Ideas to Improve Expressive Language and Listening Comprehension
• To increase vocabulary while reading, talk about vocabulary words that you are reading with your child and have him/her practice saying the words.
• Talk about how vocabulary words are similar and/or different at home. Some kids may need some prompting or may to look at pictures of the items.
• Talk about and have your child talk about grouping things together. Have him/her name three animals, kinds of drinks, kinds of furniture etc.
• Encourage your child to tell about a movie he has watched, T.V. show he has watched, his school day, and/or a trip and give him prompts to increase details.
• Read to your child and ask him/her wh- questions about what you have read. Focus your questions around the important pieces of information for comprehension, such as character (who?), setting (where?), problem (what happened?), solution (how?) etc. Ask him the questions while you are reading and at the end of the book. For example, directly after the main character is mentioned in the book, ask, “who is the main character in this story?”
• Use the Expanding Expression Tool to increase his ability to talk about objects and words in details. This tool may ultimately be able to improve expressing himself in detail as well as vocabulary and comparing vocabulary.
• Ask your child to tell you the steps during everyday tasks, for example, what do we need to do in order to get ready for bed? Tell me what to do when you get up in the morning before school?
• Ask your child simple “how” questions. How do you make a snowman? How do you ride bike? Or how do you make a pizza?
