Chapter 1 Target 1

The target is. . . I can compare and contrast speech and language.  On the sheet students wrote:

• Speech & Lanugage - both deal with words
• Language doesn't always have to be spoken but it communicates
• neurological (speech)
• Speech is vocal but language may not be
• dialect - speech and language
• Speech is the sound of speaking
• Language is shared code
• Speech is words/talking

Soooo....when we COMPARE & CONTRAST...we show how one is similar to and different from each other.  Using what you've written then I could answer the question

Speech and language are similar in that they both deal with words but differ in the form used for communicating those words.  Speech communicates words only vocally.  Language can communicate words via a spoken, written or signed form.

How else might you use the information above or other information to show how speech and language are similar and different?
