Prevention is the best medicine as well as the best learning or educational approach too. Regarding language and other sensory development – children’s processing skills can be strengthened or improved (for at-risk children) and enriched (for not-at-risk children) – this can happen simultaneously in a classroom that is using evidence-based methods for child development and learning.

Come out and enjoy an interactive presentation/workshop. You’ll be engaged in activities that help you learn more about classroom methods for improving sensory processing skills (visual, auditory, touch, movement) for spoken language skills (phoneme and phonological awareness) to build a solid foundation and readiness for later instruction in academic/written language skills (reading and spelling).
