Webinar

Teaching vocabulary: Why, how, and when?

 

Mode: Virtual (asynchronous)

Directed to teachers of early childhood and primary education

Psychopedagogists and speech therapists

   Language skills are fundamental for cognitive and psychosocial development. In addition to being the foundation for core academic skills such as reading and writing, they play a crucial role in social and emotional development.

When there are difficulties in language development, not only are academic performance issues observed, but the ability to make friendships and to adjust social behavior to the context is often affected as well.
