The purpose of the lessons is to strengthen listening skills and to provide various methods to encourage young learners to answer questions orally and to enjoy communicating with others. The questions incorporate three basic techniques to encourage children to interact with a speaker.

• Yes or No Answers: (Appropriate for verbal and non-verbal students.)
• Choosing Between Two Answers: (Excellent for children who have difficulty with word retrieval)
• Sentence Completion: (Good practice in using inferences and associations to improve word retrieval.)

All three techniques give excellent practice in stimulating receptive and expressive language in young children. Each reproducible lesson has a student worksheet with three pages of lesson plans.

Includes: 80 pages
