<span>To acquire knowledge, thought is a fundamental necessity
-It must be "thought about" before any new ideas can be formulated (e.g., a student who is learning English as a second language must be competent in his primary native language before he can "think" or understand new concepts in another language)
-Initial emergence of language and thought are separate from each other, until about the age of 3 when a transition takes place in the child from the external to the internal
-Children practice private speech (self-talk) to become more competent
---The use of private speech helps children to self-regulate through organizing, guiding, and controlling their behavior
---Private speech is responsible for all higher levels of mental functioning
Noam Chomsky
Language Acquisition
-Language learning is innate
-Chomsky believes that children are prewired to learn language and that infants have a language acquisition device (LAD) built-in neurologically so that they can intuitively understand grammar
-There is a critical period when children find it easy to learn language
Language development milestones: Infant (0-12 months)
-Early vocalizations are spontaneous sounds of cooing (vowels) or crying
-Then babbling sounds (phonemes) begin with sounds more like patterned speech with consonant-vowel strings ("da-da-da-da")</span>
So if 32 oz is 20% more than the average bottle, you multiply 32 by .20 which gives you 6.4. This means that the 32 oz bottle is 6.4 oz more than the regular bottle. Furthermore, 32 - 6.4 = 25.6 so that's how big the typical bottle is.
2,625 - (-6) =
= 2, 625 + 6
= 8, 625
the red square shows that this is a right angle, so we can just subtract 52 to find z
90-52=z
38=z
50 because half of the numbers in 100 are even and all even numbers are divisible by two
