Hanen Teacher Talk® Training Series 2019
November 1 @ 9:30 am - 4:30 pm HKT
If you work in an early childhood setting, Teacher Talk® can provide you with core strategies to help you create rich and stimulating language-learning environments for the young children you work with (from birth to 5 years). The training is delivered by a Hanen-trained Speech & Language Therapist.
The Teacher Talk ® Training Series is designed to actively engage participants through discussions, small group activities, analysis of video examples and completion of practical Action Plans that participants take back to their classrooms. Teachers receive workbooks for each session that allow them to personalize the content and think about how they will meet the needs of the individual children in their classroom.
As caregivers of young children, you have a very important role to play in laying the foundation for the development of reading and writing skills. This training will discuss the important links between oral language development and literacy.
Learn how to:
- help children develop positive attitudes towards the use of print.
- make reading and writing a natural, meaningful part of the day.
- use book reading as a time for interaction and conversation.
