We are all set for a great San Francisco Botanical
Gardens tour in Italian
The event will be led by our good friend and Botanical Gardens docent Francesco di Firenze.
There
is no charge for this tour, however it'd be great if children help with
a thank you note after the event.
I will have the material for them.

 Nuove teorie sull'aquisto di lingue nei bambini.
Credo che funzionera' anche in italiano!
New Thoughts On Language Acquisition: Toddlers As Data Miners
ScienceDaily (Feb. 4, 2008) — Indiana University researchers are studying a ground-breaking theory that
young children are able to learn large groups of words rapidly by data-mining.
>
"This new discovery changes completely how we understand children's word learning," Smith said. "It's very exciting."
Yu
and Smith say it's possible that the more words tots hear, and the more
information available for any individual word, the better their brains
can begin simultaneously ruling out and putting together word-object
pairings, thus learning what's what.
