Transfers ToCSUDescriptionThis course teaches the methods of the Hanen Centre’s “Learning Language and Loving It” research based program designed to facilitate language acquisition skills in young children. It provides students with a step-by-step approach to promoting children’s social, language and literacy development within everyday activities in early childhood settings. Students will learn how to create enriched interactive language-learning environments that include children with special needs, second language learners and those who are typically developing. This class requires students to have ongoing access to young children (any age from birth to 8) in a family child care or early childhood education program. Students will need access to a digital video camera in order to document their interactions with young children.
