Pulling it all together (Page 1 of 4)

Think about these questions as you watch this video of VPK instructors working with students to increase their language skills.

What were some of the things the teacher/instructor said that extended her conversation with her child?

When the teacher/instructor is doing the lesson on “What did you do this weekend?” think about some ways you have taught similar lessons and how this helped children learn about decontextualized language.

As you watch the teacher/instructor read her book There’s an Alligator Under My Bed, listen carefully to her “child-friendly” definition for the word "fresh." Write her definition.

To begin the video, press the "play" button.
