Language Learning in Everyday Moments: Supporting Basic Concepts Through Meaningful Experiences

Thursday August 27, 2026 1:30pm - 2:30pm CDT

Meeting Room 1

Language grows through connection. In this session, speech-language pathologists Winter Bengert Siman and Barbara Wilson will share practical ways to support the development of basic concepts and vocabulary through play, routines, storytelling, shared experiences, and everyday conversations. Grounded in a strengths-based approach and informed by their work alongside educators, families, and communities across Saskatchewan, this presentation will offer simple strategies for embedding language learning into the moments that already exist throughout the day. Participants will leave with ideas they can use immediately to foster communication, participation, and learning in natural, meaningful ways.
