Tda 2.1 Communication And Language Analysis

In the video The Play Therapist’s Language of Change, Dr. Landreth explains the ways that the therapist should express language to the child. Dr. Landreth explains the importance of verbal tracking rather than using talk therapy with the child. The important points made in the video were the examples the audience gave about things children would say. For example, when children come into the playroom they may things like, “Can I leave? Can my brother come in?

Playtime is should be fun and exciting for every child. However, some children are rejected from the others and they do not know why. The video, The Child Who is Rejected (Educational Productions Inc., 1993), explains why a child is rejected and how a teacher can help the child. Some children could be rejected from the others because they are aggressive, look different, speak different language, do not know how to take turn, and lacking in communication skills. As educators, we need to become a bridge between children and shows them what is going on, help them to communicate each other, assist them to solve their conflicts: we should not judge who is right and wrong or solve their problems.

Explain the importance to children’s holistic development of Speech, language and communication This development is important for children’s holistic development as this will help the children to socialise and help them express what they like and need, this will get them to have more sense about the world. If the child can communicate this will help them with their confident and self-esteem levels as they can talk about how they feel.it is important for children to use their own language skills and not to listen to other all the time and this could put their development back. Adults should praise children a lot so they have the encouragement try new things but it is important you adults to give them feedback so that they can learn from right and wrong.

The Victorian Government (2023) elaborates that this gives EAL/D learners to communicate meaning through multiple modes such as this. This form of play enhances their writing development as it encourages them to engage in pretend talk, which requires them to exhibit strong language and literacy skills (The Victorian Government, 2023). According to the Victorian Government (2023), sociodramatic play allows learners to develop skills like problem solving and creative thinking. Within classrooms, teachers can use written texts as a stimulus to create their play scenario. Teachers could also even instruct children to create their scenario first, then act it out.

Even if you’re not involved in their play it offers a sense of reassurance to children. You can also support a play based approach to learning by encouraging children to play with things they may not have played with before e.g playing with the resource yourself alongside the child. If a child sees what you can do with the resource then they are more likely to eventually participate along side you, copying what you are doing. 4.3 Evaluate different materials and equipment to support play based learning opportunities for children in their early years

They can be directed specifically to address individual areas such as speaking and listening, or can be used more generally to support all areas as they are interlinked. Play is an ideal way to engage children to communicate with others, as they can interact in a non- pressured environment. You can plan for, monitor and assess different areas of learning using play As they grow older, children will still need to be given the chance to enjoy activities and equipment that support their play, creativity and learning across the programme of teaching and learning. It is important that they are given opportunities to use their own initiative, work with others and develop in all areas. These can often be used to best effect when children are introduced to new ideas in practical, imaginative and stimulating ways.

When arranging activities for play based learning within early years provision there can be barriers towards it from taking place. Before the week begins, planning is needed. When planned activities are prepared resources are needed too. Resources can become a barrier towards play. This is because the resources that were needed were not available to be used.

This critique analyzes an article written by Ruth A Pike: “Understanding Influences of Play on Second Language Learning: A Microethnographic View in One Head Start Preschool Classroom”. This article analyzes a study done over a fifty day period, assessing students oral language development and interactions of the English language through the use of play in the classroom. This paper discusses different aspects needed for improvement of the study conducted, as well as the strengths and weaknesses of the article. Article Critique: Understanding Influences of Play on Second Language Learning: A Microethnographic View in One Head Start Preschool Classroom

Play with adults and peers bolsters language development because it encourages greater language use. For instance, the amount of time children talk to their peers during play in preschool positively relates to their vocabulary size in kindergarten (Dickinson and Moreton 1991), Finally, play might be important

Through this interaction children will begin to gather knowledge and experiences that will enhance their cognitive development. Without play children will learn certain concepts yet, children need play to develop and make sense of the knowledge they are

Play is a spontaneous and positive process. In this process, children’s abilities of imagination and creativity can be developed and stimulated by using their hand and intelligence to achieve their goals which usually do not be restricted and organized. Play is an essential aspect for children. Children can keep highly concentration when children are immersing in play. In the meanwhile, play can be the trigger for the development of children’s cognition, physics, and social-emotional.

According to Bergen &Fromberg (2006), play is important to the optimum development of children. Unfortunately, though there is abundant research evidence showing that play supports young children’s social, emotional, physical and cognitive development, it has often ignored or addressed

An overview of play Play, when viewed from a point of study, puts forth many insights about the way in which children think, learn, process and foster connections with the world around them. Play has been linked to children’s cognitive development. Berk says that play offers children the opportunity to learn about one’s self, about others, and the environment around. Children engaged in play develop many social and emotional concepts which may not be otherwise achieved in other setups.

Early childhood educators are faced with expanded academic expectations that have forced them to devise ways that will enhance effective learning in pre schools. Play is one of the activities adopted to promote effective learning in preschool classrooms. The purpose of this study was to examine the use of play in oral skills development among pre-school children. The main objective of the study was to examine use of play in oral skills development among the pre-school children. The specific objective of the study was to establish the teachers’ understanding of the use of play and how it affect the child's oral skills development.

The process of play through different stages such as parallel play, solitary play and collaborative play are essential in the education process and development in children. My classroom will encompass structured and unstructured play to help students learn and develop. Play will include this such as children working together in playing an educational game, doing theater together and art. Less structured play as free playtime inside or outside of the classroom will be used daily. During play I will observe my students to see how they interact with each other, how they are developing physically and emotional and use these observations to develop the best possible educational environment.
