Hi jessica - if you think about the modern world and how we now communicate - everything is technology based - mobile phones, computers, email, tablets etc. - poorer families may not have access to these kinds of resources. Also - communication development is also dependent on life experiences - if you live in a poorer area - where the libraries have been closed down, where you family can't afford to provide books, if the adults in your household have a lower standard of education then communication skills will be less developed.
Hope these ideas help get you started.
