Development matters?

[Jeany]

I am pretty certain that I understand most of the development matters but this one always leaves me a little confused. :unsure:

Begins to break down the flow of speech into words.

What does this actually mean?

I would say that if you were scribing something for a child, e.g. 'this is my mummy' (not the best example!), that the child speaks slow enough for the adult to write the words ... ... "this ... ... is ... ... my ... ... mummy."

or as the child writes they say a word for each mark/letter/squiggle, knowing a word is written for each word spoken
