Our multimodal communicators deserve more than just standardized test evaluations.

What areas is your student successful? What is their preferred method of communication? Are there gaps in the types of words and functions that the child uses?

What about:
- various means of communication
- various functions of communication
- various types of speech for functional communication
- observational notes
- interview from teachers and parents

Introducing AAC can feel overwhelming sometimes πŸ€·β€β™€οΈIf this is you, let your team know. When communcation partners are successful with implementing AAC, it has direct positive impact on the child. Therefore, your team will want to make sure you feel supported!

I'm here to reassure you that you can take the pressure off! Just as SLPs don't expect their clients to be 100% competent with AAC when first introducing it, we are not going to expect communication partners to be 100% competent either.

How to be successful when AAC is first introduced?

🫢 Allow yourself time to scan. If you don't find the icon right away, it's okay! Keep looking, take your time. This will also help your child understand that it's okay to take a bit longer to scan if it means their message will be communicated

🫢 Model, model, model. The more you model, the stronger your motor plan gets

🫢 No need for grammatical sentences. We are just starting out with AAC. The goal is communication!

🫢 Ask questions and ask for help. Talk with your SLP or find an SLP who can help you with your questions

The R sound is HARD!

Not only is it difficult to see how it is formed, but there are several variations of the R sound since it is influenced by vowels and the position in the word.

❓Some FAQs about the R sound:

1. When should we start thinking about improving the R sound?
- 5 years old

2. My child is older than 5 years old. Is it too late to work on this sound?
- Absolutely not. We will want to consider your child's motivation to improve their R sound to determine if progress looks attainable
