Dear Fatima

I am very interested in your study because I work for fifteen years  
with children
age 3-6 yrs old. I would like to discuss with you more of your  
finindings also I
will recommedn using th esymtalk method where children use pictures  
that present
noun or verb to create a sentence, this tecnique helped my children  
in class to
produce the verbs in the correct forms ( with some exceptions and  
allowing
mistakes) while they are having fun.
If you need further info, let's communicate further.

Hi Fatima,

I recommend for yoy to use an imitation task within a context. For
example, you can use symbolic play where you tell the child that
the doll is shy and does not talk to adults, and that you need
his/her assistance in repeating what the doll is saying. I used
this procedure for assessing children's acquistion of SVO and VSO
sentences, and it was very helpful.

Good luck with your study,

Reem
