As your child’s language develops, the child’s response to questions should be more than a one word answer. You can ask questions that are more complex so that your child learns to reason, express ideas, feelings and develop the skills of problem solving, predicting and understanding cause and effect.

Auditory Sequencing As the child moves beyond two item auditory memory (see Poster ‘Auditory Memory’), auditory sequencing is an important skill to be developed. It is necessary for children to be able to retell stories, jokes and riddles, follow sequential directions and recount events they have heard. The child needs to remember things in the correct order. This skill can be developed with nursery rhymes, songs, games and stories. 1.

Use phrase and simple sentences The basic language is a sentence and it is important that this be the input from adults rather than single words. In a phrase or sentence there is more acoustic information and more time to process. Capture your child’s attention Your child will learn best in meaningful situations and when his/her attention is focused. Use repetition Most young children need to hear language repeated in a variety of contexts before they process, comprehend and use it. Repetition is a natural strategy to use at the beginning of developing spoken language. Up we go! 15 Model correct language Use the correct grammar and pronunciation when speaking to your child and repeating her utterances. Expand vocabulary and extend language This is done by introducing language that is slightly more complex than your child’s present expressive level. Eg. Places to live – House, castle, high rise apartments, caravan, tepee, etc. 18 20 Roll the ball! Use questioning – appropriate to the child’s level of language development.

Eg, Twinkle twinkle little… Make it fun! When children are actively participating and enjoying themselves, the most learning will occur. This is a very important strategy. Children love to have fun.
