Our practitioners are highly skilled at interacting with children, from encouraging our babies to make good eye contact, gurgle, babble and point to aiding our children to extend their sentences, modelling new descriptive words to expand vocabulary.
Due to our superb understanding of child linguistic development, our children become confident and inquisitive communicators. Through using a narrative teaching strategy alongside a rich language environment, plus ‘Open Ended Questioning’ our practitioners support our children’s curiosity to learn and use new words in their play.
We make Circle Time and Small Communication Groups fun, singing nursery rhythms alongside actions, rhyming and alliteration. Our children surprise us, all the time, with how readily they learn and communicate.
“Children readily engage in conversation. Staff question skilfully, extending children's thinking and speaking skills effectively”
