"...caregivers play an important role in adjusting language to facilitate the use on innate capacities for language acquisition." (Peregoy, 2017).

Nature and nurture are important in learning a language (Peregoy, 2017).

"...behaviorists hypothesized that children learned their first language through stimulus, response, and reinforcement as well, postulating imitation and association as essential processes." (Peregoy, 2017).

Language Acquisition and Universal Grammar

"...children construct grammar through a process of hypothesis testing." (Peregoy, 2017).

"Children acquire grammatical rules, according to Chomsky, with little help from their parents or caregivers." (Peregoy, 2017).

"...acknowledges the important roles of both the child and the social environment in the language acquisition process." (Peregoy, 2017).

-Students listen to audio and memorize it.
-Then drills practice verb form and sentence structure.

Taught in the sequence of listen, speak, read, and write (Peregoy, 2017).

Errors are corrected immediately to avoid forming bad habits (Peregoy, 2017).

"...second language acquisition is similar, though not identical, to first language acquisition." (Peregoy, 2017).

Compares phonological, morphological, and syntactic rules of two languages to predict areas of difficulty in second language development (Peregoy, 2017).

Stephen Krashen's Theories (5 hypotheses)

# data[].attributes.body
-Acquisition and learning are different
-Acquisition is a natural process when communicating with native speakers
-Learning is studying the second language
-Learning cannot turn into acquisition
-Acquired language is for natural fluent communication

# data[].attributes.body
-Formal study of language leads to the development of an internal grammar editor
-to use this editor student must have enough time, focus on grammatical form, and know the rules
-teaching focuses on communication
-some grammar will not develop without instruction

# data[].attributes.body
-language learners acquire the rules of a language in a predictable order
-there is a natural order of acquisition of English grammar
-this is not a strict theory due to the fact that it leaves out an individuals differences

# data[].attributes.body
-second language acquisition is the direct result of learners’ understanding the target language in natural communication situations.
-input: needs to be understandable, slightly more advanced grammatical structures, and can be used for communication

# data[].attributes.body
- the most important affective variables favoring second language acquisition are a low-anxiety learning environment, student motivation to learn the language, self-confidence, and self-esteem.
-encourages quiet time for students to take in the second language

# data[].attributes.body
"...communicative give-and-take of natural conversations between native and non-native speakers as the crucial element of the language acquisition process. (Peregoy, 2017).

# data[].attributes.body
this is a trial and error process of give and take in communication

# data[].attributes.body
social interaction is very important in this theory (Peregoy, 2017).

# data[].attributes.body
output facilitates acquisition by producing requests for clarification and as the learner speaks they have to actively figure out how to verbally express their ideas (Peregoy, 2017).

"Errors are not corrected; students will correct themselves with time" (Peregoy, 2017).
