Children use their language to convey what they know. Teachers are responsible for presenting a
topic and then measuring whether a child has learned it or not. However, if a child does not respond
or is incorrect, how do we know if:

 the topic is unfamiliar to the student
 the student knows but cannot communicate his response effectively

 the student does not know
It all looks the same right? In each instance the student has either not answered or answered
incorrectly. Language-rich activities provide support so students readily share what they know.

The majority of students who receive speech therapy spend thirty minutes or one hour per week with
their speech therapist. This equates to three percent of a child’s academic day. That means that the
majority of a child’s time is spent with her parents and her teacher. We also know that the more
ways (multi-modal) and times (opportunities) a child practices a skill, the more she will be successful.

By using classroom themes we not only access vocabulary topics, but we also provide a way for each
student to practice newly acquired communication skills on a topic that she is familiar with. Plus, the
homework provides greater communication opportunities through interactions with the parent.
