Describe with details and specific examples, the connection between nurturing relationships and language development.
Share one specific experience you have had as an adult with an infant or toddler that demonstrates the interdependence of Language and Literacy Learning and Social and Emotional Development. If you do not have any experience with infants or toddlers (36 months and younger), then create a scenario that demonstrates this interdependence. (Perhaps something you can envision yourself doing in the future to link social-emotional development and language and early literacy development with a child 36 months or younger.) (Consider: have you ever made a connection with an infant or toddler through language or early literacy? Think: singing a song, playing a game, reading a book.)
