Early childhood is a time of tremendous brain development. In fact, 90% of brain growth and development occurs by age five. Despite this massive amount of brain growth, children cannot learn everything at once. In this training we will focus on communication and language skills that develop in the first 5 years, the brain’s role in the development of

these skills, and how to support them. We will discuss specific communication milestones, when they typically emerge and how this relates to brain development; learn strategies for supporting early communication skills; and gain an understanding of how multi-language learning occurs.
