AAC Core Vocabulary of the Week - GO & STOP
core words: -GO & STOP Focusing on a few words per week helps students, especially beginning communicators who are using AAC, to acquire new vocabulary. I make these for classroom staff and families who need ideas of ways to incorporate it throughout the day. Varying the context and keeping motivation high is absolutely essential. I send these home and out to classroom staff at the beginning of the week to help give ideas. Then I post them around the classroom too and I encourage teachers and

Flyer/Handout for Families: MEDICAL ID
This flyer can be sent home in backpacks or emailed as an attachment to families of students with special needs. Having a medical ID bracelet (or necklace/shoe tag etc.) is an important emergency safety precaution for both speaking and non-speaking students of all ages. Providing safety information like name and phone number is obviously very important which is why it's on nearly every checklist of the communication basics. However, it seems such a waste of time and "memory space" drilling int

Talking About Grief & Loss with AAC Users (LAMP WFL) Death of Family Member
When teaching vocabulary and concepts, we prioritize the most functional and frequently used, which means we might not cover certain topics like grief, death, and loss if they don't apply to our students (especially if we have bigger fish to fry at the moment, like "bathroom," "stop," and "play.") However, when we find out that a student's family member has suddenly died, we need to ensure our students have the words they need to express themselves. Additionally, our students often don't engage

AAC Parent / Family / Caregiver Training
This training was originally designed for teachers and classroom staff and was adapted for parents, families, and caregivers, so it is somewhat in depth for families that can handle it but slides can be deleted or skipped to be more brief for families that need it. The training does not focus on one system in particular, but does emphasize the importance of core vocabulary, and uses LAMP and TouchChat as examples. Includes short videos, and examples hyperlinked to YouTube. Topics covered: - Cor

Social Communication Checklist/Visual - Appropriately Terminating Conversation
This checklist is for students who abruptly turn and leave social interactions. It targets remaining oriented and attentive until the communicative partner is finished speaking, then giving a wrap-up phrase before saying goodbye.
This is ideal for quick visits around the school to different staff and peers, have a few turns of conversation, then move on appropriately. It gets in a lot of practice terminating appropriately and also keeps social interactions short and sweet so students at this l

Social Narrative - Family Members/Parents Who Get Sick/In The Hospital
When a parent or family member/caregiver of a student gets sick or hospitalized it can be very disruptive to that student. It is particularly difficult for special needs students who rely more heavily on caregivers and routines, and are less able to communicate their emotions, understand what is happening, or ask questions.
This social story broadly covers family members getting sick or going to the hospital, how that might cause change, what is expected of the student, how that might feel, an

Simple Structured Conversation Activity - Asking and Telling
This structured activity really helped my students who was having trouble using even pre-written conversation questions or sentence starters spontaneously. I used this activity as a starting point. It also was helpful to send home so family could practice as well. There are two versions of each page - one with visuals and one without so new topics (e.g. places, favorites, etc.) can be used.

Additional biographical information
I'm passionate about working with individuals with special needs, particularly ASD and AAC users. There is no such thing as too old for AAC, or language/cognitive pre-requisites for high-tech AAC. Working in the special education field, so often we need materials and activities that are so specific we have to make them ourselves. We spend so much time and effort on them. What if even one other person found it helpful? That would be amazing! If we all shared for free, the world would be a better place for us as professionals and more importantly, for our students!
