Language, Literacy Interventions for Engaging Young Children from Barbara Culatta
More information about Medical:
Medicine is the science and practice of establishing the diagnosis, prognosis, treatment, and prevention of disease.
Medicine encompasses a variety of health care practices evolved to maintain and restore health by the prevention and treatment of illness.
Contemporary medicine applies biomedical sciences, biomedical research, genetics, and medical technology to diagnose, treat, and prevent injury and disease,
typically through pharmaceuticals or surgery, but also through therapies as diverse as psychotherapy, external splints and traction, medical devices, biologics, and ionizing radiation, amongst others.
Medicine has been around for thousands of years, during most of which it was an art (an area of skill and knowledge) frequently having connections to the religious and
philosophical beliefs of local culture. For example, a medicine man would apply herbs and say prayers for healing, or an ancient philosopher and physician would apply bloodletting according to the theories of humorism.
In recent centuries, since the advent of modern science, most medicine has become a combination of art and science (both basic and applied, under the umbrella of medical science).
While stitching technique for sutures is an art learned through practice, the knowledge of what happens at the cellular and molecular level in the tissues being stitched arises through science.

Join language and literacy expert Barbara Culatta, PhD, CCC-SLP, and learn fun and engaging play, arts, and movement-based activities to teach and facilitate children’s language, literacy and social interaction skills. These effective intervention techniques allow children (pre-k through 2nd grade levels) to acquire and use skills to share ideas, feelings and experiences through reading, writing and oral language. You will acquire resources and effective techniques to develop language and literacy skills in children who function at various developmental levels, exhibit different needs, and display characteristics associated with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Language-Learning Deficits (LLD) and Attention-Deficit / Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). You will also learn ways to address the needs of children with language differences, access free materials in English as well as Spanish, and influence the way children interact and communicate in playful language- and literacy-rich contexts. The instructional approach arranges for excellent whole group instruction while also providing intense and differentiated instruction for children who struggle.
You will walk away with the skills necessary to:
- Dramatically increase comprehension, vocabulary, phonological awareness, decoding and writing performance
- Use playful strategies to strengthen language, literacy and conversational skills
- Provide opportunities for children to use language to share experiences and ideas
- Engage children in conversational exchanges that promote language, literacy and social interaction skills
- Meet the language and literacy needs of children with ASD, LLD, ADHD and language differences
- Facilitate interactions among children as they share ideas and engage in playful reading and writing contexts
- Arrange for children to encounter personally relevant reasons to read, write and use oral language to communicate
- Engage, motivate and build confidence in children as they acquire language and literacy skills
