The Hardy Boys: The Tower Treasure — AAC Symbol-Supported Accessible Novel for Complex Communicators The Hardy Boys: The Tower Treasure — AAC Symbol-Supported Accessible Novel for Complex Communicators
... $59.97 USD
AAC-Adapted Chapter Book Hardy Boys: The Tower Treasure — Fully Adapted for AAC Users Give AAC users the experience of a real mystery novel. This AAC-adapted edition of The Hardy Boys: The Tower Treasure keeps the full mystery plot, rewritten in clear, AAC-friendly language. Supported text, visuals, and AAC-smart supports make it possible for complex communicators to follow, discuss, and enjoy the story from start to finish. Created by an AAC specialist SLP, this resource is built for students who need significant language, visual, and communication supports—but still deserve age-respectful chapter books. 17 fully adapted chapters Pre-reading and comprehension questions  3 differentiated journal formats Works with any AAC system Experience the entire Hardy Boys mystery, for complex communicators. Run predictable, chapter-by-chapter lessons with minimal prep. Match icons to any AAC system so students can respond using the language they know. Built for real AAC classrooms What This Resource Makes Possible Let AAC users engage with a chapter book with age-appropriate story.  Use a consistent routine: pre-reading → story → engagement → journal. Give students multiple ways to respond: AAC, pointing, partner-assisted scanning, writing, and more. Facilitate rich comprehension discussions using AAC-friendly WH questions and visuals. Support mixed-ability groups where everyone can access the same story at their own level. Build stamina, background knowledge, and narrative understanding over time. Why This Chapter Book Is Different Most AAC “books” are short, babyish. Older students quickly recognize that their materials don’t match what their peers are reading—and they disengage. This resource allows students to experience the fun mystery plot of The Tower Treasure while adapting the language, visuals, and response options for AAC users. Students aren’t focused on the supports—they’re focused on the story. Everything is designed so that complex communicators can: Follow the plot from chapter to chapter Use their AAC system to comment, predict, and answer WH questions Enjoy an age-respectful story with real stakes and problem-solving Chapter-by-Chapter Structure Every chapter follows the same AAC-friendly routine so students know what to expect: Pre-reading questions and visuals to preview key events and vocabulary Adapted chapter story with symbol-supported text and AAC modeling prompts Engagement & comprehension questions offered in both multiple-choice and open-ended formats Look-Back Learning: incorrect answers redirect students to the exact place in the story they need to revisit—reinforcing how strong readers look back and find evidence in the text A link to a printable journal activity with 3 differentiated options: cut & paste, fill-in-the-blank with a word bank, and independent writing Optional sensory items and tangibles suggested for each chapter to bring the story to life Plan on roughly one chapter per week for a semester-long unit—or adjust the pacing based on your group’s needs. How It Works in Real Classrooms Use this resource in whole group, small group, or 1:1 instruction: Project the Google Slides for shared reading and group discussion. Pause on text to model responses on students’ AAC systems. Use the comprehension/engagement questions as exit tickets, informal data, or guided practice. Extend learning with printable journals in 3 formats to match fine-motor and language needs. Layer in sensory extensions and tangible items for students who benefit from hands-on input. You can build a weekly “Hardy Boys day” into your schedule or weave chapters into your existing literacy block. Works with Any AAC System This resource includes generic, non-proprietary AAC icons so you can use it as-is right away.If you prefer, the icon placeholders are fully editable, allowing you to swap in icons from the AAC systems your students already use — as long as you have legal access to those symbol sets. You can match your classroom’s AAC layouts, including systems such as: LAMP Words for Life TouchChat TD Snap Proloquo Unity PODD CoughDrop Custom or district-created systems Customizing the icons ensures questions, answers, and story language mirror the layout students already know, which reduces cognitive load and increases independence. Age-Respectful Literacy for Grades 3–12 The content is designed for older elementary through high school AAC users: Mystery, danger, and problem-solving—not “little kid” plots Characters and situations that feel appropriate for roughly ages 8–18 Supports that protect student dignity while making the text accessible Mixed-age classrooms and programs can read the same story together while you adjust questions, response formats, and supports for each student. What You Get Ready-to-Use Digital Resource Fully adapted 17-chapter novel of The Tower Treasure, written in AAC-friendly, core-word-rich language. Google Slides lessons for each chapter, including pre-reading, adapted story, visuals, vocabulary, and comprehension. Printable student journals with 3 response options per chapter: cut & paste, fill-in-the-blank with word bank, and independent writing. Look-Back Learning so students are guided back to the story when they miss a question, modeling evidence-based reading. Editable AAC icons to align visuals with your students’ AAC systems. Perfect for AAC-focused SLPs, special education teachers, inclusion teams, AT/AAC specialists, paraprofessionals, and families supporting AAC users in grades 3–12. AAC users shouldn’t be stuck with baby books while their peers move on to real stories. Hardy Boys: The Tower Treasure — Fully Adapted for AAC Users gives your students the chapter-book experience they’ve always deserved: rich story, clear supports, and true accessibility across all 17 chapters.

Core Word Builder Curriculum: Sets 1–3 (60 Weeks of Lessons) AAC Word Builders: Set 3
... $149.00 USD $179.97 USD
Unlock communication with a full year of structured, ready-to-use AAC lessons—created by Meg Mott, M.S., CCC-SLP, AdaptEd’s resident SLP and AAC specialist. Why Core Words Matter Did you know that just 80 words make up about half of the English we use every day? These first words are the foundation of connection—helping students share what they want, need, and feel. But for many students, reaching those first words can feel overwhelming. Without structured support, communication stays locked behind frustration. That’s why we developed the AAC Core Word Builder Collection—a complete, systematic program that gives you 60 weeks of lessons designed to turn core vocabulary into real, meaningful communication. What Makes This Different This isn’t just a stack of flashcards. Each week’s lesson is built to engage students in multiple ways: 🎲 Introductory Games → fun, low-pressure practice that makes new words stick 📖 Animated Adapted Books → real images + movement to hold attention 🕺 Movement Breaks → regulation built in, so students stay engaged and focused 🎬 Bonus Activities → songs, videos, and creative projects to deepen learning 👩👩👧 Parent Handouts → carryover at home to strengthen generalization 📝 Homework → simple reinforcement that extends progress across settings That means you’re not just teaching words—you’re giving students the tools to use them in authentic conversations, across environments. What’s Inside: 60 Weeks of Lessons The collection is divided into 3 sets, each introducing 20 high-frequency, functional words. Together, they provide a full year of systematic instruction. Weeks 1–20 (Set 1 Core Words)Go · Turn · Eat · Come · Put · Help · Not/Don’t · Like · Open · Want · All Done · More · What? · I/You · On · Off · Drink Weeks 21–40 (Set 2 Core Words)Stop · Get · Look/See · Up · Good · Make · Work · In · Who · Read · Different · Bad · Hear/Listen · Take · Do · Again · Wait · Happy · Sick · Out Weeks 41–60 (Set 3 Core Words)All · Little · Where · Big · Silly · Watch · Sad · Some · Down · Dirty · Clean · Feel · Give · Fast · Slow · That · When · Ready · Away · All Gone Back-to-School Special 🎒 For a limited time, you can get the Complete AAC Core Word Builder Collection—60 weeks of structured, research-based lessons—for just $149 (save $30). That’s everything you need to start the year strong with a full school year (and more) of engaging, expert-designed AAC instruction. Because when core words are taught in context, they don’t just stay on a page—they unlock the world.
