Comment by Stacy Ellis: The students I work with all communicate in different manners.  Most of the kids I work with have some ability to use sign, to imitate spoken word and to use PCS to request.  A few of the students I work with use spoken language without any prompts.  Many of the students only communicate to get their needs and wants met across a variety of different situations and activities.  Few use communication to comment.

 


 

 

 

1.  Could this activity have been improved upon?

2.  What type of supports would you implement to increase the opportunities for communication?
