Following 1 & 2 Step Directions – Understanding of Language

(0)
Support children’s understanding of spoken language with this comprehensive, visual speech and language resource designed for use at home, in school and during therapy sessions. This full activity pack provides structured opportunities to practise following 1-step and 2-step directions, understanding colour, size and positional concepts, using first/then and before/after language, and developing the ability to process increasingly complex spoken information. The resource has been designed to be flexible and supportive. Children can use picture cues, repetition, gestures and simplified language where helpful, and adults can gradually increase the level of challenge as the child becomes more confident. What’s included: simple 1-step direction activities 2-step directions using objects and actions colour directions size directions colour + size directions positional language including in, on, under and next to First / Then activities and visual board Before / After activities and visual supports reusable visual support cards interactive cut-and-use activities Teddy’s Picnic Feed the Monster Pack the School Bag Dressing Up House activity Farm activity Beach activity Treasure Hunt real-life / no-print activities differentiation guidance observation and planning sheets session notes The interactive games give children opportunities to practise understanding directions in a more engaging, hands-on way, using familiar themes such as dressing up, school bags, farms, beaches and treasure hunts. The pack also includes practical guidance on how to make activities easier or more challenging by changing the amount of language, number of choices, visual support and information-carrying words. A printable observation sheet and session notes page are included to help adults record how the child responded, what level of support was helpful and what to practise next.
