Great for Independent Work Station    Core Suggestions Suggestions for using core vocabulary communications boards/ AAC Devices: 1) It’s okay to be slow! Your students will need the extra time to find icons and follow your models, so going slow is only beneficial! 2) Model, model, model. Students learn by watching you use the core board/ device and hearing you speak the words. If your student is hesitant about touching the board at first, then for now you can settle for letting them attend to you using the board. This can be a nice introduction to the idea that the boards are there for communication. 3) You are NOT limited to only using the words “stop” and ‘go.” These words should be the focus of the next two weeks, but feel free to be modeling words and phrases as appropriate in all settings. Also, when you are modeling use of the board you do not need to touch an icon for every single word that you say. For example, you may tell a student “Look at your work,” but the only icon you touch might be “look.”  4) Everybody should be on board. All staff members who interact with the students should get familiar using the core board. This is now a way that we can all communicate with each other.

The AAC Handbook and Toolkit is a great resource for educators who want to ensure the entire team (parents, teachers, support staff, etc.) has the knowledge and resources necessary for implementing and teaching AAC.   My love of AAC began years ago, when I worked with my first AAC client fresh out of school- an amazing girl with Cerebral Palsy who opened my eyes up to the world of AAC. Along the way I've learned that many of us, no matter how great our intentions are, struggle to implement AAC in a way that works for students & their teams.  My passion and goal is to make AAC implementation more straight-forward (and more enjoyable because AAC is so dang necessary)! This AAC handbook gives you the information you need to get the whole team (teacher, SLP, professionals, paraprofessionals) on board with current AAC strategies.  This resources includes three sections as follows: AAC Training Handbook  AAC Toolkit  the visuals and materials you need to embed AAC naturally throughout the day.  + Video Instruction for each material to ensure the team knows how to implement each strategy effectively.  AAC Data Sheets  AAC Participation Plan   As a licensed SLP, I've had a lot of experience with AAC.  I've witnessed, many times over, that AAC success hinges on one very important factor: consistency. AAC users need and deserve consistent exposure to communication and modeling.  To get this consistency, they need all important members of their life on board with their communication system.  It's no secret that many educational teams struggle with AAC consistency.  Do I believe that this happens because teams don't care or put in the effort?  No.  I believe it happens because teams need more support. A handbook can help people learn the basic skills that they need.  (And that's why I wrote one!)   But I don't believe in stopping at a handbook. I believe in supporting teachers and educational professionals in incorporating AAC into classrooms in a way that is simple, cohesive, and natural.  So, enter the AAC in the Toolkit. This kit delivers a plethora of materials to get you started with ease.  Because your team doesn't just need AAC info dumped in your laps- - - You all need practical ways to help you implement what you've learned. This resource also includes data sheets, classroom visuals, Google Slides access to edit the icons, core vocabulary boards, clear directions for modeling, AAC research citations, staff handouts, and so much more! This packet does not include information about AAC assessment (which is really a separate training that is valuable to seek out).  It is also important to note that this product may be used with any type of AAC.  It will not give any device-specific information. If you have any questions about this packet, please email me at krystie@adapted4specialed.com and I'll get back to you as soon as possible.   Spanish parent handbook is included.  ___________________________________ Copyright © AdaptEd 4 Special Ed Permission to copy for single classroom use only.

 This set of play companions will help you to teach your students to engage in play in a natural and fun atmosphere.  Many of our students benefit from visuals, so why not use visuals to teach play skills?!?  That’s the idea behind this visual companion set.  An adult models the play task by using a visual support that is carefully disguised as part of the play  (Doctor’s notes, Parent’s To-Do List, etc).  When it’s the student’s turn they have the same visual support available to them.  They simply check off the tasks as they go! Visual supports mean less prompting and more INDEPENDENCE!  Oh, and the visual supports are also paired with core vocabulary phrases appropriate for each play task.  Let’s get them talking!  Let’s get them playing! We can all agree that teaching play skills is SOOO important.  But why does it have to be so hard?  Well . . . NOW IT DOESN’T have to be!!!  Details 50 Page PDF Download Doctor Play:  Use the “Doctor’s Notes” and a toy doctor kit to perform “check ups” on peers. Pet Play: Choose a pet and take care of all its basic needs with the “Pet Owner’s To-Do List”. Restaurant Play: Take orders from peers and serve up meals with the “Waiter’s Notes” and menu. Train Play: Use language to set up a train track and direct traffic. Baby Play: Use the Parent’s “To-Do List” to take care of baby’s basic needs.  This set also includes BONUS scripts for lunch and recess times!  Break times are fantastic learning opportunities! Get your students using functional communication and core vocabulary during social moments.
