First Published in 2005. This book builds on the success of Language Development - Circle time sessions to improve communication skills by extending the Spirals programme into the home. All practitioners recognise the importance of family support, and parents and carers often appreciate being given a raft of good ideas for supplementary games and activities that will help their child in nursery and school. This handbook contains a variety of play-based activities that support the key language skills being developed in school, but that also stand alone as ways of having fun while consolidating language skills at home (and in the park, supermarket or walking to school). There is a clear structure and progression of ideas, with supporting line drawings to act as prompts, and a simple record-keeping system to support home-school communication. This is an invaluable book for early years practitioners; professionals working with children in a clinic or one to one setting; teachers, SLTs and teaching assistants in Key Stage I; and SENCOs working with children in KS2 who have speech and language difficulties.
