Recent research has revealed that there is a correlation between cognitive development and language development in children. According to Meng (2015), a child’s competency in language makes a significant impact on their performance at school. This claim suggests that children who are competent in language are able to easily communicate with their peers and teachers at school. It is through such communication that the children are able to perform well within the school setting. Children who are not equipped with language skills may have difficulty communicating with others in a school setting, thus making it difficult for them to be successful with their schoolwork.
