Review the key points you learned throughout this lesson:

  • As a new listener, your baby needs you to help them learn that sounds, voices, and events around them have meaning.
  • When you use the Be a Director LSL strategy, you purposefully point out sounds to your baby to help them pay attention.
  • When you use the Be a Bird Dog LSL strategy, you put meaning to the sounds, voices, and events that you and your baby experience together.
  • Using these strategies together will become a natural part of the day with your baby. Each time you use them, you build lasting connections in their brain for a future of listening, talking, and reading.
