Ten Teaching Times Without Toys
“Ten Teaching Times Without Toys” is intended to encourage parents and caregivers to recognize natural language opportunities in common household routines and/or inexpensive activities. Reducing reliance on specialized or costly materials and manipulatives increases carryover and generalization. These objectives align with Principles of Auditory Verbal therapy, particularly principles 4 through 7. (4-Guide and coach parents to become the primary facilitators of their child’s listening and spoken language development. 5-Guide and coach parents to create environments that support listening for the acquisition of spoken language throughout the child’s daily activities. 6-Guide and coach parents to help their child integrate listening and spoken language in all aspects of the child’s life. 7- Guide and coach parents to use natural developmental patterns of audition, speech, language, cognition, and communication.)
- Explore potentially hidden opportunities for language learning during a typical day or week
- Discuss ways to increase or decrease complexity of language targets in similar settings and activities
- Establish and maintain habits that foster a child’s language growth
