Teaching Oral Vocabulary
The authors of your text presented "best practices in oral language instruction". Certain teaching practices support oral language more than others. One key feature is the importance of explicit vocabulary instruction. Studies have shown that programs that engage children in explicit instruction have greater effects that those that rely on words taught implicitly in the context of reading (Marulis & Neuman, 2010).

• Explain how you can accelerate children's oral language development during their early years?
