Group Details
Early literacy skills group
An early literacy group for toddlers with delayed speech and language skills is a structured, supportive environment designed to foster the foundational skills necessary for later reading and writing development. The group focuses on building critical language skills, phonological awareness, vocabulary, and early comprehension abilities, which are all key precursors to academic success in literacy.
Goals Targeted in the Early Literacy Group:
Phonological Awareness:
Rhyming: Activities that emphasize rhyming words (e.g., singing rhyming songs, clapping syllables) help children become more attuned to the sounds of language, an essential skill for reading.
Sound Segmentation and Blending: Simple activities that involve isolating the first sound in a word (e.g., “What’s the first sound in ‘dog’?”) or blending sounds together (e.g., “What word is made when you say /c/ /a/ /t/?”) help build the ability to break down and combine sounds in words, a key component of decoding when learning to read.

Vocabulary Development:
Word Recognition: Early literacy groups introduce toddlers to a rich variety of words, often through books, songs, and games. Children may be exposed to common nouns (e.g., animals, objects) and action words (e.g., jump, run), which help them expand their vocabulary and understanding of word meanings.Contextual Learning: Through interactive reading, children learn new words within the context of stories, allowing them to understand the relationship b
Print Awareness:
Understanding Print Concepts: Children are introduced to the basic features of books and print, such as recognizing that print carries meaning, understanding how to hold a book, following words from left to right, and identifying the front and back of a book.Letter Recognition: Activities may involve recognizing and naming letters, as well as understanding that letters represent sounds. Early exposure to letters can help children later connect letters to their sounds for early reading and writing development.
Early Comprehension Skills:
Story Sequencing: Children learn to retell stories and identify key events or characters. This helps them practice the ability to follow and understand narrative structures, a critical skill for later reading comprehension.Predicting Outcomes: Through interactive storytelling, children are encouraged to predict what might happen next in a story or to discuss what could happen if certain events were different. This promotes critical thinking and understanding of narrative flow.
Listening and Attention Skills:
Early literacy activities often require children to focus on a task or listen to a story for an extended period. These activities can help children develop the attention span necessary for listening to instructions, engaging in group learning, and participating in classroom activities.
Fine Motor Skills for Writing:
Although writing is typically introduced later, early literacy groups sometimes incorporate activities that promote fine motor control, such as drawing, tracing, or scribbling, which are precursors to writing letters and forming words. Art Classes
