How much time does NELI Preschool take to deliver?
NELI Preschool is delivered over 20 weeks and combines language enrichment for all children with additional targeted intervention for children with weaker language skills.
- Whole Group Sessions: Delivered daily for 15-20 minutes. On the first day of the week, the children are introduced to the story. Subsequent sessions are focused on revisiting the story and introducing the ‘Special Words’ of the week.
- Small Group Sessions: Three 15-minute sessions per week, specifically for children selected for targeted intervention.
- Individual Sessions: One 5-minute session per week for children selected for targeted intervention.
Here is an example of a typical NELI Preschool week, which we can help you adapt to best suit your setting’s needs and children’s attendance patterns.
