Oral language is crucial to a child's literacy development including listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills.

This non-credit workshop is interactive, hands-on, and provides teacher candidates with their own hand-made "Primary Oral Language Kit". This kit is full of exciting activities and ideas to use in the classroom; the kit is great for fostering conversation and oral communication.
