Home is a Learning Laboratory
This session will discuss strategies for building language in toddlers and preschoolers and full access to communication in the home. The goal is for the child who is deaf or hard of hearing to have language fluency before going to school. Communication in the home is essential to this process.
How do we use the home to build language? What strategies can parents use for language input? This session will focus on games and activities and ways to build and expand language into rich vocabulary as well as the child receiving full access to diverse use of language.
- Obtain new strategies for language development
- Understand issues of access to a spoken language
- Discuss the importance of language for literacy
