Paxton Center School - Language Practice

There are many ways we can help our children improve their language and become effective communicators. Here is a great video of how we are all different and can be accepting of all of our differences.

Receptive/Expressive Language Practice

Here are some ideas to work on language at home!

Have your child tell you about a book they read (sequence the story, answer questions who/where/what happened, etc.).
Have your child tell you what they did yesterday/will do tomorrow (using correct verb tense).
Have your child tell you about their day (who, what, where).
Have your child tell you the steps in washing a car, making a sandwich, riding a bike, playing their favorite game, etc.
Have your child tell you how a truck and a car are similar and different (cat/mouse, sun/moon, chicken/duck, etc).
Have your child tell you about their favorite food- what it looks like, comes from, size, shape and color of it.
Have your child name something that goes with a hot dog, peanut butter, socks, etc.
Have your child list as many animals that live on a farm, things you need to got to the beach, boy's/girl's names, etc.
