Volume 1 of teach2talk’s™ Prepositions! series of
videos helps teach children to understand and use a variety of critical
prepositions, such as above, below, on, off, under, next to, in front
of, behind, between, before, after, around, as well as many others.
Our Prepositions! videos teach using targeted live action
video modeling, featuring real children between the ages of five and
fifteen. The children model the prepositions first in isolation and
then in sentences to help build sentence structure. Humor, costumes and
songs are used to keep your child engaged and provide additional
reinforcement.
Volume 1 of our Prepositions! series is appropriate for
any child who has not yet mastered the understanding and use of
prepositions or who confuses these concepts as well as children who are
just starting to learn and use prepositions. Children typically begin
to develop their use of prepositions around two years of age.
Prepositions! was created by a speech language pathologist who
has extensive experience teaching children prepositions and other
speech and language concepts, including through the use of video
modeling, which research has shown to be an effective learning
methodology for many children.
teach2talk Co-Founder Jenny McCarthy, Mom:
My son Evan had a
terrible time figuring out prepositions. It really held him back from
following directions and from putting together longer sentences to
really express himself. I had therapists coming over every day to help
teach Evan, but always wished there was more I could do. Our
Prepositions! video is something you use on your own schedule as a great
boost to traditional therapy.
teach2talk Co-Founder Sarah Clifford Scheflen, M.S., CCC-SLP, Speech Language Pathologist:
Prepositions
are important building blocks for every child’s functional
communication system, and allow children to utilize more complex
sentence structure. However, most of the children I work with have
difficulty with these critical concepts - our Prepositions! video helps
parents and therapists teach them.
