Acquisition
Theories
- Behaviorist theory.
- B.F skinner proposed that language acquisition is
learned the same way as any behavior. By positive and
negative reinforcements. Children are viewed as passive
recipients of language.
- Example: Children may be given stickers or trinkets for correct
language usage and are repremanded for poor language usage.

with Universal Grammar as mentioned before.

- Social Interactions Model
- Halladay and Pinet were apart of constructing this theory. Consists of different categories of
language. instrumental, regulatory, personal, imaginative, interactional, heuristic language,
and informative. Each of these categories are viewed as essential assets of language that all
people need to communicate successfully Teachers must allow students growth in all 7 of
these models.
- Teachers should know the different
categories and give focus to all 7 of them for
children to acquire language successfully
and fully.

- Stephen Krashen Theory
- We acquire language only 1 way. When we UNDERSTAND messages. We call this comprehensible
input. When we understand WHAT people say and NOT HOW they say it. You're speaking ability
would emerge gradually as you are exposed continually to a new language. When you start to
speak, it is not the beginning of your language acquisition. You may listen for a very long time
before you actually speak. This time is crucial to acquiring language.
- Example: Learners should not be
taught HOW to say something but
understand WHAT is being said.
When you understand that is when
you learn
