Intervention to facilitate Narrative Development

Focusing on narrative skill as essential for academic success, this research explores a novel hybrid intervention aimed at enhancing children's narrative development in three areas: linguistic complexity, evaluative information, and story grammar. Involving thirty children with an average age of 4.5 years, the study compared an intervention group of fifteen with a closely matched control group. Over six weeks, the intervention group participated in twelve 30-minute sessions, resulting in significant improvements in narrative tasks, including better information recall and more complex sentence usage.
