      Communication is key, especially in a classroom. While it is important for children to work on sounding out words and developing their vocabulary, it is also just as important, if not more, for the children to actually understand how to use the language they are learning. It is important that they understand that the main way of communication is through language. Therefore, it is key that this is what teachers keep in mind when they are in the classroom. What the children learn, they will need to apply in real life.
