The important thing to remember10 Expressive Language Activities when reading books with your child is to ask OPEN ENDED questions. This takes some practice but the best way to help children talk more is to ask them a question where they generate their own answers. For example, “what is she doing?” “How is he feeling?” “What’s happening in this picture?”. These are open ended questions versus yes or no questions or questions with one word answers. ksnyder110 https://padlet.com/ksnyder110/lch7ehaww7ap/wish/162431054 2017-03-24 14:40:24 UTC https://padlet.com/ksnyder110/lch7ehaww7ap/wish/162431054 ksnyder110 https://padlet.com/ksnyder110/lch7ehaww7ap/wish/162431607 When targeting expressive language through activities or toys, always remember the following points:
