Your child needs to learn a variety of types of words—verbs, nouns, adjectives—so they can combine them when they’re ready to make 2-word combinations. Verbs (action words) can be used to describe or request. At this level, you need to do lots of modeling. Your child needs to see and hear the word used frequently before they’ll start to use a word. Today’s activity: Focus on modeling one new verb each week. Keep using the older target words as you add a new one each week.
