    • Education for Kids

In this episode, Liz hosts Em as an industry expert for Liz’s for an insightful interview specifically designed for her  The Paediatric Practitioner - Knowledge Corner course members. 
They dive into essential topics related to working with children who have language differences. Em begins by explaining how to identify if a child has language differences and shares practical methods for informally screening the children they work with. The discussion emphasises the importance of determining whether a child needs a referral, which is a critical step in providing appropriate support.
Em also highlights the significance of using neuro-affirming language, which respects and acknowledges the unique neurodiversity of each child. This approach helps create a supportive and inclusive environment. To assist practitioners, Em introduces simple receptive and expressive language screeners that can be easily implemented in various settings.
Moreover, Em offers valuable strategies for integrating language into sessions in a way that is both effective and engaging for children. She discusses how to scale back language complexity to accommodate children with language differences, ensuring that communication is accessible and clear. Em stresses the importance of making instructions simple for kids with compromised language skills, providing practical examples and tips to enhance understanding and participation.
Throughout the episode, Liz and Em provide actionable insights and tools that practitioners can apply immediately to better support children with language differences, ensuring they receive the attention and resources they need to thrive.
This episode is full of gold nuggets that all health professionals that are working with children can call on. This will help health professionals not only determine if a child may need a referral but better support and collaboratively work on holistic goals for children. 
This bonus episode has been released to celebrate the doors opening to Liz’s The Paediatric Practitioner - The Knowledge Corner and Em’s Preschool Language Academy.
