Is your child…
Struggling with sequencing their ideas & following instructions?
Lacking in confidence in social situations?
Experiencing difficulties expressing thoughts & emotions?
Join us on September the 13th 2018 for our next Evening Collective for parents and educators: Strengthening communication skills for children & young people
Effective communication skills gives children and young people access to engaging and participating in their learning and social interactions with confidence.
We want to share tools from our knowledge in this area and ideas you can encourage at home or school to make communication successful, any age from Kindy to HSC.
The Sydney Therapy & Co. team will be addressing 3 key areas:
-
Expressing ideas
Why is vocabulary building is essential and links into learning
What tools can encourage great vocabulary growth in reading for meaning
How can they learn to better sequence ideas and thoughts (out loud and on paper)
-
Understanding and participating
Why we encourage good listening skills, following instructions for participation
How can we encourage skills for at home or in the classroom
What role does memory play and how can we link memory with language
-
Social Thinking
What are good perspective taking skills. How can we facilitate children and young people to use them
How does communication link to emotions and expressing feelings
What tools can encourage children and young people to be socially confident?
Suitable for parents & educators of children from Kindy to HSC level.
