Introducing AAC (Augmentative Alternative Communication) to the Classroom
Target Audience: Primary Teachers and SNA's - 90 minute webinar
A recording will be shared with all registrants for a period of 4 weeks after the event. It will automatically delete then. All attendees will receive a certificate of attendance.
In this webinar, we will discuss the move away from using PECS, why a robust AAC is so important, and how children learn the language of AAC. We will explore the power of core words for our neurodivergent learners and how to customise AAC software to get the most out of it. You will gain practical strategies & tips that you can walk away with and examples for setting meaningful goals for your AAC user. You will also be provided with printable handouts for the classroom.
