Targeting yes/no questions 😅
I don’t know about you, but this was always one of the first goals for my GLP clients before I knew about GLP’s.
Let me tell you I always hated working on this because it never clicked. Now I know why 💡
Those kids were not ready to answer a question because they were still in stage one and stage two♥️
When your child is in stage 1 or 2 of gestalt language development, “yes” and “no” aren’t yet flexible words-they’re part of scripts.🗣️
That’s why targeting yes/no questions too early doesn’t feel right. They’ve learned “yes” and “no” as part of whole chunks, not as separate words.
Before they can truly mean “yes” or “no,” they need to build a strong base of flexible phrases.
More phrases → more meaning → eventually, true “yes” and “no.” 💬✨
