Here and There “2 Words for 2 Weeks,” a series of instructional activities and suggestions for using target core vocabulary words with our students. Why “here” and “there”? These words are powerful for our students because here/ there can be used for many communicative functions.  Includes This packet is HUGE! It provides a full 2 weeks of instructional materials if you are completing tasks daily. With CORE language the focus is on getting students to truly develop their language, by understanding the words and how they are used across multiple settings and environments.  Everything you need to get started is included in this packet! :) Happy teaching!  Core Vocabulary Language Books Come Here! (12 pages) - this adorable book has your students finding dogs making not the best choices, their job is to tell the dog to "Come here!" before he creates more of a mess!  Where is it? Here it is? Find the Elf (22 Pages)- Your students can partner up with this book having one of them practice reading/ asking the question "Where is it?" while the other finds the elf and says "Here it is." Look There Fairy (25 pages) Another look and find book, but this time your student will practice saying "Look there" to direct another person's attention to the location of a fairy hidden in the images. I Want to go... There (13 pages) Your student will be able to express their desire by choosing a location they'd rather go. The question is asked, "Where do you want to go," and they can respond with, "I want to go there" and indicate their choice. The later pages in the book show something/ someone and 2 habitats, your student will indicate where it should be. (ex: a baby: in a crib or on a rollercoaster)  Here/ There Game (13 Pages)  Where does it go? Practice putting everyday household items away with this Here/ There Mat Game. Students draw a card and place it on the mat where it belongs. (ex: plate goes in the kitchen). When they place it down they should say "here" or "there." 11 Word Work No Prep Pages  Information about CORE language, and where to find support to begin the process of going CORE with your students.  This packet is based on a selection of core vocabulary, or the highest frequency words in speech and writing. Remarkably, these seemingly simple words make up roughly 80% of what we say!  They can be used and combined for a full variety of communicative functions (such as initiation, termination, commenting, requesting, asking, interjecting and directing others). Teaching core vocabulary allows students the chance to do more than just get their needs and wants met, but to develop authentic language skills!  Modeling and repetition are important parts of core vocabulary learning and instruction.  You may notice that some products contain repetitive refrains or frequent repetitions of the same core words.  This is done with the intent of getting the most repetition and practice possible while still having fun! 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.

When you teach your students CORE vocabulary, you're giving them so much more than just a few words.  You're giving them the words they need to start a conversation, to comment to a friend, or to ask for something they want, or interject into a conversation. Simply put, you're giving them the words they need to communicate. Instead of teaching your student to say- "Apple...Apple...Apple" by handing them a laminated picture of an apple. They'll be able to say- "want more" or point and say "there" to indicate where their snack is. Core words are the words we all use to communicate with each other every day. Give your students the words they need to develop true language skills, don't hold them back to simply requesting items that are in their immediate vicinity. Are you ready for the best part? Teaching core words are... way easier than picture exchange systems! No more printing/ cutting/ laminating the same set of nouns, only to have them destroyed or lost in a few days. If you're teaching non-verbal students you can use a speech generating device or the low tech version- core boards (we've supplied you with a link if you don't already have one) and you just print and laminate, that's it, everything they need is just on one page, and no more moving pieces to lose, it's amazing! We hope you're ready to switch over, and Go CORE. This packet has everything you need to get started! This packet is HUGE!  It provides a plethora of resources to your students engaged and communicating. With CORE language the focus is on getting students to truly develop their language, by understanding the words and how they are used in conversation.Get started with focus word sets.

When learning gets stopped in its tracks, something is in the way. Our newest handbook, When Learning Hits the Wall, helps educators make sense of those moments—when a student shuts down, rushes through work, or simply disengages—and respond with clarity instead of guesswork, even when they’ve already tried “everything.” It focuses on helping identify what system is breaking down in the moment and what needs to change so learning can resume. The book introduces a practical, research-grounded, barrier-based framework for matching support to real barriers—while keeping learning goals intact. Choose Digital, Print, or Both to access When Learning Hits the Wall. How This Book Supports Educators, Teams, and Families Better understand why learning breaks down in the moment Respond to shutdowns, rushing, and disengagement with clarity Match support to what’s blocking access Keep learning goals intact while restoring access to learning Who this is for (and who it’s not) Teachers in inclusive classrooms who need practical, in-the-moment ways to respond when students shut down, freeze, rush through work, or disengage Educators asked to “differentiate” or “provide accommodations” without a clear framework for deciding what actually needs to change Teachers supporting twice-exceptional, undiagnosed, or inconsistently accessing learners, where needs shift depending on task, pace, or environment School leaders and instructional coaches working to improve consistency and accuracy in support decisions across classrooms IEP and problem-solving teams frustrated by vague accommodations (like “preferential seating” or “extra time”) that don’t reliably restore access Teams seeking clarity without increasing documentation or compliance burden Parents and caregivers trying to understand why supports aren’t working—not just what supports are being used What’s inside This book provides a clear, repeatable way to understand why learning breaks down—and how to restore access when it does. First: A practical framework for identifying learning breakdownsLearn how to better identify what’s actually getting in the way when a student freezes, shuts down, rushes, or disengages. Then: A shared language for understanding barriersClarifies the difference between task demands, domains, hidden barriers, and access conditions—so decisions stay focused and consistent. At the core: The six hidden barriers that drive most learning strugglesClear explanations of processing speed, working memory, task initiation, attention shifting, organization & sequencing, and regulation load—with real classroom examples. Tools for identifying barriers in the momentQuick scans, flowcharts, and observation prompts designed to support real-time decisions, not after-the-fact analysis. Guidance for matching support to the barrier—not the behaviorLearn when accommodations restore access, when modifications are appropriate, and why good intentions sometimes lead to the wrong support. Barrier-based accommodation examples that actually generalizePractical ways to adjust pace, language, structure, and conditions so students can engage with the same learning goals. Disability snapshots as starting points—not conclusionsADHD, autism, dyslexia, DLD, mental health, intellectual disability, trauma, and TBI—included to support observation and context, not to prescribe support. Language that protects dignity and restores accessScripts and framing that help students re-enter learning without increasing pressure, shame, or confusion. This book is designed to be used flexibly—read cover to cover, referenced during planning, or pulled out in the middle of a tough moment when learning hits the wall.
