Mother Tongue: This development can take place through the medium of any language, so use of the mother tongue can be encouraged, since it is via this language that parents will be more fluent and can convey more complex meaning to their children. When you explain this to parents, ask them to talk, tell stories and use books in the mother tongue at home. They could also use the simple reading books that are now available in various languages, sometimes with English translations (e.g. The Snowy Day, published by Bodley Head). An alternative is to use books which contain space for texts in other languages, such as The Terraced House Books, published by Methuen.
During the following decade, schools and education authorities were expected to establish language policies that would recognise and support a variety of mother tongues. Bilingual children were to be considered an advantage in the classroom. The Cox Report (1988) reiterated this viewpoint, suggesting that 'these children would make greater progress in English if their mother tongue skills were encouraged and valued' (Cox 1988, p. xx).
In contrast to snakes, most lizards have external ear openings as well as the tympanum or ear drum, which is nearly on a level with the skin.
Tongue: There is great variation in the tongue of lizards. In some species it is sticky, being used to capture insects in the same manner as does the toad or frog. In others it is forked, and colored, and functions as do those of snakes. Still others possess a flat, fleshy tongue which assists in pulling food into the mouth and acts as a sense organ as well.
