Talk to Me, Baby! Early Language Support for Infants

This session will include high-level early language support in infant classrooms, through a deeper understanding of the Infant CLASS tool and high-quality teacher-child interactions. Participants will practice realistic strategies for implementing self talk, imitating and initiating sounds or words; modeling turn-taking, and effectively using toys for expansion and extension of language. This training will show how early language support strategies connect other infant CLASS dimensions, to support overall infant learning and care in both younger and older infants.
