Abstract

This study aims to describe and explain the role of character education in helping the development of a second language in gifted children based on sociolinguistic studies. This study uses a qualitative method with a descriptive analysis approach. The data in this study were obtained from the analysis of conversations or dialogues and the development of the Dini Suryani language of third-grade students at SDN 27/III Lolo Kecil with their peers, interacting in class with the teacher and while in the family environment. Researchers found that early language development is different from normal children, who tend to have a neat and well-structured use of language. Dini also uses varied and appropriate vocabulary according to specific contexts. Dini also applies the use of intonation and facial expressions in interacting in communicating. However, Dini has a personality problem that is high egoistic, such as when she wants something, she will do anything, even if she forces her will. To maximize the ability of early character education is the right supporting step or method. Thus, Dini can become a gifted child with a good personality.
