This is a workshop for staff working with children in both Early Years and School Age. The Blanks Model is a widely used model to help us think about the types of questions and language we use when talking with children.
By attending this workshop we hope you will:
- Understand the Language of Learning Model (Blank’s theory)
- Be able to identify the level of language a child can understand and be able to set appropriate targets where you have concerns.
- Be able to adapt your language levels so that children understand what they are being asked
- Implement strategies to support language skills at a universal and targeted level in your school/setting
Reasons to attend:
The child you support:
- Has difficulties understanding spoken language e.g. following directions or answering questions.
- May have additional difficulties in expressing themselves.
