Hi, there is lots of reading for
EYMP 5 on Talking Point
Page 412 of the Collins Level 3 candidate handbook 2011 list the positive effects of adult support as being;
- children's self-confidence develops
- increase children's self-esteem and enhance their well-being
- improve children's ability to interact socially with others
- develop children's ability to express their feelings and manage their behaviour
- enrich children's involvement in speaking and listening activities
- reduce the number of referrals for specialist speech, language and communication support.
Pages 298+ of the Heinemann handbook look specifically at the language skills, social interaction, behaviour and emotional development.
QUOTE:
Speech, language and communication skills
Very quickly, if high-quality support is given, children can show progress in their speech, language and communication skills. This means that working with children can be very rewarding and parents often delight in the improvement that their children are showing.
Social interaction
At the heart of social interaction is children's ability to communicate. This means that positive support can quickly make children more outgoing and also confident in their interactions. many practitioners report that once children have more speech and language, they are able to play more easily with other children.
Behaviour
many children who are finding it difficult to communicate and speak will show aggressive, uncooperative and frustrated behaviour. Being able to communicate effectively can make an enormous difference to children's behaviour. parents also note that when they are spending more time communicating with their children, their children show less attention-seeking behaviour.
Emotional development
Positive adult support also helps children's emotional development. Not only do children become more confident, they also find through words, ways of controlling their emotions and expressing their needs.
