Adapting children's books can help young children participate as active rather than passive learners in language and literacy instruction. In this episode of the Speech Link Podcast, Char Boshart, MA, CCC-SLP, is joined by Lorraine Maida, MA, CCC-SLP, to discuss how to incorporate storytelling and songs into language instruction with young children.
Lorraine explains the developmental sequence of oral narrative growth in children and describes how to modify books so children take a more active role. She also covers criteria for choosing books for reading and storytelling, primary concepts to emphasize during storytelling, and an important consideration when collaborating with teachers on storytelling, along with practical activities to try in your own practice.
