Collaborative Journeys: Reflecting and Growing Together in Early Years. Topic: Voices before words: nurturing early communication skills in the early years

A CPD session designed for early years practitioners focused on the fundamentals of communication and pre-verbal skills. We will explore key concepts such as non-verbal cues, gestures, a total communication approach and the role of play in communication development. Through practical strategies, you’ll learn how to create an environment that encourages expressive communication and fosters meaningful connections with children. As children grow their experiences, relationships and surroundings fundamentally shape their future. Lancashire Educational Psychology Service are hosting a range of free events for early years practitioners to support them on a range of topics that they have identified as being areas of interest. Events will be in two parts with the first part being a learning development session followed by a coaching session which will offer the opportunity for delegates to reflect using hypothetical case study examples and anonymous case discussion with Educational Psychologists. We will also explore the implementation of what has been learned and to share good practice with practitioners from other settings. Events will take place online using Microsoft Teams to increase accessibility for early years practitioners across the county. It is expected that members of staff attending these events will disseminate the information to their wider staff team.
