Do you see what I see? The @HPESpeech team is putting together a new program to help students use language for a variety of purposes, such as commenting on what they can see! This program uses pictures and real life objects to encourage language development. #Language #AAC

ALT AAC Best practice Set up the environment for AAC Communication happens all day. Be sure AAC is easy to access. Keep AAC in arm’s reach Wear AAC on straps or lanyards Make sure electronic AAC is charged and on Print paper-based versions of the AAC Attach paper-based AAC in everyday locations Don’t ever take or put AAC away An image of an iPad AAC grid on a strap with www dot assistiveware dot com in the lower left column
Keep an 👀out @HPEschools, a copy of this book is coming your way. The WHY? To help promote understanding and inclusion for the many students in our schools who use alternative forms of communication to share their needs and awesome ideas!

The speech and language team is onto a second round of schools for the "Grade 2 Oral Narrative Program". Here students are taking turns re-telling a story to each other and giving feedback on the parts of the story they included! @HPEschools
Thank you @HPEDSB_POW for sharing this photo. Can you see what we see? This student has been given the chance to explore his communication device. Look at the connections he made while navigating folders! Thank you for your dedication & keeping AAC out and available! @HPEschools

We have had a wonderful start to the year sharing our oral narrative program with many primary classrooms in @HPEschools. Our WHY? Story-telling promotes brain development, imagination, language and emotion. Being a good story-telling can also strengthen social relationships.
