About this event
This training is recommended for family members, carers and workers who need to use Makaton at home and in their work and have already completed level 1, 2 and 3 training.
This is an essential part of the entry criteria for Makaton Tutor Training.
This is a practical follow-up final core vocabulary workshop. You'll learn:
- signs and symbols from the Core Vocabulary, stages 7 and 8
- numbers
- maths concepts
- time
- days
- weather
- party and music
- more prepositions
- why and because
- methods for implementing and using Makaton
Participants receive a manual that includes the signs and symbols learnt.
Email CTStraining@stockport.nhs.uk to book a place.
Spaces are limited so they will be allocated on a first come, first served basis.
By accepting your place, you also confirm acceptance that information sent to a personal non NHS email account may not be secure and that it is acceptable that the tutor uses email as a way to keep in contact with you.
