Ham, C.
This appealing resource discusses how language has developed from sounds and non-verbal cues to words and written forms across all cultures over time. Topics include origins, languages of the world, forms of recorded written language, slang and jargon, non-verbal communication, codes and signals, and animal communication. The rich language, witty captions, and bright, colourful images will engage students in grades 3-7. Useful as a read-aloud and to support student investigations, the resource also includes questions for inquiry and critical thinking.
