Spontaneous gesture can help children learn, whether they use a spoken language or sign language, according to a new report. «Children who can hear use gesture along with speech to communicate as they acquire spoken language,» a researcher said. «Those gesture-plus-word combinations precede and predict the acquisition of word combinations that convey the same notions. The findings make it clear that children have an understanding of these notions before they are able to express them in speech.»
