Outreach - Intensive Oral Language Programs

untitled-14 (Copy)

The Words, Grammar & Fun program is regularly updated to align with evidence-based research to improve student outcomes in the areas of semantics and grammar. Both phases of the program continue to be implemented in schools across the Peel, South West and East Kimberley regions with significant positive results.

Schools adopting the program are supported by the PLDS SSLS team, through a combination of professional learning webinars (on demand and live), activity and assessment demonstration videos, and consultation, to assess students, collate and analyse data and conduct rotational intervention groups.
