Participants will be able to:
- Understand the impact of adult-child interactions on oral language development
- Use presence and playfulness to increase engagement in conversation with children
- Implement multisensory approaches to teach vocabulary
- Use strategies to support children’s expressive language and conversational speech
Participants can earn up to 10 PD hours by attending three online sessions and completing three intersession assignments.
