Can someone tell me the due date for a language sample project?

Best Buddies at EKU

Since most, if not all, of us are majoring in Special Education, I thought that this group would be of interest to you. It's called Best Buddies and it is kinda like Big Brother/Big Sister for young adults with disabilities. It is geared toward giving  these young adults a chance to make friends in college, since they do not have the ability to go to college and do so on their own.

If you are interested, I included the link below. It's our Facebook page and will contain any information you need to know about meetings and events. If you have any additional questions, feel free to e-mail me at jessica_coots3@mymail.eku.edu, as well as e-mail our president Mollie Kuebler at mollie_kuebler@mymail.eku.edu.

Pragmatics Analysis - Michael Halliday

When you do an analysis of pragmatics you are looking a child's competency in the "use" of language.  You look at their proficiency or ability to participate in conversation as well as their competency with the functions of language.

If you do an analysis of a child's pragmatic skills you will use Michael Halliday’s taxonomy of the functions of language to determine which functions the child demonstrates within the sample of language you capture.  Use the website at the link to provide you additional information.

Test 2

Does anyone know when Ms. White is reopening the test so we can make corrections?

CONGRATULATIONS!

Congratulations Mrs. White!
Your promotion is a promotion for us too!  We have experienced your level of excellence and you are the reminder to dedicate and rededicate ourselves to the craft of teaching!  I appreciate the assessment tool you have guided me to.  You are a resource that I will utilize often! Thank you

Pragmatics Help

I'm analyzing pragmatics for my Language Sample Project, and I was wondering what "Halliday" meant on the worksheet. It's in the first sentence under the title "2. Function of Language." The answer to this question might be really obvious, but I'm a bit confused.

Wonderful Video on stopping the "R-word"

**This is a really awesome video about the "R-word". We talked about mental retardation today in class and it reminded me of this film clip. I hope you all can appreciate this video as much as I do!!

What the Heck?!

Apparently I had the wrong dates wrote down for the observation and the language sample. So the observation is due next monday the 26th correct? Gosh I cannot believe I messed that up!

Language Sample
