A short instructional YouTube video by Ming @ Agents of Speech offering practical steps for teaching children to recount events. Emphasizes prerequisites (parents model telling stories, sequencing events, and using connectives), introduces story grammar and story elements—particularly the importance of stating the setting first—and mentions a practical "phone method" for prompting children and follow-up questions to elicit recounts.
Chapters
Because you've given them a framework, given them how to think, how to recall things, then would make sense. Because a lot of times I see parents are like, they don't know how to do this thing. Oh, no. It's like 0 and 1. They don't think about the middle steps. So think about the middle steps. This is how we taught parents to help children recount the day and has been working. You can try it yourself, but remember the prerequisites. All right. Do those first tell stories, put things in sequences, have connectives in their speech. Right. Can tell the story with story grammar and story elements. You can search that online. Story grammar, speech therapy. The most important one is the setting. The very first thing that they say. Right. In the morning, George and Michael went to the club and got some pop sodas. So once they match that, you can start using the phone method and teach them how what happened during the weekend when you're with them? All right. And then you can start asking those questions.
