Boost Your Child's Language Skills

BACK TO SCHOOL…. Or Remote learning?

Fall is here and regardless of your child’s situation with school or home learning, you can still help boost their language skills! It’s a beautiful time of year to be outside and socially distance on a walk or in your backyard. You can play I Spy on a walk or gather different colored leaves in the woods to target commenting and labeling!

Words of the Month:

Talk about these vocabulary words with your children. Encourage them to make up sentences with the words, describe or define them and name adjectives related to them. It’s a great way to incorporate language and word knowledge into everyday fun!
