Description
This teacher guide helps you recognize and support the many ways children share messages, including speech, gestures, signs, pictures, writing, and augmentative and alternative communication (AAC). Use the examples and partner or small-group activities during group time, play, and everyday classroom routines. Children practise noticing and using communication methods that fit their preferences, while educators learn to welcome every response without insisting on speech. Adapt the activities to each child’s communication tools and established supports.
