Building Blocks for Communication Reviews

"A great, practical book guaranteed to get children to engage in play based activities to improve their communication skills by using LEGO/other building blocks. The book is structured into chapters focusing on the different parts of language and communication with fun activities to support the targeted area and suitable for all ages and abilities." Pip St. John, Independent specialist teacher consultant SLCN, Afasic News

"I like the fact that the intention is for the book to be very practical. It's exactly what time pressed teachers need. The theory aspect is useful to set the work in context and help non specialists understand why they are doing what they are. Planning underpins successful interventions so the ideas for planning will be invaluable. The included resources will save staff having to invent their own. I think the reference to cross curricular links is useful and I am especially pleased to see that Yes I can see a huge demand for this book. It would be used as a practical resource for teachers and support staff and families. Numeracy skills are included too." - Joanna Clayton, SENCO, Mainstream school

"A fantastic resource that will open up the potential for this approach impacting on childrens learning not just playing with (LEGO)!!" Jeni Barnacle, Educational Nurture Consultant
