A key ingredient of early receptive language is listening and remembering multi-step directions.
By 2-3 years, typically developing children can follow two part directions, and by 4-5 years they can follow longer directions.* Furthermore, following oral directions requires listeners to attend carefully to language, and is one of the first steps to developing robust Phonological Awareness.**
These Cue the Move! Cards are a fun and interactive way to help clients improve attentive listening and auditory memory, and start them on the path to phonological awareness. It’s a bonus for those kids who love to move their bodies!
Directions
- Take turns giving each other directions, using the pictures for visual reminders as needed.
- Start with one direction and build to two, then three.
- Fade using the cards until they can recall the directions from oral directions only.
- Bear in mind that your clients may take a long time moving from following two directions to three.
- You can also use these cards to work on infinitive to, as in “I want you to . . .” (touch your nose, wave your arms etc.)
