  • (L269) Would you please… ? A Scripted Indirect Request Language Workout

    $5.99 including GST

    Between the ages of 36 to 42 months, most typically developing kids start to replace direct requests (like “Give me!”) with indirect requests (like “Can I have..?” or “Would you please…?”). No one knows for sure why we do this – it’s certainly not the most efficient way to ask for things. But so-called “indirect speech” has been studied by linguists, philosophers and speech pathologists for decades (e.g. Grice, 1975; Lakoff, 1973).

    Most children pick up indirect request-making skills by around 3 1/2 years of age by watching others. But some students (especially many children with communication difficulties) need some help.

    In this resource, we focus on “Would you please…?” as an indirect way to ask for things.

    Many children with developmental language disorders have difficulty asking questions. So too, do many children learning English as a second language. Not being able to ask questions can reduce a child’s confidence, independence and even curiosity as they wait for others to help them.

    Knowing how to ask “do you” questions helps build confidence in the classroom and in the playground.

    In this Low Prep “Do you…?” question activity pack, we follow the adventures of Viv the Pirate. As children ask Viv various “Do you…?” questions about her likes, needs, wants, favourite activities and friends, children win printable pirate coins to put on their game board.
