6.227 LANGUAGE: Use Speech: Model "What's that?"

from The Interaction Coach Hosted by Joyce Olson

Asking for information is an important function of communication. Children learn how to ask questions from your examples. When you model the question and then the answer, they learn they can go to you to get information. Today's activity: When you hear a noise, act like you're listening carefully and ask, "What's that?" Use the hands-up gesture along with the question. Look around to show you are trying to figure it out. When you find the answer, name it. If you don't know, model the gesture and words, "I don't know."
