Module 4: Oral Language
Did you know that oral language is the foundation on which all emergent literacy and later reading is built and supports children’s math, science, social and self-regulation skills? Join us as we discover how to plan and implement instruction that encourages children to talk and that helps them practice syntax, conversation, pragmatics, and listening comprehension.
Session 1: What is Oral Language, Why Is It Important, How Do Children Develop Syntax, and How Do I Teach Syntax?
Session 2: Teaching Oral Language Through Conversations and Supporting Peer-to-Peer Language Interactions
Session 3: Oral Language and Listening Comprehension, Considerations for English Learner Students and Students with Disabilities, and Additional Resources
