|---|---|---|
| Sharing a familiar book e.g. a pop-up or a picture book | When the child is familiar with a book and the possible answers to likely questions point to pictures and ask questions using a short phrase e.g. 'Where's Spot?', 'Who's that?', What's that?'. You want a two word answer e.g. 'under bed' etc. | If possible work in a comfortable place so that the child associates this activity as relaxing and fun Remember to allow processing time for the child to answer questions. Only ask questions you know the child can answer or the experience is stressful for the child and the child may refuse to cooperate. |
| Digital photos of school life Digital camera Book of photos taken at school If a digital camera is not available use ordinary cameras and photos. | If you are using an ordinary camera for the photos you may need to keep a written record of photos taken. It is easy to muddle up what you have already photographed and what you want to photograph! | |
| Home corner play Dressing up cloths Cooking toys Dolls Tea set | Remember to give lots of processing time to answer questions - and only to ask questions the child can answer! |
