Regulating Self through Private Speech
Has one ever stopped to think that if private speech helps with self-regulation, that it should also show a relation in the way that a child behaves while performing a variety of tasks? Often it has been found that the more a child is exposed to private speech the less likely they are to perform well on other tasks put before them.
It has been noted that some children are so skilled in putting together puzzles together and picture matching that acquisition of knowledge one needed came automatic. Other children may have failed tremendously, because of it being so difficult to comprehend. In neither of these cases would self- guiding nor private speech be intermitted. If every time a child faces a task to hard to handle, private speech is encouraged, than the child is more prone to failure.
Ever now and then you will notice a child talking to one self or perhaps squirming in their seats. One may notice a lower scoring on homework assignments test and achievement. Though one may find this possible, one may also find a gain in math achievement among certain age groups. First graders are most likely to be achieving second grade math skills. This can be noticed among those children that talked squirmed and grasped to succeed.
More audible gestures may have been noticed, when there was a lack of nonverbal techniques. This may include counting ones fingers to solve a math problem or tracing an article using a pencil. If a child often used private speech, one may tend to notice the child rarely becoming fidgeted and quiet attentive.
Children often progressed from audible to inner speech. This is where a child was given the ability to control their motor skills and learn how to focus their attention. Private speech and behavior task management work hand in hand.
Often children are tested with a parent in solving problems together. If the parent has a warm and nourishing response toward the child, one would notice a great control within the child being able to control the task put before him/her.
It has been found that children with reliable mothers were often seen using self-guidance private speech. Anytime a child takes on a new task they need a supportive parent, which will be able to encourage them and praise their progress. Havent you ever given guidance when your child had homework? Maybe, you explained how to do a math problem or spell a word, if so you were giving directions to your child. Once a child becomes aware of handling this task, maybe more learning strategies can be put into play. Eventually your child will be able to guide one self and the parent can relax and watch a progress in play.
Many times children are pushed aside due to being attentive or impulsive when it comes to learning. In the parent-child relation, one tends to notice that the child is given commands and criticism and much more that prevents them from learning and knowing how to control ones actions.
Whether you are a parent or teacher, you should be made aware of the value of private speech. Private speech has been known to be healthy and very adaptive when it comes to essential behavior. You may find that there are children that need private speech for longer periods of time than others. Can you believe that some parents even go as far as to say that private speech is useless and unacceptable conduct for social interaction? This is a sign of mental illness. Children tend to withdraw around negative talk, like they arent good enough to fit in even around their parents. Rising small children isnt a easy task, but these little ones deserve a fair start on developing their skills to where they can handle different situations.
