Expressive Vocabulary & Needs Communication
English & Pre-Literacy Foundations
Your child can speak in full, simple sentences (3 to 5 words) to express their thoughts, ask questions, tell a simple story, and make their immediate physical needs known to adults.
In real life
Your child brings you an empty cup and says, "Want more water," or points out the window and calls, "Look, a big dog!"
Ages are the anchor. Grade names are Ivy Waters stage labels for this framework, not a claim about any national school system.
