My Students
Many of my Speech Therapy students are special-needs students within several classrooms. Many of them are children with autism who often have limited verbal skills or are non-verbal children, but they have so much they would love to tell us!
My Project
Many of my Speech Therapy students are children with autism who are often non-verbal, but they have so much they would love to tell us! A picture exchange system is a proven way to increase communication, decrease negative behaviors and help each student be successful in the school. Picture exchanges and visual picture schedules help students communicate with both adults and their peers. Individual communication books can be customized to be certain the special needs of each student is met.
Communication is a very powerful tool that each child deserves!
I have made my own communication books in the past from old notebooks, pictures and velcro. However, those homemade books fall apart easy and often do not make to through the school year. An actual communication book that is designed for the purpose of communicating with others would be both time-saving and helpful for those students that have limited ways to communicate. These books can be used a both school and at home, because using communication skills across all environments is the key to improving those skills!
More than half of students from low‑income households
