Description
Get ready to build functional language with non-verbal, minimally verbal, echolalic, and verbal students with Autism, language delay, or special needs!
Core vocabulary makes up about 80% of the words that we say and can be used in a variety of environments to communicate and respond quickly and effectively. Words such as greetings “hi” and “bye”, requests “want” and “more”, and responses “yes” and “no” are just some examples of these important concepts.
We have spent years developing a program that truly encourages the use of functional language throughout the day and pushes our "team" to go BEYOND REQUESTING.
This activity set targets one Core vocabulary word which can be used alone or as part of a complete Core word curriculum with all of our other sets!
The Complete Core Word Activity Set includes the following components for the target word "SEE":
*Editable Parent Introduction Letter: Welcome families to Core City, a place where functional language is all around us!
*Map and Map Key: This is an overview of the components of a complete Core word activity set. The team of educators, related service providers and families will understand how we are going to build this city together!
*Chatter Book: These interactive books explain the different situations that each word can be used throughout the day. Children will practice the word multiple times throughout the book by placing a picture symbol on each page.
*Visual Supports: Picture symbols of each word can be placed all around the environment. You will be provided with the visuals to use as door signs and lanyard necklaces.
*Modified Core Communication Board: This board is modified to include only the target word in the same location as a full complete core 30 board. This aids in the development of motor planning and provides the foundation for the use of an expanded communication board.
FREE: Core 27 Board
Leveled Core Language Boards
*Sensory Search Activity: Expose students to the target word again and again with a variety of stimulating activities.
*Writing: Children will be exposed to the target word again and again while working on their writing skills using 19 pages of leveled writing activities. This includes a set with yellow tracing to be used for color printers AND a set with gray tracing to be used with black and white printers.
*Keyboard: Practice identifying letters and sounds, following directions, and typing on a keyboard that displays only the letters of the target word. Find each letter of the word in the correct sequence to spell the word. This board can be laminated or sent home to practice again and again!
*Data: Document student progress by using this thorough data sheet to monitor 8 levels of prompting.
*Home Carry-over Activities: Students will take a trip home in the CORE CAB! Parents will be provided with a variety of suggested activities to help work on each word in their own home.
*Adapted Literacy Component:
Work on the concept of the target word through repetitive exposure throughout a structured literacy activity using the book “Brown Bear Brown Bear What Do You See?" by Eric Carle.
This includes a Color-coded Communication Board AND Visuals to Adapt Your Book. A second copy of the visuals can be printed to have students interact and match pictures while reading the book.
The communication board can be used with students who are expanding language by combining core and fringe words, responding to questions, developing sentence structure and more!
(This is a companion to the book. You will need to purchase the book separately.)

This was absolutely perfect for my core word lesson of the week!
Awesome resource to use with my preschoolers and staff for core word of the week!
Thank you I have used with my students and they really enjoyed it!
Very helpful!
Love these units.
My students love using these to learn new words. I love the fact that they always follow the same format, so my students know exactly what is expected of them. They can be used in so many ways!
The whole Core City series has been great for my newer AAC users. I have purchased many of the activity sets.
- I love the leveled core boards so vocabulary can be introduced in a systematic way.
- The storybook suggestions for targeting certain core words/phrases are very helpful.
- The Chatter Books always go over well. Students like the velcro pieces and paraprofessionals like to have something concrete to build core vocabulary.
- I like the parent letters to keep families informed and involved.
I loved using this to teach core vocab!
