Children count on adults to make sense of the world for them. Talking is one of the ways we do this. When adults are not precise in their communication, children don't learn. Choose Your Words makes the connection between the way adults speak and the way children act. It provides clear language that helps children understand the rules of behavior and expectations of culture and classroom. This new edition (previously titled Use Your Words) is infused with current research on communicating with young children and their families; discusses the effects of media and technology on the way we communicate with young children; and includes tips on how to help young children whose home language is not English.
