I provide speech and language services to students who are diagnosed with autism and other developmental disabilities and health impairments. These students range from using verbal language, augmentative devices, sign language and gestural cues to communicate and have low cognitive abilities. I provide speech and language services to better their communication abilities throughout all areas of their lives including school, home and community environments. It is a very rewarding field and I love to see my students succeed in many ways.
My Project
I can use these materials in many ways throughout the school day and can provide engaging activities for these students. There are many ideas and concepts that are to be taught in an educational setting and materials need to be adapted to ensure that the students retain the necessary information.
These materials that I have chosen have will help my students communicate their wants and needs across many environments and participate in engaging activities.
I can use them in hopes that the students will encompass all the necessary information they are required to learn within their academic curriculum as well as express functional communication.
