Infants share their needs and interests, as well as learn from social interactions within their everyday routines and activities. Recognizing children’s early communication signals is key to supporting their future development. Children learn about language and how it is used in their environment even prior to understanding and using words themselves. Join us as we explore the importance of early communication development and the initial stages of language expansion. We will share milestones that identify typical and atypical development along with resources which provide a deeper exploration of this topic.
Objectives:
*Identify at least 12 early developing gestures that are used by young children to share and gather information
*Describe early sound development milestones and identify red flags for atypical speech sound development
*Provide strategies for explaining how vocabulary and word combinations develop to families
*Discuss similarities and differences in communication development for Dual Language Learners

• Logical sequence
• Meaningful use of materials and
engagement with others
• Predictable
• Opportunities for repetition
Activities and Routines

Heads up – Here’s a Handout!
34. • There is slow vocabulary growth from 12 to 18
months. A vocabulary burst occurs at about 19
months when children begin to combine words.
• The richest moments for early language learning
are when the child is sharing attention, affect,
and intentions; and the caregiver talks about the
child s focus of attention.
Using and Understanding Words
34
37. Having Conversations
• Children are learning the rules of grammar
to form sentences from 2 to 5 years.
• Children learn how to connect sentences
in conversation and story telling.
• There is so much more in the upcoming
webinar!
