💙 Small choices, meaningful communication!

Giving your child opportunities to make simple choices can turn everyday routines into moments of learning and connection. ✨

Offering two options and giving your child time to respond encourages them to express their preferences while building communication and language skills.

And remember, responses don't always have to be spoken! A look, gesture, point, or word can all be meaningful ways to communicate.

👨‍👩‍👧 Explore this month's JTC Tip and discover how small choices can support your child's development.

💬 What's one choice your child enjoys making each day?

👂💙 ¡Los sonidos cotidianos también nos ayudan a aprender!

¿Sabías que los sonidos que escuchamos en casa pueden convertirse en oportunidades para estimular la audición y el desarrollo del lenguaje de tu hijo? ✨

Desde el ladrido de un perrito 🐶 hasta el sonido del agua, ¡cada día está lleno de oportunidades para escuchar, descubrir y aprender juntos!

Cuando escuches un sonido, prueba señalar tu oído, darle tiempo a tu hijo para escuchar y explorar juntos de dónde viene. 💛

En John Tracy Center, queremos recordarles a las familias que no necesitan actividades complicadas para apoyar el desarrollo auditivo y del lenguaje. ¡Los momentos cotidianos también cuentan!

💬 ¿Qué sonido llama más la atención de tu hijo en casa? ¡Cuéntanos en los comentarios!

👂💙 Did you know educational audiologists can help support your child's learning at school?

As Educational Audiology Week comes to an end, we're sharing an important tip from Jennifer, one of JTC's educational audiologists! 📚

Educational audiologists help address students' hearing and listening needs through hearing technology, classroom strategies, and collaboration with school teams.

💡 While not every district provides dedicated educational audiology services, families can ask about available support and request involvement during their child's IEP process.

💙 Understanding your options can help you advocate for your child's educational needs!
