Speech and Language in the Early Years is an accessible resource, packed full of practical ideas and techniques to support speech and language development in young children.

• Activities and strategies designed for busy educators to dip in and out of as part of everyday practice, promoting speech and language development as well as supporting those with speech, language, and communication needs
• Templates and techniques for reflective practice, supporting the creation of language-rich environments and encouraging mindful communication
• Chapters spanning from birth to the transition to school, each exploring different areas of the learning environment

Offering readers the opportunity to extend their skills and confidence in their practice, this book is an essential resource for early years practitioners looking to facilitate quality interactions with the children in their care.
