Here is the email from Felicity following last night's hui:
Thank you to everyone who attended last nights hui with Dr Jayne Newbury. I have attached the slides from her PowerPoint presentation. I will continue working with Jayne especially around oral language groups for N.E children who enter school with delayed oral language skills. If you would like to find out more best practice info about oral language groups please let me know. If you didn't manage to make it to the hui last night the PowerPoint has some very thought/ conversation provoking research around oral language which you may like to discuss at a staff/ team meeting. The biggest takeaway I got from last night was the importance of maximising every opportunity to have those rich dialogic conversations with all children but in particular those children with delayed oral language, being very intentional in providing opportunities for extended conversation.
It was also great to see so many people having a look at the STAR NZ programme. I have attached some brief information about the programme as requested, I am happy to go over it in more depth with anyone who would like that. STAR NZ provides parents with strategies on how to have rich dialogic conversations around books.
