Through the exercises in practical life, the child develops the control of movement and eye-hand coordination, which will aid in writing.
Other activities involve precise movement of the hand and body leading to coordination of sight and muscle control.
Language is taught to the child through everyday conversation shared among peers or adults within his life.
The child's own tools for language are hearing, vision and speech.
