are some possible reasons why: 1. Child becomes less dependent on parent. 2. Child learns to crawl and walk away. 3. Parents reduce the time they hold the child. 4. Child has less contact with parents and phrases. 5. Parent returns to older children. 6. Parent may have another baby. 7. Parent returns to work. Any of the above can make the learning rate drop precipitously. ------------------------------- |

Peterson Reading capitalizes
on the almost universal emergence
of certain abilities and qualities.
READING ABILITIES
ARE LEARNED IN INFANCY
Reading acquisition.
At 9 months
infants are applying language.
Using sounds
to communicate on purpose.
Connecting objects
and their sounds.
Understanding symbols.
Infants are also
teaching themselves
with crib talk.
Children learn
to play
with the sounds.
Language is learned at home.
The infant progresses rapidly,
quickly using and refining
the rules of conversation.
They move rapidly to complex ideas,
a syntax and grammar.
What you say and what you hear
is a product of your grammar.
You extract
the meaning automatically.
Infants tune up these abilities
over millions of trials and successes.
Our natural surroundings
convey information about our world,
our culture.
Mothers constantly talk
about what they are doing.
Adults use "motherese."
Exaggerated pitch
and stretching out
or expanding the sound.
Learning
to speak requires
precise coordination of tongue,
larynx and throat.
Learning
to use their
abdominal breathing muscles.
Learning words
whose meaning is not known.
Parents can control
a rich development environment.
Certain kinds of experiences
are necessary
to develop the brain.
Pointing is critical.
Reproducing sounds.
Mirroring.
Warning - late talkers.
Signs of other missing skills?
Delayed in production of words?
Signing by the deaf and
children using gestures is similar
to the way we produce words.
How many of the symbols
will the child chain together?
Does the child have the ability
to form sentences?
A child is a brain mechanism
waiting
for experience
to put it into motion.
