| Description |
Language learning begins at birth. Receptive language is the ability to understand spoken language. It is enhanced by communication partners and it develops before expressive language. To become an effective communicator, a child needs to understand what is being said. Providing a child with a language rich and stimulating environment will enhance a young child's understanding and lead to verbal communication – but what strategies support a young child’s receptive language skills?
Participants will:
a. understand why receptive language skills need to happen first;
b. understand the connection between receptive and expressive communication;
c. gain strategies to build upon a child's receptive language in everyday context
