Early Childhood Development Intervention Plan

Language acquisition and cognitive development are complex processes that are crucial components of early childhood development. As you’ve learned throughout this course there are many frameworks that support cognitive and language development in children from birth to age 3. Implementing early intervention services during this time is critical. Current research and referral strategies must be understood so that each and every child can be given high-quality language and cognitive experiences. For this assignment, imagine that you are a professional in an early childhood education program and you have identified a child with a language acquisition or a cognitive developmental delay or disorder from the video. You have been asked to develop a language acquisition or cognitive development intervention plan for this child with exceptionalities. For this assignment, you will be utilizing the rough draft that you created in Week 3.
