Children with communication needs may:
-have speech that is difficult to understand
-struggle to say words or sentences
-not understand words that are being used, or the instructions they hear
- have difficulties knowing how to talk and listen to others in conversation
This can affect behavioural social and emotional development because:
-Children and practitioners may have trouble understanding what the child is trying to say. We may not be able to help them with any problems they may have or explain something they may not understand.
-The child will have trouble conveying points to people and asking for help; they may try to express their frustration in less positive ways.
-If they have trouble understanding the words others say then they will not behave as practitioners’ request of them, or play harmoniously with other children.
-Social development will slow when children cannot hold a conversation or play together.
Hope that helps :)
