  • Models: Adult models the target multiple times in

an interaction with a child

  • Recasts: Adult repeats child’s utterance containing

the target form (retaining meaning) and adds new phonological, semantic, and/or syntactic info

  • In each case, children aren’t prompted or

required to respond.

  • Plan for opportunities to include models.

actions as it is happening

  • Core language facilitation strategies work very

well for children who are ELLs

  • Remember! The more growth in the native

language is supported, the stronger their language skills in English will also be.

slide-13
SLIDE 13

Use the PEER sequence during reading:

  • Prompt the child to say something about the

book

  • Evaluate the child's response
  • Expand the child's response by rephrasing

and adding information

  • Repeat the prompt to make sure the child

has learned from the expansion

Dialogic Reading

13

slide-14
SLIDE 14
  • Ask about what happened in a book a child has

already read. A: “Where did the mouse go in this story?"

  • Can be used at the end of a book and before reading

a familiar book.

Recall Prompts

  • Focus on the pictures in books.
  • No single correct response.

A: "Tell me what's happening in this picture."

Open-Ended Prompts

slide-16
SLIDE 16
  • Questions that begin with what, where, when,

why, and how questions and relate to pictures in the book.

A: “Why is the goat up there?” A: “Where is he going?”

(while pointing to a picture in the book)

slide-17
SLIDE 17
  • Ask children to relate the pictures or words in the

book they are reading to experiences outside the book

While looking at a book with a picture of animals on a farm, you might say, "Remember when we went to the animal park last week. Which of these animals did we see there?“

  • Meta-cognitive skill for the sound structures of

language

  • Phonological awareness skills serve as a foundation

for later reading

  • Ability to attend to, discriminate, remember, and

manipulate sounds at the sentence, word, syllable, and phoneme level

Phonological Awareness

18

slide-19
SLIDE 19
  • Focus on early developing skills first -
  • Identifying rhyming words
  • Putting together words to form compounds (hot + dog

= hotdog)

  • Skills such as initial sound identification and

blending sounds emerge later in preschool and kindergarten.

  • In a mixed age group, we can tailor our supports

to where children are with their PA skills.

Teaching Phonological Awareness (PA) Skills

19

slide-20
SLIDE 20
  • Any time can be a fun time to work on PA skills
  • At snack, have students guess the snack based on

the first sound

  • We are having something that starts with the /b/ sound!

Who can guess?

  • During songs and music at circle time, have kids

identify rhyming words, and substitute funny rhymes.

  • Hickory dickory dock, the mouse ran up the sock, rock, or

block!

  • Using routines to build in first sound identification

(i.e., taking role in the morning, doing days of the week)

PA Skills Don’t Have to be Drilled!

  • Multiple models have evidence that support

success of parent participation through coaching to improved child outcomes

  • Approaches are compatible with Part C early

intervention guidelines

  • Social communication intervention is a core

component

  • Coaching supports active engagement by the

child in everyday routines and activities

ASD Interventions

An adult learning strategy in which the coach promotes the learner’s (coachee’s) ability to reflect on his or her actions as a means to determine the effectiveness of an action or practice and develop a plan for refinement and use of the action in immediate and future situations.

  • webinar. They are: Georgia, Indiana, Kansas, Maryland, North Carolina, Ohio, Texas,

Virginia, and service coordinators in Washington. Additionally, providers in Utah can receive PD hours towards credential renewal and Michigan is offering 1 SCECH for this webinar. All participants may receive a certificate of completion from this webinar after completing an evaluation and post-test. This certificate can sometimes be used to apply for CE credits with your credentialing body if you are not an Illinois provider. Links and further information will be available at the end of today’s presentation
