SUMMARY:Getting Ready for Big School - communication skills group program ...
DESCRIPTION:Moving into big school is a big deal! Children have to learn a variety of new skills very quickly as they move into their new class and school structure. \nIn Kindy\, children often need to become proficient quickly with news-telling\, reading and spelling (including phonological awareness)\, and asking and answering questions. Children learn at different paces and in different ways. We are offering a school holiday group designed to nurture the communication skills of children transitioning to kindergarten. \nSessions will be conducted by Master of Speech and Language Pathology students and by Certified Practising Speech Pathologists. The group will be modelled on a classroom environment to assist with children’s transition from pre-school. \nThe group will be activity and play-based and focus on pre-literacy and language skills for children starting school. The program includes key aspects such as learning classroom rules\, news-telling\, story-time\, and group games. Each activity targets skills fundamental to learning\, including early reading\, inferencing\, communicating ideas effectively\, listening\, and appropriately interacting with peers. This group is well-suited to children aged 4-6 starting school this year. You do not need to be an existing client to attend. \nThe Group program will include: \n\nPhonological awareness (syllabification\, rhyming\, letter-to-sound knowledge)\nUnderlying skills for literacy (reading and spelling);\nNews-telling skills;\nListening skills for the classroom; and\nAsking and answering questions in the classroom environment.\nGross Motor skill development with a paediatric Physiotherapist\n\nPlease note that the curriculum for the group is adapted to each new cohort. If there is a large discrepancy in ages and areas of need\, activities will be tailored to ensure each child receives individual attention. \nYou will receive a short report of the activities and how your child enjoyed the group at the end of the groups. \n\n\n\nDates:\nWednesday 12th January to Friday 14th January 2021\n\n\nTimes: \n  \nCost: \n\n9.30am – 11.30am each day \n  \n$225.00 for all sessions \n\n\n\n  \nLocation: \n\nMQ Health Speech and Hearing Clinic\nAustralian Hearing Hub\nGround Floor\, 16 University Avenue\, Macquarie University (next to Piccolo Me Café)\n\n\nCampus map:\nhttp://www.mq.edu.au/campus-map\n\n\nParking:\nFree parking is available on level B2 under the building\n\n\nPreparation:\nTake your child to the toilet when you arrive.  The toilets are located next to the lifts.\n\n\nWhat to bring:\nA drink bottle and a piece of fruit\n\n\nPrior SP assessments:\nPlease bring along any speech pathology assessments your child has had in the past.\n\n\nDo I need to stay?\nYou are not required to stay in the room for the group.
