Opposites
The "Opposite Is" prompt
Opposites is such an important basic concept for children - all children. It is especially important for children with social communication delays.
Learning opposites has been shown to improve children's ability to communicate and adds greater detail in their language. The ability to contrast two objects as a comparison, such as the beautiful prince or princess and the ugly witch, can help improve their comprehension of certain concepts.
