Our students need an iPad as a tool of technology to help them communicate their wants and needs. The implementation of an iPad in these students' lives is a life changing experience. Language acquisition through motor planning (LAMP) is an app developed to use on an iPad, it provides a means of learning language through a multi-modality approach. It is great because the application is designed to facilitate communication the closest way to the way language is developed for the typically developing children. It also helps decrease our students' level of frustration as well as problematic behaviors. In addition, it was noted that as communication skills improved, social engagement increased, and some individuals exhibited increased verbal speech. Please help us reach our goal and give these children a voice and a chance to succeed in our community.
