Note sull'episodio

In this episode of the Sensory Classroom podcast, Jordan and Ali Battye delve into the fascinating world of Gestalt language processing. They discuss how this alternative route to language acquisition differs from traditional methods, emphasising the importance of recognising unique communication styles in children. The conversation highlights the joy and emotional connection that can be found in language learning, the role of AAC systems, and the various stages of language development. Ali shares insights on how music and emotion can enhance learning, and they address common misconceptions about echolalia. This episode serves as a valuable resource for parents, educators, and therapists working with neurodiverse children.

This punchy 35 minute episode is packed to the brim with useful insights and tips to bring in to your own home and classroom.
