QLD 0-3yrs Introduction to Language
‘By merely ‘living’ and without any conscious effort, the individual absorbs from the environment even a complex cultural achievement like language …’ Montessori, M (1994) The Formation of Man. Clio Press. p.64
This interactive workshop is invaluable for anyone working in Montessori educational environments and wanting to use the Montessori approach and materials. Learn how language ability is determined by inner ‘programming’ but is helped or hindered by the environment and how the acquisition of language for young children has two phases, pre-linguistic and linguistic.
There will be opportunities to explore the guidelines and activities that aid the development of language and for practice with the materials for the 0-3yrs age group.
