Video - Parent

Description

"This introductory video looks at life inside child-care settings where early childhood educators use the Hanen approach to promote interaction, language learning, and emergent literacy in young children. The vital role of the teacher in helping children learn to communicate is discussed and the following guidelines to promote language learning are demonstrated: 1) Get every child in on the act: observe, wait, listen, and follow the child's lead; 2) Provide information to promote learning: label, expand, model, explain, and describe; and 3) Let language lead the way to literacy, foster a lifetime love of learning through books. The goal of this program is to help children reach their potential as playmates, learners, and successful, confident communicators." -Child Development Media, Inc.
