Description
This book introduces the main concepts of pragmatics as they relate to the young English language learner classroom and research with young second language learners (YLLs). It considers the speech acts which are particularly relevant to YLLs and presents research findings on learners' development of speech act perception and production. It provides second language (L2) teachers and teacher educators with an understanding of young learners' pragmatic development and ideas for specific classroom activities to help foster speech act development in the young language learner classroom. Moving beyond the research methods traditionally employed in L2 pragmatics research, it demonstrates how participant-centred data elicitation methods can be effective when conducting research with children. This book will appeal to graduate students in applied linguistics and TESOL as well as pre- and in-service primary school L2 teachers and teacher educators.
