I'd never come across the term "planted adult", but it is a good one.<br />As well when I have been the primary caregiver for a group of children, I have found mealtime and snack times to be a great opportunity for listening, and creating dialogue.<br />I was able to take a good course called "Language, Learning Language and Loving It", by a group called Hanen, here in Canada, and it was helpful in clearly describing the ways children learn to communicate, and how as adults we can facilitate this.<br />The very main way they say is to listen and follow childrens' lead.<br />Thanks for an interesting post.<br />BrendaMullin Avenue Workshophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09489785153205822301noreply@blogger.com
