Either/Or – presents abstract concepts in a lively and meaningful way to promote understanding and use of new vocabulary. It is therefore ideal for use in clinic, home or school.
Most children acquire concepts as part of their normal language development but some will require additional support to assist their understanding and use of concept words. This may be due to a variety of reasons, such as a language delay or disorder, general developmental delay or because the child has English as an additional language.
All concepts are best introduced in ‘real life’ situations – use the words ‘either’ and ‘or’ during daily routines. For example, while colouring pictures: ‘The monster can have either a blue tail … or a red tail. What do you think?’ Or choosing a book: ‘We could read either the book about the tiger … or the one about the bear.’
