  12. Prevention • We can make a big difference and prevent problems that arise from becoming long-term problems. • We are critical, how we interact with kids is critical, language models we provide are critical • You should definitely be paid more!

  19. When the roles don’t match

  20. When the roles don’t match

  21. The Responsive Partner • Observe • Wait • Listen

  22. What is the child paying attention to? • Before “butting in”, stand back for a moment to observe what the child is focused on. • Focus on this same thing. • Imitate the child’s actions, sounds and words to show you are interested.

  23. OWL Practice • Get into pairs • One of you be the child, of you the caregiver • Child play with your toy as per instructions • Caregiver teach your child language as per instructions

  24. OWL Practice • Get into pairs • One of you be the child, of you the caregiver • Child play with your toy • Caregiver OWL

  25. Comments • Comments instead of questions • Dinosaurs Roleplay Ideas: Expectant look Noise (hmm, ohh?) What now? Or Now what? Tell me more…

  26. Model at child’s level • Model at child’s level (momodejawampatutum) • RULE: one word more than the child • If child says only a few words, teach a new word by saying it all by itself. • If child says several words (e.g., mommy), add a word (e.g., mommy bye bye) • If child says short sentences (him going) add the missing information (He IS going)

  27. What would the child say? No, help, more Don’t!, Stop it! I don’t like that Can I play? Can I have a turn? Pee or Poop (potty) I am eating I am fast I like it

  28. Shocking Realization! • When you are trying to get a child to talk, you need to talk less and wait more.

  29. Routines Teach the same words and phrases every day, then say less and less, and let the child say more and more. e.g., time to go outside …………. what time is it? e.g., Snowpants on first…………….what now? e.g., I love snack……………………..……mmm e.g., Listen! Mommy’s coming…… Listen!
