SUMMARY:Building Blocks of Communication / Working with Providers and RMHS Programs
DESCRIPTION:We will  review definitions of expressive/ receptive language\, what verbal and nonverbal communication looks like\, and language development research. Throughout the course\, we will discuss strategies to support language development in early childhood\, and in contrast\, common adult behaviors that are not conducive to language learning and their effects on children’s communication. We will review strategies that can be helpful during group classroom activities and those that teachers can implement when interacting one-one with children. Teachers will have the opportunity to come up with functional target words that will support expressive and receptive language development across daily classroom routines. Participants will receive a certificate of completion with the following credit category : Child Growth\, Development\, and Learning (CGDL) \n\nWe will also review the early childhood programs at Rocky Mountain Human Services including Early Intervention\, Denver Early Steps\, and Developmental Monitoring. We will discuss how screenings are used at RMHS to identify developmental delays and social emotional-challenges and how classrooms can partner with us to sign up for screening events. Teachers will have the chance to learn more about push-in\, pull-out and hybrid methods of intervention and their benefits and drawbacks will be explored. Finally\, we will consider the importance of teacher-provider collaboration for carry-over of learned skills into the classroom and beyond. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister here
