Children learn to talk through interaction including involvement in
many thousands of conversations with adults and other children. These
conversations provide the framework for exploring relationships,
understanding the world, and learning – in its widest sense. This
book explores how children learn to communicate using language, how
they use language to learn and the role of adults in the process. It
examines how adults can support children to learn by involving them
in positive interactions, meaningful conversation and by helping them
play, explore and talk with each other. The book includes: examples
of children and adults talking and learning together case studies of
successful approaches that support language and learning in early
years settings points for reflection and practical tasks Informed by
the author’s own experience working with young children, families
and practitioners, and from his involvement in the England-wide Every
Child a Talker (ECaT) project, it links key research findings with
successful practice to inspire practitioners to develop skills when
talking with children, influence how adults plan for talk in settings
and gain insight into how language develops in the home.
