At
three years plus Sam is using more complex language and ideas in the story on
the tape. It is full of information and he is using longer and longer
utterances. He is able to use verbs but the tense is still problematic (‘I
drawed’ instead of ‘I drew’) where the endings are irregular. The overused rule
at this stage is that children ten to assume that all past tenses end in –ed.
Adjectives are used (pretty, red) and he uses conjunctions to allow additional
information into the story but they are limited as shows by the repeated use of
‘and’ and ‘and then’. There is still some difficulty with irregular pluralisation (mens).
