The key factors that affect a childs speech language and communication development and evidence to support and explain how important these factors are?
The areas of learning within the setting and the activities and opportunities that develop speech, language and communication. give real life examples?
Any help with these two questions would be appreciated

Hi, this is based on your setting or work placements own practice.

Areas of learning could be a book area, messy play trays, table tops, floor space, outdoor grassed, ramp areas, benches, large play equipment?

The activities planned might be construction - building bricks, jigsaws, collage, Physical - climbing frames, running games, storytimes, puppet play

Each of these has the potential to support children's SL and communication by bringing together pairs or larger groups to chat, explore resources, share own language and personal experiences, understand turn taking, discover new words, experiment with body language, facial features as a way of communicating preferences, needs, feelings & emotions.

The key factors listed in Unit 068 or aka EYMP 5 are
• the physical environment
• staff roles andresponsibilities
• training needs andopportunities
• views of the child
• appropriate involvement of carers

The areas of learning as detailed in your home nation's framework might also help - eg if you work in England the EYFS will provide evidence.

EYMP 5 on talking point will help more
